When People Start Following Me I Panic Because I’m Just Here Reposting Stuff That I Find Funky Or That

I love the hobbit fandom so much but please, my loves, my sweet baby pebbles, please… stop using really bad metal working analogies

Work hardened/annealed=

When you want to soften a metal to make it more pliable you heat it, this is called annealing. This is done when something you are working gets work hardened or develops tenseness that makes it fragile

So like.. if you’re writing some Bagginshield smut or fluff like you do (ha) you could say “Bilbo seemed to anneal under the heat of Thorins hands”

You’re welcome

My brain: We not sleepin tonight

Me: K *opens ao3*

I like thinking about the study done discovering that homophobia is only found in the human race among all living species, and I like to apply that the middle earth too. I imagine Bilbo and Thorin going off to their room while in Laketown, the Master is just like “what good friends those two are” while the rest of the Dwarves are like “tf???”

The thing I love about shipping thorin/bilbo or any of the dwarves together is that it canonically makes sense that some dwarves would have male significant others. I think it’s like 1/3 of all dwarves are female? That number may be wrong, but we defintely know dwarrodams are very hard to come by so like… why wouldn’t some of the dwarves be gay? At the very least due to “supply and demand” issues? Homophobia just does not logically make sense looking at dwarven culture.

More family shenanigans...

Omg I crack myself up. Please tell me someone else enjoys this as much as I did making it.

don’t attempt to be cute if you’re easily spooked or have siblings with the tendency to ignore your privacy wandering about

Ch. 116 - Bait and Ghost - The Blind Burglar

“Once we have the Arkenstone and an army of my kin, the Master will be in no position to demand anything!” Thorin insisted. “We don’t have to do anything.”

“Woah. Wait. What?” Bard stopped them. “Army? What are you–” His eyes widened. “Oh, Eru. No. What the hell are you planning? I thought you were headed to the Iron Hills?!”

The Elve shared a look, and Balin shook his head.

“You’re going to the mountain.” Bard understood even without anyone saying anything. “I can’t believe I’m helping you. You’re going to bring the wrath of the dragon down on all of us!”

“Stop being melodramatic, Bard,” Bilbo said. “It’s not cute in a grown man.”

“Oh, pardon me. I suppose I should be grateful you want to stir up the embodiment of death!”

“We’re not going to let the dragon come to Laketown.”

“How are you supposed to stop a bloody dragon?!”

Shrugging, Bilbo said, “We’ll figure something out.”

i love when Dori isn’t even in a fic but the author still throws in a line about how pretty he is. they’ll be describing a completely different character’s physical appearance and it’s like “yeah he’s cute but he’s not as breathtakingly gorgeous and perfect as DORI, now THAT’S a beautiful dwarf. have you seen his hair? his big strong arms? no, no dwarrow could compare to Dori. this one is fine tho. i guess.” and they’re always so right
