no matter how tough or dangerous you are, there will always be the instinct to freeze up when your older brother catches you doing things you probably shouldn’t. I bet these things happened throughout their entire childhoods

Khuzdul, the secret language of the Dwarves, is forbidden to be taught to outsiders, and its written form is fiercely guarded. Thorin, however, finds a loophole. He cannot teach Bilbo the spoken grammar of the language, but he teaches him the specific runic spellings of certain sacred concepts. One evening, Thorin takes a small silver dagger and carves three runes onto the inside of Bilbo’s personal writing desk. He tells Bilbo it is a protective ward. It is only months later, when Bilbo compares the shapes to an ancient historical text, that he realizes the runes don't spell a ward; they spelling out Thorin's secret, intimate inner-name for Bilbo, a title meant only for a Dwarf’s true lifemate
While Bilbo is highly literate in Common and Elvish script, Dwarven runes confuse him. Thorin takes it upon himself to teach him. He sits behind Bilbo at his grand library desk, guiding Bilbo's hand with his own to ink the sharp, geometric lines of the runes. Thorin starts by teaching him simple words like "gold," "iron," and "home." However, Bilbo notices that Thorin often makes him write a specific sequence of runes over and over. When Bilbo later asks Ori for the translation, Ori giggles and reveals it spells out: "The beloved treasurer of the King"
forever thinking about that girl at my uni orientation who, after being told to pour out her water bottle before entering an event, looked at me and said "they tell us to stay hydrated and then make us pour out our water, this is like totally kafkaesque" and then poured out what was very obviously an entire water bottle full of whiskey. hope she's doing well.

Dwarves not having as large a range in culinary arts as hobbits is OUT, dwarves having unique new flavors to hobbit tongues that they go absolutely buck wild over is IN. I'm particularly fond of the idea that dwarves have an inclination towards spicy food, something most hobbits aren't as familiar with.
I like combining that with the "hobbits immune to poisons" fanon, and, while Bilbo CAN feel the spice, it doesn't cause the type of, more intense, reactions it can for others.
Thorin, learning of how hobbits flirt with food, begins making uniquely dwarven meals and presenting them in a hobbity style displays of affection. Bilbo hearts-in-his-eyes Baggins takes a single bite and then asks when he'd like their wedding to be.
Thorin has the privilege of introducing Bilbo to new ingredients, and brings him to the mountain's gardens where he can see where they come from. Bilbo has been picking fruits to sample them the whole way, which of course Thorin is happy to allow. Thorin, who has been monologuing for some time now about the history of dwarven cultivation, stops walking.
"I ask that if you see a fruit which is red and curved, however, you refrain from touching it. For that is the infamous Ereborian Scythe Pepper. A single drop of its essence is enough to bring an entire army of dwarrow to their knee--"
Bilbo, who has a small collection of those very peppers in one hand and a handkerchief in his other, stops chewing and swallows. Sniffs.
"Oh. Well. That explains why my nose has been running so."
Bilbo wipes his nose and Thorin looks at him in confusion, then worry, then confusion again, and ending with a mixture of incredulity and amusement. After a bit of explaining on Bilbo's part about hobbit physiology, they both have a good laugh. Thorin says something incredibly sappy about hobbits always surprising him, and Bilbo, happiest he's ever been, gives him a peck on the lips.
A few minutes later Bilbo is bringing thorin jugs of goat milk and apologizing endlessly as Thorin, red and sweating up a storm, pushes through the pain of the Ereborian Scythe Pepper.
They have a spring wedding.
modern social media should stop offering "sync with your phone contacts to follow them" options and start offering "block all your phone contacts so they never see your account" options
In Dwarven culture, touching another’s hair or beard is deeply intimate. Bilbo learns this the hard way when he playfully reaches out to untangle a twig from Thorin’s hair during the journey. The entire company goes dead silent. Thorin freezes, his eyes wide, before gently but firmly catching Bilbo’s wrist. It takes an awkward lecture from Kíli later that night for Bilbo to understand that by doing so, he accidentally initiated a Dwarven courtship ritual
Before I followed you I was very against trans people it made me very angry, but the more you posted about it in support I decided to do a little research… well I went on pornhub. Anyway I found my cousin on there that was weird. I went with him to a gay club and I hooked up with a trans girl, I think she turned me trans. I’m buying some dresses and make up!
oh… yay! … oh… yay? … YAY!
What do you mean Thorin died on Ravenhill?? Then how did he marry Bilbo a year after the reclamation, huh? Explain that!
