7) Fili and Kili keep calling me various 'cute' animals. I am not cute!

Bilbo was sat down, eating soup,and when the brothers Li came skipping up to him. Rolling his eyes, he awaited the horrible singing that almost caused him to beg Thorin to ban singing on the trip. "Hello Mr Boggins! We've got a brand new nickname for you as 'Burglar' is boring." Deciding to humour them, the hobbit pretended to look fascinated.

"Really? What ever could it be?" He chuckled as he slurped some more of his scrumptious soup.

"Hedgehog!" Bilbo spat his soup out all over the place and begin coughing as some was swallowed down his airways.

"Why" He asked once he was better, "Might I ask, am I a hedgehog?"

"You're cute and hedgehogs are cute too!" Fili grinned, causing Bilbo to dump the remains of his soup on the blonde' s head much to Kili' s amusement.


"What about a kitten then?" Kili asked later on.

"Pardon?!" The hobbit jumped a little as the brothers appeared from seemingly nowhere.

"A kitten. They are soft and have claws so they can defend themselves but they're mostly cute and cuddly. Like you!"

"I AM NOT CUTE OR CUDDLY!" The hobbit yelled, stomping his foot and storming off in another direction.

"Give it up Lads." A tired Balin sighed. The brothers looked at each other.

"NEVER!" They called back as they ran off after Bilbo.


"A squrriel?" A pot whizzed past Fili' s head, causing him to yelp and curse. He darted away from the cooking area to his expectant brother. "Not a squrriel then?"

"Nope. More of a warg cub. Cute but deadly..."
