Thorin wakes up.
Slowly he heals, mind and body, and, many months later, when he is finally well enough, he sets out east, to bring their hobbit home.
He knocks on the door of Bag End, chest puffed proudly and eyes shining, and when it swings open he releases a shuddering breath he did not know he had been holding. The burglar is alright.
He does not know what reaction he was expecting from Bilbo in return - screaming, fainting, being swiftly drawn into an embrace - but it certainly wasn’t a nochalant, “Oh, hello Thorin,” before turning back down the hall.
There is a pause, before Thorin enters and closes the door behind himself. He stands frozen in the corner, and silently watches the hobbit potter around, completely calm, as if a dead dwarven king appearing in his house is entirely ordinary.
He talks to Thorin quite the thing, not seeming to expect a reply. “Here’s your tea, Thorin, drink it before it gets cold.” “Hamfast’s rhubarb is coming is particularly well now the frost is gone.” “I wrote another chapter of my book yesterday.”
Thorin just does not understand, until Bilbo pauses for a moment, looks at him with the tiniest frown on his face and says, very quietly, “You never usually stay this long.”
Even years after the quest Thorin still refers to Bilbo as ‘my burglar’ as a term of endearment to which Bilbo always responds ‘I’m no longer a burglar, Thorin’ and Thorin quickly replies ‘Burglar of my heart’ and Bilbo just rolls his eyes but blushes nonetheless
So…are you gonna kiss him or not?
Your mountain won’t go anywhere, you know..
More from the Eareniel’s Discovering Mr Baggins series! Thorin’s chapter was long and full of significant scenes so I ended up doing 4 pics for that chapter.
And with that, I’m done! Wheewhoo
Wow. I like how they do not only the height difference but actual proportionality difference. Beautiful.
OK THIS IS WHAT I COULD FIND OF THORIN SCREAMING FOR BILBO AS THEY’RE BEING PULLED OT SHORE. For kurosmind, speakfriendandenter, bellatook!!
I actually hadn’t reached this part in the appendices yet I just thought I remembered hearing a small snippet in the beginning of the appendices and thought that was it so thank you thorinshielding for pointing out where the rest of it was~
Well, Bilbo got his portrait done right? It stands to reason that Thorin would’ve gotten his done, too.
WHY WOULD YOU APOLOGIZE FOR THIS OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT I’M LYING DEAD ON THE FLOOR AND REBLOGGING THIS FROM THE AFTERLIFE?!
Oh, I would love to see Bilbo’s face when this dropped out of his papers and Frodo was all ‘What’s this, Uncle Bilbo?’
I’m not on the Thilbo ship, but this drawing? OOOF! …and I don’t even like super hairy men. Okay, then…let me gather my wits about me and move on! You’re welcome, Thorin lovers. [Question: What does it say in Dwarvish on the corner of the drawing?]
Could you rec me some thorin/bilbo fics? I'd much appreciate. Also I love your blog. Seeing your stuff on my dash is always nice. :)

There you go^^
Bilbo is tired and your fur is comfy Thorin Thorin: *screaming internally*
My parents used to put bells in my pockets so they would always know where I was in the house.
What if Thorin gives Bilbo a bell to carry around Erebor because he is always scary quiet?
What if Nori makes a game of pickpocketing the bell without alerting Bilbo?
What if there is a massive horde of bells somewhere in the mountain that Nori just looks at and giggles mischievously?
In other words: please bell your hobbit you will not be disappointed.
