Summary: Thorin has been struggling between rebuilding the home he fought so hard to reclaim and dealing with the hardships the war had wrought upon him physically and mentally. However, he is sure about one thing: his desire to court the hobbit of his heart. Of course, nothing can ever be simple for the newly established dwarf king as an old friend from the past returns, and while Thorin wants to help him, watching Marlok grow closer to Bilbo threatens to sour any rekindling of their friendship.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New Chapter: Chapter 2- A Jealous Friend
“By order of King Thorin II, son of Thrain, son of Thror, reveal yourself and state your business here!” Dwalin demanded.
There was a murmur of voices above them before a gangplank plopped down no more than inches away from the nearest soldier’s boot. He gripped his sword tighter, preparing to give the order to take the ship when he heard a noise. A noise that he knew very well, and had his heart stilling in his chest. Bilbo.
Sure enough, there was the hobbit, looking glorious. Like a sun setting over the Misties, his hair caught in the firelight spinning it to gold which his tunic, a dark orange only seemed to amplify. His cheeks were flushed, and his grin was wide, and for the first time since learning he was on that ship, Thorin felt like he could take a deep breath. He stepped forward, intending to be the first one there to greet him, only to pause.
Bilbo was not paying them any mind at all. His head was even turned back to someone behind him as he laughed at something they had said. A hand came down on Bilbo’s shoulders, and for a moment, Thorin was blind to everything but that hand. Was Bilbo a prisoner? A bargaining chip? Did this scumbag pirate really think he could take his hobbit and get away with it? Thorin grit his teeth, prepared to fight tooth and nail to take him back when he followed the hand to the owner, and he could only blink in astonishment.
“No, really! Went sailing twenty, no maybe thirty yards, only to land right in the middle of the biggest pile of shit!”
Thorin knew that story. In fact, he had lived that story. He remembered going back to his Adad (Father) and Amad (Mother) covered in pig shit, trying to explain that he had only been trying to ride the biggest, meanest boar they had in the pen thanks to a traveling Iron Hills delegation. The ensuing tongue lashing had been humiliating enough had his friend not been standing right there. A dwarf with mischievous eyes and a wisp of red beard on his chin. A royal of another kingdom who Thorin only spent two, maybe three, summers with, but it was a name he would never forget. And looking now at the fully grown dwarf connected to the hand on Bilbo’s shoulder, Thorin realized it was possible for a person to change so much, and, at the same time, not so much at all.
“Marlok?” He questioned incredulously.

hobbits were the peak of civilization in tolkien verse. jobs were Gardening, Stall At The Farmer’s Market, or Mailman. Shoes OFF, capris ON, 6 meals a day, high and fat as all shit. Names like Daddy Twofoot….why the fuck are we horny for elves

please stop reblogging sylvia plath poetry
For ppl asking why she’s an anti black, anti Semite. She has used the n word and compared her depression to the holocaust
Even not counting her poetry her private journals are full of disgusting, overblown antisemitism. She didn’t just use Jewish people for her metaphors, she outright hated them irl and yet decided to use their suffering for her own gain
here’s a source with some quotes
okay, I’m Jewish and I appreciate this sentiment. and if someone wants to cut out Sylvia Plath, go for it, I get it.
But. by this logic we’d also need to stop reblogging TS Eliot, Oscar Wilde, and Shakespeare quotes. Virginia Woolf wrote anti-semetic things in her private journals, too. If you only want to read classic poets who liked Jews and black people, that’s fine, but like. good luck? Sylvia Plath isn’t an exception.
idk. Tumblr’s attitude of “consume nothing problematic” just doesn’t work if you’re part of a group that most culture-creators over the last few centuries have hated by default. For people actually in those groups, it’s not like the only two choices are 1) worship authors who hate you or 2) completely cut the majority of literature out of your life. You learn to read critically and acknowledge flaws where you find them.
anyway, as a Jewish woman, I would much rather see a version of this post that said “please read Sylvia Plath poetry critically because she’s anti black and antisemetic” than just “stop reblogging Sylvia Plath poetry.”
IMO, reblog Sylvia Plath all you want, just not unthinkingly.
I’m reblogging this now because I’m seeing anti-Virginia Woolf discourse lately due to the antisemitism in her journals and like… as a Jewish person who loves Virginia Woolf’s writing and an English teacher who knows that pretty much every writer of the classics is Problematic just…chill pls
The point isn’t to never consume media that isn’t ideologically pure. That’s never the point. Were that the goal, we would NEVER be able to consume any media. Nothing is ever ideologically pure, especially as time goes on and our social consciousness expands.
We should be telling people instead, “Be critical as you read this person’s work. They held bigoted views. Understand how that is reflected in their work, and be mindful of it. Be critical, be thoughtful”
Compelling others to not engage with something at ALL on ideological grounds is in the same vein as burning books. We should be compelling others to be critical and mindful, not narrow and willfully ignorant.
I want to make my own small contribution to this wonderful pairing...

happy pride month 🏳️🌈
Tumblr gets to see if first
Practising more scene like scenarios and this scene lives rent free in my head.
As does most of lotr
I know " woke " might tell you if you can do that but fairies really only eat plants and healthy food so it would not be possible for them to be overweight, fat. or chubby
oh...fairies aren't. they aren't real
My fat fairy ass eating the sprinkles off of donuts and sipping on sprite puddles
fairies r fat as shit off nectar
Obsessed with the idea that you can't get fat off plants.
#i want everyone to know this is a post that breached containment and was originally about the sims 4#and that the fairy in question was a sim who Wasn't Even Fat#the sims 4 was putting out a pack that was including fairies and OP made a fairy that had like.#a very Average Human Body (ie she just wasn't Rail Thin. but was also not Fat. just had a body with some fat existing on it)#and anon still came in swinging with this#so not only is anon making some Definitive Law about a made up entity#but they were also telling someone they were playing with dolls in their video game wrong#which imo makes it all the sillier#(though also more Bleak knowing that anon saw a Very Average Body for a woman and saw that as Fat)
That makes the whole thing so so much funnier
This year for pride month I want trans people to be alive. Thank you.
