I am always open for asks and requests for shorts of our favorite dwarrows!
That had been the scariest thing you have ever witnessed. Azog and his goddamn warg were nothing against the giant bear trying to break down the front door. How in the world could Gandalf bring them to this place?
You looked around. There was nothing spectacular. Some cows stared back, busy chewing on their hay. The company seemed to calm down as well. The scratching and gnawing from the door had also stopped.
“Are you all right?” you almost jumped to the ceiling at the deep voice right behind you.
Slowly you turn around. Dwalin was standing behind you. Only a few inches away. If you would lean in a bit and stand on your toes you would have been able to kiss him.
“Yeah, I am fine. Thank you for your concern.” You swallow down the damn thought.
You hope he would turn around and look after Thorin. After all he was the one who got hurt the most. He didn’t. Dwalin remained painfully close, staring down at you.
“Aye, good then.” He nods after a few moments. “Give me your pack. I will arrange your things. You should go and have a bath.” Without waiting for your answer he lifts the heavy pack of your shoulders and walks towards the other side of the room.
Stunned you blink at him. Maybe it was hope speaking, but his actions nearly seemed to be caring. Considering that he had been the loudest one arguing against you coming on this quest. Was this eventually more than only looking out for a female? Maybe even a hint of interest? Courting?!
Your face heats up rapidly. Well, he was more than just a bit attractive. He was strong and considerate, kind and protective.
“Hey, Y/N! What is wrong? You look like you have a fever. Should Oin check you over?” Fili called across the room.
With wide eyes you stare at the young prince, feeling caught red handed. Actually there was nothing to be afraid of, or feeling ashamed for. Still…
“Oh, shut up…” you mutter, fleeing the scene towards the back door. A cool bath would be the best for now.
Bofur, who had been the first one scouting their surroundings had mentioned something of a river in the back of the garden. A cold bath would be the best thing right now.

The evening went by almost uneventful. Beorn was an amazing host. It had startled you at first that the animals around were much larger and so intelligent. They had shown you around and even prepared dinner.
It had been quite some time for you and the rest of the company to rest peacefully. Here there were no wargs, orcs, goblins or trolls sitting in your neck. Thorin had been hurt the worst, but you as well as the others felt the complete extend of your smaller wounds, bruises and the strain your muscles and bones had endured.
You decided to sleep early. Everything in your body ached, but the soft hay made up for it. It took some time to get comfortable and it had nothing to do with the familiar bedroll nearest to you, definitely not!
In the middle of the night you woke. Looking around you could spot the better part of the company. Drowsy you stand up, making your way over your companions, stepping on one or two of them and earning a few displeased grunts.
Blinking in the dim light you enter the kitchen, searching for something to drink. You bump into something warm and very muscular. Looking up you stare directly into Dwalins face.
Taking one step back you get a better look at him. He was shirtless. And hell was he muscular! You blush slightly, hoping he wouldn’t notice in the dark room.
“Why are you up, Y/N?” he asks in a low rumble.
“Just thirsty.” You mumble back still staring at his chest.
He turns around, reaching behind him and you stare at his bare back. Like streaks of silver small and bigger scars part his dark skin. You are dazed by the image and reach out, nearly touching him.
“If I could kiss away all your scars.” You say like in a trance.
A large hand catches yours and a mug falls clattering to the ground. You snap out of it, head yanking up to meet his eyes.
‘He didn’t hear that, did he?’ you think, blushing more furiously.
“You are so cute when you are half asleep like that, Y/N.” His hoarse voice washes over you, sending a shiver down your spine.
“I… well, I am-“ you swallow, trying to subdue the nervous flutter in your chest.
“I think I might falling in love with you!” you suddenly blurt out.
Silence. Even the snoring of the other dwarrows died down. You said it. Holding your breath you try to to look everywhere but at Dwalin. His grip loosens.
So it had been just an illusion then. You pull your hand out of his and hastily make your way back to your bedroll. No longer thirty at all, only highly embarrassed and dejected. Turning your back to Dwalins bedroll and forcefully shutting your eyes, ignoring the heavy footstepps and the thud of a body setting near you. You could nearly feel his gaze stinging in your neck.
~~~
The next morning came faster than you wanted it to. You hadn’t been able to sleep at all. Dark circles under your eyes and a deadly expression on your face you slump into your seat. Furthest away from Dwalin and glowering at the filled plate in front of you.
The lively conversations around you die down. Kili made an attempt to talk to you, but a loving hit from his brother made him close his mouth again.
A hollow thud from across the table made you look up. It seemed that Dori had nudged Dwalin, pretty hard, into the side. The warrior rubbed the sore spot, glancing at you.
“Y/N… I- about yesterday,” his voice trails of.
He stands up and walks around the table, stopping by your side. Inhaling he puffs out his chest and straightens his back, locking his eyes with yours.
“I am sorry.” Your heart drops, was he about to tell you of in front of everyone?! With wide eyes you clench your fists even tighter.
“Ah, no. This was definitely the wrong words to choose.” He clears his throat, scratching his neck. “Y/N, would you grant me the honour to court you?”
You gasp at his words, nodding frantically, not able to speak or hear the cheering and congratulations. Dwalin sweeps you off the chair and gently hugs you, whispering ‘Sanûrzud‘ into your ear.
Remember, it’s the holiday season now. That means that retail workers are going to be under a lot of pressure in the upcoming months. Customers will yell at them; bosses will make them work terrible hours; they might miss quality time with their own families when they have to work holidays. They have to deal with a lot this season, and no-one makes much of an effort to support them. Please be extra respectful and understanding to the retail workers you meet when you go shopping this November and December.
Using Holidays to Celebrate Cultures around the World
Using Holidays to Celebrate Cultures around the World #celebrations #festivals #globalcitizen
Although we want to talk about world cultures for more than just holiday events, sometimes using holidays helps introduce the younger grades to cultures which with they are not familiar. Using the holiday as a launching off point, they see how the featured culture celebrates. Here is a list of holidays throughout the year:
January:
New Year’s Eve/Day: The United States/Canada/Europe/Australia…
Summary: You and your son, Frerin II, accidentally turn Thorin, Kili, Fili, Dwalin, Balin and Gandalf into cats and this is the result (Spin off of The Elf and The Dwarf)

Part 8
“Meow.”
You ignore it, continuing to trek down the hall.
“Meow,” another voice calls out and you ignore him. You had a mission and that was to not give into the pleads of the four cats currently following you as you make your way to the throne room.
It was barely sunrise and Thorin and Dwalin were already up and were practically begging you to let them come with you. You had a feeling that whatever they were talking about yesterday had something to do with the reason as to why they were begging to leave.
As you were leaving your rooms, Fili and Kili were just walking by and by walking you meant sneaking. As soon as you opened the door, they stopped walking, looking absolutely terrified. You knew immediately that they had somehow snuck out of their home which is why you were currently in the situation you were in now.
Kili and Dwalin were absolutely fine with walking on their own, Thorin and Fili, however, absolutely hated it. They were so lazy. You figured they would love to strut about the city but it seems that age had caught up with Thorin. Fili had no excuse though.
“Meow.”
“Oh for Valar’s sake. I'm not picking either of you up. You chose to come so you will walk,” you snap irritably.
You loved them as cats, you really did, but you just missed your husband so much. You missed lying on his strong arms and his forehead kisses and just everything about him.
That causes the cats to stop meowing. You get to the throne room and nod to the guards before taking a seat. You were now in a bad mood. The cats were nowhere to be seen and that made you more irritable.
You decide to end the day at sunset. You could no longer stand sitting on the throne. You dismiss the guards and walk back to your home, just wanting to curl up and cry.
“Lass?” You hear and you turn around to find Bofur with Thorin and Dwalin on either side of him. Bofur is holding a package.
“So as I was walking around with Oin we got attacked by these two buggers,” Bofur says, nudging Dwalin with his foot. Dwalin just hisses.
“Sorry about that. I had no control over them today,” you say, not really happy to see anybody right now.
“It's fine. It's just weird seeing the two fiercest warriors in Erebor as cats,” Bofur says and Thorin rolls his eyes, “but I'm pretty sure this is meant for you.”
Bofur hands you the package and you give him a tight smile.
“Thanks Bofur. I'm sorry but I'm not really in a good mood right now. I'll see you later?” You ask and he smiles at you before nodding. You walk back to your home.
When you get back to your home, you put the package on the table before going into your room and lying under the covers. Thorin jumps on the bed and you ignore him, closing your eyes.
He licks all over your face before you push him away.
“Leave me alone Thorin,” you sniff before turning to your other side. You missed your husband. A lot. You feel him jumping over you and landing on the bedside table. You can also feel him licking away the tears that had starting rolling down your face.
“I want you back,” you sob and he fits his body in the little space between the edge of the bed and you, continuously licking your tears away. You wrap your arms around his little body and he rubs his face against yours, trying to be as cuddly as possible. You really hoped Radagast would hurry up.
