    Summary

    Thorin Oakenshield wakes. The air is cold, clinging to his skin in an unpleasant way. He reaches for his sword, the memory of his defeat still fresh in his mind.

    In the distance shines the familar light of Bag End, where Bilbo Baggins is desperately trying to understand why the battlefield around him faded to the comfort of his home, the calendar mocking his attempts at making sense of the situation.

    Both of them try to navigate the violent jump back in time as best as they can, but getting in each other's way of diverting fate causes more trouble than any of them could expect. It is a lonely feat, changing the past – unless, amidst all the chaos, they manage to understand each other again.

    Summary

    “Why are you here, with me? What do you want from me?”
    Thranduil gazed for a moment at the man facing him and he tilted his face slightly. He gave a brief laugh. A sad laugh, Bard thought.
    The Elvenking placed his hands over Bard’s, taking care to touch them carefully, avoiding the wounds.
    “I have nothing to demand from you, mellon nín. You have already given so much. Far more than one would expect from any creature who lives and breathes within these lands. You have shown exemplary courage and unfailing dedication. It is more than fair that someone returns the favour.”
    *
    “You seem to forget that you have just been through some excruciatingly difficult times, Bard. You could not come out of it all unscathed. You are hurt, and I am not talking about the scars on your body but about the scars inside of you. You are going to have to accept that. You are a living being, you feel things, and you experience joy, sorrow, pain… Currently, mainly negative emotions invade you. They make you too harsh on yourself. You are truly forgetting this: moments of weakness are part of who we are. They are necessary, even if for the moment you do not understand why.”
