that exasperating wizardy look that meant you-haven't-followed-my-deeper-meaning
*g * LOL I know that look.
"Le fael," Bilbo blurted out from beside him; Arwen smiled like the sunrise and Thorin wondered with annoyance when exactly the hobbit had learned to say "Thank you" in Sindarin.
Hehe it's so cute that Bilbo surprises him still. And do I detect a hint of hurt pride here? Up to now he was the only one in the party with Elvish language skills which I believe he secretly is quite proud of. I also prefer to believe that he really enjoys having that skill, though he'd never admit it out loud. Mmh, my mind is wandering... teacher!Thorin and student!Bilbo in a Sindarin lecture yum yum yum. Oh Eru, now I want teacher!AU! Thorin as university lecturer, omg... *crawls into a corner* All the female students would flock to his courses like sheep just to hear his voice and admire his manly hair.... Nyargh. (I knew a lecturer like that in my year abroad and Lord he was a scrumptious man... teaching D.H. Lawrence. Sadly no such glorious hair...)
four dwarvish voices roaring out a drinking-song of Erebor, with three elvish voices following along with some hesitation.
OMG yay! I had completely forgotten about the others and their bickering!
Kíli with a lop-eared gray rabbit in his arms, its pink nose twitching as it stared at the newcomers. Kíli looked chagrined and put the rabbit down hastily; it looked up at him wistfully from the ground.
*wipes tears * You are truly making up for the last chapter spectacularly!
"Oh, but we have!" Kíli announced gleefully. "Haven't we, Haldir?"
This keeps getting better and better!
"This little guy won't stop annoying me," he said, then sheepishly broke off a piece of cake and gave it to the cub, who snorted happily and ran off again.
"Anyway," said Kíli, "The point is that things went fine here. How about you?"
You didn't really have to grovel in the dirt so much, you know. I was a little oversensitive last time. Puppies and Kíli and Fíli! SDafkgjasdläfkgjaldfrnmf I don't know if I can take much more cuteness. :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
"We go to Khazad-dûm."
As if at the sound of a distant horn, all of the dwarves sat up, their faces intent.
It is a splendid word is it not? Khazzzad-dûûmm, dun dun de dun! Very onomatopoetic.
"Bilbo," he said, and was surprised to find his voice husky, "You have traveled far with us and been a boon companion. But Khazad-dûm is a danger beyond any you could imagine. If you wish--"
Bilbo wagged a finger at him as if scolding a child, and Thorin felt all his resolute kingliness leak from him. "You promised you wouldn't do that again," he chided. "You're not getting rid of me now."
You tell him! Go Bilbo!!! (also: husky voice, oh dear dear Thorin.... stop trying to let him go for his own good.)
Thorin felt he should argue more, but his relief was so great that he couldn't manage it.
