This is my head canon too! :3

I like the idea that Thorin never actually disliked Bilbo during the first half of the quest, it just came off that way because Thorin had a very big crush on Bilbo and didn't know how to deal with it and so ended up being sort of mean to him very much "I wrote a note to my crush that said get out of my school" vibes

I like to think of what Bilbo will see when he opens his eyes.

Bilbo Baggins, Consort under the mountain lol

IT'S TIIIIIMEE

Does anyone have any smaug raised bilbo au fanfic recommendations, because I read one a while back and now I'm desperate for more 😔

Funny Tropes I came up with: Part 1

(If people want to use this trope, go right ahead. I just want the fic links. 😁)

Drum Major x First Snare

For those who aren’t in band, or know nothing of band, or specifically Marching Band, I’ll clue you in.

The Drum Major is the highest elected student leader in the Marching Band, organizing everything the directors aren’t, from Bus forms, to making sure everyone has their shit, to keeping people on task in rehearsal, with their most commonly known task being conducting the band. Usually there are about two in a marching band, but there can be up to about four, maybe five, though I’ve never personally seen five in a band. This person is reliable, usually pretty organized to an extent, responsible, and all that other stuff.

The First Snare is the person who is the student leader of the drum line. This person keeps the tempo, with the drum line helping the band itself keeping time and not tearing up the sound. From what I can tell, drum players are either very chill, go with the flow, or completely in, nothing else matters but the band. There is no in between, but character stuff is pretty easy to change so, do what you want. 😆

(Anyone in marching band, tell me if I’m wrong about anything from drum line or drum major stuff. I appreciate constructive criticism, thanks!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, hear me out. What got me thinking about this, is that to keep the tempo steady, the Drum Majors who are leading the band watch the First Snare’s feet and hands. Which is how the band keeps tempo so well, since the drum majors are in sync with what the drum line is doing. See where I’m going with this?? First Snare flirts with the Drum Major, or the other way around, and something happens, badda-bing badda-boom. ‘Parents’ of the band the rest of the year.

Also, both positions are usually occupied by seniors. Do with that what you will.

Examples of the Ships I Would Personally Use for This Trope

Destiel (Dean Winchester x Castiel / Supernatural)

> I would put Castiel as Drum Major, and Dean as First Snare, because I would like Sam as the supportive younger brother who also wants to join Marching Band/drum line when he gets to High School. (Also back problems Dean, so.) Also Gabe as one of the other section leaders makes me happy.

Percabeth (Percy Jackson x Anabeth Chase /PJO)

> I honestly think it would be fun to put Percy as the really chill Drum Major, and Annabeth as the no nonsense first snare, but do with that what you will.

Bagginshield (Bilbo Baggins x Thorin Oakenshield /The Hobbit)

> Modern AU Hobbit my beloved. Anyways, I’m not sure who I would put where, because on the one hand, no nonsense drum major Thorin who lightens up when he meets First Snare Bilbo who tells him off when he’s too stern with one of the freshmen. On the other hand, stern but kind drum major Bilbo who is way too easily flustered when it comes to first snare Thorin, and gets teased by his friends in the band. Either way, I’d absolutely love it.

Cool. If you want to write fics with this, I don’t care. Just tell me so I can read it. You have any questions about band dynamics or other sections, either google it or ask me. If you ask me, just comment and I’ll reply as soon as I can.

Enjoy the Trope!!

thorin is wearing a royal outfit again

and looks pretty pissed off

at bilbo no less

??????

look at this commission i did for @sunnyrosewritesstuff!!! it is a scene from her fic ambassador to madness <3. Thorin is looking respectfully, of course...

Baby Frodo is ready for Thorin to take him to play outside while Bilbo gets some much needed alone time

(He’s in his ‘why’ phase)

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

- your local dwarrow jeweler

Hobbits make terrible pets I guess

Serves him right.

I thought of something really dumb

Everything in erebor is probably proportionately 1/4-1/5 larger then things in the shire and when bilbos cooking it’s hard for him to do a lot of stuff because the poor guy is already standing on a stool.

One night Bilbo yelps something angry and storms out of the kitchen and Thorin walks in to see a salad that has been flooded with oil because the bottle was too large for him to hold and it spilt.

After consoling his very sad hobbit and taking him to the night market to get a goat cheese salad and some chicken sewers to eat up on the ramparts and watch the stars. Thorin is looking at the gutter system to runs off the ramparts and jumps to his feet, kissing Bilbo on the head and then literally running through the kingdom to his smithy- and he makes an olive oil spout to screw onto the top of the bottle so there’s more controlled flow.

He presents it to Bilbo the next day.

Bilbo silently thinks he could have just gotten Thorin to funnel the oil into smaller bottles for him and still would have gotten to sleep with his husband last night but it is very nice, and it does work very well so he smiles and kisses Thorin and uses it for months before putting it onto a smaller bottle to continue using it.

Thorin a bit of autism I think, can’t see the forest because he’s hyper focused on one bush kinda vibes. I love that silly man.

Thorin carving wooden toys and Bilbo painting them and they give them out to all the children that migrate to Erebor with their families:

There isn’t actually as much to do as one would think. Winter settled in hard and fast and with heat restored and water running there wasn’t much that could be done by Bilbo or Thorin personally as much as it drove them both crazy.

One night by the fire Thorin eyes up a small chunk of fire wood, grabbing it and taking a leather roll from inside a drawer of his writing desk containing some knives and files. He starts to whittle away at the wood. Bilbo grimaces at the mess it’s making but suddenly all those shavings bring something to mind

After the last snow of the season has passed families will be arriving in Erebor. Many of whom had to leave most of their belongings behind and many of those families will have children who will be scared and exhausted and missing their old homes not yet understanding what a haven Erebor is.

“Say… how many of those do you think you could make in a day” Bilbo hummed thoughtful

‘Lamb’

I love dragon sickness Thorin so much (as in I hate him) I always love when people write him becoming a dragon and a total dick at the same time

A illustration I miiighhhhttt finish

Full disclosure Avenge the living chapter two is done but I’m a little concerned you guys because I have a vision for the story and it’s a bit dark and intense if that’s okay

Someone said they liked the idea of Thorin using hand gestures and not talking much when he doesn’t have to (think somewhat selectively mute, maybe using Iglishmêk) and Bilbo yapper who fills every pause with his thoughts.

Bilbo: -and then he said ‘we can’t plant roses on the terraces, they’ll freeze’ can you believe that? We had the last winter snow six weeks ago- dear, where are the measuring spoons

Thorin: *doesn’t look up from his mountain of shitty paperwork, gestures vaguely in the direction of the a drawer that he put them in*

Bilbo: *rifling through the drawer* what do you think though? About the roses? Surely we can’t be expecting anymore snow? The-

Thorin: *without looking up* There’s not enough sun on the terrace you’re thinking of…

Bilbo: but-!

Thorin: plant them at the gates..

Bilbo: oh… o////o

Here’s the backgroundy version before it was looking a bit scant with just the white

Thorin and Frodo, because I love drawing them together so much

Also I need to add that this literally took me 6:35 hours to draw 😭😮‍💨

“Come on my boy.. your papa is expecting us”

Thorin enjoys his father-son bonding time but he can’t help but get a bit emotional.

When did his little Frodo get so big?

WIP for ‘After Training’

Thorin and Frodo are going back home after a very busy afternoon of goofing around training.

He’s getting a little misty eyed remembering his nephews being that little and also realizing how tall his little half hobbit son is already getting.

The hobbit fandom is so beautiful:

Oh this character has a physical disability, lets come up with 50 ways that their community will rally around them in a series universe accurate care methods to make their life easier.

Oh this character has brain damage of a learning disability? They are treated with the same level of respect and understanding as everyone else and what ever they are able to contribute from creating things to simply being present with their friends and family is enough

Oh this character is gender queer? Screw it let’s take the entire fandom and just remove gender constructs as we know them from several races. Making any sexism or homophobia seem as truly strange and off putting as it is not normal in these societies.

The hobbit fandom is based as fuck

Can i reblog this 7 trillion times? This is the cutestestest thing ever. (No composure. I just woke up)

More family shenanigans...

It’s been a while some here’s some more dwobbit Frodo

Headcanons/my canon with this version of Frodo

-Frodo loves the rookery and spends a lot of time up there, sharing Bilbos biscuits with his feathered friends

-Thorin makes Frodo a sword with a mithril core called Khazinul, or the silent fang. Light enough for his half Hobbit son to wield with terrifying speed and in near total silence.

-Frodo is never likely to become king unless it is for a very short time towards the end of his life, he will likely step out of succession all together unless something happens to both Fili and Kili. And as such Kili trains him to be Filis other guard and the pair of dark haired Durin men look like slinking shadows behind the future golden king of Erebor and so they are given the name ‘Dûmkhaz’ or ‘twin shadows’

-it wasn’t long after Erebor was reclaimed that Frodo came into the world and Thorin couldn’t justify dressing his son up too much while his people were still finding their footing so he got a lot of very over sized hand me downs, the only new items he got where knitted by Ori

Finished concept drawing of Erebor Bilbo

Yes I did full line art and color. No do not expect me to use this much will power again.

(Plus the sketches)

@reallyhappycrown I wanted to try my hand at ‘hobbits in Erebor’ concept art and I think that’s vaguely adjacent to your request so I hope you enjoy

Guys PLEASE

Give me some ideas for Bagginshield art! Please!

If a hobbit is 4”0 and a Dwarrow is 5”0 then a baby hobbit would be 4/5 the size of a Dwarf baby.. all this to say, we need to collectively agree to start drawing baby Frodo much smaller in Thorins arms

YOU DID NOT ASDFGHAHDGSGSH!!!!!! OH MY GODS! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

Can you draw Bilbo and Thorin eating something they cooked together?

Or Thorin kind of awkwardly trying to look after Sick Bilbo

Thorin’s doing his best ;-; I sorta combined the prompts with the second image (maybe bilbo helped by telling him the soup recipe ehehe) Thank you for the requests ^_^!!!

Maybe making a sticker pack :3 maybe

Hello, this is a picture I drew of me drawing a picture of myself 👍🏻

Yes that is just a sticker of Kilis stupid little face.

Anyway I’m gonna go shower and clean my room at midnight because I’m well adjusted like that

Bilbo has no concept of what he’s doing.

Normally it would be very scandalous indeed to touch another dwarrows hair but in the eyes of the party the two brothers were not much more then peddles and so it was actually comforting to see someone taking care of them.

Bilbo say combing through Kilis hair very, very carefully. Sectioning it and starting at the ends because every single tug made the young prince yelp pitifully… Fili had less patience for this game and Thorin had less still so it was understandable to Bilbos mind that the boy was somewhat jumpy about his hair, remembering his own hair being raked through before bed as a fauntling.

Braiding back the princes hair with two plats that met at the back of his head with one leather tie and a bead above it, Bilbo thought he’d done rather a handsome job, Kili sat up and did a spin, showing his brother who nodded approvingly.

Dori sat with Balin across the camp watching with amused smiles.. it made the two brothers seem so young to be cared for in such a way, their smiles turned into muffled laughter as they looked over that their grumpy kings unreadable expressions.

Thorin didn’t know what to think, on the one had he was glad that his nephews were being cared for, on the other he thought bitterly that that was he and Dis’s job and on the other he might have felt slightly jealous but dwarves only have two hands so that last one was the thought he tried to ignore.

Later that evening the camp was still, a few of the party were still half awake having a drink around the fire when Thorin took a deep breath and stood, enough ale in his system to make him slightly braver then he had the right to be. He walked over to Bilbo who was sitting on a log over looking the valley, his pipe in his hand.

Thorin sat beside him, a thick fingered hand resting on the small round shoulder of the hobbit. Thorin was always shocked on the few accessions he had touched the hobbit to feel how small he truely was.

The king cleared his throat.

“Thank you… For looking after them” he nodded to the princes who lay a few meters away, kili laying half on top of his snoring brother like a two man dog pile.

Bilbo looked at the hand on his shoulder then back out at the valley, exhaling a smoke ring “The more time I spend with those two.. the more I realize how young they are… Forgive me for this Thorin but… You shouldn’t have brought them”

Thorin sucked in a breath. His eyes falling to his lap “No… I shouldn’t have…”

Bilbo smiled sadly “come.. You’re worse then Kili, sit down and I’ll brush your hair too”

Thorin thanked Mahal one hundred times that it was dark and his burglar couldn’t see the redness of his cheeks as he sunk down between the Hobbits thighs, staring at a boulder across the valley like it would crack open and reveal a second arkenstone if he glared hard enough… until the Hobbits clever fingers began to unbraid his hair, treating it as gently as he did Kili’s… then all he could do was close his eyes and try to hold in most of the groan of satisfaction that rumbled in his chest.

Let's be honest, Bilbo does too much of what is considered vulgar or flirting in Thorin's culture. And he's going to die of embarrassment soon.
