I wrote for the first time in a year bc i went to glasgow and was visited by Ghostly Visions for ggcyd reasons but like its not anything that matters bc its just an 11,000 word porn treatise on the logistics of Dwalin and Thorin ggcyd's extracanonical sex relationship expanded from a horny daydream I had a year ago about them fucking in the back of an old pickup on the side of the road. Something something toxic masculinity and identity and devotion. Anyway the thesis of it is "they dont communicate and are too afraid to break their fragile status quo so they substitute kinky sex for emotional intimacy beyond 'just being bros'" and the conclusion is "they desperately need a third [bilbo] to bitch them out and make them work long term romantically"
