They’re Taking the Hobbits to Isengard - The Dread Crew of Oddwood

“Catching up” Headcanon - Fili, Kili and Gimli grew up together. They were a bit older, and Princes and he just hero-worshipped the both of them. When they went on the quest to Erebor, they told a rather grumpy and jealous Gimli that when they came back they’d tell him all about their adventures.

[madamefaust-deactivated20210624]

That’s fine. I wasn’t really using my heart for anything in particular.

[leapin-lizards]

Oh, lord.

[lucenorthstar]

because in the Empire’s cover Tauriel has the most fabulous hair I’ve ever seen in my life, and I bet Kili felt the same strong fascination for it the first time he saw her without her hair tied up.

so this.

modern!AU of course.

[queerboochananbarnes-deactivate]

Absolutely perfect! Guuuuuuuuuuh yes.

Winter came in harsh and quickly that year, so swiftly that the dwarves easily were caught by surprise and could only harvest half of the scarce crops needed for the population of Ered Luin.  Thus, rationing was required that season for each dwarf family, and hunting all day in the deep snow was a necessity.  However, in the harsh blizzards, it was difficult to find game, and more often than not, Thorin and the others came back empty handed.

"Uncle, aren’t you going to eat?"

Thorin stopped nibbling on his small slice of bread as he looked at Fíli who was eagerly eating the soup Dís made as an effort to spread out the two rabbits he snared earlier.  Kíli was sitting on Thorin’s lap, hungrily gobbling Thorin’s stewed potatoes.

"I am eating."

"You’ve been nibbling on that bread this whole time.  And Kee’s been eating the rest of your food."

There were times Thorin wished Fíli wasn’t an observant child.  Thorin continued nibbling his allotted slice, ignoring the small pangs on hunger in his stomach.

"Kíli is a growing boy; he needs the food more.  This is all I require."

Fíli just looked at him quietly, contemplative.  Thorin didn’t need to be a seer to know that his sister’s son didn’t believe him, just like the other days during this past month when he voiced anything similar to the current subject.  And once, only once, in the past, Fíli tried sneaking Thorin some of his own food off his plate during meals.  All the stern glares and reprimands from Thorin didn’t deter the blond child, so Thorin played the rather dirty tactic of telling Fíli that he’d make his mother very sad if Dís knew Fíli and Kíli weren’t getting enough food.

Fíli quietly returned to his soup.  And Thorin internally sighed in relief, hugging Kíli a little tighter as he internally counted the days until winter would be over.

[kaciart]

Weh, I just love this concept. That, despite being so young Fili is hyper conscious of everythign that goes on around him.

And ugh, Thorin, you’re so good to these kids - it’s no wonder they followed you on your quest and would do anything for your approval.

This is really precious!!

And last for tonight~

[roguefankc]

Before the siege by the wyrm, Smaug, Thorin remembered all the grand feasts he and his family had in Erebor when he was young.

Meats, cheeses, potatoes, ale aplenty, enough to feed a dozen armies and cooked by the finest chefs Thror could find in all of Middle Earth, each dish served on platters decorated with gold, precious metals, and jewels.

Being a homeless vagabond, working for scraps and a few measly coins, after the loss of the kingdom had Thorin missing those times dearly in the past.

And yet, here in this little Hobbit hole, in this modest and cozy kitchen of comfort, Thorin came to two small realizations as he sampled the simple stew Bilbo cooked just for the two of them for dinner.

1.) Food tastes best when you share it with someone you love.

And 2.) there were few greater pleasures in life than knowing a Hobbit loves you enough to cook a meal for you.

[kaciart]

Awwwww, this is just so sweet and heartwarming.

Beautiful description and just

 EWELOCK SAID: OH LAWD. I LOVE YOUR ART OMG. /COOS/ HOW ABOUT SOME MORE BABY BILBO OFF CHASING ELVES AND TUMBLING INTO A RIVER? I REMEMBER YOU DID SOMETHING WITH HIM AND BELLADONNA A LONG TIME AGO. ////;

(for those who can’t read my writing)

Hobbit girl: “Bilbo! We’re not allowed to go pass beyond the stream!”  Bilbo: “But there are elves there! I know it! Just like in Gandalf’s stories.”

Bilbo’s Mom: “There, there. You can go adventurin’ when you’re a little older, luv.”

[papermachette-deactivated202604]

Little Ori is Balin’s pupil, so he often comes by to visit for his lessons. Dwalin is sometimes there when’s he’s off duty so he just hangs around. He’s probably thinking “Gawd what a weird dwarfling.” One day after Ori’s lesson, Dwalin is watching after Ori until Dori comes to pick him up. Ori leaves behind his drawings and Dwalin looks through them out of curiosity. He’s chuckling to himself “haha these are pretty good” but then he abruptly stops at a drawing of a certain star-shaped person…

Based on this headcanon I made for the lingerie model au where when Bilba was still in college she had to work at the Prancing Pony (think London’s equivalent to “Hooters”) to pay off her tuition.

So I made a quick and dirty Thranduil the Elven King crown from The Hobbit.  I say quick and dirty because it was made pretty much Friday night and part of Saturday, the hot glue was still cooling in the car.  It turned out pretty well I think though!  Definitely some changes I would make for a 2.0 version that would improve on some problems it has, but good enough for just having something to mess around with.  I’ll probably just randomly wear it around the house and make snotty faces at things.  Maybe put together some sort of slinky silver club outfit for a lazy convention day outfit.  We’ll see I suppose.

But yeah!  Pretty much made out of sculpey and a few other bits and pieces on a base of a headband.  Its hard to see in the photos…but the crown itself is four separate pieces glued onto the headband.  This way it has flexibility and can fit on various head sizes.  You have to practice a bit to get it sitting right on your head so that its balanced and anchored well, but once you do its relatively sturdy and didn’t give me problems.

Any questions on construction etc. feel free to shoot me an ask or something!
