Summary
Bilbo interrupts an argument between Bombur and Dwalin to explain the hobbit approach to ancestral weaponry, and the insanity of more or less the entire Took line.
Or: why frying pans are a hobbit's weapon of choice.

Summary
Written for seniorpotato on tumblr, who asked for a sort-of-Frozen!AU
Every Hobbit in the Shire has a Season. The children of Summer are known for their fires, the Springs for their skills at gardening and healing, and the Autumns for the winds that they can bend to their will.
Bilbo Baggins has a different Season, a cursed Season.
Bilbo Baggins is a child of Winter, blamed by many for the suffering of the Fell Winter of his infancy. Shunned and forced to restrain his powers with an amulet, Bilbo suddenly finds his skills needed to assist a horde of suicidal Dwarves on their Quest to kill a dragon.
Fire cannot kill a dragon, but perhaps Ice can... if it can be controlled.- Language:

Adding ice powers to cannon events made it a lot of fun. The story didn’t take forever rehashing things that were the same too, just focused on what was different. Loved the idea of seasonal powers for hobbits

Summary
Bilbo liked Erebor, he really did. Even if everyone seemed convinced he was going to leave.
In which soil causes international incidents, Thorin is over-dramatic, and dwarves are rubbish at keeping secrets. Oh, and they build a garden. Eventually.

I loved the contrast of the slow fall in love with the gold sickness. The story is post Hobbit and very well told. Bilbo’s POV is also good but there is a section at the end that is the reason it’s rated explicit.

Summary
Belladonna Baggins the Second has traveled the world twice and seen quite enough of it, thank you very much. She is very much ready to sit down, do Queenly things, and add some new additions to the royal family.
So why won't the universe leave her alone?

I’m on chapter 16
Book two of OC hobbit romance with Thorin. Not really sure of an overarching plot with the ring but establishing Erebor as a kingdom and saving the land is interesting enough.
