Summary
After no contact for almost a decade, Thorin decides (is forced by Balin) to write to the Company’s hobbit and announce his trip to the Blue Mountains, which leads him through the Shire.
Because of reasons, he doesn’t send the letter until the day of his departure from the Lonely Mountain and thus does not know if the Burglar wants to even see him again.
But he has asked for a sign whether he is welcome in Bilbo’s home (and heart): for the hobbit to tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree atop his smial.
And now he dreads what he will find when he finally crests that last hill between Hobbiton and Bag End… -

Summary
Many years ago, a feeble lad and a future king meet in the streets of Ered Luin.
Or: When Thorin bought Nori for the night, he never thought that he would still have to explain his motives (and innocence) 45 years later, but, on second thought, he could have gone about that whole thing in a better way. But really, he actually had just wanted to sleep. No one made sound decisions after two days without rest!
(Turns out, this was one of the best choices he had ever made, though.)Series

Soon, he has to question who to trust and no choice but to delve deep into the dark and gory underworld of Ered Luin.
Or: Let’s play a game called “How long can I keep Dwalin from finding out Nori’s name?” :D

Summary
Dwalin is forced to learn that some deeds of the past will come back to haunt you, when he is caught by the very gang of smugglers he had been investigating. As things are looking rather dire for him, his life seems to lie in the hands of one wicked dwarf, whom he had last seen about forty years ago. But back then, their roles had been reversed, and the other dwarf had been the one at Dwalin’s mercy.

Summary
"Odysseus was clever, but his vanity and ego would have killed him long before his return home if not for his wife.”
“Penelope?” Tim asked.
“Exactly, child, Penelope," his nanny smiled. "The men of Ancient Greece would have you believe that she was idle, waiting for her husband to come home and solve her problems, but this is far from the truth. For routine and ritual are not powerless things. In pouring her love for her son and husband into her weaving, she called out to the goddesses Hestia and Hera. Despite never lifting a finger in violence herself, Penelope saved her family.”
--
Tim finds that there are more ways to protect the Bats than just Robin. A little magic never hurt anyone, after all. -

Summary
Now Esca must simply be imagining things. Before he can talk himself out of it, he takes a step forward, then another, until the ring of lantern light begins to fall on the creature.
When Esca sees human hands and feet, he nearly jumps out of his skin, but instead he stumbles forward until the light reveals a partial human form. There are arms, and legs, and a bare torso, but the broad shoulders are covered with short, dense hair and barely narrow into an immensely thick neck, atop which sits the head of a bull, complete with massive, curved horns.
