    Summary

    When Vecna is defeated, Eddie’s still warm body is rescued, and the crew begin to make their escape, the seals on that plane of existence begin to close. Everything that existed before Will entered is destroyed, but things brought afterward are shunted back into the handful of moments in 1983 surrounding Will's capture. Robin and Steve, facing their death, find themselves waking in their younger bodies. Running on adrenaline, barely grasping the reality of their situation, their first impulse changes everything.

    Three kids disappear that night. Small-town gossip does what it likes. For some, guilt sets in when the kids are rescued, covered in fresh injuries and scars.

    Things change. Traumatized, Steve and Robin do their best to make sure it changes for the better.

    Summary

    “It sounds to me, Thorin son of Thrain, like you need a burglar.” Gandalf suppressed the grin that threatened to overtake his face.

    “I suppose you have one you’d like to recommend.” The King raised a brow.

    “There is one who has done a great many tasks for me over the years.” Gandalf thought of how best to introduce her. “A Hobbit. One with much experience with these kinds of tasks.”

    The King hummed confirmation.

    Now Gandalf just had to go find the blasted girl.

    -------

    Faced with dwarven law, Belladonna finds herself agreeing to a different kind of contract to join to quest for Erebor.

    Summary

    Where hobbits didn't forget their nomadic culture and remembered who they are.

    Hobbits were created from earth and plant. They were the children of Aule and Yavanna, made in celebration of their bonding. They knew the earthen tongue. Plant and earth come to their aid.

    What would the journey to Erebor be like with a female Bilbo who knew a little about surviving?

    or --

    Basically me combining my desire to make Hobbits their own race (which means they get a gift of their own from Eru since all of his children get something cool), having a female Bilbo while making what happens sort of realistic as Gandalf is apparently known to take a lad or Lass of into the blue for an adventure, and making hobbits actually have a culture the reflects their past nomadic life.
