Things Bagginshield Fic Writers Put In Their Fics That Never Fail To Have Me Giggling, Kicking My Feet

things bagginshield fic writers put in their fics that never fail to have me giggling, kicking my feet in absolute giddy and delight:

"confusticate" and "confound"

Dwarves. (in bilbo's POV)

bed snuggles (especially them tangling their legs together - i am a simple woman)

balin being the president of the bagginshield club

food being an integral part of either the story or their relationship or both

consort!bilbo

BAMF!bilbo

horny!thorin

them being ridiculous

gandalf in a corner with a pipe doing absolutely nothing but reacting to them being ridiculous

either of them logicking their way out of admitting they're in love. or jealous.

"speak plainly"

I've been reading a lot of "thorin is ugly by drawf standars" fics and i always love them so much because i can feel Bilbo's confusion and frustation in every single one of them.

Wich is funny, because i totally get him, too.

Like, if someone looked at me and told me, dead serious, that Thorin Oakenshiel is of all things, ugly, i too would be confused.

This is it.

This is literally the hobbit trilogy.

When you write something that just makes you tee hee

‘You’d like to know what they’re talking about, wouldn’t you?’ ‘Yes . . . No! And anyway . . . Anyway, I can’t hear anything. They’re too far away.’ ‘I’ll tell you,’ laughed the bard. ‘If you want.’ ‘And how are you supposed to know?’ ‘Ha, ha. I, my dear Ciri, am a poet. Poets know everything about things like this. I’ll tell you something else; poets know more about this sort of thing than the people involved do.’ ‘Of course you do!’ ‘I give you my word. The word of a poet.’ ‘Really? Well then . . . Tell me what they’re talking about? Tell me what it all means!’ THE WITCHER: SEASON 3 EPISODE 4 | A TIME OF CONTEMPT: CHAPTER 2

my only thoughts regarding twn

bonus:

Y’all are too hard on Éowyn for marrying Faramir as if having a husband will somehow strip her of her individuality.

Have y’all MET Faramir? This is NOT a guy who saw the attractive Princess of Rohan from afar and was like “I want her to be my ball and chain.”

This is the guy who fell in love with her while she was at her lowest, physically and mentally. He fell in love with her when she was beaten, exhausted, weary, wounded, grieving, and depressed. He fell in love with her when he found out what she did on that battlefield. He fell in love with a kindred spirit, the only person who could truly understand him and his own sufferings. He saw her for exactly who she was - someone strong and brave and bold and unconventional and independent - and that is what he loves about her. When he says “you are beautiful,” he is speaking to her soul too, and not just her face.

As her husband, he will only dote on her and seek her opinions on everything. He already treats her as an equal and cultivates her true self; who says he’ll suddenly stop doing that when they’re married? He would rather die than suppress or hold back the powerful mind and spirit that he fell in love with in the Houses of Healing!

If he was like most other men, would she have married him? Heck no! She has standards, and he meets them.

She married the only guy who would ever let her be herself. This girl got it right. She did not settle, and her being with him does not take anything away from her.
