“So that’s all it takes? A few kind words from a synthetic and you’re all opened up?”
Why? Jealous?
The question burned into Kili’s eye long after the letters had faded away. He buried his face in his hands. When he looked up again Fili stood directly in front of him, still and silent.
“That was cruel even for you,” he swallowed hard.
I’m sorry.
“Are you?” It came out bitter and rough. “Sometimes I can’t even breathe around you. You just…make all this silence between us and it’s choking me. But apparently it’s just fine to natter to on to a goddamn synthetic you met ten minutes ago.”
I’m twenty-five. You’re twenty-three.

“To a certain degree it’s their untold destiny to travel to the Lonely Mountain and to reclaim their lost treasure and their lost gold, and possibly their homestead. And I guess, a lot of it is for pride, I think – apart from the fact that material goods are something that the dwarves are almost semi-obsessed with. But it’s just something they need to do, and a lot of these songs and accounts of their people, their ancestors, they’ve been brought up with all of these stories of battles lost and won. But now, I guess it’s this portentous thing, where it’s in the air that they need to do this, they need to get it back, and I guess it’s for the survival of their own race.” - Aidan Turner
