Bilbo: wait I get it now. The dragon is a metaphor for greed and power. We need to ‘defeat’ it by being humble when we get the treasure.
Thorin: Bilbo, for the last time, it’s a real dragon and it has my gold

“I’m not doing it for you. I know that dwarves can be obstinate and pigheaded and difficult. And suspicious and secretive, with the worst manners you can possibly imagine; but they are also brave and kind…and loyal to a fault. I’ve grown very fond of them, and I would save them if I can.”
Time to share a little headcanon of mine I’ve had for a long while now.
Based on this cute practice that male high school students in Japan, where they would give the second button of their gakuran to the person they’re in love with because that button is the one closest to their heart. If dwarves have their beads as their way of courtship, I can see Hobbits taking up this courtship practice, along with the flower/flower crown/food
The acorn design on Bilbo’s buttons was A++ addition now, especially after the acorn scene in BoTFA.
…And of course, Thorin has zero clue about this. Oh how I love cultural differences~

There is a 100% chance that Bilbo tried to pass off his adoption of Frodo as a burglary.

I think my favorite moment to come out of the Hobbit trilogy is probably the one where Bilbo tries to describe what Thorin meant to him, but can’t find the words. “To me he was…….”
Because Bilbo’s greatest strength is supposed to be his skill with words?
He survives Gollum by having a riddle-competition with him, he survives Smaug by flattering him, he manipulates the trolls, he frequently reigns Thorin in and talks him down, the Hobbit is literally his book and he’s the one writing the story, etc. Bilbo’s strength isn’t being a warrior– it’s being witty and knowing what to say.
There’s something so compelling about the idea that the hobbit whose greatest strength was being a wordsmith, the hobbit who came face-to-face with a dragon and survived by having a conversation with him…..is, after Thorin’s death, finally at a loss for words. For the first time, he’s completely lost his ability to speak.
This is also why I feel like film!Bilbo’s character arc isn’t really finished? Surviving the Battle of the Five Armies wasn’t the end of his arc, any more than surviving Mount Doom was the end of Frodo’s arc.
Just as we needed to see Frodo gradually realize he doesn’t belong in the Shire anymore, and make the decision to go to the Grey Havens…. I feel like we needed to see Bilbo gradually go from being the person who was too grief-stricken to put what happened to him into words, to the person who was able to write everything down in the Hobbit.

Our Favorites: [Day 18/24] Mali’s favorite funny scene (The Hobbit)
Unfortunately one of the things I couldn’t’ stop paying attention to in BotFA is how good looking Thorin looked throughout the whole movie
noooooooooooooooooooooooo shit

Okay, fine. I’ll go. But I’m going to complain about it the whole way there.
Bilbo, during ‘The Hobbit’ (via incorrect-middleearth-quotes)

”If you mean you think it is my job to go into the secret passage first, O Thorin Thrain’s son Oakenshield, may your beard grow ever longer,” he said crossly, “say so at once and have done! I might refuse. I have got you out of two messes already, which were hardly in the original bargain, so that I am, I think, already owed some reward.”-
Without a doubt my favourite line in the book, and this is what I always imagined was happening in the background.
