Summary
On his 88th birthday, Bilbo Baggins receives a gift without a sender, a gift which changes everything...
Bilbo has lived through the canonical Hobbit and quietly raises Frodo in Bag End, when something sends him back to the winter when his parents died. It seems he has been given a new chance at everything, but how long will his good luck last...?
Trigger Warning: Bilbo will remember uncomfortable things (character death, characted hurt, some scary situations).
Safety Net: No major character dies in his new life. If you see a character's name listed, that character will not die.
This story contains kisses and battle wounds, in no particular order. There is also background betting, card games, and pipe smoking, as well as direct transcripts from the movies (Jackson & Walsh & Boyens, 2012, 2013, 2014) and direct quotations from the book (Tolkien, 1937, 1951, 1995).
Here there be feelings - and songs.
Enjoy. 💖

Summary
Lobelia Sackville-Baggins had many regrets when she died. She had done every decent thing a young hobbitlass was expected to, yet it had been unpleasant, unsatisfying, and had at one point ended her up in a prison cell while her own son held The Shire under an occupation.
With her last cough of breath, Lobelia Sackville-Baggins dies filled with regrets...
...only to wake up eighty years younger, unmarried and free to choose her own path. She might need some time to find said path, but Lobelia Bracegirdle refuses to repeat the mistakes of her past. This time, she will be the one to travel and return home with exciting tales to tell...---
Post-canon Lobelia returns through time and chooses a very different path for her life. This Lobelia has reached her umbrella-fighting stage...

Summary
Bilbo Baggins had been betrothed to Lobelia Bracegirdle since birth, but after seeing her in bed with another, Bilbo finds himself seeking a different kind of future - preferably one without her in it.
Fortunately, there is a dwarven lord at a tavern in Bree, looking for an investment partner, and Bilbo Baggins just happens to sit on a very large marriage fund...
TW: Drinking, drunk dealings, cheating (not Thorin/Bilbo), insinuations of sexual harassment (not Thorin/Bilbo), general stupidity.
This may or may not contain 'crack'. I have no idea how humour works, but I do know they will wake up in the same bed within a very short time...
...oh, and they're heading to Erebor. <3Series

Will the Shire ever be the same?Thorin Oakenshield, King Under the Mountain, leader of the quest to recover Erebor, slayer of orcs, and keeper of the peace, lives, but the road to recovery is a bumpy one and a rushed one. The mountain needs its king, but the king has one journey yet to complete.
Will his answers be enough?Two hearts, far apart.
Two lines, burned into their minds:
"I... I love you..."
"I love you too, just keep breathing..."
Was it a lie of mercy to a dying dwarf?
Was it a final confession?
There is only one way to find out...Series
