Summary
In the evening before the Battle of the five armies, after Gandalf and Bilbo talked to Thranduil and Bard, the latter two stay together in Thranduil's tent. A moment of curiousity leads to unexpected intimacy.
"You may touch it if you want.", he said.
Thranduil's gaze snapped up from his beard to his eyes in surprise.
"Touch... it? Your beard?", he repeated in a tone of disbelief that Bard had never heard in his voice before. Though he certainly did not seem repulsed by the idea.
"Yes, if you want to.", Bard confirmed, again stepping closer.

Summary
“He needs to ride out his energy, if you can pardon the pun.”
Ah. This, Legolas can understand, in the abstract - indeed, he has heard about how the blood of men might boil after battle, though he admits to himself that he thought Aragorn above such things. He knows from conversations through the years that Aragorn had not retained elven chasteness after he left Rivendell, and yet Aragorn has about him an otherworldliness, as if mortal thoughts do not run through him. “I fail to see how that involves me.”
Gimli does not respond, just looks at him long, until Legolas feels his cheeks heat.
In the aftermath of Helm's Deep, Aragorn is pent up. Legolas comes to his aid, in spite of Elvish chastity norms.

Summary
Consideration (noun): Something of value given by both parties to a contract that induces them to enter into the agreement to exchange mutual performances.
Months after the Battle of the Five Armies, it is clear that the people of Dale will not make it through the winter without assistance. Bard travels to Mirkwood to secure aid from Thranduil. There was little that the new King of Dale would not do for his people so when Thranduil offers him aid in exchange for Bard remaining with him for two weeks, Bard does not think twice about trading himself in exchange for his people’s survival, if he has understood his terms correctly.
What begins as a brief affair slowly turns into something more. In a slight reversal from the usual formula, this is endless smut from start to finish with a slow-burn romance underneath. I will be adding more tags as I update the story.
