    Summary

    The first thing Thorin sees when he wakes up is his own hand resting on the bedsheets. Atop it rests another, smaller hand. It feels warm and looks soft, the skin unworried by forge burns and blemishes. It is not a dwarf’s hand; he knows as much. Yet he cannot quite gather for himself if that is of any importance.

     

    Or, Thorin loses his memory and quite forgets that the hobbit by his bedside whom he wishes to court and marry is already his husband. Everyone else find this hilarious.

    Summary

    'Alone this Yuletide? Irritated with prying and nosey family members?

    I am an out of work blacksmith currently trying to make my way by any means necessary that does not involve my resorting to thievery (prisons are most uncomfortable, I've unfortunate first hand experience). However, if you would like me to be your strictly platonic companion for any social function, but have me pretend that we are in a serious courtship, so as to torment your family and ward off unwanted suitors then I am more than obliging...'

    After becoming increasingly irritated by overtures of romance from various Shire residents following the death of his mother four years ago, Bilbo is more than ready to resort to desperate measures. That is, up to and including pretending to be in a serious relationship with a certain surly blacksmith currently inhabiting the Bindbale Woods.

    It's a good idea after all; all they have to do is pretend to be in love over the Yuletide period and Bilbo's family and suitors will surely leave him alone after that. It's perfect! And nothing can possibly go wrong, right? Certainly nothing as preposterous as falling for one another for real...

    Summary

    The Company shows their affection for Bilbo in accordance with dwarvish tradition. Bilbo... has no idea why everyone keeps giving him gifts.

    (Dwarves give gifts of craft to start friendships or romance. Everybody lives AU, canon-compliant through the first movie.)

    Summary

    Roy scoffs, but he looks back up at the statue. He tilts his head, studying him for a minute. He is insanely beautiful, but Roy will still keep his mouth shut. “Has he got a name? Shit, a title I mean?”

    “You could name him, if you wanted. He looks like a Percy to me.” Rachel hums, but she is already three statues down, checking them in. Roy barely glances at them, but he knows none of them can properly compare to the one before him. “Check his label. His title was the one thing found with him in the church bunker.”

    Roy does, leaning down. There’s a little paragraph detailing the history rundown that Rachel just gave, including how they believe Michelangelo himself may have carved him.

    His title is above that, a single word in what Roy assumes to be Latin.

    Deliciae.

     

    Or, the one where Roy picks up a job for his sister and finds himself drawn to one of the beautiful new statues in the exhibit, but gets a little more than he bargained for.

    Summary

    “My lord” and “my love” are really very similar sounding phrases, and anyone could make the mistake of mixing them up. However, of course, Arthur would never ever let Merlin live it down.

    Whether Merlin’s lord or his love, at the end of the day, first and foremost; Arthur Pendragon is a giant Prat.
