Summary
While suffering from his line's obsession with gold Thorin Oakenshield rashly makes an agreement with the Shire's Thain that results in him having to marry one of the hobbit's relatives.
Needless to say he isn't pleased, but cunningly picks Bilbo Baggins to be his consort in revenge against the Thain. For his part Bilbo decides to accept the proposal, though Thorin will be quite surprised to find out why.
Note: I have screwed around with ages, geography and timelines to suit me. You have been warned.

“Me?” Q asked, aghast. “Pay a visit?”

Summary
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
This was a favored saying of Mrs. Moneypenny’s, as it surely was for all mothers with beautiful daughters.
Q had always thought that a single man in possession of a good fortune would hardly be in want of anything, let alone a wife. But then again, Q had never paid much attention to such matters.
