Thanks for letting me write for you amazing people!

Goodness gracious, this chapter covers trust. (If the title didn't clue y'all in...)


"What's that?" he asks, realizing Thorin was talking.

"I asked if you mind doing more paperwork. Last time's was perfect."

Bilbo is surprised to be asked to help again, "More agriculture?"

"No," Thorin replies, "We need to inventory the castle treasury."

Bilbo's mouth falls open, remembering Ori's words about Thorin not wanting help. His retort had been that of course Thorin needed help, it was agriculture! But here he was, entrusted with knowing every asset the castle held, nothing agricultural about it. No, this was money.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course," the answer is unusually warm.

"Well, sure. I'll help."


*Cheers* Yay! More dialogue between our lovely hobbit and his dwarf!

Let me also add. Thorin. Is. Trusting. Him. With. Money.

Think that over, have some of the cinnamon rolls i brought, and let me know what you think.
