“True evil is…above all things seductive. When the Devil knocks at your door he doesn’t have cloven hoofs, he is beautiful, and offers you your heart’s desire in whispered airs. Like a siren, beckoning you to ruinous shore.”

okay so in the book when bilbo was able to break out the dwarves from the elvenking's dungeon, thorin said something about how they will be for ever at bilbo's service. and i think about how erebor did not disclose bilbo's identity and whereabouts to the servant of sauron, how some dwarves helped him in his 111th birthday, and how when some dwarves passed by the shire they looked on the place with wonder and gratitude for there was the hobbit who helped the dwarves restore erebor

#they said he was their unofficial consort who just happens to live in the shire #it also says something about dwarven loyalty bcs man thorin was not kidding when he said that #and the other dwarves in the company delivered #thorin oakenshield #bilbo baggins #thilbo #bagginshield #the hobbit

In a lot of folklore, faries are hurt by or reppeled by iron

Concept:

Due to Bilbos' fae heritage, he's allergic to iron.

He would say it irritates his skin, but truthfully, it burns him. Even small brushes against the metal make it look like he was burned by a hot brand for days.

He obviously doesn't think to bring it up with anyone. It didn't seem important until Thorin's hand gently brushed the back of his, and Bilbo pulled back with a hiss.

Thorin stared wide-eyed (and a little heartbroken) for a second until he spotted the strip of red skin Bilbo was trying to hide.

"You're hurt, when did that happen?" Thorin went to take the hobbits hand for a better look, but Bilbo skittered back in a slight panic.

"Ah no it-It..well I think it was your ring," Bilbo said.

"My ring?"

Bilbo revealed the small rectangular burn on the back of his freckled hand and Thorin had to bite back a gasp.

"I'm allergic to iron you see, it ma-"

Before Bilbo could even finish the sentence, Thorin had wrenched his ring off his finger and thrown it with all his might into the forest.

Bilbo couldn't quite find his words for a few minutes as he stared slack jawed in the direction the ring had vanished into.

Thorin had just thrown off his ring. Thrown it. His ring he had worn every day Bilbo had known the dwarf. He just threw it into some bushes and would likely never see hide or hair of it again.

Because it had hurt him.

Funny growing up in the late 2000s and seeing constant "don't text and drive" warnings, PSAs telling us to put our phones down behind the wheel, wait until you're home to send that text, a phone-distracted driver is a deadly driver etc etc

Only for modern car manufacturers to be like "we made the car a phone :) now you have to text and drive to change the radio station :)"
