    Summary

    “All rise for the King Under the Mountain, Thorin the Second Oakenshield,” Balin announced. The assembled dwarves rose, a respective silence filling the courtroom. As Thorin swept his gaze over them once more, the sound of a pin’s dropping could have been heard in the hush. “Bleh,” Laslûna declared, then shook her rattle.
    A typical day for Thorin does usually proceed like this: Get up at sunrise, have breakfast with Bilbo, attempt to spoon porridge or berries into Laslûna’s mouth and laugh when it gets all over her face, dress for court, go out and actually hold court or attend councils or many other bureaucratic situations. Today, however, there is a slight change: the members of Thorin’s family have highly packed schedules for the day, leaving Little Luna without a minder. This was how Thorin came to be holding court with an extremely adorable, mildly cantankerous, but most especially vocal infant on his knee. Not that he was complaining.

    Summary

    “Thorin and I are expecting a child,” Bilbo announced. Kíli choked on a bite of bread, Fíli spat wine clear across the table, Tauriel dropped the bowl of potatoes in her hands, and Dís just about fell off her chair. “Pardon me,” Kíli said, a little hoarsely, “but don’t you need a, er, a uterus for that?” “No. You see, Hobbit children are grown in the garden,” Bilbo answered. “What, right next to the cabbages?” said Kíli.
    The biggest difference between Hobbits and Dwarves was not, as most people assume, the lack of beards or the size of feet. In truth, the difference was in the method of their birth. While Dwarves did things the old fashioned way, with their womenfolk carrying their children for nine months, Hobbits made use of a single seed, two locks of hair, and fertile soil. This, of course, means that where Dwarves need both one male and one female to bring new life to the world, Hobbits need no such restriction.

    Summary

    “Dwarves,” Bilbo sighed to Tauriel. “It’s a wonder why we love them,” she agreed. “Oi!” Thorin and Kíli said together.
    Five years after Bilbo arrived at Erebor with four fauntlings looking for asylum, he shares a tender moment with those he calls most dear.

    Summary

    "Evening report.” Kíli announced. “What have you got to say?” asked Thorin. “It was boring,” Kíli answered honestly. “I shot a pigeon.” “I told him not to shoot the pigeon,” Fíli reported. “Bard dared me to shoot the pigeon,” Kíli added. Thorin, shaking his head, opened his mouth to ask what else had occurred that day, when the door to his office flew open again and Gimli burst into the office. “Bilbo Baggins is here, seeking asylum.”
     

    Thorin Oakenshield has spent twenty long years alone with his broken heart, he has spent twenty long years learning to live with what he has done and what he caused, and he has spent twenty long years thinking that Bilbo hated him. But miscommunications can cause the worst heartaches of all, he finds, as Bilbo has spent twenty long years thinking that he’s dead.

    Summary

    “You have a tiny Hobbit,” Fíli said, sounding astonished. “Why do you have a tiny Hobbit?” Kíli asked, his voice suspicious. “Did you get married?” asked Fíli, now sounding worried. “This is not good,” Kíli muttered, with twice the worry as Fíli. “Uncle, why are they staring at you?” Frodo asked, his voice confused.
    Bilbo fled Erebor before his friends could be buried, before he had to see Thorin encased in stone. He returns to the Shire and settles into a life of unsociability and some amount of loneliness, but finds comfort in the figures of the children of Hobbiton.
    After twenty years, however, his luck is gone, and Bilbo has to flee the Shire with Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin, and with four very young Hobbits, there is only one place he can turn to.
