A powerful smell of metals and dirt invaded the hobbits nose, he knew this smell. He always liked it. "a dwarf. Going to have to say I didn't expect that. I thought he was going to bring humans like last time" bilbo commented.
Speak for yourself. I knew it was going to be a dwarf hours ago
"Of course you did"bilbo sighed. Just a few minutes later a large burly looking dwarf was at his door step.
"Bilbo Baggins at you service" he introduced shaking the dwarfs hand "Dwalin at yours" he introduced as the hobbit dragged him into his house "foods in the kitchen if you want it" bilbo directed using his finger. Another hardy knock came from the door.
Within minutes the house was full of dwarfs scoffing down food like there was no tomorrow. Gandalf walked to bilbo and stared at him flabbergasted "a fail to see how all this carnage doesn't cause you distress master Baggins" Bilbo just smiled watching as the dwarves escalated into a food fight "I've delt with dwarves before so I don't have any worries" he answered. Soon a smaller dwarf named Ori came up to bilbo "excuse me but where can I put my plate?" She asked. Another dwarf Called out to Ori"throw it here" he beckoned. Ori obeyed and threw the plate the the raven haired dwarf known as Kili " watch this" bilbo giggled walking over to his kitchen table. There were dwarfs that were scraping the knives against each "you'll blunt them" the hobbit yelled in fake distress. Kili stepped forward "you here that we'll blunt them" he bellowed. That somehow set of a chain reaction, all of the dwarfs started singing.
Blunt the knives bend the forks
Smash the bottles and burn the corks
Chip the glasses and crack the plates
That's what bilbo Baggins hates!
After the merry song had ended and solid knock came to the door. Suddenly cheery dwarfs went solemn and quite "he's here" Gandalf stated. Bilbo pulled the door open to see a somewhat majestic dwarf looking down at him with a serious tone.
Shit
"Bilbo this is Thorin Oakenshield. The leader of the company" Gandalf declared. Thorin slowly entered, studying bilbos every move. Bilbo frowned and refused to look at the dwarf "he looks more like a grocer then a burglar" he commented. A few chuckles came from the dwarfs behind him but bilbo didn't care. The hobbit snarled"Says the king how doesn't have a mountain" some of the dwarves gasped while bilbo twisted on his heels to face Gandalf "a burglar. Now that's one I've been before. For a bunch dwarves no less. Blimey it's been ages. Remember last time I helped dwarves was at Moria if I can remember correctly" all the dwarves stared at him in shock as he headed towards the kitchen. A few minutes later he came back with soup "sorry it's all I have left master Oakenshield" he said handing him the bowl.
The company was gathered around the table "bilbo could we have some more light please" Gandalf asked. Bilbo obliged before going back to sitting down and doing some reading, he didn't really care what they were talking about. He just needed to get out of bag end, stretch his wings if you would. Suddenly he heard a chair shift against the wooden floor "I'm not afraid of him. We should go into that mountain and defeat that beast" shouts Ori. Grunts of agreement followed. Bilbo walked over and stared at the map before Thorin. A singular feature caught his eye. The mountain. "Your headed to Erebor. Erebor. That's where the dragon is. Oh oh OH. This makes things interesting" he hollered. Gandalf looked at the hobbit and then to the company "now if I'm correct you want me to go with you as your burglar to steal something. My guess in the alcstalasa stone or what every you call it" "arkenstone" Balin interjected "that too" Bilbo finished.
Bilbo sat in his study looking over the contract he had been given "this is to complicated for a quest this simple" he commented.
It's not simple to them so go along with it
Bilbo sighed as he thought about the dwarves " what do you think of them?"
Fili and Kili are fun to be around I guess same with Bofur. Ori isn't to bad. Balin and Dwalin are just like there father if he was separated into brains and brawn. Thorin is a majestic hardass and the rest I have no opinion on. You?
"Same with Fili and Kili. There enjoyable. Bofur I find more charming I guess. Like his brothers. Your right about balin and Dwalin. Ori is just adorable but her brothers are over protective. Thorin well I can tell we're not going to get along but I reckoned I can change that" bilbo finished
Are you sure you don't want me to help
"Nuh this ones mine"
Are you willing to bet
"What s that supposed to mean I can't do it?"
Maybe
At that moment there was a small knock on his door. Bilbo pulled air threw his nose smelling the sent of old paper and ink "you can come in Ori" he yelled. The small ginger dwarf entered the study stumbled into the study carrying books "sorry to disturb you master bilbo but can I borrow some ink? I promise I'll pay you back" he squeaked. Bilbo just chuckled and said " it's over on my desk but you have a full bag of ink last time I checked so why did you come in here?" Ori shifted uncomfortably. Bilbo folded to contract back up and sat down on the carpet cover floor "sit here with me" he demanded. Ori obliged feeling the slightest bit scared " don't worry I won't hurt you. I haven't done so in many years. I want to play a game ok? I'll answer any questions you have if you answer mine to best of your ability" he offered seeing that the young dwarf was curious. Ori nodded vigorously "ok you go first" bilbo told Ori.
"Who were you talking to?" He shifted his gaze to the ground "my brother and no he's not here. My turn" bilbo answered "when were you planning on telling them your gender?" Or is face light up like red fireworks as she went to cover her chest "how did you.." she whimpered. Bilbo chuckled and gave her a reassuring smile "evidence supporting guess. Don't worry I won't tell" ori grunted before asking another question "so how can you talk with your brother if he's not here?" Bilbo stretched and cracked his back.
You can tell her. I should be nice to get a bit of weight off your chest
"We have this mind thing going on but it only works one way" ori tilted her head like a confused puppy " how so?" Bilbo yawned "well he can talk to me using his mind but I have speak out loud for it to work. He can also listen in on conversation around me and if he concentrates hard enough he can see through my eye" ori seemed fascinated by the whole thing "would you like to speak with him?" He offered. Ori turned slightly red again "only if you don't mind" she almost shouted "okay but please don't slap me" Ori looked a bit confused before bilbo pressed a quick kiss on her lips. Ori was taken aback her head hurt for a millisecond.
Hello Ori my name is sherlock
Thorin was lying in one of the larger rooms in the hobbit hole "what's wrong with you?" Bilbo questioned the king. Thorin growled at the hobbit as he sat next to him. Bilbo lay the contract beside Thorins head "I signed it" he stated pushing himself off the ground "I guess I shall see you in the morning master oakenshield"
