More House of Durin doddles!

[mrkida-art]

The children of Thráin II; Thorin, Frerin and Dís.

My favourite thing about the Hobbit is that both Bilbo and Thorin are not considered attractive by their own peoples beauty standards, but they find the other insanely attractive

I once was young and unafraid.

The sons of Durin 1.

[pilkypills]

Kili’s micro-expressions during the “We are sons of Durin” scene are SO. AUGH. MY GOD. The unsure look in his eyes. The lip wobble. The scrunch in his nose when Thorin gently headbutts him. My god he was just a kid. Just a boy who wanted to do the right thing.

Durin family sketches

[shurikthereject]

Some sketches/wips that ive done in my current sketchbook plus some from my old sketchbook. This is a pretty weird format since i dont post so much all at once but its kinda fun! The last two are doodles of me and my friends as lotr characters with me as the hobbit (ofc)

The poll is done and you have spoken: most of you have the headcanon that Dwarves come of age at the age of 70. That's my headcanon, too, funnily enough.

So let us use some cross-multiplication to put some things into perspective. I use the age of 21 as a benchmark, since that was the age of majority during Tolkien's youth.

Let's find out, how old some of the characters were in human years during certain events.

Thorin was 1,5 years old, when Frerin was born, and about 4 years old, when Dís was born. He was about 7 years old, when Smaug came, and about 16, when he fought in Azanulbizar and lost grandfather, father and brother and became King. He was about 34, when Fíli was born. He died at 58,5 years old.

Frerin was about 3, when his sister was born, about 6, when the Dragon came, and died at about 14 years old in Azanulbizar.

Dís was 3, when Smaug stole Erebor, and about 12, when her brothers fought in Azanulbizar. She was about 30 years old, when her first son was born, and about 54, when she lost her immediate family during the Battle of the Five Armies.

Fíli was 1,5 years old, when his brother was born, and 6, when his cousin Gimli was born. He died before his 25th birthday.

Kíli was 4,5 years old, when Gimli was born, and died at 23 years old.

At the end of the quest, Gimli was about 18 years old, and probably in the beginning angry that he wasn't allowed to come with them, and then utterly heartbroken.

I can only talk about myself, but I think it speaks volumes, that Gimli had to stay home at 18, while Frerin died at 14 in Azanulbizar. I do wonder, if Thorin every questioned, what the hell his grandfather and the other adults were thinking, especially considering that Frerin wasn't the youngest by far (Dáin was 9 years old and Glóin only 5). If that isn't transgenerational trauma and Glóin breaking the circle, then I don't know what to say. I did the math in preparation for a fic and before that I never realized, how young they were during Azanulbizar and, to be honest, I was appalled.

(Most of the numbers are rounded and no promises that everything is correct.)

everyone talks about gandalf seeing fili and kili in merry and pippin but i'm thinking about thorin seeing himself and frerin in his nephews 😭✋

[ambusterpm]

Thorin has been asked to round up his siblings for their lessons, and he is maybe being less diligent then one could hope

[callmeamy]

So, we all know how Thorin is like, but am I the only one wondering how Frerin was like? I imagine Thorin being the grumpy and Frerin the charming, flirtatious one. I also imagine him looking and behaving exactly like Fili.

I mean, let's be honest, it would have been really funny seeing Frerin and Thorin show up on Bilbos doorstep. I keep imagining Frerin keeping on flirting with Bilbo and making really dirty remarks while Thorin is standing in the corner embarrassed and shaking his head the whole time.
