Summary
"My dear Mr. Baggins," she replied, "how can you be so tiresome! You must know that I am thinking of one of these unmarried king or princes marrying at least one of our Bagginses, and why not my Bilbo? He’s the prime of the lot."
Smaug is defeated without the recruitment of a burglar, and several delegations, including one from the Shire, are invited to Thorin's public, official coronation. Bilbo, scribe and bachelor, travels to Erebor with fourteen other Hobbits, embarking on an adventure that will change not only his destiny, but those of many in Middle-earth.
Or, the attempted Hobbit / Pride and Prejudice mashup that nobody asked for. Not to worry, knowledge of the plot of Pride and Prejudice is not necessary to understand this story.

Summary
Bilbo had thought that the snow and slush would keep most people out of the museum for the day. He was right, to an extent. He just hadn’t expected that one of the few families who made it in would be quite so distracting and endearing. He’s not supposed to leave the hall his exhibit is in, but with so few people in the museum because of the weather, what could it hurt?
Besides, this Thorin fellow has the prettiest blue eyes that Bilbo has ever seen. As someone who has worked for museums all his life, Bilbo can appreciate art whenever he sees it. And this man, well, he’s definitely something to behold.

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.

Summary
An LGBT+ Retelling of Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice, in which the only son of the Bennet family, Elliot Bennet, begins a tumultuous and fascinating relationship with the enigmatic newcomer, Mr William Darcy. Mr Darcy's friend, Charles Bingley is falling head over heels for Jane, but she is too shy to reciprocate his gestures. Alongside these main romances, forbidden feelings bloom between the outcasted and timid Mary Bennet and the gaelic housekeeper's son, Thomas. When the peculiar and awkward family friend of the Bennet's, Mr Collins, arrives, Kitty begins to warm to his odd mannerisms despite his impending engagement to a local woman. Lydia is swept into the arms of the devilishly handsome and charming George Wickham, despite testaments to his bad character.
