    Summary

    Bilbo agreed to stay in Erebor during the winter because... well, to be entirely honest because of Thorin.

    He'd like to... he'd like a lot of things.
    But at the very least Bilbo would like to find his way back to the friendship he had with Thorin before everything got all twisted up.

    However not everyone wants to be Thorin's friend, and not everyone is happy with how Thorin has been ruling Erebor, and most importantly for Bilbo's fate; not everyone is as blind as Bilbo. Which is why certain people decide that kidnapping the King's Hobbit to teach said King a lesson is a brilliant plan indeed.

    Summary

    “Thorin Oakenshield,” Bilbo says, breathless. “I am dead, then.”

    “Aye, Master Baggins,” Thorin agrees. His face is calm and patient, more regal now that it had ever been with a crown above it. The fires that had once burned in his heart, fueling his prides and passions, his stubbornness and steadfastness, still blaze in his voice. “You are dead.”

    There are things that didn't get said when they should have been. Bilbo's been waiting a lifetime to say them.

    Summary

    Five years after the War of the Ring, rumors have been spread all around Middle-Earth that the lords of Aglarond and Ithilien are closer than mere friendship. Threatened by Legolas and Gimli's obvious preference for doing business with one another, the leaders of Erebor and Mirkwood turn suspicious eyes to their trading relationships.

    Infuriated by the rumors and scheming, Legolas and Gimli decide to pretend they're married in order to prove that their realms would treat fairly with others no matter what. But can they maintain the deception? Will it end their legendary friendship-- or could it lead to more?

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This engaging work in progress is a classic reworking of a classic trope. Rich with detail of the heroes' endeavors, politics and UST!

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This story captures the poignant potential of these two damaged heroes (or hero and antihero if you like) that's *there* in the best of Game of Thrones but likely to get trampled in the rush to canon finale.

    What might have been, had things gone differently, had news come sooner, when Jaime and Brienne met again at Riverrun.

    Summary

    The Valar work mysterious ways and it is not up to the Eldar to question them... unless you have to deal with reborn Fëanaro.
