    Summary

    When Thorin’s Company arrives at Bag End, there is no flustered hobbit to greet them. In fact, there is no Bilbo Baggins to be found anywhere in Bag End.

    But Gandalf swears he had talked to the hobbit that morning.

    Where on Middle Earth is Bilbo?

    Summary

    5 times the Company tries to convince Bilbo not to cut his hair and 1 time they succeed ><

    Bilbo's hair has always grown very fast and as a Baggins, he takes pride in a neat apperance. No adventure is going to prevent him from keeping his hair trimmed! For a dwarf, however, talking about hair is very taboo, something you only discuss with family or a close lover. Cutting a dwarf's hair communicates great grief or unspeakable shame. That's why the Company are in despair when Bilbo keeps cutting his beautiful hair. They can't figure out why, when they've told him countless times his past doesn't matter to them...

    Summary

    It was sheer chance when Bilbo thought back on it. What if he’d stayed home? What if someone else had run up the lane before him?

    But it was him. It was him and it was Kíli, and Bilbo wouldn’t change it for the world.

    *

    Long ago, a dwarf child was lost and found in a storm by Bilbo Baggins. He has no idea where his young ward came from; all attempts to find Kíli's family failed. Sticking together, they make do and it's a peaceful life.

    Until Gandalf arrives with talk of adventure. Until the Company of Thorin Oakenshield arrives on their doostep.

    Or: Kíli's a missing prince. Bilbo's not about to let his (son) ward face a dragon without him.

    Summary

    "Halfling" is considered an insult in the Shire. Of course, Big Folk (and dwarves) know far less than they think they do, so this fact eludes them. It especially eludes Thorin Oakenshield, so if Bilbo decides to use a Hobbit means of communicating his irritation, who can blame him?

    Dwalin arrives at Bag End, and Bilbo feeds him. Things are never the same again.

    Slow-burn drabble romance built around gratuitous food porn.
