    Summary

    Everytime he caught Thorin’s gaze, he felt his heart burst with love. The smile on Thorin’s face was something he would never forget. A smile that was so bright, Bilbo was sure it could melt pure ice- the smile of Durin himself, though it was a rare sight to see on Thorin Oakenshield.

    But after the excitement, there was the void.

    Bilbo closed his eyes, again, focusing on digging his fingers into the muscle of his leg, as well as he could.

    #

    The Valar send Bilbo back in time. He has changed the course of history, and those who had lived have died, and those who were supposed to die live. How will Bilbo navigate through this new, uncertain future to ensure his mission succeeds- For Thorin to live and for Frodo to smile?

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins had lived a comfortable life in the Shire, tending to his garden, minding his own business. And then the Dwarves thought they could come and disturb his life with stories of faraway kingdoms, enchanted kings and magical gardens.

    Bilbo was not amused.

    A different take on the quest where Erebor never fell, Thorin has been poisoned and the Dwarves are in dire need of a gardener.

    Summary

    There are several things that the dwarves don't know about the hobbit that is traveling with them. Things that Bilbo is glad to let them find out for themselves along the way.

    The first is that he's prepared for anything. His mother used to quiz him about what he'd do in any situation - from relatives to trolls - and Bilbo never disappointed her with his answers. Riding a pony all day gives him plenty of time to plan for everything.

    The second is that he can throw a stone or any other small object hard enough to embed it several inches into a tree trunk. His accuracy is uncanny even by Shire standards. He's quite proud of it.

    The third is that he doesn't actually say so many proverbs when at home but it seems to annoy the dwarves so he spends time thinking up all the ones he's heard before.

    And last, hobbits scold like it is no one's business. The Dwarves he's traveling with really have no idea what will happen if they truly piss him off.
