A "The Hobbit" fic where the dwarfes are confused about wheater Bilbo is a male of female hobbit and all the shenanigans that come with that.
Like, think about it.
We know that male and female dwarves look very similar, too the point where female dwarves disguise themselves while on the road, to avoid attracting attention of big folk. None of the thirteen dwafves have, as far as we know, ever seen a hobbit, and it's probable that they have no idea if there is any differences between how male and female hobbits act or look.
In neither dwarven nor elven society do there seem to be any social differences between male and female. Both male and female can become any profession, hold any position, have free will to do what they desire. Of course, dwarowwdams are held in higher regard because female dwarves are rarer then male dwarves, but that seems to be the main difference between genders
So, when the thirteen dwarves are told about a hobbit by Gandalf, a male hobbit that lives in the shire, all of them assume that it must be a male hobbit. But then they show up to the bag end, and are meet with a tiny little person.
and all of a sudden they aren't so sure.
None of them have any knowledge on Hobbit society, nor of any differences between genders. The only thing they can go off, is the fact that the shire is near Bree. Bree, a settlement for the race of men. The race of men, which is known to have show some obvious differences between men and women, social and physical. This is something that they would all be aware of, living as nomads after Erebour and making trade with men.
And so, the dwarves are introduced to a tiny person, that:
- Cooks and bakes
- Keeps a strict personal hygien
- Complains about the rest of the companies personal hygien
- Gardens
- Has never traveled far, with or without an escort
- Is easily frightened by small criters and does not like getting dirty
- Moans about the state of his clothes and washing.
- Seems INCREASINGLY fragile
- does not know how to handle a weapon
- does not know how to fight in any kind
- Fusses over the state of his kitchen, cutlery and his plates
- Fusses over the ponies and gives them extra treats
- Picks flowers, herbs and nuts by the side of the road
- Does not have nor seem to grow a beard
- Gossips about the other hobbits (in Particular a female relative)
- Doilies
All things that seems to, at least by the standards of men, indicate a more feminine person.
And so, by the end of the first week many in the company come to the conclusion that, much like many dwarrodams, Master Baggins is a female hobbit disgused as male.
It makes sense after all. It is well known that men treat their women folk differently from dwarves and elves, where everything is mostly equal. Bilbo, as the sole child of his parents would need to hide him being female, assuming hobbits followed similar rules and standards as the men they live neighbors with. It would be the only way for him to continue living like he was, considering his parents where dead and he was sole heir to them both.
So, it just makes sense that Bilbo would be a female hobbit in disguise.
None of the dwarves make any mentions of this fact. It would be rude to do so, and could endanger the hobbit in the long run. So no mention is made of it. Until Rivendell that is.
For it isn't until Rivendel, when it comes up in a conversation between Fili and Kili. The two brothers sit and discuss the company, and when Bilbo comes up, Kili asks Fili whether he thinks Bilbo will ever reveal to the company that she is female.
Fili looks at his brother surprised, before inquiring what he's on about.
And after the two brothers run around talking too the rest of the company (excluding Bilbo and Gandalf), it comes to attention that around half the company has come to Kili conclusion (Bilbo is female disguised as Male) and the other half think similar to Fili (Bilbo is just male).
And so, multiple bets are made, and multiple plans are put into place to figure out the mystery of the gender of Bilbo.
None of them comes right out and asks. No matter what turns out to be true, it would be considerably rude to just ASK Bilbo something like this.
Instead, multiple plans are put into place to try and figure it all out. including, but not limited to:
- Checking if Bilbo grows a beard at any point
- ask Oin if he knows. The healer wacks whoever asks with his trumpet, stating patient-healer confidentiality. (In reality, Oin has just as little an idea as the rest of them)
- Ask Gandalf, who never answers, but laughs until they are sure he's going to pass out from lack of oxygen.
- Ask Bilbo about the shire, which doesn't reveal any further information, other than the dwarves learning who to avoid if they ever go to the shire (some lass named Lobelia is put high on the list of "avoid at all cost")
- See if Bilbo has the *cough* right assets (an idea that is immediately scraped, no matter how much money is now in the bettingpool. None of the dwarves want to break Bilbos trust nor make him uncomfortable in any way, so the idea never go anywhere other than hypothetical)
- See if they can get Bilbo to bath at the same time in a river they pass (no success)
In the end, none of them actually ever find out on the quest the mysterious gender of Bilbo Baggins.
I think it can end in a couple of ways, depending on what you like.
1. The Thilbo ending
As this entire plot is happening, Thorin is just as confused as any of them about the true gender of the hobbit, a fact that distresses him more and more the farther they go on their journey. espesially when he comes to the realisation that he has become quite infatuated with the hobbit.
Bilbo and Thorin confess to each other during the battle, and shares eachother company for the first time soon after (everyone lives, nobody dies alright?). The next day Thorin walks up to Nori, the keeper of the bet, and simply states "Male" before walking of red in the face. Nori laughs his ass of, and properly distributes the earnings to all the winners.
The hole ordeal is forgotten about, and no mention is made to Bilbo until years later. After Bilbo finds out Thorin has to sleep in his office for a week.
2. They never find out
It's like it says, none of the Dwarves ever figure out the truth, but none of them really care that much and it doesn't really affect any of them, so none of them are really bothered other than being curious from time to time.
This could end similairly with Bilbo finding out about the hole ordeal years later, after which he gives the company the cold shoulder for a couple of days. But he never tells them what the truth is, and none of them ever find out.
3. Someone else asks.
Someone not apart of the company straight up asks Bilbo the question they are all wondering. The company quickly comes to Bilbos defense, ready to defend his honor. Instead Bilbo simply shrugs, and answer, simply giving no fucks.
The company feels very baffled (and stupid)
it's the way "the last goodbye" is about thorin's last goodbye to the life, his home and everyone who he was dear to and bilbo's last goodbye to the thorin, the company and the road they shared together at the same time for me
I am unsure about hobbits' clothes. Tried to make them a reminiscence of their past fashion, but what hobbits' fashion was like 500 years ago? Still, let it be so at the moment.
Hello (*゚▽゚)ノ here to request some thorin x reader where the reader is a dragon trainer ? She lived with dragons since young and Smaug was actually her familiar/partner before, now she is trying to help the Dwarves get their home
Hello!! This is such a cool idea and it makes me want to watch How to Train Your Dragon...
Edit: I just now realized this was supposed to be a Thorin x reader... And I wrote just a Company x reader.. I’m so sorry!
Anywho, I hope you enjoy it!
“So you work with…Dragons,” Balin was carefully wording his sentences, in hopes of not offending you, nor his kin that he knew were listening very closely as he sat across from you. The fire crackled in the background and it reminded you of teaching the young drakes to control their fire in terms of intensity and range.
You had yet to sign the contract, wanting to read every bit of it thoroughly. As you told Gandalf, if there were any bits of information regarding killing or hurting Smaug, you would not sign it and you wouldn’t join in on their mission.
Looking up from the parchment, you gave him a smile. “I do,” You encouraged, putting a finger where you were last reading so you could continue in a moment.
“Do you know of Dragon Trainers, Sir Balin?” You inquired, tilting your head.
“I’m afraid I do not,” Balin chuckled nervously to which you nodded in understanding.
“I know Smaug had hurt you all severely, and for that, I am forever sorry,” You began, “But please know, that not all dragons are like him. He lost his way,” You sighed, looking back down at the paper.
“How do you know he lost his way?”
“I once worked with him, when he was younger.” You realized you now had an audience. The entire Company now hovering in the doorway, trying to not look so suspicious.
“His former trainer died from old age, and he was heartbroken, he barely got up to hunt or make a small hoard, so they gave him to me to work with,” You began to tell his story, remembering play fighting with the small drake, taking him to get treats whenever he did exceptionally well during training.
He transformed in front of your eyes. No longer was he the depressed dragon that he came to you as, he was kind and playful, courteous and passionate. Not this greedy, murderous, vicious beast that the world saw him as.
“And what happened?” Balin seemed very interested, wanting to know how he went from being in something akin to a dragon’s camp to rampaging his home.
“We aren’t entirely sure,” You shook your head, “But the elder trainers think that it had to do with the unearthing of the Dragon Stone, or what most called it, the Arkenstone.”
It felt like the world was put on pause as Balin stared at you in horror.
“It’s a magnificent jewel, yes,” You nodded, “Beautiful and vibrant, glowing on its own. But it also has magic within it,” You explained. Pausing to put the quill where your finger was so you could grab your book out of your bag.
“See here,” You flipped the pages rapidly to get to where you had put a placeholder before. The Arkenstone was drawn in the center, glowing bright, with dragons lined up behind it.
“For some reason, the magic within it causes unfathomable greed in mankind, but for dragons, it sparks undeniable rage that is only calmed whenever the dragons are near it. Like some sort of drug,” You explained, “We haven’t ever been able to have a dragon near one without it causing them to go feral.”
“So you think when the Arkenstone was found and put in King Thror’s throne-”
“It was a beacon to dragons to come take it,” You finished Kili’s sentence as he approached the two of you.
“I don’t know if that’s the exact reason he did what he did, and nothing can excuse the hell he rained down on you all,” You looked over to them.
“What Smaug did was terrible, and I understand that you want his head on a pedestal,” You focused on Thorin, eyes pleading.
“Just let me help get you your homeland back. I can get him out safely and take him so he can go back to the far north so our elders can work with him.”
“How do you know he’ll go with you?” Ori piped in, looking concerned.
“I am a dragon trainer, and since he has left and done this, well, we’ve trained in how to deal with dragons that are falling to Dragon Stone magic.”
“Bilbo can help me get the stone away from Smaug,” You looked at the newly contracted burglar with a grin, “And once it’s out of sight and covered, the magic effects should wear off and he should come to his senses.”
Thorin sighed deeply through his nose before approaching.
“We will trust what you can do, Lady Dragon Trainer.”
“Thorin-” Dwalin opened his mouth to argue but Thorin shook his head.
“Gandalf believes in what she can do, and if this can end with little bloodshed…” Thorin paused, recalling all of his kin screaming as dragon-fire exploded through the kingdom walls. Thousands of their military were wiped out within seconds.
“Then I will gratefully take the opportunity.”
“You won’t regret it, Thorin,” You bowed your head in thanks before resuming reading the contract, nerves twisting in your stomach. You had a long journey ahead of you.

Imagine being sent to Thranduil along with Thorin
Small explanation. Y/N actually knows Thranduil as a close friend. She was his confidant when he became king. He knows that she is not from this world and was sent here and posesses the ability to change the fate of all middle earth. (Time travel kinda stuff?) Anyways HAPPY READING
Thranduil: I will let you go, if you but return which is mine.
Y/N: Honestly not sure why I'm here? Can I leav-
Thranduil: *interrupts* Silence Pethryn.
Thorin: A favour for a favour
Thranduil: You have my word, one king to another.
Y/N: *cringes, knowing that's next.*
Thorin: I would not trust, Thranduil, great king, to honour his word, should the end of all days be upon us.
Y/N: *sighs and looks down* Shit.
Thorin: I have seen how you treat your friends. We came to you once. Starving, homeless, seeking your help. But you turned your back.
Thranduil and Y/N: *looks at eachother but remains silent*
Thorin: *continues* You turned away from the suffering of my people. The inferno that destroyed us. Imrid amrâd ursul! (Die a fiery death)
Y/N: *loudly* Enough Thorin.
Thranduil: Do not talk to me of dragon fire. I know it's wrath and ruin. I have faced the great serpents of the north.
Y/N: *looks away from his scar*
Thranduil: I warned your grandfather what his greed would summon, but he would not take heed. You are no different.
*Gestures to the guards to take him away*
Stay here if you will and rot. A hundred years is a mere blink, in the eyes of an elf.
Thorin and gaurds exit
Y/N: Rather dramatic aren't we old friend? *smirks*
Thranduil: *refuses to look at you* Do not think I did not notice you turn away.
Y/N: *looks down* I cannot bear to look upon the pain I brought you. That day, that scar. It was meant for me.
Thranduil: Mellon nin, I would face the serpents once more if I were but to keep you safe.
Y/N: We went needlessly into battle. I was the one who should have-
Thranduil: Enough. You have spent a millennia repenting and punishing yourself for something I never blamed you for. I have nothing but fate to thank that it brings you back to my halls even if unwillingly. I have spent centuries waiting for your council again.
Y/N: *sighs and kneels* I have missed you Aran nin.
Thranduil: The Narrator does not kneel to a mere King in passing time, stand. I will not tell you again, lest my people think I have gone soft or mad.
Y/N: *grins* By the way you do know that they will escape.
Thranduil: And I guess I am not able to stop them?
Y/N: Nope.
Thranduil: Will you be joining them?
Y/N: *skips up to his throne and sits* All in due time my friend. Patience is a virtue.~
Thranduil: *picks her up with one hand by the scruff and sets her off his throne* Stop that. It is unbecoming. Go eat, tis the Feast of Starlight.
Y/N: Already on it! See ya later loser.
Y/N exits
Thranduil: *mutters from his throne* How they are able to switch between a child and an adult that is burdened with the fate of time, never ceases to confuse me.

Imagine getting ready to leave Beorns's home and travel to Mirkwood.
Thorin: "Gandalf, time is wasting."
Beorn: "There is more. Not long past, word spread.. the dead had been seen walking near the High Fells of Rhudaur."
Y/N frowns and meets Beorn's concerned eyes.
Y/N: "The dead you say?"
Beorn: "Is it true? Are there tombs in those mountains?"
Y/N and Gandalf look at each other and think back.
*A memory*
Galadriel: "When Angmar fell... the Men of the North took his body, and all that he had possessed and sealed it within the High Fells of Rhudaur.
Deep within the rock, they buried him.
In a tomb so dark.. it would never come to light."
Gandalf: "Yes. Yes there are tombs up there."
Beorn: "I remember a time when a great evil ruled these lands. One powerful enough... to raise the dead.
Y/N side eyes Gandalf.
Beorn: "If that enemy has returned to Middle Earth... I would have you tell me."
Gandalf: "Saruman the White, says it's not possible."
Y/N: *spits out* "Blast that old man."
Gandalf: *pats Y/N's shoulder reassuring her.* "The enemy was destroyed and will never return."
Beorn: "And what does Gandalf the Grey say?"
*Gandalf shakes his head, unsure.*
Y/N: *Steps forward.* "We must go."
Beorn: "Yes. Go now, while you have the light."
*A howl rings out through the trees*
Beorn: "Your hunters are not far behind."
Y/N: "Thank you Beorn."
Beorn: "No you can't keep one of my puppies."
Y/N: "Fine."

The guards look at her strangely before beginning to shut the gate.
*Y/N groans and mumbles*
Y/N: "This is gonna hurt like a bitch isn't it. Where's Tauriel when you need her. Stupid world doesn't even have her in it. Stupid movie made me think she was an actual character"
*She huffs while running towards the gate*
Y/N "ORCS! WATCH OUT!"

*She gasps and struggles to stand. She bites down on her lip and forces the arrow out, snapping off the feathered end and pulling it out. Kili drags her over the edge of the gate and Y/N slips into a barrel with him below*

Øin: "Glóin, help me brother."

Need to keep moving."
