I just want a oneshot where Kili finds himself in a bit of trouble w orcs or wargs/both and he’s in need of “a little” (a lot) help. Reader, who’s usually incredibly timid, quiet, and keeps to themselves, is suddenly this badass bitch who jumps in to protect him, swords a-swinging and all. Like who woulda thought this wee quiet lass could lob heads off of orcs? Her admiration and affection for Kili quells her obvi. And Kili is just absolutely whipped for her. Like she’s a woman after his heart, clearly. Afterwards, the company is like, “woah, didn’t know it did that.” It’s an unwritten rule that you don’t underestimate the quiet ones. Thank you and goodnight
This is a request from @beatriceshadowmarvel2! Thank you so much for sending this in!
Request: “How about a one shot where Fili gives up his title as heir to the throne to travel with the reader after Thorin forbids the heir of the throne to marry a daughter of a man?”
This could have been taken in so many different and great ways, so I hope you like the route I took with it!
Characters: Human!Reader, Fili, Thorin, Kili
Warnings: None just a little angst
Word Count: 1192
“You cannot possibly mean that, Uncle. It goes without saying that she is the only one that I care for.”
“I mean what I said, Fili. You are heir to the throne, Y/N is but a human. The discourse that such a courtship would cause is inarguable,” Thorin remarked, his expression stern and unyielding. “A human cannot take the throne of Erebor.”
Fili scowled and shook his head. “Discourse or not, there is no one else that I would rather have by my side than Y/N. An exception will have to be made, Uncle.”
What had begun as a civil discussion of his duties as heir had very quickly taken a turn for the worse when marriage had come up. Fili had been more than eager to share his wishes of courting and eventually marrying Y/N, but he did not get the reaction he had expected from Thorin. It seemed that he would prioritize his duty as king over his bond as an uncle. He had profusely refused and turned down the idea.
“No such exception will be made, lest you wish tension between the dwarven realms. They will not accept such,” Thorin said, standing from his seat to approach him. Fili drew back a few steps.
“They would have no choice,” he argued firmly. His uncle’s expression only darkened.
“I forbid it, Fili. There are plenty of dwarrowdams of high standing that would be suitable. Seek them out.”
Fili was not sure what was worse; being told that his love for Y/N was forbidden, or that he ought to seek out a dam just to appease the other realms. That would not happen.
“If you are not willing to consider otherwise, then I suppose Kili has much to learn about his duties as the new heir,” Fili declared, his resolve solidified. He knew what he wanted for his future and Y/N would be apart of it. King or otherwise, she would be by his side.
---------------
“He has been gone for quite some time now,” you spoke aloud, another arrow leaving the bow in your hands and embedding itself deep into the trunk of a tree that you had been using as a target.
Beside you, Kili snorted and patted you on the shoulder, offering you a look of feigned sympathy. “Is it so difficult being away from my dearest brother that you cannot focus on anything else?”
“I only worry that your uncle has suffocated him in royal duties, Kili. Am I wrong for being concerned?” You turned your head and cast him a narrowed look, nocking another arrow on the bowstring and taking aim.
His lips twisted into a grin and he stepped back. “Do you share the same worry for me when I am swept up into my duties?”
You smirked slightly and let the arrow fly. A loud thunk sounded as the arrow struck the tree just below the last. “I can’t say that I do, Ki.”
If you had ever seen a pout, Kili’s face was the epitome of it. Your eyes did not linger on him for long as a familiar blond dwarf all but stormed into the courtyard. A smile tugged at the corner of your lips and you handed the bow back to Kili before moving to meet Fili.
“Y/N, I must speak with you,” he said, his gaze slipping over towards his brother, “alone.”
You furrowed your eyebrows and watched as Kili took the hint and left the courtyard after cooing something about a ‘lovers quarrel’. Fili couldn’t help but think that it was quite the contrary.
Fili took your hands into his own and his gaze met yours. You could see the thoughts and emotions whirling in his eyes.
“What is wrong, Fili? Did something happen--”
“Run away with me,” he cut you off, squeezing your hands. “We could travel; just you and I.
“Fili, what is this all about? What about your duties as the heir to the throne?” You interjected, unable to hide the concern in your voice. You had not seen him look so distraught, nor had you ever heard him suggest running away. IT was far too sudden to be a simple coincidence.
He had always been rather proud of being heir and he often spoke of his hopes of being King with you by his side--it had taken you some time getting used to the idea, but you cared for him far more than you had cared for anyone. It was rather safe to assume you would do anything for him and he would do anything for you.
“It is not something I wish to burden you with,” he insisted with a shake of his head, his eyes downcast. He lifted a hand and his fingers gently brushed through your hair, twirling a strand around his fingers. “But I do wish to have you by my side for the rest of my life, if you would have me.”
A smile slowly graced your lips as you cupped his cheeks in your hands and lifted his head to meet his gaze once more. “If that is so, then your burdens are my burdens to share, Fili. Where has this all come from?”
Before you had even the chance to move, his forehead came to rest against your own and his hands rested against your cheeks. “Thorin has forbid me from being with you as heir of the throne. I do not wish to be king if you are not my queen, Y/N.”
It really should not have surprised you, but it did. You had known of the culture and its traditions, but you had not thought that it would matter as Thorin, and the others, had been kind to you. Perhaps they had not thought what you shared with Fili was real.
“Fili, you’re the heir. I’m only a human--a commoner, no less,” you protested softly, guilt settling in your gut. You had not intended to cause such tension between Thorin and Fili, nor had you meant to cause any trouble.
Fili didn’t know how to tell you just how wrong you were. You weren’t just that to him, you were so much more. You meant so much more.
“I would not have anyone else, Y/N. I wish to share a future with you and if that does not include being king then so be it. Kili will do just as well,” Fili declared, his words firm yet sincere.
He was being completely serious, that much you knew. The fondness that shone in his eyes was amplified by the declaration he had made to you. He wished to share a life with you...and you undeniably felt the same. There was no life--no future--without Fili in it.
It was not the most traditional way of proposing a courtship, but it seemed that today they would put aside tradition in favor of their love. Fili pressed the gentlest of kisses to your forehead, nose, and then your lips with a little more fervor.
“Where shall we travel to?” You asked, breaking the kiss and smiling fondly at him.
Did a few black and white studies of my favourite boys over the past few days, mostly trying to figure out how noses work and how to render facial hair in my style :D
Hello! If you're still accepting headcanon requests, could you please write some headcanons about Bofur, Fili and Kili falling in love with a tomboy, or generally more masculine/androgynous Human woman? And like she's come to live in Erebor (in a Everyone Lives/Nobody Dies AU) to learn blacksmithing and crafting and they're just amazed because they've always heard of Human Women acting all feminine and stuff, but here's one dressing like a man and not caring about femininity? Thanks so much!
I can certainly give it a shot! I’ve never had a request like this so forgive me if it’s not the best! <3 If you would like headcanons, drabbles, or one shots for any characters as well, ask away! Requests are open!
Bofur:
-Out of the company, Bofur is easily the most accepting of the revelation that you are not like the atypical women that they have come across or heard of. In fact, he’s rather intrigued that you don’t adorn a gown or a slip as most women do, nor do you turn down tasks that the men would usually do.
-He does not hesitate to strike up conversations about craftsmanship or smithing with you once he hears that you are interested in such and he often tells the tales of the things made in Erebor. He likes seeing such bright expressions on your face. It also helps that there is a common interest between you.
-At one point, Bofur offers to teach you how to whittle small crafts out of wood as it is a good start for craftsmanship. He often uses these ‘lessons’ as an excuse to get to know more about you.
-You can bet Bofur would be incredibly thrilled to hear you intend to stay in Erebor and he is the absolute first to offer to mentor you in crafting and blacksmith--even if he may not be the best suited for it.
-Bofur is well aware that he is whipped (in love) and though he is often not one to hold his tongue, when it comes to confessing or showing his affections, he gets rather shy and tongue-twisted.
-The lessons in crafting and smithing are well worth it though, as he gets to spend more time with you and thus garners the courage to share his affections.
-His first gift to you is a scarf much like his own that he personally knit and crafted in colors similar to that of his own, but meshed with colors that suited you as well. It is shortly after that he asks to court you.
Kili:
-Like Bofur, Kili is incredibly accepting of who you are and he quite likes that he doesn’t have to feel like he’s stepping on toes or bothering you by his very extrovert and unyielding personality.
-You make him feel like he can be himself. That’s one of the very first things he realizes he likes about you; you are uncaring of what others think and are just yourself.
-He’s not as much of a craftsman as his kin are as he’s more of a warrior than anything, but he does know the basics. He likes to show off to you by nocking and fletching arrows for his bow--which he proudly announces to you that he crafted himself.
-Kili, often impressed by your skills and willingness to learn, is always eager to express such. He could just be in passing and he’d find some way to slip in a praise.
-He knows that smithing can be a bit hazardous without the right attire, especially for a human, so you can bet he offers up his own clothes until you can have some of your own made (he’s also very into you and has no complaints in letting you borrow his own clothes, even if it’s just a tunic). He likes it.
-Kili is really not shy at all, so it probably doesn’t come as a surprise when he confesses his affections and asks to court you. He’s never met anyone like you and he doesn’t want to lose you.
Fili:
-It is not secret that women are incredibly scarce in the dwarf race, so they are very well protected and looked after--kept a secret even. Fili, heir to the throne of Erebor, while still respectful, sometimes struggles to separate tradition from you.
-Often, he’ll insist on helping you do something even if you don’t need it because he’s been raised that way. He means well, really.
-It takes a little while for him to put traditions aside (and rewire his brain), but once he really gets to know you, he finds that he likes that your not some simple maiden and he’s actually quite interested in what you aspire to do in Erebor.
-Hearing that you intend to take up craftsmanship or smithing, Fili is all about it. Most of his favored weapons were crafted and forged by himself and he even offers to show you how to make your own if it’s ever an interest of yours.
-Fili would also try and convince you to spar with him with said weapons because he’s a warrior and like crafting is of interest to you, fighting is of interest to him. He also likes that it gives him a reason to spend more time with you and also not have to worry about offending your honor. (Other dwarves don’t think it is right of him to spar a woman)
-Fili would most definitely confess his attraction while forging weapons or sparring in a passing comment or something nonchalant. He would present you with a well-crafted dagger that he made himself and ask to court you.
I hope this is alright for a first! I had a super busy week and I’ve been working on this late at night to try and get it out so hopefully it’s to your liking! I love these three so much so I was nervous I wouldn’t do them justice aha
I’ve been incredibly busy this weekend so I haven’t had much time to write! I’ll hopefully get one or two requests done tonight! ☺️ I’ve gotten some really good ones! Keep ‘em coming!
