"ohh Thorin Trusts Bilbo Above His Own Family And Kin Because He Just Loves Him Sooo Much Because I Think

"ohh thorin trusts Bilbo above his own family and kin because he just loves him sooo much because I think romantic love is superior to any other form of love" or maybe it was he was experiencing a severe episode of paranoid psychosis and he implicitly trusted Bilbo because he was the only person in the Company who didn't have any preexisting, longstanding loyalities to him (as a King or brother-in-arms or Family or otherwise) and followed him purely out his own desire to and he saw Bilbo stay by his side even after his contract had ended even though he knew how much he wanted to go home (and had every reason to at that point). maybe it was because he knew Bilbo would had nothing to gain by betraying him (re: no birthright to the crown, no desire for riches or property, etc). Maybe he believed he could confide into Bilbo because he felt like he wasn't responsible for his safety in the same way he felt responsible for his nephews or his kin (as their King), and he no longer need to mantain any sort of formalities or barriers with him (because Thorin is not. his. King).

sorry I just refuse to believe Thorin doesn't love his nephews as much as he loves Bilbo (someone who he'd only known for 6~ months at that point) and I think there's a lot of better ways to explain his behavior here

And somewhere in the undying lands, Frodo is laughing his ass off

sam being elected mayor like 80 bajillion times in a row is so funny because you know after the second or third time hes completely over it and just wants to get back to gardening but he's such an eminently trustworthy kindhearted hobbit chad that he cant STOP getting elected. in a desperate attempt to derail his own campaign at the ripe old age of 85 he confesses to having had hot gay sex with frodo baggins back in the day but all the young gay hobbits are like "based" and he wins in a historic landslide

I need Thilbo fic recs that recognize the cultural differences between hobbits and dwarves. Because dwarves are loud and affectionate species. They slap each other on the back, they hug, the weird headbutt thing Dwalin and Balin do, they make jokes about their friends. They show their affections loudly. They aren’t afraid to show off their love for someone. Dwarves are a proud race and they show that quite often. But hobbits are a more quiet kind of love. Hand holding, forehead kisses, hand kisses, laying your head in their shoulder, falling asleep while they read to you, bouquets of flowers, picnics in a secluded area with all your favorite foods, baking together, reading together, admiring the stars kind of love. Hobbits are much more reserved than Dwarves. They take pride in their hosting skills and gardens. And I NEED to see Bilbo and Thorïn bumbling around trying to follow each others courting traditions and failing miserably RIGHT NOW.
