The ending of the hobbit doesn't exist, it can't hurt you.……
The song: 500 Miles — Peter, Paul & Mary
I had an idea… what if Thorin is in crow costume… since they both like shiny things…
Its a very rough sketch but… who loves dark Thorin?
I don’t understand how a man looking like this also can be a big cutie
bilbo baggins it's my baby i gave birth to him
Since late 2021, I had been working on illustrating a Chinese version of The Hobbit. The book was published in August 2024.
After all these years, a dream came true. ❤️
Bagginshield Reshirement AU but instead of it being forever lovely and sweet, it’s Thorin suffering in the Shire’s summer heat because he was born and raised on a cold mountain.
The poor man is even more miserable than usual because his Dwarfish Bulk TM makes it so he retains heat remarkably well, his lovely long hair making things worse. As much as he tries to enjoy the peace, there’s only so much he can stand while being sweaty and stinky and tired and having to carry a parasol and a bloody frilly handkerchief around to dab at his forehead.
Eventually Thorin takes to just laying in his underwear in Bilbo’s garden under an umbrella as Bilbo goes around watering his flowers, occasionally watering Thorin while he’s at it.
The fact that The Hobbit is such a lighthearted family-friendly book, especially when compared to LOTR, actually breaks my heart when you consider that it is Bilbo’s writing. That journey was anything but a fun trip for him. He went through real dangers and horrifying moments. He saw violence for the first time. At the end of it, he lost his love. And he went home traumatized, heartbroken, and forever changed.
Yet when he wrote the story down, he emphasized the more successful and fun parts, and glossed over the depth of his pain and grief when the losses happened (even leaving Fíli and Kíli’s deaths to a throwaway line.)
Because what else could he have done? Nobody else could possibly understand his pain. Bilbo wasn’t like Frodo. He didn’t have a Sam who he shared the experience with and could talk to about it every day afterward, to help him work through writing down the details of the darker parts of the story. And his other friends lived far away and could only visit occasionally.
And the hobbit children were all full of wonder about Elves and dwarves and trolls, so he put the focus on that.
I feel like that was his way of dealing with his trauma.
