Thorin Oakenshield slowly wakes to the sounds of Bilbo and his nephews softly talking, colder and heavier than he has ever been in his life, but before he can get a word out Bilbo is punching him square on the nose. Quite rightly, as it turns out, because he’s been dead for a week and has just sat up in his tomb with no warning whatsoever.
Following the aftermath of the Battle of the Five Armies where Thorin must fight with his own guilt and mind over his choices and what they mean and meant, where he must decide whether or not to rule, and how to live with himself after dying. Focusing on many different characters and relationships, as well as building on the lore of Erebor and Middle Earth. A story about coming home.

You’re right, sometimes we all need that. I do, god knows I do. I’m incredibly grateful and just SO glad that what I wrote could do that in some way for you. Thank you, thank you so so so much for telling me this, for reaching out to me and letting me know.
*HUGS*
(ALSO I CHECKED OUT THAT TUMBLR AND I AM DROWNING IN PRETTY CATS OMFG THIS IS WONDERFUL)
We finally got the DVD from Hobbitcon, which means we can finally show you our Moria skit! We had a lot of fun doing this, and were so happy that it was so well-received (and by that I mean the amount of “how dare you"s we got afterwards xD)
ANON AGAIN??? why did i tlel you i was drunk, i apologize. i am making fool of self. love everything you’ve created and this little mini community, it fills my cold angry center with joy, everyone here is beautiful. good night
AWWW NONNIE, LOVELY DEAR SLIGHTLY-TANKED NONNIE.
Heh. I love everyone in this bar 😉
(me rn – and yeah, that is an apron)
i desperately DESPERATELY need a musical/musician gigolas au, I don’t mind admitting. I know shit about Band AU, bc I am a string player and a vocalist, so if it =/= orchestra or choir, i am a newborn baby deer.
BUT I WOULD READ THE SHIT OUT OF ANY MUSICAL/MUSICIAN GIGOLAS AU, I DON’T MIND TELLING YOU
Orchestra Au w lead oboist Legolas and double-bass player Gimli? Gimme.
Choir Au with bass Gimli (the only one who can keep the others in tune dammit) and soloist tenor Legolas? Gimme.
String Quartet Au with First Violinist Legolas, Second Violinist Aragorn, Violist Eomer and Cellist Gimli?
Gimme.
Barbershop Quartet Au with Bass Gimli and Lead Legolas? Gimme.
A capella Au, a nontet (9 singers) called ‘The Fellowship” GUESS WHO IS THE BARITONE, GUESS WHO SINGS TENOR
Classical soloist Au with opera countertenor Legolas and pianist (and company accompanist) Gimli? Gimme.
Stage Au with renowned bass-baritone Gimli and side-stage dresser Legolas?
Gimme.
Heck, if anyone thinks that any of these are worth looking at/investigating, you are more than welcome to em, or stick them on the 1000 Fics Gigolas challenge. DO IT! MAKE ALL THE GIGOLAS HAPPEN. ALWAYS.
I want all of this
I need a fic where Gimli and Legolas play bassoon and oboe respectively and the poor band director has to deal with the chaos in the double reeds (so many contests to see who can breathe the least!). But eventually they bond over reeds.
yesssss fucking perfection
I THOUGHT OF MORE
composer!Gimli and conductor!Legolas
Piano trio AU, where Aragorn is the pianist, Legolas is violin and Gimli is cellist, and we don’t agree on the tempo EVER
Opera!AU, where Legolas is a countertenor and Gimli is the bass (and Handel is a sadist)
Mozart Horn Concerto!AU where Gimli is the horn soloist and Legolas is the conductor and stop showing off you bloody brass-brained idiot
Lieder/art-song AU: we have a recital to put together in two weeks, I know I’m a baritone but can we please sing anything other than Schubert, Vaughan-Williams or Mahler PLEASE I’m begging you here (Legolas as the pianist ofc)
SWAP IT and Legolas as the tenor and Gimli as the pianist, and SHIT NO I WILL NOT BLOODY PLAY SCHUBERT’S ERLKONIG AT THAT HELLISH SPEED are you bonkers
String Quartet AU in which Cellist!Gimli will kill a man if they have to play Pachelbel’s Canon one more fucking time
ALL THE GIGOLAS MUSICIAN AUS. ALL OF THEM
Competitive conservatory students AU. They’re both gunning for first chair/concert master.
Gimli struggles with solfege, Legolas struggles with written theory. They tutor each other.
There’s only one one practice room available and they both think they deserve it more than the other.
Gimli is an education major and he’s studying Legolas’s instrument. And gets tutoring/assistance.
One is the singer. The other is the accompanist. They disagree on interpretation.
Gimli as the piano tuner all the other students look down on, until Legolas realizes how fucking talented Gimli’s ear is.
GLORIOUSSSS
i am in such need of these i stg, gimme gimme gimme
Composer!Gimli and singer!Legolas – bloody DO IT LIKE I WROTE IT
Jazz band AU: Saxophonist Gimli and lead singer Legolas – “Stop playing your fill or your punches OVER my melody, you jerk, they’re meant to go IN-BETWEEN THE PHRASES!!!”
Opera AU: this is my worst language, I can’t fucking sing in this language, HELP ME or our big duet is ruined
renowned singing teacher Gimli giving a masterclass, holy shit that tall blond is one incredible baroque tenor why isn’t this guy singing the repertoire that fits him, why are they pushing him towards the heavy romantics????
We’re the Middle-Earth equivalent of the Three Tenors, known as the Three Hunters, and you keep on extending and extending and EXTENDING the rubato in the final verse of O Sole Mio you selfish prick, don’t you need to BREATHE
