    Summary

    A classic Hobbit fix-it fic where everyone lives.
    After surviving the journey, and then the dragon, and then the battle, Bilbo is faced with his most difficult challenge yet: getting that stubborn dwarf king Thorin Oakenshield to speak to him. Thorin nearly died in Bilbo's arms, but now it seems that the new king feels exactly the same about him as he did on the ramparts.
    Meanwhile, Thorin can't bring himself to face the poor hobbit he has so terribly mistreated. He can't bear to look into the eyes of the only one he will ever love and know that Bilbo will never forgive him for what he has done.
    But Bilbo didn't come this far to let some pigheaded dwarf send him back home without so much as a goodbye.

    Summary

    On the morning of the twenty-sixth of February in the year ninety-one of the Fourth Age, Dwalin, Son of Fundin, died.
    On the evening of the twenty sixth of April in the year two thousand nine hundred and forty-one of the Third Age, it became quickly apparent that death was only a minor inconvenience.
    Dwalin has another plan this time around. One that involves returning a certain piece of evil jewellery directly to sender before Sauron gains a foothold on Middle Earth. Maybe it’ll save a few people he cares about. Maybe he’ll get a little longer with his husband.
    And maybe, just maybe, he’s not the only one doing this a second time over.

    Split POV, plenty of Nwalin, Gigolas and Bagginshield.

    Summary

    "He’s the finest specimen of a Longbeard I’ve seen in three centuries," Bifur grunted, signing the words with a look of genuine awe.

    "It’s a problem, is what it is," Dwalin growled, crossing his massive arms as he watched the scene across the hall.

    At least five Dwarves,sons and daughters of noble houses,were currently surrounding Gimli’s table. One was offering a finely wrought silver brooch; another was reciting a poem about the durability of granite; a third was trying to catch his eye with a display of masterfully tempered daggers.

    By all accounts, Gimli should have been the proudest Dwarf in the Mountain. Instead, he looked as though he were chewing on a lemon.
    ....
    ........
    ..........
    .....
    there was a blur of movement,a whistle of wind and the distinct clack of a bow being drawn.

    The music died. The laughter cut out into a jagged silence.

    Legolas was suddenly standing at Gimli’s side. His bow was up, the string pulled taut against his cheek, and the gleaming tip of a Mirkwood arrow was leveled directly at the center of the Dwarven lady’s forehead.

    Summary

    In a mountain, standing like a knife against the eastern sky, there lived a hobbit.

    Not a cold, draughty crypt of a mountain, filled with cries of the dead and pain of the living, nor yet a new-born colony, striking out its place in the world. It was Erebor, and Bilbo Baggins had made the choice to remain six months prior, after the Battle of the Five Armies had solidified the Kingdom as one to be respected once more.

    Something in his pocket began to stir.

    Or: Bilbo Baggins discovers The One Ring. Everyone has a bad time.

     

    (This is a sequel. The previous works total around 13k, including a one-shot of skippable smut. All smut associated with this work will be placed in skipabble side stories. Please do not be put off by the archive warnings on the others as it is NOT WHAT YOU THINK. I highly reccomend reading at least CYTM first.)

    Summary

    Dying was less complicated than Kíli had previously thought.
    After all the pain, all the unimaginable ripping that had coursed through his body as his injuries overtook him, it was surprisingly peaceful. An abyss. An emptiness. The final curtain on one so full of life and noise.
    His heart stuttered to a stop with a final thunk; something that twisted until the very feeling of the cold stone and snow beneath his back leached away.
    Fading.
    Drifting.
    It was quiet.
    At least, for somewhere in the region of approximately five seconds.

    Or: Kíli's turn to fix it.
