And there we have it~! All of the Saintly dwarves of Thorin's Company are finally completed! I ran out of types of cheeses for the Lins and Oins, so I made up some cheese types :p Maybe they're special, Middle Earth-only cheeses.
It only took me, oh...4 years or so LOL And to think, it all started because of a joke on a discord server about Saint Bofur.

juste a silly thing but dear to me :) part 1
Summary: the Hobbit, but the company realizes that they are followed by a dwarf that Gandalf hides more or less from them.
..................................................................
“Eru saves me from the stuborness of Dwarves. "Gandalf sighed for the thousandth time that evening.
Getting the dwarf ONLY NEAR Bilbo’s house took the wizard two hours. Not counting the three hours of almost negotiating before, when they both arrived early and waiting for the first to arrive from Thorin’s Company. Almost, because it wasn’t one. A negotiation is made between two parties ready to compromise, to find a solution. Here it was he, Gandalf, trying to convince the least cooperative dwarf in all of Middle-earth to come forward with him. All he received during this three hours of monologue were violent no with the head and hands desperately clutching the tree trunk, as if the dwarf feared the wizard would catch them and throw them like a sack of potatoes into the house.
“As if I could” the wizard sighed again
How long had he been trying to gain the dwarf’s trust to get close enough to heal him? Two months? Four months ? The closest he got was three metres. And that was only because he had approached by surprise.
"You are hungry.” He whispers again, “There’s still plenty of food here, and it’s hot.”
The slightest sudden move on his part would frighten the dwarf who had already, by an incredible miracle, entered through the garden door and now their had to be prevented from leaving !
“They’re all asleep.” the wizard encouraged with a smile
It was a miracle in itself that none of the dwarves in the company had suspected anything about the wizard's whereabouts in the garden throughout the evening.
Frankly, Gandalf would almost have preferred the opposite. That Thorin, Balin, any of them would surprise them both and that, finally,, FINALLY, they would discover this dwarf that Gandalf had been trying in vain to heal for months. During their journey to the Shire, the dwarf in question had hidden their horrible wounds under tons of clothes, hiding even their bruised hands and especially the rusty chains. The dwarf hid their pain from their untreated wounds just as well.
There would be a lot of questions if one of the company members woke up now, but at least the poor dwarf would finally be taken care of. Gandalf still couldn't explain the dwarf's terror at the idea of being among his own, seeing them shaking in anxiety on Bilbo's doorstep.
An uncertain gaze. A small, first hesitant step. Then a second one. Gradually Gandalf stepped back, silently encouraging the dwarf to come.
Bare feet dirty with mud on the hot ground of Bilbo’s house, the frightened look not leaving one moment the sleeping figures of the different members of the company, the dwarf advanced slowly, terrified.
But between worry and fear, Gandalf saw hope fill the dwarf's eyes.
“You’re safe.” he whispered
Hiii! For the color palette challenge, could I request Dís with 11 please? Thanks!
-midearthwritings 💛
HERE !
Thanks for the request it was a lot of fun !
Dis, daughter of Thrain ! I like to imagine that since she was really really young when Smaug happened and the exiled, she did not have, for the first few years of exiled, clothes of her own and instead Thorin, Frerin or even Dwalin and Balin used to give her their own clothes and this is why i didn’t put her in some fancy royal clothes or whatever.
My Ko-Fi !
Already on the next challenge ask ! You will NEVER guess who it is ! ( No, it’s not an Oc !)
I’m not really sure to keep the beard like this for know but the bun stays !

Bofur
-the second he understands that he will have to fight against his own kind, he refuses
-to fight for laughs, to fight to train there he has no problem but for a real fight during which there is a risk of injuries, or even worse, he refuses
-nothing will make him change his mind unless he is told that worse things will happen to his friends if he doesn’t fight
-even if he knows that Dori has an incredible strength, that Dwalin is a warrior who survived multiple fights, he doesn’t go all the way in his blows, for fear of hurting his opponent
-Mahal ! They are his friends !
-he still does his best to fight in spite of everything because he fears what will happen if they realize that he is faking it a bit
-he doesn’t blame Dwalin or Dori for the black eyes he gets, nor his broken bones, he knows they have no choice either
-even though he never learned to fight as a warrior like Dwalin, nor does he have the strength of Dori, he manages to surprise and hold his own during part of the fight with his speed and ingenuity, as well as with his intuitive use of his pickaxe and his strength gained from working in the mines
-he ends up abandoning the fight, pretending to be too injured to continue, hoping that the fight will end as soon as possible
-he still ended up with a broken elbow, three broken sides, his pickaxe in pieces, a dislocated knee and a fractured wrist
Dwalin
-FUCK YOU he is not going to fight against his own kind, his friends !!!!
-he completely and totally refuses to fight at the beginning
-Like Bofur, he is afraid of hurting his friends except that for him it is justified. He knows that in combat he often acts by reflex, by automatism, because he learned during many years to fight and to survive on the battlefield. He knows the damage he can do to his opponents and it is out of the question that he does that to his friends.
-he is distressed and angry when he realizes that he has no choice and that one of them must win this fight or much worse will happen
-before giving his first blow he apologizes, he apologizes from the depths of his heart, for what he is going to do to them, he already blames himself
-from the first blow that Bofur throws at him, he understands that Bofur doesn’t dare to go all the way and pretends to be in pain, to be out of breath, to be dizzy, so that Bofur doesn’t get into trouble
-he is impressed by Bofur’s strange way of fighting and notes in a corner of his mind to teach him some techniques
-on the other hand he who thought he was the strongest is quickly surprised by Dori
-while Bofur refuses to give the blows and prolongs the fight without wanting it, Dwalin understands quickly that Dori has the opposite technique, and makes sure to win as quickly as possible so that finally the fight is finished
-he doesn’t realize it but he also has the same technique as Dori
-he is worried when Bofur collapses on the ground, wounded and wants to go to help him but Dori breaks his arm
Dori
-he accepts directly to fight against his own, with the idea in mind to finish the fight as soon as possible
-he feels terrible and like Dwalin, he apologizes from the start, that he doesn’t want to do this but there is no other way
-he tries not to hurt Bofur too much, understanding quickly that the younger one doesn’t give his all
-he understands that Bofur is faking when he collapses to the ground, but sees that Dwalin has not understood Bofur so he breaks his arm, seeing the opportunity to finish the fight quickly
-even if Dwalin has a strength and a knowledge of the fight, Dori has a strength and a resistance which is beyond the warrior
-Dwalin realizes it quickly when Dori explodes his ribs with a single punch
-If breaking all your bones means the fight will be over, Dori is willing to make that choice and he will break them all. One by one.
-but afterwards he will take care of you like a worried mother
-Unlike Dwalin, who apologizes for almost every blow he throws, Dori simply replies : “Shut up and hit me! One of us has to win!”
-he wins after dislocating both of Dwalin’s shoulders, breaking his knee, fracturing his nose and breaking his ribs, ankles and wrists
-he is not in good shape either, but his maternal instinct takes over and anesthetizes his own pain
-he takes care of Dwalin and Bofur and forbids them to get out of bed for several months
Finally: Dwalin is in awe of Dori now; the memory of the fight becomes a joke between thoses three and Dwalin and Bofur promise each other inwardly that they will never be hurt again if it is Dori who watches over them because he is the one who fed them during those long months of recovery (#Eowyn’s soup)

(Here a picture found on google of Harnaam Kaur ,she's 24 years old , has polycystic ovary syndrome, a hormonal condition that can result in the growth of excess facial hair. In March 2016 she became the first female with a beard to walk the runway at London Fashion Week. She’s BEAUTIFUL SERIOUSLY !)
Thorin
-he is SO confused at first
-The fact of meeting a dwarf traveling alone, a lady at that, being surprising and rare to say the least, he is just, "Where are you from? Where are the others? What dwarf cities are you from? Why are you traveling alone ?"
-because yes, even if you are the size of a human, and having never heard of a bearded woman existing among humans, he immediately thinks that you are a lady dwarf
-When you explain to him that no, it is quite normal, that you are not one of his but actually a human lady, he will confound himself in excuses.
-He knows the reputation that dwarf women have among humans (not to their liking) and fears to have embarrassed you
-Does he find you attractive? MAHAL YES !!!
-”Balin help how do you compliment a human lady ?“
Balin
-He had heard of women with beards among humans but had never met one before
-He is more than delighted and honored to meet you
-he will subtly make you understand that you do not leave indifferent several members of the Company
-if you ask him, he will explain how beards are perceived by dwarves, and how important they are to them
Dwalin
-At first he will think that you are making fun of dwarf women and that you have a fake beard
-he will then smash the face of all those who will have the misfortune to make fun of you
-will help Thorin to compliment you
-will teach you to break the face of those who laugh at you
Oin
-no matter how many times you try to explain to him that you are a human lady, he will think you are a lady dwarf
-will give you billions of tips to take care of your beard and make it beautiful
Gloin
-”a beard like this and still not married? Inconceivable!”
-he is outraged to hear that you are single
-”Come on, Oin, we must find her someone worthy of her !”
-Bombur and him adopt you
-as protective as Dwalin
Kili
-knowing already that some dwarf women have more beard than him, to know that a HUMAN LADY has more beard than him makes him a little jealous
-but after a while he is : “Ok she’s pretty.”
-tries to make you understand that he finds you attractive
Fili
-laughs at his brother for seeing that a female human has more beard than him
-compliments you directly
-does not hide that you are perceived as a beauty among the dwarfs
-will offer you to try some braids and will even lend you some of his jewelry
Bifur
-Like Oin, he will think that you are a dwarf lady and good luck to make him understand
-he will offer you wooden jewels that he will have carved himself to adorn your beard
-will try for a long time to put you in couple with Bofur
Bofur
-he is sorry to hear that you have been harassed and mocked because of your beard
-”Why don’t you come leave in one of our city ? Even if dwarfs are not to your taste, you will be more than respected here, and much more !”
-will assure you that you are very pretty the way you are and that you have nothing to be ashamed of
Bombur
-he is already on his way to adopt you
-cherring adoptive father
-if you were not confident because of your beard, he will give you confidence
Dori
-he must control himself with all his strength not to bury you under all his advices to magnify your beard, the oils to use, the possible hairstyles to make, the braids, the jewelry
-the first human he sees looking at you the wrong way will have his arm broken
Ori
-It will take a while for this little guy to come and ask you if he can draw you
-“Dori, how do you court someone?”
-is very afraid to compliment you
Nori
-you will find jewels to put in your beard in your pockets and your bag without ever knowing where they come from
-he will never tell you but he thinks your beard is beautiful

GIMLI : Tap Dance
The echoes must be deafening in some parts of Erebor. This + boots = best place to tap dance.
I want to see dwarves tap dancing in Erebor.
DAIN IRONFOOT : rock’n roll dance/rockabilly
A dance requiring so much energy can only please a dwarf like him
DWALIN : classical dance/ballet dance
no, no, I'm not kidding. I think that ballet would be a dance that would appeal to Dwalin.
NORI : Hopak/Gopak
Because a dance that requires so much dexterity, flexibility, speed and strength can be a considerable asset for 1) combat 2) burglaries. And besides, imagine how crazy it could drive Dori if Nori practices all over the house.
DORI : Capoeira
A mixture of combat and dance: refined and powerful, just like Dori.
OIN : Waltz
He is half deaf, you have to give him a slow dance I think so that he does not lose the rhythm
BOFUR : Salsa
Joyful, like him.
BALIN : Fox-trot
Elegant and fun for a cool grandpa.
BOMBUR : Hip-hop
After seeing him take down Orcs while stuck in a barrel, you can't convince me that Bombur wouldn't be a hip hop champion.
BIFUR : Footwork
The axe did not break his dancing abilities
GLOIN : Jumpstyle
Imagine him trying to teach jumpstyle to a three year old Gimli, it's way too cute.
Well, I think I’ll slip quietly away. Will you tell the others I said goodbye? You can tell them yourself.
Hey, you don't have to do this if you don't want to, but if you do can I request a hc of how the company members would try to cheer up a depressed reader? Thank you in advance.
I’d be happy to! I suffer from depression and bipolar depression so I can completely sympathize.
He isn’t the most tactful dwarf in Middle-Earth, but he would do his best to let them know he is there for him. It takes him longer than he’d like to admit to noticing something is wrong and once he does he has some trouble communicating how he is feeling. He isn’t very good at comfort, but he would let them know he is there for them whenever they need someone to talk to, and he would sit with them in silence as he did his paperwork and they read or occupied themselves as a show of support and solidarity. He is also more than familiar with ailments of the mind and it would pain him greatly to see them suffer.
A wise hobbit indeed, Bilbo would be able to not only empathize with them but likely say something wise and insightful about it. If they felt guilty or undeserving Bilbo would fire back with a very matter-of-a-fact explanation of why they deserve the love and support. He would be very attentive and try to do little things to help them out.
Fili doesn’t hide his concern but isn’t too much for them. He treats them the same as he usually does but does tell them flat out that he is there for them if they need anything. He pays closer attention to them as he mentally checks the boxes he needs to to make sure they are still caring for themselves. He steps in when needed but is usually a strong presence who doesn’t wish to coddle them or infantilize them because of their condition.
He has the best of intentions but doesn’t always know how to execute them. He is a little overbearing with a lot of forced enthusiasm disguising concern as he tries his best to get them to go out and do things with him. He just wishes they were back to how they usually were and frets endlessly about how he can help them get there. Thorin eventually has to sit down with him and explain from his firsthand knowledge that others must only concern themselves with what they can control. Kili cannot control when they come out of their slump, but he can control how he chooses to support them. After that, he becomes much less overbearing.
While not exactly the same he has seen some of his soldiers shut down from trauma and depression from the things they have seen and done on the battlefield. He would make sure they get out of their room at least once a day, taking them on a circuit around the mountain no matter how short the time is. If he can get them to come to training with him even better, although he knows they probably wouldn’t participate. He is a tough-love kind of guy and will do what they need even if they don’t like it.
Balin is not naive to what depression can do to people. He saw it a lot in the aftermath of Smaug’s attack on Erebor while their people journeyed with no destination in sight. His comfort is that they would have a stable place to be while they dealt with it instead of having to move every day. He wouldn’t crowd them like a lot of the other dwarves, simply bring them things to do or eat. He would fuss at Dwalin if he began pushing them too hard, reminding him that it does them no favors to push beyond what they are capable of.
Unless the reader is a dwarf they probably wouldn’t be able to communicate, but Bifur is actually a very observant person. He sits with them and carves things for them, a quiet comfort that isn’t overwhelming for them. He lets them sleep or sit in silence if they want to as long as he is there. He would bring them food and silently make sure they ate and took care of themselves.
Bofur is extremely perceptive to other people’s feelings and picks up on it right away when they slip into a depressive episode. He keeps a light humor around them and tries to raise their spirits in an unobtrusive and unobvious way. He’ll usually come to their room and just talk about the mischief he’d gotten up to that day or some new rhymes he’d come up with. Just rambling about small things to fill the silence.
His biggest worry would be the lack of appetite. As soon as he notices them miss a mealtime or not eat as much as they should he makes an effort to make their favorite things. He would also make them snacks throughout the day instead of big meals with the excuse of trying out new recipes. He is determined to make sure they keep up their nutrition until their episode is over.
He knows but they don’t know he knows because he knows all. He’s always sneaking around and is the information source for the mountain so he knows exactly when they begin to slip. He doesn’t do much to try to assist them, knowing it is something that largely has to be defeated on their own, but he quietly keeps an eye on them and reports to the others when they are neglecting themselves. He is one of the biggest reasons that Bombur has been shoveling food onto them.
His love language is tea. Tea in the morning, tea in the evening, they haven’t even finished one cup before he is back with another. He is also an older brother so he is very caring and paternal. He would absolutely fret over them all day and be a little too up in their business, especially if they need space, but it is all because he cares.
Ori has read about conditions like this, but he is not entirely sure how to help. He sits and reads or knits with them, trying to get them to interact with him so they don’t isolate themselves. He would make a blanket or scarf out of his comfiest yarn and just be a quiet and kind constant presence and support.
He mainly just talks. He tries to draw them into a conversation, sometimes about family if that isn’t a sore spot, or about whatever their hobbies and passions are. Even if he just gets a few words as a response he is just happy to get them to talk about something. He doesn’t want them to get so lost in their head that they forget they aren’t alone.
This isn’t his first rodeo. He has treated illnesses of the mind before but recognizes there is only so much he can do. If there is any sort of equivalent to dwarven anti-depressants he would get them on it right away, and if not he would do his best to make sure their physical health remained well as he knows one can ignore their physical needs such as eating or sleeping while they are depressed.
For such an old guy he can lack tact a lot of the time. He doesn’t pull punches with them and will drag them out of the mountain to do something or the other, telling them exactly why he is doing it. He is like the stern grandfather you can’t help but love, but grow very exasperated with. He and Thorin have gotten into a few arguments about it, the King of the opinion that they need to be able to do what is comfortable for them until they can find a way through it with a little assistance.
Hi! Can I please request a headcanon for the Hobbit? How would the dwarves react if they were forced to use a different weapon than their trademark one for a day? Tysm, love your writing?
Absolutely! Thank you so much!
He wouldn’t be happy about it, but he would make do. He uses greatswords typically so he’d do well with shortswords, spears and polearms, and axes. He might have a little more trouble with ranged weapons though such as a bow.
He can fight with a sword just fine but he can fumble a little. It would be difficult for him to go from a ranged weapon to a close combat one and he’d probably reach to draw another arrow multiple times by accident when a battle starts. He would still be fine though.
Fili is somewhat of a jack of all trades. His knives of course are his go-to weapons, but he isn’t bad with swords, axes, or even the bow (Kili would have dragged him to practice archery with him a lot when he was learning). He would probably be a little less comfortable the larger the weapon is.
He’s been around the block once or twice. That being said he generally isn’t a meathead warrior like his brother so he might have a hard time with it. He wouldn’t panic though, he’d just sigh and take it all in stride.
This guy won’t have a single problem. He is good at handling any weapon even though he prefers not to use a bow. He likes being up in his opponent’s face, but that doesn’t mean he is bad at using a bow at all. He’d be a little disgruntled about it but ultimately it wouldn’t change much.
He would be a little crabby about it. Think your grandpa when something mildly inconvenient happens and he mumbles about it for the next week. He doesn’t really mean it down to his core, but the healer in him is always fussing about something. He’d probably be more worried about everyone else and if they would be prone to more injuries while they don’t have their regular weapons.
Like Dwalin, Gloin can handle just about any weapon though just slightly less well. As long as he gets to bash someone’s skull in he’s fine with whatever. He can be creative.
He’d be alright too. He isn’t a stranger to battle so he is fairly competent with most weapons. Bows might be hard for him, I imagine with the axe embedded in his skull it may mess with some of his motor skills or even vision at times. But if he can swing around a blade he can still hang with the big boys.
He rolls with it. He is very creative and even if he has never used the weapon before he either learns very quickly or invents a fun new way to use it. He has managed to kill an Orc by using a polearm in a....unique.....way.
He would have some trouble. His talents primarily lie in the kitchen, so fighting isn’t his strongest suit. That being said he can still do it, but put a bow in his hand and he’ll have no idea how to use it. If it is a blade like a sword or a knife or even an axe in a pinch he’ll manage.
This poor baby boy uses a slingshot. Dori doesn’t let him practice with real weapons often because he thinks he’ll hurt himself (that only happened four times). He would be very freaked out but he is the little engine that could and he’ll just keep on truckin along.
He is quick and sneaky enough that it probably won’t matter too much. The true power in his combat lies in how quickly he both thinks and moves. He’s like a ghost and most of the time the enemy doesn’t even know what hit them, or can barely track his movement. At the end of the day, Nori can get pretty creative.
He would grumble about it but ultimately the biggest concern for him would be the possibility that it would hinder his combat abilities, causing him to be less able to protect his brothers. For some reason, I constantly picture Dori as Mrs. Doubtfire yelling “Help is on the way, dear!” rushing into battle.
Bonus:
Like his father, he would take it in stride and out of pure rage work very well with it. Legolas would 100% rib him about using a different weapon so no matter what it was he would be determined to win their kill count contest with it out of pure spite.
ok so out of the company who do we think are the morning people vs night people?
Morning people:
Thorin- only because he’s leader and has to be
Bilbo- my mans got to get up EARLY to get his first AND second breakfast in 😭🤚
Gandalf- He lives on the road he knows how to get up and at em
Gloin- he’s a dad he’s use to waking up at the crack of Dawn because of Gimli
Dori- (aka mother hen) has to wake up early and make sure his bros are awake as well and ready
Bombur- also dad. And he makes breakfast for the company and maybe sometimes second breakfast for Bilbo
Bofur- is the human definition of sunshine. Doesn’t matter when or where he wants to make sure everyone is happy
Dwalin- Wakes up as soon as he can. Idk why he just seems like a morning person. Probably to warm up for today’s fight
Night people:
Ori- poor bby hates waking up early and stays up late drawing or knitting🥺
Nori- would sleep till noon if he could
Fili and Kili- stays up all night talking, joking, setting up pranks, and stuff then complains all morning about being tired
Bifur- like to stay up and watch the stars and make wooden carvings <3
Balin- is grandpa. Stays up telling old dwarven stories to anyone who’ll listen
Oin- is also grandpa. Has to stay up and patch up anyone who was injured that day
AGAJDHDH KLOE YOUR ANSWERS HAD ME ROLLING 😭😭
thorin- ugh ahsjdhdj thorin is such a grumpy gus!!! if i was in the company i just know him waking us up at the ass crack of dawn would piss me off (still love him tho <3 )
gandalf- honestly does that guy even sleep?? he’s an enigma 😭
gloin- the idea that gloin has stayed on newborn-parent-sleep schedule well past gimli’s baby years is so funny
dori- you’re so right! he’s gotta be ALERT
bombur- agsjdhdkfj him making second breakfast for bilbo is so cute!!!
bofur- yes i agree!! he’s definitely that type of person in the morning that makes you think ‘how is her so energetic?? it’s literally 4 am and he hasn’t had coffee??’ (i could also picture him being less than sunshine on certain mornings when he is nursing a killer hangover 💀 )
dwalin- i’m just picturing him waking up fili and kili in the worst way possible because he has no chill!! *dwalin, with a shit-eating grin, pouring a bucket of cold river water on them: training time lads!!! 😁 *
ori- my little artist gremlin 🥺 picturing him staying up late at night writing romantic poetry by the light of the moon (may or may not be about dwalin 👀 )
nori- classic teenager,, his sleep schedule is definitely w a c k
fili and kili- they gotta plan (and set up) pranks when the rest of the company is asleep and unassuming!! random cute thing i thought of: obviously fili and kili cuddle when they sleep and end up in a tangled mess of limbs. kili drools during his sleep, and so fili wakes up with a little drool puddle on his tunic 😭
bifur- AGAJDHDJ THIS IS SO CUTE I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!! 🥺😭😭 he’s definitely very introspective
balin- 🥺 tell stories to me please balin. that would literally be so good for putting you to sleep!! (i can picture fili and kili groaning dramatically as balin starts on a new story. “we’ve heard this a thousand times as dwarflings!!!!” )
oin- this is so sweet and cute i may just have to include this in a future fic. embarrassed about an injury? no worries- oin will wait until the company has gone to sleep to help you out! (though he may grumble about it a bit)
HEY !!! Give me two of my Ocs for a fight and I'll tell you which one wins :
like : Barkem vs Haar or Parar vs Durin or even Jrié vs Parar ( they are together ) !!!
Or even make them fight with someone of Thorin’s Company or the Fellowship of the Ring !!!!
Gloin : have you seen my baby?
Random dwarf : no why ? Oh by Durin's beard you lost them ??
Gloin, putting his two-year-old Gimli in front of his friend, with the biggest proud dad smile : No, I only want you to see them
Oin : Gloin, brother, I swear on Mahal that if you don't stop I'll rip your beard off with your own hands
