“did i not say that you would be a burden, that you would not survive in the wild, that you had no place amongst us…?”
thorin repeats his previous words perfectly, meaning that:
- thorin definitely spent a lot of time thinking about what he had said to bilbo after he said it
- he most likely felt really bad about it as soon as he said it, seeing as the sole purpose of bringing it up again was to ask for bilbo’s forgiveness and recognize how wrong he was
- the scene in the goblin cave where bilbo goes to leave and bofur sees him leaving and they have that discussion about not having a home and then it turns out that thorin was awake the whole time???? he was totally having a cataclysmic internal panic over what he had said to bilbo just before and he’s fucking leaving, thorin, you’ve done it now, look what you’ve done, you’ve lost us our burglar
and a very cozy…soft…handsome hobbithnngh no, oakenshield… ! don’t let them see !!- when bilbo slipped away after the goblin encounter and he didn’t come back can you imagine
- “i’ll never see him again, i just know he thinks badly of me, i was too harsh, i should never have said that” and then bilbo shows up again like magic
- already thorin must be like “well this hobbit is certainly full of surprises” and then bilbo gives his little speech about helping them get their home back and thorin is like. fuck i think i’m legitimately in love with bilbo baggins. what cruel universal joke is this. why am i attracted to this hobbit.
- add that to the warg attack and the last thing thorin sees before he passes out from pain and shock (after the reappearance of the presumed-dead beast who killed his grandfather, no less) is bilbo diving headfirst onto an orc with his tiny sword out in front of him
- then the first words out of his mouth when he wakes up: “the halfling?” just fuck me up
in conclusion bagginshield is real, thank you for reading

The restoration works in Erebor are long and tedious but that doesn’t mean the King Under the Mountain can’t take the time to woo his intended with his ability to sing and play the harp.
Anon wanted Thorin courting Bilbo, so… here, have this quick thing.

The anniversary creeps up on them, as it always does, slowly and out of nowhere, like the first frost painting hesitant sketches on the windows one morning. There is an ache within Thorin, older than his oldest scars, that always makes itself known this time of year, but he can sense this – its edges have been dulled, its impact lessened, over time.
Still, he need only wake up to know. Bilbo will be gentler around him today, more careful, as if it hasn’t been over a decade, as if Thorin still wakes up with the memory of dragonfire coursing through his veins.
“You’ll forget your head next…”
(Thorin forgot his notes for next meeting, but thankfully Bilbo saw them when he went to get his own documents from their chambers.
Also he teases Thorin by slapping anything that he brings Thorin and is remotely flat against his chest, because he still finds it hilarious how he got handed the contract that got him into all this)
Aaaaanyway, here’s @serenbach86 ‘s picture for my giveaway! They asked for
‘Bilbo kissing Thorin while he’s sitting down’ ❤ Thank you for the lovely prompt!
if you think that bilbo didn‘t get dicked down after the vouch scene, you are a fool
