“If wishes were pigs we’d all be riding…”

here’s another wish of mine. Babysitter Fili doting on little Sam. ;3;

And don’t worry-Merri’s not in huge trouble. He just needs to say he’s sorry for throwing that clump of dirt at Sam.

OH KAZ THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU, THIS IS SO SWEET AND ADORABLE AND GORGEOUS

*punches the air, yodels in delight*

YESSSSSSSSSSSS. naughty Merry, being naughty! And ohhhhhh, golden lion-prince, and the tiniest lion of the Shire, HELP my heart, it cannot possibly grow any furtherrrr

Fili’s expression here gives me wings ❤

Fili and Kili totally have dolls in Bofur’s shop. The boys watch the dolls’ antics from the Halls and proudly tell stories of the best ones. The time Gimizh sent his Kili “sledding”down the stairs on one of Gimris’ medical books was a highlight. Fili is not pleased with the amount of chewing his toy receives from Frerinith. His poor arm is work to a nub.

Tbh I think Gimli would rescue and repair the Fili and Kili dolls.

He still misses his cousins.

Thorin and Frerin are giving Dain more of the tour of the Halls and they decide to stop for a pint at one of the many bars. Dain is surprised to find Thrain, Fris, Nain, and Daeris already there. It turns out this place is famous for afterlife!dwarf karaoke. Fris and Daeris are an award-winning combo, and Nain and Thrain are there to cheer and hold flowers. Frerin is proud, Thorin is resigned/amused.

AAAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA Fris and Daeris doing the ‘Total Eclipse of the Heart’ bwaaaaaaaa

(Fili and Kili are banned. The bar is run by Borin. He Does Not Forget.)

Dain would immediately request the Dwarven equivalent of Sinatra’s ‘My Way’ and proceed to roar it with great sentiment – and with the whole audience roaring along, ofc.

*mad cackling*

Thorin kills Azog the Defiler, but at the cost of his life. His nephews mourn, as Fili, blinded in one eye from his brush with death on Ravenhill, is crowned King Under the Mountain. He will see Erebor restored, and while some grumble at his freeness with the wealth of the mountain in aiding others, none will ever say that he might fall to gold sickness. Erebor will know peace, under him.

Meanwhile, Bard the Bowman heroically have his life fighting to save the people of Laketown, now Dale. Queen Sigrid is crowned, the eldest heir of Girion, and the daughter of the Dragonslayer. She is firm, and crafty, and any who doubt her soon gain a strong respect for her caring heart and quick mind. She is grieving for her father, and trying her best to raise her siblings after tragedy; but she is strong.

The Elvenking fought like a hurricane, but was overwhelmed by a swarm of orcs as he was thrown from his mount. His body was found hours after the battle, in a circle of mutilated orcs. His son, who has never been the type for politics, puts aside his joy in patrolling with the guard and takes up his father’s crown. Legolas Thranduilion is perhaps not the best of kings, but he is kind, well-liked, and will not lead his people astray

YOU ASKED FOR THIS

Dets’ reaction: I DID, I DID ASK FOR THIS

augh yessss THE DELICIOUS DEVASTATION

[FRIS]

There are moments that the words don’t reach

There is suffering too terrible to name

You hold your child as tight as you can

And push away the unimaginable

The moments when you’re in so deep

It feels easier to just swim down

[EREBOR CITIZENS]

The Lady Dis moves up north

And learns to live with the unimaginable

[DIS]

I spend hours in the smithy.

I walk alone through the stores.

And it’s quiet up north

…I never liked the quiet before.

I tend to their graves on Sundays

A sign to Mahal at the door

Then I pray…that never used to happen before

[FRIS/ FEMALE CITIZENS]

If you see her in the halls

Walking by herself, talking by herself

Have pity.

[DIS]

Nidoyith, did you like it up north?

Was it quiet up north?

[CITIZENS]

She is working through the unimaginable.

[MALE DWARVES]

Her hair is gone grey.  She passes every day.

They say she walks the length of the city.

[DIS]

You knock me out, I fall apart.

[CITIZENS]

Can you imagine?

[THORIN FROM MAHAL’S HALLS]

Look at where you are, look at where you started.

I know I don’t deserve this, my sister

But hear me out: that would be enough.

If I could spare their lives!

If I could trade their lives for mine!

They’d be standing there right now.

And you would smile, that would be enough.

…I don’t pretend to know, the challenges you’re facing

I know there’s no replacing what you’ve lost, and you need time.

But I’m not afraid.  I know you, namadith.

[looks to Gimli] Just let him stay here by your side.

…That would be enough.

[CITIZENS]

If you see him in the street.

Walking by her side, talking by her side.

Have pity.

[GIMLI]

Aunt Dis, do you like it up north?

It’s quiet up north.

[CITIZENS]

He is trying to do the unimaginable.

See them walking through the park, long after dark

Taking in the sights of the city.

[THRAIN]

Look around, look around! Oh, nathith…

[CITIZENS[

They are trying to do the unimaginable.

[FRIS]

There are moments that the words don’t reach.

There’s a grace too powerful to name.

We push away what we can never understand.

They are standing in the tombs now.

Gimli by my Dis’ side.

…She takes his hand.

[DIS]

*smiles down at Thorin’s grave for the first time*…It’s quiet up north.

[CITIZENS/DWARVES OF MAHAL’S HALLS]

Forgiveness! Can you imagine?

Forgiveness! Can you imagine?

If you see him in the street, walking by her side.

Talking by her side, have pity.

They are going through the unimaginable.

How different you think the quest/Thorin’s life would’ve been had Frerin survived the battle and lived by his side?

oooooh.

Very different, to be honest. I think Thorin would have been less sombre, less inclined to be alone in his thoughts. He would have laughed more readily. 

I suspect that Frerin would have smoothed over a lot of ruffled feathers during the Quest. I can imagine our quick, cheerful Dawning Sun being his ray-of-sunshine self and charming the socks off every Elf… perhaps not Lindir, of course, but a few food-fights and a few barbed comments towards Elrond (”he made no mention of you”) might have been forgiven far more readily when the nice blond Dwarf is doing some diplomatic schmoozing. 

I doubt Frerin would have failed to spot a frikking gigantic stone dwarf staircase.

IDK, there’s a few ways it could play out, Nonnie! Frerin might also succumb to gold-sickness, or he might not. The way I write him, he’s a peacemaker by nature… and so Bilbo might have had help in his plan. 

I tell you something I know in my bones, though – there’s no way that Frerin would have let Thorin and his nephews (who after all, would have known him, and loved him) GO UP TO RAVENHILL WITHOUT HIM
