    Summary

    Though not well known outside of the Shire, it has long since been the case that Hobbits cannot survive the loss of their soulmates once they choose to let the bond form, their grief Withering them away only days or weeks after their other half dies. Most Shire-folk refuse to take the risk, finding love elsewhere, but if this quest has proven anything, it's that Bilbo is not like most Shire-folk.
    The battle is over, and Thorin is not dead. Bilbo seems to be Withering anyway.
    .
    Óin can't help but chuckle when he enters the healing halls to find Bilbo asleep next to Thorin. It's hardly the first time their Hobbit has found his way to Thorin's side since they moved from the battlefield to the mountain, supporting his One as Thorin slumbered on.
    It was not the first time he'd found Bilbo sleeping by Thorin's side.
    It was the first time Bilbo didn't wake.

    You are as much a Took as you are a Baggins, and after your parents died you forced down a side of you that...”
    “And who’s fault was that?”
    .
    Thorin could not get the conversation out of his head, the implications, the harshness of Bilbo's tone. Bilbo never snapped, not like that, and not at Gandalf. Bilbo also almost never spoke of his parents, and with his One clearly upset, he could not drop it. He would not..

    Summary

    After the Battle of the Five Armies, Bilbo Baggins chooses to remain in Erebor with Thorin rather than return to the Shire, settling into a new life at the King’s side as the Mountain is rebuilt. In the years that follow, Bilbo becomes deeply woven into dwarven court life, beloved by many and cherished fiercely by Thorin—though both still carry the lingering shadows of the journey that brought them together.

    That fragile peace is disrupted when an unexpected caravan arrives bearing Hobbits—and devastating news. Frodo Baggins, Bilbo’s young cousin, has been left in neglect after the deaths of his parents, despite being named in Drogo’s will to come under Bilbo’s care. Small, malnourished, and frightened, the child is brought before the King under troubling circumstances, forcing Bilbo and Thorin to confront both the failures of the Shire and the immediate need to protect him.

    Summary

    So, maybe running off from the Shire to walk back to the Lonely Mountain on foot had been a stupid idea.

    Or: Bilbo decides he‘s sick of his life in the Shire and spontaneously bolts to head for the Lonely Mountain. Luckily, he happens upon a delegation of dwarves from the Blue Mountains he can accompany on their way to Erebor.
