Bilbo and Thorin bonding over Valentines Day being a bit over a week away and their friends and family suddenly turning into loopy-in-love idiots over it.
Bilbo deciding, in a moment of playfulness, to send Thorin a selection of cheap chocolate bars via a popular online shopping site. (With the message ‘Happy Valentines ;) - B.Baggins’)
Thorin responding with questioning text about it not being Valentines Day yet, but then Bilbo receives a bulk package of Candy Hearts with a similar Valentines greeting.
For a full week leading up to Valentines Day, they cheekily send each other ridiculously over the top cheap Valentines gifts via mail, until Valentines Day morning, Bilbo gets up expecting a final package (and wow, he’s pretty saddened by that actually).
Instead it’s Thorin, in person, at the door. He’s holding a bouquet of roses, a box of breakfast bagels, and hoping Bilbo will join him at the movies later that afternoon, then maybe dinner?
They laugh later, whilst feeding each other not-so-cheap chocolates, that now they’re the loopy-in-love idiots.
[I HAS DELIVERED ON MY PROMISE. ONE VALENTINES BAGGINSHIELD AU FOR YOU]
[YOU DID IT BLESS]
I see them both not being very bothered by all the silly pressure of Valentines Day (even if I totally see Thorin being the biggest romantic dork in the end, but when it comes to Valentine’s Day both he and Bilbo sees it as blown out of proportion)
But omg Bilbo deciding to do something silly like that just to joke about the stupid over the top things people do for Valentines.
OK THOUGH IMAGINE. THORIN GETTING ONE OF THOSE HUGE ASS TEDDY BEARS FOR BILBO. AND BILBO JUST HUFFS. BC ‘WHERE TF AM I GOING TO PUT THIS??? THIS WAS TERRIBLY IMPRACTICAL. YOU’VE HONESTLY ALMOST GONE TOO FAR THORIN. I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE.’
When Thorin turns up to ask him on a serious date Bilbo only agrees if Thorin takes the bear back. Except Thorin doesn’t know what to do with it cause there’s not really a return policy on those. So next time Bilbo is over the bear is just awkwardly sitting there in the corner of the living room.
Ahhh revenge is sweet.
(And yes eventually they cuddle up for the evening--in a room that isn’t occupied by a giant teddy bear--and agree maybe being sappy and stupid on Valentines Day is kinda fun.)
