It's not a ship I'm super into, but I was thinking about Hobbit things, and listening to Hadestown and all of a sudden I have a Mighty Need for a Thorin/Bilbo = Hades/Persephone AU

I mean... it fits SO WELL.

King Under The Mountain = King of Silver, Gold, and Everything Glittering Under The Ground

Hobbit of Gentle Rivers and Rolling Hills = Goddess of Spring and Summer and Growing Things.

The fundamentally opposing personalities and priorities, and a relationship started with deep and true love that has turned hollow and bitter over the long years.

The angst and strife of two people who have forgotten how to love the other and continue trying to "fix" things to ever increasing levels of disaster.

So much potential for angst... so. much. 😈

I mean, Y'ALL just listen to this song to see where I'm coming from lmao

#gotta put everything on hold to go trawling through AO3 now #surely Somebody else has had this idea already #the hobbit #don't even get me started on Hades' bit from the Chant reprise #'if you wanna keep a woman son. shackle her from wrist to wrist with sterling silver bracelets. bind her with a golden band.'#i haven't looked much into this ship. but i know y'all like a dragon-sick Thorin lavishing Bilbo with riches thinking it will will his love #Spotify
