    Summary

    In the evening before the Battle of the five armies, after Gandalf and Bilbo talked to Thranduil and Bard, the latter two stay together in Thranduil's tent. A moment of curiousity leads to unexpected intimacy.

     

    "You may touch it if you want.", he said.

    Thranduil's gaze snapped up from his beard to his eyes in surprise.

    "Touch... it? Your beard?", he repeated in a tone of disbelief that Bard had never heard in his voice before. Though he certainly did not seem repulsed by the idea.

    "Yes, if you want to.", Bard confirmed, again stepping closer.

    Summary

    Bilbo still feels the branding cold of the Fell Winter. Thorin still feels the numbing burn of the dragon’s breath.

    Thorin takes on the responsibility of training Bilbo—making him “less of a liability”—but their subterranean needs soon surface: temperature has to reach equilibrium eventually.
