THORIN'S BELOVED MUST BE DECORATED ACCORDING TO HIS STATUS ALWAYS.

I am glad he's having some happiness, finally!

I love seeing him grab every single instant of happiness he can...

WOW. Even dark and deserted I found Moria to be a beautiful place and I am so happy to „see“ it here in its full glory!

I know! It made me so happy to be able to write it and give Balin the kingdom he deserves...

I remember his letter... ONLY THORIN MANAGES TO REMEMBER HIS HEROIC DEEDS AS AN EMBARRASSMENT

I confess that was one of my favorite things in that chapter, the idea that Thorin would be like "I lost my weapons! I almost died and it was just dumb luck there was a stick there! WHY ARE YOU ALL MAKING FUN OF ME CALLING ME THAT?"

I see Thorin sitting in those gardens sometimes, and imagining Bilbo there with him and what Bilbo would think of them and if he could improve them somehow and then being so utterly lonely and WHY DO YOU KEEP BREAKING MY HEART?

I DON'T KNOW, poor Thorin! Because you're right, and the story hides it a bit because Thorin doesn't like to dwell on it and Bilbo doesn't exactly know, but... I'm really glad you can see it!
