dets, how did dis and vili meet? and fall in love? how was their relationship like? how have things been going between vili and his sons since they died? or are all of these spoilers because you intend to tell us in the fic? i mean, sansukh is filled with tragic stories and epic love stories and they’re almost definitely one of the top-ranked. it hurts my heart so much to think of dis and vili, really, and i love them so much and want to know everything about them!

Awwwww, they are beautiful, and I am so thrilled you enjoy them! I am hopelessly in love with them both. 

I wrote a headcanony thing on Vili here.

We witness the first meeting between Dis and Vili (through Fris’ eyes) here.

Also, check out the superb artwork by a-sirens-lullaby of Vili here!

I CANNOT APOLOGIZE ENOUGH

Gonna try a munDain headcanon; he was quite the clever, sneaky kid, and since he visited Erebor a LOT and Dis was a Bamf cocky brat, the two of them were pranksters extraordinaire (cause we all know were Kili and Fili got it from) seriously, no one was safe. Obviously the siblings were usually dragged right into it, because Dain and Dis just KNEW Thorin were dying to get in on it despite being the older “responsible kid” and Frerin was half concerned sensible kid, half overeager puppy to get in

 on the fun. Then inevitably Fris would hear of the latest prank (sticky glue on the throne/ in the crowns, epic food fights, piglets storming in on official meetings, shield surfing in the stairs …) and round up her small troublemakers in zero seconds flat – and since the Durins are who they are (Frerin crying, Thorin just staring ashamedly into the floor, Dis failing spectacularly at feigning innocence for all of them) Dain were usually the one who had to try and talk them out of trouble (he actually succeded 1 out of three times – he was almost as smooth as Gimli). 
Then of course all the shit with Smaug and Azanulzibar went down and the remining three had to grow up too fast. I still imagine that Dis and Dain would remain very close friends, being the bestest penpals, trolling Thorin whenever the opportunity presented itself (partly for his grumpy overtights selfs own good but mostly for the heck of it). 
And then when Dis arrived in Erebor again, they would help each other through their grief and Dain especially would be essential in Dis learning how to laugh again (because she needs it desperately, what hasn’t that woman lost omg). 
And then. Once both of them arrives in the halls. Once all the shit with the Ring and the War is over. Once necessary big family talkshow are done. Once Dain and Dis starts getting BORED. Omg, the other dwarves won’t know WHAT hit them (except Fris because she saw it coming for weeks). Heck, I’m sure even Mahal got wide eyes when they pulled of some of the more elaborate pranks. And don’t you doubt they dragged Frerin along into their quest of getting their hands on that complete lexikon of the flower language. They got into a downright war over it against the Ri Brothers of course, because A) There’s no way Oris losing his major blackmail material over Thorin and B) Of course he drags his brothers into it. Dain takes endless joy in how horrified Thorin is over all of this (though Dis is worse than Dain ofc). 
And now this is more of a Dain-Dis friendship headcanon than a MunDain one. Sorry (not sorry).

OMG THAT’S AWESOME. THAT IS JUST AWESOME.

*grips table until it creaks* WRITE. THE THING.
