Thorin: *giving Bilbo the second most valuable thing in the mountain*

The other dwarves in the background: just fucking around

[daughteroftheteleri]

🥲for me this is the end of story so I paint this(so much pain(didn't expect this when i started reading

[daughteroftheteleri]

Okay guys

Okay I love looking through the wikis because I get certain information like this gem:

Bifur, Bofur and Bombur were Thorin’s Honour Guards.

Examples included Thorin showing up on Bilbos doorstep with (and getting crushed by) Bifur, Bofur and Bombur. And in the flaming pinecone scene they followed Thorin up the same tree to protect him.

Now this also makes sense in the movies mostly with how Bifur is seen helping Fili on his horse and other instances with the three, BUT MOST OF ALL MY FAVOURITE IDEA COMING FROM THIS!!!

Bofur was assigned to Bilbo by Thorin.

And yes I firmly believe in Bofur thinking Thorin’s a massive dick for how he treats Bilbo but he definitely shipped them from the moment Thorin ordered him to look out for Bilbo. Also explains why Bofurs always goin “WHERES BILBO MY BOSS IS GONNA FUCKIN KILL ME!”

Bagginshield thought, since Bilbo titled his own memoir’s “there and back again” I can see the dwarves remembering his story simply as “the hobbit” and having their own telling of how a hobbit did so many amazing things for their people. Also since they’re dwarves they can see that mithril shirt was 100% a courting gift and make sure to mention how Bilbo was their king’s One and would’ve been their consort had Thorin lived. Bilbo has no clue until years later that their telling of his journey is told as a tragic romance

Ori in the Chamber of Mazarbul

I love how Dis is like the collective hallucination of this fandom.

She’s barely mentioned outside of guides and then then she’s a foot note but some how she is as important a character to us as any member of the company.

That’s our dwarrow dam. Our girl. Our cool bad ass mama bear

NO THE FUCK HE DOES NOT

what a gross fucking concept for a blog. people are facing a fucking genocide and this person is making it about fandom?? fuck off that’s actually evil

[daughteroftheteleri]

obviously anything's better than canon but even in everyone lives AU dis would still be going through it like imagine you're dis, you've not seen your family in a year? possibly longer, you finally make it back to your reclaimed ancestral home, your eldest son's in a wheelchair after being thrown off a tower, your youngest is courting a fucking elf of all things, said elf has got the runestone you gave to said son - rude - your brother, who was supposed to be keeping your children safe, has somehow cured himself of the family curse/hereditary mental illness and is married to a goddamn hobbit, a fussy little creature who you're honestly not sure of at first but who apparently saved your brother's - as well as the rest of the company's - life several times and scolds your two boys like he's known them their whole life and by Mahal they actually listen to him - ALSO the wizard found your father who was presumed dead but was actually alive but is now definitely dead and it turns out that the old bastard's last words were all about how much he loved your dumbass older brother, but had nothing to say about you, his daughter! I mean get this poor woman a beer she deserves it

Aah you are so kind! I was so lucky to have been partnered with you, your artwork is so stunning <3 <3 <3

This year I participated in @thorinsspringforge and illustrated @daughteroftheteleri's excellent fic The World Still Turns, which you can find here. This is a scene of Thorin telling the story of The Lonely Mountain to Kili, in a way that parallels the way Bilbo will later do the same for Frodo.

I love how collectively The Hobbit fandom is so low key obsessed with Dís, even though she’s barely mentioned in the original text, and not even by name in the films.

She’s Bilbo’s bestie, she’s Thorin’s no-nonsense sister, she’s Fili and Kili’s loving mother, she’s a warrior, she’s a diplomat, she loves tea and music, she’s a wonderful dancer, she’s the queen of our hearts!

Between us we’ve made up this whole amazing, vibrant character with the crumbs we were given, and I just think that’s such a beautiful example of why I adore this community!

Melkor Bauglir, of the beginning of days

Melkor descended into Arda, desiring kingship for himself and rule over the world that he and the Ainur had sung into being. He left the shame he felt beneath Ilúvatar's words in the void, and painted himself as something healed and beautiful. Only to discover that no other wished for Arda beneath his rulership.

Morgoth, ever after

Melkor fled from Arda, and returned later in secret, with several Ainur who had earlied felt attuned to his song. In time, Melkor launched war upon the Valar but was in the end defeated and held captive for three ages of the world.

My TSF25 fic is here! :D

So excited to have participated in @thorinsspringforge and I'm even more excited to share that @secretmellowart did the illustration for this fic! They're so talented, be sure to check out their other Tolkien work on their other blog, @retellingthehobbit. Be sure to read the rest of the collection too!

The world still turns

After the climactic battle of Azanulbizar, Thorin son of Thrain, newly crowned king of the longbeard dwarves and newly named ‘Oakenshield’ for his bravery in battle, returns home with a heavy heart. Having just lost his brother, grandfather and friend, he is faced with the harsh reality of having to tell his beloved sister Dís that her husband is dead, and that her five year old and eight year old sons will be forced to grow up without a father. When Dís reacts to this news by shutting herself off from the world, it is up to Thorin to take care of the boys himself, a task he is woefully unprepared for. With Fili and Kili both processing their grief in different, equally challenging ways, Thorin must come to terms with his own emotions before he can guide them through their’s.
