    Summary

    Bilba Baggins has been having trouble sleeping lately but things are starting to look up when she finally finds a moment to herself in a secluded corner on one of the quiet floors of the university library.

    It's the perfect time and place for a nap.

    Or rather, it had been perfect until she was rudely awakened from her little siesta by the sound of dozens of books crashing simultaneously to the floor all because of some bumbling oaf in the stacks.

    [Drabble-ish Bagginshield University AU in which Thorin is a borderline stalker and Bilba doesn't have time for shit.]

    Summary

    This was not a story about love or about death, not in the end, not the part that mattered. It was a story about choosing the life you wanted to live and hanging onto that, against all perils, all harms. Arwen wrapped her hands around Aragorn’s, the sword calluses on one, the ink stains on the other, her Ranger, her soldier, her king and her friend. She held on tight, kissed his brow, and thought about the rebuilding of the north wall.

    Arwen and Luthien both had been asked to choose between peace and creation; eternal light, or lighting the flame themselves. They were Prometheus, the titan descended to earth. Every death they pulled out of Arwen was worth it for the things she got to build.

    Summary

    Thorin Durinson, head of Durinson & Company, an architectural firm specializing in environmentally responsible design and restoration, focuses all his creative abilities on his work and his affection on his family and old friends. And then one grey day, a woman in a red coat literally walks into his life, and just like that, everything changes.

    Inspired by a prompt from lostunderthemountain on Oct. 11th, based on this gorgeous photoset.

    ME: Mmm, rolled up sleeves, and who are you looking at, dearie, in that last frame?

    lostunderthemountain: OH! Modern AU in New York: Thorin Durinson is the is the Head of a global company that is continually under threat from Smaug’s (cause like they differ on many opinions or something….).

    Anyway, one morning he’s getting out of a taxi outside of the company’s building when he catches sight of one Miss Bella Baggins (not that he knows her name) and instantly his world freezes…until Fili shoves him to try to get him to move…

    Title from Lord Byron's poem "She Walks in Beauty"

    Summary

    What if, when Petunia Dursley found a little boy on her front doorstep, she took him in? Not into the cupboard under the stairs, not into a twisted childhood of tarnished worth and neglect—what if she took him in?

    Petunia was jealous, selfish and vicious. We will not pretend she wasn’t. She looked at that boy on her doorstep and thought about her Dudders, barely a month older than this boy. She looked at his eyes and her stomach turned over and over. (Severus Snape saved Harry’s life for his eyes. Let’s have Petunia save it despite them).

    Let’s tell a story where Petunia Dursley found a baby boy on her doorstep and hated his eyes—she hated them. She took him in and fed him and changed him and got him his shots, and she hated his eyes up until the day she looked at the boy and saw her nephew, not her sister’s shadow. When Harry was two and Vernon Dursley bought Dudley a toy car and Harry a fast food meal with a toy with parts he could choke on Petunia packed her things and got a divorce.

    Summary

    Bilba Baggins, popular model for a premier lingerie company, isn't always entirely convinced that the perks of the job are worth the hassle. Can't she even go to the shops without being recognized?

    But Thorin Oakenshield doesn't seem to recognize her at all, even with her nearly-naked breasts forever plastered across half of London.

    That's... a very refreshing change.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins led a rather peaceful life, thank you very much, until an old acquaintance decided to turn it upside down, and he found himself agreeing to take a job that’s… let’s say not exactly up his alley, and might eventually cost him a little more than his treasured cozy lifestyle. Who would have thought tutoring a slightly menacing monarch’s more than slightly overbearing nephew could prove to be such an adventure?

    Summary

    Set in modern times, Thorin Oakenshield is the disgruntled heir to the banking conglomerate Erebor Inc that has been taken over by Mr. Smaug of DragonFire (We burn up the competition). He is in need of a code breaking burglar which he finds in the reluctant form of Beatrice Baggins. She agrees to this insane adventure as long as she can make snarky comments the whole way and be a general pain in his ass.

    Feel free to comment! I promise to respond to each!

    Also, all rights to the master Tolkien and the creative tweaks of Peter Jackson and Company. Thank you, Mr. Tolkien for all the magic you have created in our lives.

    Summary

    This is Erebor on the cusp of history.

    Thorin, son of Thráin, son of Thrór walks the battlement of the great gates of Erebor. A roaring wind comes down from the north, trees bend and creak under its force. On the gate and down in Dale, all gaze at the sky as if waiting...

    The storm passes and Smaug never comes.

    Erebor never falls. Dale never burns. Dwarves travel west in search of wealth, not sanctuary, and the Company of Thorin Oakenshield never forms. The wizard never plots (well... not precisely never...) and a perfectly respectable hobbit never hosts an unexpected party. But an adventure will be had. For the sake of an orphan, propriety will be set aside, mountains will be climbed, forests will be traversed and lakes will be sailed. A hobbit will come to The Lonely Mountain where sickness has been left to fester and grow and shadows lay waiting...
