Lotr/the hobbit x druid!reader pt2

Ori x reader, Thorin x reader, Elrond x reader

Here is the >> part 1 << thank you so much for +500 likes/reblogs for that one! I hope you like this one too! ^^

Ori

🧸 You're the most beautiful being he has ever laid eyes on. At the start he would be too shy to approach you. So he will ask his friends about love and relationships, but also what they know about druids, which isn't so easy since druids aren’t common at all (at least in my fanfictions).

🧸 Ori LOVES your animal forms, specially the ones with fur and he will ask you as nicely as he can master, if he can pet you in any of it's form.

 “Excuse me y/n, if you ever would have the time to transform into any animal, would it be alright if i could pet you? Of course only if you would be fine with it and if it wouldn't make you uncomfortable?”

🧸 If you came with them on their journey to take back Erebor, Ori will tell you awkwardly and a bit shyly, that he doesn't mind holding you if you ever get tired of flying/walking. 

🧸 He is going to try so hard for you! You are so strong, dependable and just so amazing to him. Ori is really looking up to you and he wants you to feel like you can depend on him too! He wants to protect you too, even if he isn't so strong, but he will train extra hard for you! You probably have to tell him once in a while that he is good enough or he will think he is unworthy of you.

Thorin

💎 Doesn't believe Gandalf when he tells him that a druid will be supporting them in their journey. 

“Nobody I know has ever met a druid and hearing about them isn't often. I bet they are nothing but a myth”.

💎 When Thorin meets you he still doesn't believe you're a druid. Just probably an odd wizard/witch that is playing tricks on him. Until you transform…holy shit! Can wizards/witches do that?? He looks at Gandalf only to see him smirking. 

💎 It isn't your animal forms or element abilities that interest him, but the way you transform. The way your body bends and takes shapes after whatever you are supposed to transform to. The moment you change, the moment he has his eyes on you. It may be weird for you or him, but Thorin can't help it! It's so fascinating and it's like he is trying to figure out how you are doing it, but always fails. 

💎 Thorin has probably been looking at you a little too much during battles because the way you fight with your abilities makes you look so gorgeous. Which could leave him getting seriously injured if his teammates didn't watch his back.

“Y/n stop distracting Thorin! Or he loses his focus and dies before making it to Erebor!”

“What!? I didn't do anything?!”

Thorin: “S-shut up!”

Elrond

🍁 He knows the moment he sees you, that you're a druid. 

“It was a long time ago I met a druid. I’m glad to see there's still some more out there”.

🍁 Elrond will invite you over for dinner and have them serve you the best they can make. And he’ll offer you a place to stay for a few days if you're not in a hurry somewhere else.

🍁 Elrond love's to watch you using your ‘magic’ on flowers and plants. He loves to watch how you move your hands so gracefully and shape the plants the way you want it. It's so stunning every time! 

🍁 The first time you showed him your powers. You'd asked Elrond about the beautiful flowers in his garden and if you could take some seeds with you. Elrond of course accepted and was about to go and get you the seeds but he stopped in his tracks and watched you move your hands around one of the flowers and give it enough energy to have it grow the seeds you needed. Elrond stood there speechless. That was something he’d never witnessed before and it was so magnificent.

“Would you like to have some other flower seeds as well?”

Thank you for reading! Have a good day! ❤ Reblogs are very appreciated 🥰

Books, whispers and courting chaos 

Reading (or at least trying to) in the library while gossiping. Reader is married to Dwalin. 

Reader x Dwalin, Balin x platonic!reader, Ori x platonic!reader. 

The grand library of Erebor was my favorite place in the mountain. Rows upon rows of ancient tomes and scrolls filled the air with the comforting scent of old parchment and ink. It was a haven of quiet, a place where I could escape the noise and bustle of dwarves hammering in the forges or arguing over supplies. Today, however, the quiet was a little livelier than usual. 

Across the table sat Balin, his beard neatly combed and his expression equal parts sage and sly. Beside him was Ori, scribbling notes in the margins of his journal, his wide-eyed enthusiasm for every topic contagious. And then there was me, tucked into the corner, pretending to read but failing miserably as Balin and Ori kept pulling me into their chatter. 

“So,” Balin said, a glint of mischief in his eye as he peered over the rim of his spectacles, “how’s the courting going with my brother?” 

I groaned, closing the book I wasn’t reading. “Is that what we’re doing today? Gossiping about Dwalin?” 

“We wouldn’t call it gossip,” Ori chimed in, looking up from his writing. “It’s more like… research. For posterity.” 

“For posterity?” I asked, raising an eyebrow. 

“Yes,” Ori said, entirely earnest. “Your courtship with Dwalin is quite the topic of interest. It’s not every day someone manages to tame a grizzly bear.” 

Balin laughed so hard his beard quivered. “A grizzly bear! That’s spot on, lad. Though I’d say my brother’s more like a grizzly bear with a battle axe.” 

“He’s not that bad,” I protested, though my cheeks burned. “He’s just… protective.” 

“Protective?” Balin repeated, leaning forward. “Is that what we’re calling it now? Because last week, I saw him glowering at a merchant for asking you if you needed help carrying your wares. Poor fellow packed up and left the mountain within the hour.” 

“That’s because the merchant was overcharging!” I said defensively, though the memory did make me laugh. “Besides, Dwalin’s not all gruff and scowls. You both know he has a soft side.” 

Balin gave me a skeptical look. “A soft side? You’ll have to point that out next time. I’ve known him for over a century, and I’ve yet to see it.” 

Ori tilted his head thoughtfully. “I did see him give a loaf of bread to one of the children in the lower halls last week. He muttered something about how ‘a warrior can’t fight on an empty stomach,’ but I’m fairly sure he was just being kind.” 

“There, you see?” I said, gesturing triumphantly. “He has his moments.” 

“Few and far between,” Balin teased, though there was a fondness in his voice. “Still, I’ll admit, you seem to bring out the best in him. I’ve never seen Dwalin so… patient before.” 

Ori nodded eagerly. “Yes, like when you made him sit through that storytelling session last month! He looked like he’d rather face a goblin horde, but he stayed the whole time.” 

“And didn’t complain,” Balin added. “Out loud, anyway.” 

I smiled, feeling a warm flutter in my chest. “He tries, you know. Even if he grumbles, he’s always there when it matters. That’s why I—” I cut myself off, realizing I was about to reveal too much. 

“Why you what?” Balin pressed, his grin widening. 

I waved him off, pretending to be engrossed in my book again. “Nothing. Forget I said anything.” 

“Oh, no,” Ori said, setting down his quill and leaning in eagerly. “You can’t leave us hanging like that.” 

Balin crossed his arms, clearly enjoying himself. “Go on, then. Spit it out.” 

I sighed, knowing they wouldn’t let it go. “Fine. That’s why I love him, all right? Because beneath all that gruffness, he’s the most loyal, steadfast dwarf I’ve ever met. He’d do anything for the people he cares about.” 

There was a moment of silence before Balin smiled warmly. “Aye, that he would. I’m glad he’s found someone who sees that in him. He deserves it.” 

Ori beamed, looking like he was about to write the entire exchange down in his journal. “That’s wonderful. I’m so happy for you both.” 

“Thank you,” I said, feeling a little embarrassed but also grateful for their support. “Now, can we talk about something else before Dwalin bursts in here and finds you two grilling me about him?” 

“Fine, fine,” Balin said, holding up his hands in mock surrender. “But only because I don’t fancy getting on his bad side. Let’s see… Ori, what’s the latest scandal in the lower halls?” 

Ori’s face lit up. “Oh, you won’t believe this! I heard that Bombur caught Nori sneaking into the kitchens again last night. Apparently, he was trying to—” 

The conversation shifted to other matters, and soon the library was filled with laughter and the rustling of pages. But as I listened to my friends and glanced at the books around us, I felt a deep sense of contentment. Courting Dwalin might come with its challenges, but with Balin and Ori by my side, I knew I’d always have a place to laugh, share secrets, and be myself.

the hobbit + hozier songs

characters included: kíli, bilbo, dwalin, thorin, nori, bofur, ori, fíli, dori, tauriel

word count: 1166

a/n: the amazing and precious @wordbunch inspired me to write these bc of her lotr/th characters as taylor swift songs posts & i couldn't be more excited to finally post this labor of love!! thank you bestie for listening to me scream abt this for nearly two months lol

kíli: foreigner’s god

he loves outside of his race and this fact causes undue scorn to be thrown at his feet. it’s unheard of for almost any dwarf, let alone one from the line of durin, to do such a thing. this does not deter him - it empowers him; if his heart could go against the traditions forged into his bones, molten in his hot blood, how could it not be true? the strength of his love is what helps him ignore the doubts shouted by the prejudice plaguing those who know nothing of his heart. that, and the sound of your laughter at his antics, the soft smiles only given to him when he’s being a little too charming… he could go on.

bilbo: like real people do

as much flack as bilbo gets from the company for not being conventionally tough, he’s not weak by any means. he’s familiar with the pain of loss, and how the ways one tries to rise above the grief that follows aren’t always savory. he knows there’s a respect to be found in the absence of prying questions, choosing simply to coexist in the feelings and allow answers to come in their own sweet time. he’ll put some tea on to cook and scrounge up some leftovers from the previous meal, sitting beside you and letting the comfort flow naturally, his soft lips soothing the most tender aches.

dwalin: work song

just looking at him, you wouldn’t think dwalin a sap. but with his insanely strong sense of loyalty and stalwart dedication, he can’t be anything but. he’s faced down innumerable evils in his time, braved the fiercest of storms that many of his comrades didn’t; none of them even come close to keeping him from you. your arms welcome him home without question after each fight he braves, and your letters tucked into secret compartments in his armor keep him warm between embraces. he’ll read them by the fire every night when he’s away, every gentle word carrying his mind away from thoughts of the day’s turmoil.

thorin: sedated

this sweet, sad man doesn’t think he deserves good things in life. this, unfortunately, includes having someone love him despite his flaws and past mistakes. he couldn’t resist admitting his feelings for you and was ridiculously shocked that you reciprocated & allowed him to love you. on nights when he feels his failures deeper, he’ll try to convince you that he doesn’t deserve you. vitriol will escape from worried lips and terrified heart, piercing you in the way only a lover knows how. a soft kiss, gentle words, and a few strokes through his hair will soothe these wounds from him for a time and allow him some of the peace he’s fought to find, but doesn’t always believe is earned.

nori: it will come back

it was decades since the last time nori thought of love, even longer since he believed himself worthy of it. meeting you only solidified his disbelief; how could someone look at him and see someone that deserved such a pure thing, after everything he’s done in his life? he’s stolen, lied, cheated, and killed to survive (and sometimes not for mere survival). his attempts to spurn you away from him only increased your determination to break through the fortress he built around himself. he could only be strong against your advances for so long before he crumbled, reluctantly accepting the love and peace and safety you offered so freely.

bofur: nobody

bofur’s done a lot in his time. he was born in the blue mountains, a colony that never seemed to find the prosperity needed to do more than simply survive. he is a brother, uncle, cousin, friend, toymaker, miner, member of the great company that reclaimed erebor. but through all his adventures and hardships, he never lost his playful streak. he wants to have fun with who he loves, wants a little bit of mischief to make his laugh louder and brighter. bofur is a fun-loving soul who, despite his wandering past, will always choose you over anywhere that you’re not.

ori: francesca

ori’s life has never been a peaceful one. being raised by dori and being followed by the whispers of his late amad’s reputation (not to mention nori’s) without a mountain to call home, it weighed on his shoulders. even his craft, the pride of every dwarrow worth their beard, happened to be one seen as miniscule in importance compared to smithing. every moment spent with his one, doing anything or nothing at all, eases the burden he carries and makes every moment of strife worth it just to be with the soul made to mirror his.

fíli: i, carrion (icarian)

your love for him seems almost too good to be true, the remnants of stories told in dusty tomes written by those with far more eloquence than he can claim to possess. that being said, he is definitely not one to look a gift boar in the mouth. he relishes in each tender moment, every second spent in your presence that carries him far beyond the constraints life has placed upon him. but he recognizes that life isn’t always so simple, retreating into your arms and wishing that everything around you both just disappears. there’s always reality, waiting patiently outside of your chambers for one faulty misstep to throw you both askew. that’s why he dedicates himself to showing you that if life does what it does best and deals harsh blows, he will be there for you through it all.

dori: shrike

dori never had time for love; he had two brothers to protect, one more wily than the other was young. his focus was on getting his brothers through the days, putting food on their plates and the semi-frequently used stash of bail money well-stocked. he allowed his feelings for his one to fall to the wayside in the name of preservation. he ignored their call for decades and braved out the pain that came with such a silence. he begged for his one’s forgiveness every time they called for him. but once the mountain was reclaimed and his brothers safe, he yearned for what he could have had. he would approach his one with much regret and sorrow for the time lost, but a pure hope that they could find forgiveness in their heart for him.

tauriel: unknown/nth

to earn her love is a feat unlike that which the world has known for a long time. being seen as worth all these mortal struggles and painful toils in the eyes of an elf, let alone one as fierce as tauriel, is quite the achievement to anyone outside looking in. to the red-haired warrior in question, though, giving her love to you has the same unthinking ease as breathing; it’s beyond instinct to do and just as necessary to her survival. you’re worth every century spent alone, every moment after knowing you spent away from you.

Clear As Mud- Ori x F!Reader

Gotta show my boy some love on this blog 😌 Warnings: some language, a suggestive joke

(Gif by @the-hobbit! Will take down if requested)

It was an absolutely lovely day for some bullshit. Nothing like you had been going through yourself, of course. For you had been traveling for weeks with this company of dwarves and yet the object of your affection had somehow not caught wise to it at all, and while you found that endearing, even from the most adorable dwarf you had ever met it could only be endured for so long.

Thus, taking matters into your own hands was the natural conclusion of it all. Nothing left to do but put the idea in Ori's head by a new means, means you couldn't help deviously smiling to yourself over. You could just picture the way his eyes would widen in wonder, jaw dropping in innocent awe, and it made your heart smile and skip a beat.

Wandering over to where the scribe had sat down, legs folded to hold his drawing pad up and hands, of course, scribbling away at the very same, you took a seat on the rock adjacent to his.

“You know, it still surprises me that Thorin has no interest in utilizing my services,” you remarked in mock-surprise, a hand resting beneath your chin, “Have you heard much about it?”

Ori’s attention snapped fully up from his drawing at that. “Services? We were supposed to be at yours! Perhaps he’s like me and he doesn’t know what you offer! What is it that he wants none of?”

Fighting a grin, you shrugged. “Not everyone takes stock in psychics. Don’t want to find anything out from foresight, I suppose. That can change things, for certain. Even just a fortune telling might be nice, though. Put him at ease, you understand.”

Sure enough, Ori’s eyes widened just as you pictured. Line cast, time to pull it in.

“I think I do! So you can read fortunes? And Thorin doesn’t want one? Who wouldn’t want one?”

His gloved hands spread in excitement, brown eyes positively glittering upon you, sending your heart leaping and lips smiling.

“You’ve got that exactly right,” you nodded, “No one’s wanted one yet. Maybe they indeed are not all aware.”

“Oh, do me! Do me!” Ori jittered, folding his pad completely shut and casing his charcoal. “Let me be the first- oh, Nori will be quite jealous!”

Your smile only grew at his pleased look. Shifting on your rock’s rough surface to find a more comfortable sector of your arse for it to dig into, you reached into the depths of your pockets for the props you’d prepared. You could make plenty a choice joke about his initial phrasing there, but when you had him so reeled there was no sense in risking scaring him off. Snickering and flushing to yourself would have to do.

Props you’d brought readied, you twisted the point of crystal a peddler had given you between your fingers, hopefully mysteriously.

“My focus. I will call upon it to channel my power,” you told Ori, eyelids fluttering shut and the fingers of your other hand drawing a swirl in the dirt with a feather you’d found between them.

“Do I need to do anything?” He asked, eyes still wide as he leaned forward on his rock.

“Take my hand,” you answered in a solemn voice, extending yours facing palm-up.

Complying immediately, Ori extended his and took yours firmly, sending thrilling sparks up your arm as the warmth of his gloves hit. His fingers were thick, strong as a dwarf’s were expected to be, but longer, nimbler than those of the rest. No wonder he was such a skilled artist. The sight of them upon yours was nice. Right. Quite right indeed.

You hummed for a moment before speaking again. “Your fortune is very…fortunate. Much luck coming your way, yes indeed. You’ll make it through this all, you know.”

Should you have felt guilty for saying something you didn’t truly know? You couldn’t, not when you knew you spoke it as a promise. As you lived and breathed you would let no harm come to Ori. And beside that, thus might he find his own courage. In fact…

To a smiling Ori you continued. “You will find your courage. I see it. And you will go on to great things. Perhaps even find your One. Your One, yes… It is faint, I grant, but I can see her. She loves to read.”

He grinned. “Just like me!”

And me, you thought with a smile of your own, you know that. “Big fan of a good cuppa, too, she’s got one in her hand. Lavender, it looks like. Good taste.”

“That’s your favorite, isn’t it?”

Humming, you nodded. “I’m beginning to make out something beyond the shadows. Colors. A complexion.”

Naturally, you described your own in as vague a terminology as you could manage. Her dress was your favorite color as well.

“Another vision. It appears she wields a staff.”

That, certainly, was the cherry on top of the bullshit pile, for you wielded the very same and surely Ori didn’t know that many young ladies who carried such. Or if he did, maybe you’d challenge them.

“You’ll have all the wealth you can want, too. Certainly comfort will be yours, Ori. You’re meant to be a great scribe, a piece of the history of your people.”

“Wow,” your beloved dwarf puffed out his chest a bit at that, suddenly looking adorably proud of himself, “You can really see all that? Tell me more about my One- when do I meet her?”

“You should know that when it happens. Or if it has already.” Biting your tongue, you subdued the frustration threatening to rise into your tone, working back into the mysterious rhythm you’d been using. “Search within your heart and you will surely find the answers it seeks.”

“I will,” Ori replied, big brown eyes wide, “I already am! Thank you.”

Your name, sweet as always upon his lips, brought your ‘reading’ to a close and Ori’s hands folding dreamily upon his pad as his eyes drifted up toward the rolling clouds. Leaving you wondering, should you leave him be? Should you-

Motion alerted the peripheries of your vision, shifting over the grey-blue backdrop of sky and the distant horizon of trees and mountains. Ori had moved his head. Ori was staring at you. Glancing back away, you pretended not to notice, focused instead on that beautiful sky, the point of peace amidst the chaotic weeks.

When the sound of your name cut through your introspection, though, you finally turned to look him head-on.

"Can-can I draw you?"

Head cocked. Still the brown-haired dwarf looked at you with an intense focus you'd never seen before, focus tempered only by the faintest of fear, as if you might hex him or else he was a rabbit looking into an enticing trap, thrilled but worried for his life.

A thrill of your own slid down your spine. "Of course you can! Do you want me to pose?" You joked, leaning forward with your head upon your folded hands.

"No, I just want to look at you like you are. If that's alright, of course!" Ori hastily amended, charcoal in hand once more.

Heart leaping, you nodded and smiled. "It is. Of course it is."

"You know," Ori leaned in closer, eyes narrowing and widening again, "I never realized it before."

"What's that?"

"The way the lines of your smile trace," he answered softly, the sound of charcoal running gently over paper overtaking the flushed silence that followed.

~

Ori had been hovering about you more of late. Talking to you that much more. You, in turn, had been wearing that many more smiles, though you'd started to suspect you needed to have another vision. Practiced it in reflections upon bathing streams, clutching your head and stumbling until it looked natural. Of course, it would also have to be just the two of you lest someone like Dwalin or Thorin or worse, Fili and Kili, call bullshit and never let you forget it again-

"Are you alright? Are you scrying or something?"

Starting, you whipped your head up and lowered the cup of tea you'd been inadvertently grimacing into, suddenly aware that Ori had called your name somewhere beneath the muting of your reverie.

"Uh, yes. Absolutely," you answered, "Scrying. It's a bit harder to do in tea, you know."

"Of course," Ori nodded with far too much understanding and focus, "Well, I won't bother you then, maybe later-"

You were at his side, cup totally abandoned on whatever rock had been your seat, before he could even finish dismissing himself. "Bother me? Hardly. Wasn't even a good vision. Just something about Thorin failing to catch a deer for dinner. Not exciting at all. What did you need?"

"Oh, really?" Ori brightened, posture perking up. "Well, I was just wondering if you'd like to take a walk with me."

"Absolutely," you said, following his lead.

Into the woods you strolled, path crunching softly beneath booted feet and breeze whistling pleasantly past ears and over hair. Ori’s sleeve fluttered against the bare skin of your hand. Fingers momentarily twitching, you just barely resisted the urge to reach out and take his hand, sighing inaudibly into the crisp rush of woodsy air surrounding you. Ori led you deeper until you emerged into a clearing, a smile appearing across your face at the way the sun filtered onto the verdant grass.

“You’ve probably seen what I’m about to say,” he told you sheepishly when your gaze returned to him, “You surely know.”

“No,” you replied, “I, er, cannot see all futures.”

“Well, I’m glad for that, then, in a way. At least you don’t have to stop me telling you how I feel.”

How he…

“I can’t stop thinking about your vision, after all. Of my One. I was pretty sure it was you, but… Well, I got scared. Scared what I was feeling was too good to be true. Not actually it. Or that yours was someone else. Well, I think it’s me, if that’s all right, and I really like you, if you don’t mind my saying so. I really do. I can make you happy. I will. Whatever it takes.”

Your eyes widened at the way he reached out and took your hands in his, peering so earnestly at you, that soft, innocent smile upon his lips. Your heart was shot from its hammering soar, however, by arrows of guilt… and humor. Near-manic humor bubbling up out of your chest as laughter, laughter painted half with joy and half with every momentary shock you felt.

"You do already. I thought the only way to convince you I might do the same was by pretending to be a clairvoyant," you admitted, grip on his hands tightening.

"You were faking it?"

"You weren't making a move!"

"You were so convincing!"

"Well," you grinned, "That's because I really do think I'm the one for you."

"You're lucky I agree," Ori shot back with a shake of his head, "Or else I- I'd..."

"You'd what? Get me back with some bullshit of your own?"

"Something like that," was all he replied before his lips were on yours.

Those thin blades of sunlight struck your cheeks and shoulders, warming you far less than the plush of a gentle kiss and the clutch of joined hands. Ori's sweet lips were everything you imagined, respectful, loving, not prodding but simply reveling in the taste of joy. You held him close as you separated, running a hand along his cheek as the fireworks of finally continued bursting through your illuminated chest.

"See?" It was Ori's turn to grin. "I wasn't afraid. Not this time."

"Clairvoyant or not," you told him, mirroring the love in his eyes tenfold, "I wouldn't have seen that coming."

"Guess we'll have to figure out the future together."

"Now that doesn't sound so bad."

Your hands pressed against the icy stone, you listened to the deafening silence surrounding you with a queasy feeling in your gut.

“It won’t be for long,” Ori smiled soothingly. “We’re good at tunnelling in and out. Don’t worry.”

His nimble, gentle fingers draped a blanket of his own making around your tense shoulders as he tried to distract you from the claustrophobic sensation of being snowed in and cut off from the world.

“Hold me,” you pleaded softly. “When I’m in your arms, I forget about the world.”

“Can do,” he replied lovingly, eagerly wrapping his arms around you.

Ah, my most beloved boy!

Lots of love!

I‘m Alive! Pls request something

Aaaaaand I am reliving my Lord of the Rings/The hobbit obsession and even though this fandom isn’t really that active anymore I wanted to ask for your requests for these fandoms (especially the hobbit)

I write for pretty much any character but I would especially love requests for Thorins company so if you got any send them over

Rules are pinned and requests can be made here

[robin-evry]

Hello! Great to have you back!

So, I was wondering if I could request Ori!Yuu from Ori and the Will of the Wisps with all of his abilities, you can write them as is or humanoid- whichever you want, really.

And if you have no idea who I'm talking about or what Ori can do- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEadwXjlqy0&pp=ygUrb3JpIGFuZCB0aGUgd2lsbCBvZiB0aGUgd2lzcHMgYWxsIGFiaWxpdGllcw%3D%3D -Just use this as a reference for Ori's active abilities.

Also please note that Ori also has passive abilities being, Wall Jump (Pretty much just crawls on anything), Double Jump, Bash (Allows Ori to push themselves away from various objects and enemies, knocking them in the opposite direction), Grapple (Allows Ori to pull themselves in a straight line to various objects and enemies), Glide with a feather, Dash (Allows Ori to charge quickly left or right, even in the air), Swim Dash (Allows Ori to Dash underwater, or near the surface of the water to launch into the air), Burrow (Allows Ori to burrow through sand and snow), Ancestral Light (Grants Ori a 25% damage boost (x2)), and Water Breath (Allows Ori to breathe underwater)

I am very aware this a very large ask, so please know that you don't have to do it, I was just curious of what it would be like if Ori was in Twisted Wonderland.

Please get good sleep, eat as best as you can, and hydrate, it is very important!

Nah I don't mind, I'm happy that you feel safe to express your ideas towards me as well thank you for showing concerned 🤗🤗

I hope this match the character sorry if there's any mistake I mader

Ori is the titular protagonist of Ori and the Blind Forest, a Spirit who is separated from their biological and adoptive family and is thrust into a journey to save the forest of Nibel from a dangerous Decay spreading throughout the land.

During the first week ori!yuu would disguise themselves as human but their true form traits sometimes appear, like their disguise would tend to become translucent for a period of time due to exhaustion of overusing.

The student body would be suspicious over them theorizing between whether or not their human or not or simply a ghost or spirit walking amongst them.

Grim is slightly wary of them at first, thinking they might be a ghost trying to trick him, but he eventually sticks by them, seeing them as a reliable guide.

When I was searching for data about the character, ori in the game doesn't speak so it depends on your perspective if you want ori!yuu mute or not.

Ori!yuu is mute, always talking using gesture, expression and action but since they are waking up in nrc, Crowley decided to give them a small drawing pad for them to use to speak with students as well giving them a book of sign languages.

A very gentle individual rarely gets mad as well literally no one in nrc have beef with them because why would you want to have beef with this gentle person.

But also due to this revelation many students view them as weak which annoys them a lot. But they prove their strength during an overblot battle.

Ori!yuu is able to use spirit magic I mean they are one technically, they are able to use the magic around their area towards it's purest form so they technically don't use spells.

So basically they aren't able to use spells like deuce cauldron one or create something, they are only able to use energy like magic as well as elemental ones. But due to the magic they are using is pure it's by far more powerful due to it being it's original state. Example ace is able to use wind magic blasting it knocking an opponent meanwhile ori!yuu is able to use wind magic towards it's full potential able to create a large gust of win blowing everything.

So basically meanwhile students are able to control a small portion of water using magic but ori!yuu magic allowed them to control large bodies of water like rivers and oceans able to manipulate waves.

People would consider ori!yuu to be a nature spirit having a connection with nature causing them to able manipulate the area towards it full extant.

Small glowing motes (wisps) appear around them when they are deep in thought, acting like extensions of their emotions.

Animals and spirits in Twisted Wonderland seem to trust them instinctively, and ghosts often linger around them. As well the magic around them to grow more purer as if being cleansed by their presence

Would use their grapple ability to get towards places that are complicated to go if you don't have a broom or unable to fly, would use this ability as a transportation allowing them to go to classes earlier compare the others as well grabbing stuff from a far away. They are surprisingly agile, seeming to drift through the air rather than fly traditionally.

As well if there's a lot of people hurrying to get to lunch or a large crowd that prevents them from going to class they use their grapple ability to pull themselves and walk in the walls and jump down up Infront shocking many students.

Despite being mute, Ori!Yuu takes notes in glowing script that fades after a few minutes. Some teachers (like Crewel) insist they write things down normally, while others (like Trein) don’t mind their magical method.

Since they can’t speak, they take oral exams through written answers or use magic to project their responses. Crowley had to make a special exception for them.

They don’t eat much, if at all. When they do, they seem more interested in the sensation rather than the taste. Trey is constantly trying to get them to eat more. They rarely eat due to them absorbing the magic in the area and they count it as food.

Ori!Yuu is oddly good at following the Queen’s rules… except for disappearing randomly, which drives Riddle insane.

Rook is completely obsessed with studying them, calling them a "phantom of mystique" and trying to track their movements.

Students like magical creatures like faes are able to understand what ori!yuu is and they would held communication towards the topic of magic, Lilia is very fond of them as well as malleus.

Togame Jo’s greeting kisses to you are always way too long.

The kind of affection that’s usually savored in private, instead displayed wherever, whenever, and every single time you see each other—he always takes two to three minutes just to kiss you hello, abandoning the task at hand (dozing off, attending to Choji, managing the Shishitoren) to mosey your way and pull your lips to his in something just a little too sloppy to be sweet, but a little too sweet to be… too distasteful.

Everyone’s used to it by now, even Sakura, knowing that when you arrive, there’s always a going to be a pause in action just for the sappy display of Togame drooping over you and announcing you to the crowd physically.

(What’s not readily exposed, however, and especially not in a room full of men, is that it’s not just a kiss Togame’s giving you, not just a hello that he hides behind his long bangs and your cheeks between his warm hands, but the kindest stare and sweetest little whisper, “missed you, baby,” as he wraps you up in his arms.)

Okay HELLOOO so i wanna request Thorins company with a reader who is very feminine and pretty and stuff, but simultaneously very bossy, assertive, dominant and likes telling people what to do and stuff?? If that makes sense lol

Have a good day/night!!!

HI!! This was such a fun one to write! I'm not sure if it answers the questions correctly, but I just got lost in the sauce with this one and went crazy, lol 💖😂

Balin: Balin admires your assertiveness. He finds it very fitting for you to be in command with your no-bullshit, bossy attitude. Balin would regularly turn to you for support, and he always trusted your honest opinions. He saw you as his advisor when he advises Thorin. Plus, your appearance only adds to your ability to persuade others…who could say no to those beautiful eyes. To him, you are a double threat—both in personality and looks—who can command respect and loyalty from anyone.

Dwalin: Dwalin is in love. The moment you started leading the group and demanding respect, he was captivated. Not to mention, your looks took his breath away. He loves a dominant, commanding presence who can lead a group, demand attention, and know their way around a weapon. *wink wink* Dwalin will always have your back, just as you have his. To him, you are an incredibly capable person.

Óin: Oin is glad you can handle yourself. The second you joined the group, he feared you might need constant protection, but you quickly proved him wrong. You instantly became an influential part of the group, guiding Thorin's decisions, earning the trust and respect of the group, and even outshining some of the most seasoned warriors. Your presence reassured Óin that you were vital to their mission.

Glóin: Link Oin, Gloin had doubts but was quickly shut up when he saw you fight. Your skills…your knowledge… your command. You dominated the battlefield, earning his respect. Even with blood splattered all over you, you were still gorgeous. Since then, Glóin has been ready to drop everything and listen to you, knowing you are someone worth following.

Bifur: Bifur is inspired by your assertive personality. You don't address the group broadly; instead, you call out each person, demand perfection, and engage in personal, intimate conversations. You look at each one of them as their own person. He likes that you take charge while ensuring everyone is seen and valued. You inspire him and make his heart soar whenever you call out his name with a wink.

Bofur: Bofur is lost in your beauty. He can barely focus on what you say when his mind drifts to how soft your lips look when bossing around the group. How your brow furrows when something isn't up to your standards. How you let your guard down just a little when someone compliments you. His mouth goes dry, and his knees are weak whenever he's near you, lost in admiration. Sadly, your commands are lost to him.

Bombur: Bombur is scared of you. You are one wickley, intimidating person. Your commanding presence and fiery attitude make him cautious not to cross your path. However, he can't help but steal glances, admiring how the sunlight dances on your skin.  Although he is scared, he starts to think he might have misunderstood you. Maybe there is more to you than a bossy attitude—he might even start looking up to you. 

Ori: Ori finds your personality and appearance to be a sick joke. How could someone some sweet, so tender, so feminine bark such harsh orders? He is caught between feeling like he must listen to you and listening to his brother, Dori, who seems to contradict everything you say. Ori is lost but knows that all he wants is to follow you, even if it means going against his brother's wishes.

Dori: Dori is confused and conflicted about you. He feels like he should dislike you and how you boss people around, especially his brothers. But at the same time, he can't help but admire you and how you can control situations, get his brothers to listen, and cooperate. It's a love-hate relationship for Dori, as he both resents and respects your ability to lead.

Nori: Nori grumbles whenever he hears your commanding voice directing the company. He hates being told what to do. He hates how your face will twist into a smirk when he jokes with you, and you already have a comeback set up.  He hates your soft smile, and he hates that he loves hearing you say his name. But he especially hates it when he finds himself obeying your commands without hesitation. Hate is a strong word for Nori…he just hates how you make him feel. Yet he could never fully hate you—not when you look like a perfect creation of Aulë, as beautiful as Yavanna herself.

Thorin: It's complicated. Thorin constantly feels like he is competing with you, as if you're planning to undermine him at any moment. He glares, snarls, and pushes past you, rejecting your demands. Yet, there is one thing he is a complete bumbling idiot about—your laugh. The way you laugh is dangerous. It's infectious, bold, and handsome, and it takes his breath away. Despite all the tension and jealousy, when you laugh, Thorin feels safe, and all his competitive instincts vanish.

Fíli: "Yes, mommy!" Fili is utterly devoted to you. Your commanding orders make his heart race, and your beauty leaves him blushing. He often finds himself staring, and when your eyes lock, he waits eagerly for your sass —he craves it. Fili would do anything for you. He would get on his knees for you, worship you, even die for you.

Kíli: Kili can be a bit of a brat when it comes to your authority. He laughs at the way you hold yourself, demanding respect and directing the group to do things. Pfft. He practically hates it, wanting to prove that he's your equal. But when you snap back at him and grab his shirt, he finds himself caving. "I'm not listening to you," he might say, but the moment you respond with, "I'll make you listen, Kíli," he's putty in your hands.

Bilbo: Biblo is a little ass. The first time he met you, he thought you were a perfect copy of Thorin. Both of you are beautiful, alluring yet domineering and controlling. He rolls his eyes at your bossy attitude. But over time, Bilbo starts to realize how utterly wrong he is. He sees you as protective, loving, and a material figure for the group. His initial distaste and sass fades, and he soon comes to see you as his rock. He needs that when all seems to go to hell during the journey. 

Gandalf: Gandalf trusts you completely. He knows that with you around, the group is in good hands, which is why he leaves so much in the movies. Your skills and wit speak for themselves. You're quick to take charge in high-intensity situations, yet your feminine side allows for more compassionate, loving care. Gandalf wouldn't have come to you for help on this important quest unless he trusted you to keep the dwarves in line.

Bilbo's Little Sapling (Company x Bilbo's daughter!reader)

Request by @that-teen2003: "Reader (adult) is bilbos daughter (yes biological) readers mother and bilbo had a one night stand and reader was given to bilbo. When the company arrived to bilbos they all take notice of some things not really meant for a hobbit hole, but they don’t question bilbo. Once everyone is there they bring up how bilbo will help them, but he says no because he has his baby girl to look after. The company along with Gandalf and shocked, bilbo goes on and says his little sapling cant be alone. They all here this and slightly back off, but still persistent, but image there shock when his daughter walks through the door, taller then Gandalf and bloody from the deer she hunted. She ends up joining her father one the quest, but not without a few of the dwarfs flirting with her along the way, as well as them finding out how scary a father hobbit can be when it comes to his daughter."

Notes: I really hope you like it! I intend to write a part two to fit the last bit of your request about protective dad Bilbo :)

Read Bilbo's daughter POV

The rolling hills and greens of the Shire were nothing like this company of dwarves were used to. Here the folk seemed gentle, as if hardship and horror had never tainted a single day of their lives, and only somewhat weary to strangers. Each home built gently into the green hills and rich earth of the Shire, small well-kept gardens framing their doorways. However, one hobbit hole stood out as a stark contrast to the rest.

Bag End had all the notable features of a luxurious hobbit hole. Framed with plush greens and scatterings of blooming flowers, a large front lawn, and a twine woven fence, it was a peaceful sight that any respectable hobbit would be jealous of. However, each dwarf who trekked up the small dirt stairs noted some oddities. The most notable was the large axe propped up in the entrance way. It was far to big for the average hobbit and was most certainly not of dwarven craft. No, it had to belong to a human but what it was doing there was a mystery. By all accounts the race of man did not live in the Shire, with Bree being the closest settlement.

Yet each shrugged it off, as long as Gandalf or the hobbit hadn’t invited any unwanted guests then there was no reason to think to deeply upon it. Still, one could not help but spot similar oddities throughout the home as they made themselves comfortable. The abnormally big armchair, fine china sets that could feed two hobbits at a time, and the pair of boots that Bofur had stumbled over when he’d entered. What hobbit wore shoes?

Nevertheless, they kept their opinions to themselves after finding Bilbo to be the only occupant. Feasting, drinking, belching, and merriment ensued as the dwarven band dined in a luxury they were seldom afforded. While the arrival of Thorin certainly had muted the celebrations considerably, excitement still ran high at the prospect of beginning the journey for the reclamation of their home.

The refusal of the hobbit to join their adventure had not been unexpected either. Gandalf had warned them that Bilbo may be hesitant to join them at first but would ultimately change his mind. What no one had expected was the revelation that Bilbo had a daughter, a seemingly young one at that.

“What why on earth would I join as a burglar, I’ve never stolen a thing in my life! Besides, I have my own young sapling to look after, she can hardly be left here to fend for herself, and I certainly won’t risk her on some journey to the ends of Middle Earth to fight a dragon. I’m sorry but no, I won’t do it” Bilbo had dramatically exclaimed. Murmurs of disappointed agreement had met his declaration., the road was no place for a youngling.

Bilbo had long since retired to his private room, the excitement of his uninvited visitors having worn him ragged. The company had made themselves comfortable in one of Bilbo’s sitting rooms, repurposing couches and armchairs for makeshift beds. It was as they began to bunk down for the night that the fright of their life had come.

As the hour of the gods struck a thundering sound breached the tranquility of Bag End, shaking the walls around them. Immediately each of the dwarves had sat up in alarm. It was unlikely an orc raiding party had strayed this far, even if they had somehow caught the scent of dwarf, but one could never be too sure. Through the doorway a faint light could be seen growing closer, a single set of heavy footsteps accompanying it. There was no doubt that each dwarf was cursing having stripped of sword, mace and bow at the door.

A lone looming figure suddenly appeared in the door, the soft light of the single candle it carried doing little to light up its features. Yet even though the shadows obscured the persons finer details, one thing was for certain. This figure was no hobbit, height alone gave it away. Gandalf was tall by human standards, but this figure may have given even him a run for his money. Daring to move, Dori had struck a match and begun lighting the nearest oil lamp with shaking hands.

“Who the hell are you and what are you doing in my home” the stranger shrieked, “where is my father? What have you done to him? You’d better answer me now!” By now the oil lamp had chased away some of the shadows and the intruders face could be seen. Despite the tall stature of the woman before them, indicating human or elvish parentage, obvious hobbit-like features could be picked out. There was no doubt, you had to be Bilbo’s daughter, but you were certainly no sapling.

“I…we were invited here by a wizard, Gandalf the Grey, to meet with the hobbit Bilbo Baggins. Might I…that is to say...why are you covered in blood” Ori had stuttered out, the first of the stunned troop to find his voice. “I see, and where might my father be?” the woman answered ignoring Ori’s question. “Recovering from the shock of this evening’s news and festivities in his quarters no doubt” Bofur answered, having gathered his wits. Before the woman could answer him Thorin had interrupted. “You never answered the question, who’s blood is that and who are you” he demanded, rising to his feet.

The commotion had roused both Gandalf and Bilbo both of whom appeared in a flustered hurry behind the mystery woman. Seeming unsurprised by the scene both had relaxed somewhat upon seeing her, though Bilbo still glanced wearily at the dwarves. “For gods sakes you could at least try to clean up after coming back from hunting. Honestly, anyone would think that I hadn’t raised you to be a respectable hobbit, (Y/N)!” Bilbo exclaimed throwing his hands up in annoyance, “where’d you leave it this time. It better not be on my rug, you know how old it is. A family heirloom.”

“I left it on the doorstep once I saw all of their gear” (Y/N) jabbed a finger in the company’s direction, “I didn’t know you were expecting company, I was worried when I first saw it all. I thought some ragtag band of robbers had broken into Bag End.” Bilbo took in a deep exasperated breath, rolling his eyes at his daughters antics. “And what you thought you would come in and play the hero? Honestly what were you thinking? I know you like to hunt, even though I’d rather you not, but you’re not exactly a trained soldier are you” Bilbo snapped back. The company watched in amusement, all tension having melted away once it had become certain who the mystery woman was. If the hobbit and his daughter were to actually join them there was no doubt it would at least provide a bit of entertainment.

Simmering Fingers

Summary: Headcanons for how the Dwarves + Bilbo feel about physical touch (Platonic + w/ gender neutral reader)

A/N: Y'all I'm not even a Bifur fangirl but his is SO CUTE?? omg I was kicking my feet writing that

Bilbo is just flustered in general, so if you consistently find a way to touch him, he will get unbelievably jumpy. He is expecting it, but also in disbelief that someone would want to touch him so much that it surprises him every time. The man blushes from ear to ear, especially if you're a taller individual. He would eventually come to terms with it after therapy sessions with himself and clumsily seek it out himself in the form of sweaty hand holding and awkwardly resting his hand on your shoulder when you're crouched at your bedroll or stoking the fire.

Thorin is very much a pat on the shoulder type of guy, but he isn't too touchy. He's totally fine with the bumping and shoving that comes with the rambunctious roughhousing of the Company's dwarves, but he doesn't really participate. He mostly gets bumped into when the others get careless, otherwise they try to avoid him. What he finds most strange is the gentleness of your touch. He's used to the firm and rough disposition of dwarves, but the way your fingers press so softly against his skin, as if he would shatter under any more pressure, brings him an odd sense of clarity. His mind heavy with responsibility and anxiety clouding his vision, your warm palm pressing to his neck as your fingers lay across the back of his neck pulls him from the fog and it's like he's breathing for the first time. He becomes a big fan of kissing your knuckles; it's the kingly thing to do.

Balin has become less touchy in his old age. When he was younger, he was a bit like Bofur in his jovial nature. Shouting drinking songs with his arm slung around a friend's shoulder or putting someone in a playful headlock; he definitely isn't a stranger to expressing himself through touch. However, he's old now and that man's back hurts. He said leave me the hell alone, I got arthritis and chest pains and a herniated disc, LEAVE ME BE ୧(๑•̀ᗝ•́)૭ Bro creaks when he stands up. That's why you like to give him little massages whenever you've stopped to rest. He was surprised when you first offered your help, said you noticed him wincing on the journey and might be able to fix it. The man felt brand new; you've got magic fingers, friend. It's like he's that young dwarf again, bouncing around during meals with Bofur and rubbing circles into the back of your hand in the small hours of the night as the Company winds down to sleep.

Dwalin is lowkey very touchy. He's very touchy in the usual manly sense; clapping a friend on the back, holding you in place to check for injuries, stuff like that. He likes hugging people, but that's a little too showy for his tastes. Plus, people don't often move to hug him, so he just doesn't offer. He isn't against cuddling you in bed, though. He'll never admit it out loud, but he sleeps the best whenever you're embracing.

Kili is the type to always be leaning on someone. Always nudging or poking when telling jokes, and he loves hugs. I imagine his mom cuddled him and his brother a lot, so he's used to just hugging everyone. He'd also walk around with his arm slung over somebody's shoulders all the time. His favorite thing would have to be your hand in his, though. Feeling the curve of your knuckles, the raised flesh of an old scar, the smoothness of your nails. Most of all, how soft they feel in comparison to his, calloused by years of drawing a bow.

Fili is touchy, but in a subtle way. Leaning in close while the group is talking until his shoulder bumps yours, a reassuring hand on the back when he sees that worried look on your face, or grabbing your upper arm to stop you from tripping. He's always looking out for others, and he's so engrossed in connection that he finds himself constantly touching someone. It pisses Kili off sometimes, but Fili loves to ruffle his hair when they're joking around. His favorite way to touch you is forehead kisses. Gently pushing your hair away from your forehead(I like to think that touching foreheads is an old dwarvish custom type thing used as a hello or goodbye, sort of like when Dwalin and Balin headbutt as a greeting.) He thinks it's very intimate and it makes him feel close to you.

Dori is mother. He constantly fusses over Ori, straightening his clothes, fixing his beard and tidying his buttons. Especially if they are being hosted by someone, Dori will float around and pick at everyone, making sure they are at least somewhat presentable. He's a very tidy and proper dwarf, so that is mainly where physical touch comes into play. That being said, he doesn't really participate in big shows of affection like hugs. He secretly gets really flustered; not as easily flustered as Bilbo, but he will shoo you off if you're overwhelming him (what a tsundere lmao). Most of the time it would be you initiating any type of touch but he always gets that little spark in his eye when you need your hair put up. Just by looking at him, you can tell he is something of a stylist. He absolutely loves braiding intricate designs into your hair. Sometimes you'll whine; you're feeling a little hot, a simple bun or braid will be fine. He will hear none of it. Threading his fingers through your hair, he separates the strands into sections and each time you ask, a few hours later your head is a masterpiece of delicately pinned and plaited swirls and patterns.

Nori is a sneaky little flirt. Being something of a trickster, he loves pushing the other dwarves around to annoy them. The ole tap their opposite shoulder and act like it wasn't you is the go-to in his repertoire. His touch has a similar charm when it comes to you; he'll sneak up behind you and blow on your ear just to see you jump, or squeeze at that sensitive spot on your side to get a squeak out of you. He's constantly poking at you just to tease. You'll get so worked up and flustered throughout the day. You're beyond embarrassed and frustrated by the time you lay out your bedroll, but he acts as if he didn't do anything as he grins at you.

Ori is shy, but unknowingly clingy. The Company settles for the night and gather around the fire for dinner and he is glued to someone's side. Personal space isn't a thing, but has it ever been? He's always been like this. He will sit right next to anyone, thighs and knees bumping. The same applies to when he gets frightened; he'll grab your sleeve with shaky hands like a little kid. However, when it comes to you, he is very aware of personal space. You hand brushes his and his face is beet red. You sit anywhere near as close as he would, he's just lost his place in his book. His brain just short circuits and he has to recalibrate his brain to even comprehend that you're speaking to him. Whenever he gets more comfortable though, he would love resting his head on your shoulder (or vice versa).

Oin is the consent KING! Since he's a practiced healer, he's very aware of how some people do not appreciate being touched. He tends to keep his hands to himself unless he's doing some medical work. Even then, he is very steady and methodical to maintain an air of professionalism and avoid making anyone uncomfortable. Since he's hard of hearing, he tends to lean into people when they're talking which sometimes results in some shoulder bumping, small things like that. That being said, he would have to warm up to more intimate touching. Of course, he wouldn't mind you touching him at all. He appreciates a squeeze of the shoulder in passing, but he is not about that PDA action. However, he is really gentle in private. Soft caresses, cradling your head as he strokes your hair.

Glóin is gruff, but not nearly as nonchalant as Dwalin. You try to hug him, the guy is grumbling and begrudgingly pats your back as if his pride will be crushed by a simple embrace. Literal drama queen. It's like the big awkward man energy; he's keeping up this façade of a strong, stoic type but he constantly breaks character. He'll be cracking up at a joke, clapping one of the boys on the back, or awkwardly pat their shoulder after they kill more orcs than him in a fight. Peak dad energy, actually. He's amazing with kids, obviously. They'll climb all over him, tugging at his beard but he tolerates it and doesn't get frustrated. He absolutely gets flustered when you touch him, but he tries to play it off like he isn't embarrassed. He doesn't have a problem touching you, though. His hand is on the small of your back whenever he can get it there, and he loves to cradle your cheek in one hand just to look at you. (Also this mf is absolutely little spoon and you cannot tell me otherwise) OMG he would also carry around a little braid of your hair in a pendant or something and Gimli always thought it was a powerful symbol of connection because of dwarvish customs related to hair yatta yatta and that's why he asked Galadriel for her hair, since it was a prominent symbol to him growing up or something eurrghh ｡°(°.◜ᯅ◝°)°｡

Bifur touches everyone a lot since he can't verbalize everything effectively. It's a lot of little nudges to get someone's attention, gently moving someone to get past, or a pat and nod to say hello. He adapted to using body language to convey his thoughts, so he's comfortable touching others but is also conscious of how they feel about being touched. He's almost like a pillar of the Company; he's looming close by to offer a comforting presence, or a quiet shoulder to lean on. He tries to have constant contact with you, whether that be holding hands or just sitting with your shoulders smushed together. His touch feels quiet yet overwhelming. It's rough but gentle, warm but sends a chill up your spine. He's very romantic in how he traces lovely words onto your skin, whispering secrets to you without ever saying a word.

Bofur is so affectionate. He loves his fellow dwarves without shame and will show it in any number of ways no matter how many people stare. This dude ABSOLUTELY boops noses. Just imagine Dwalin being super serious about something just for Bofur to go *boop* and promptly sprint away Jack Sparrow style as Dwalin Michael Myers walks after him while the rest of the Company cackles. Somebody is cold, Bofur's got two arms for ya. Somebody is tired, Bofur's got a shoulder ripe for the sleepin on. And he will absolutely put his head on top of theirs. If he isn't hugging on someone else, he's on you. He's always happy to wrap his arms around you and do anything aforementioned, but he does get a little nervous sometimes in more intimate settings. He's all charm when he's tucking your hair behind your ear with a wink or pressing his hand to the back of your neck to bring your head closer for a forehead kiss, but he melts whenever you lay your head on his chest and play with his hands. He gets a tickly feeling and finds himself rubbing his neck as a sheepish chuckle falls from his lips.

and last but not least

Bombur is the hug master. You are absolutely encapsulated in a Bombur hug, I don't care how big you are. He's not particularly touchy but hugs? He's there. He gives little pats of appreciation on the back or the knee, not much besides that. With you, however, THE CUDDLE MONSTER. You will never sleep alone again. Not that you would complain, he just strokes your back and in minutes you are dead asleep. It's impossible to stay awake when he's so warm and soft. He is unbelievably warm, so you wouldn't even know it was winter in his arms. He doesn't get flustered when others touch him, but a kiss on the cheek will have him red as rubies on Mars.

I have only asked for one matchup in the past like 8 years of imagine blog requesting but I figured hey, why not? I've been reading your blog nonstop for like 2 weeks, lol! Lets see, I'm about 5ft 4 with a bob of ringlets and a round, even, bespectacled face. I'm pretty curvy and perhaps on the heavier side but I've got a lot more strength to my frame than most give me credit for! In the day to day folks look at me and think I'm a 100% cerebral kind of person and for the most part they'd be right, at least when I was younger. I used to be the ultimate shut-in for the simple fact that I suffer from a family curse on my father's side- when we aren't learning we feel like we're *fucking dieing*(i didn't make tht up it's the family running joke!). These days I'm much more outgoing; I play DnD in 2 groups, have tons of online friends I talk to regularly, I've got a routine of 'sister night's where me and my sister paint together, I sing in a chorus, and I've got study sessions with my mentor going too- so I'm kinda a former-antisocial-dork-turned-deliberate-part-of-their-communities kinda chick. I feel like if i was dropped in middle earth I'd wanna try and build a printing press, my first degree was in graphic design so I know a ton about all the different kinds, I'd love to share! After all, what's the point of learning if you don't use your information to *help* people? Guess I'd be a scribe if I was born there tho. I skew towards liking the hobbit characters more than LOTR, but I'm up for anyone that's in both, too. Congrats on 300, you deserve it!!

Thank you so much for your support and heck yeah, *you* deserve the treat of a matchup too 😘 I’m so glad you said that about the hobbit characters because I definitely had someone in mind for you…

Dear Ori!

Ori finds out someone is causing quite a stir with a new invention, so of course he has to see what all the fuss is about! Something about a revolution amongst his world of scribes happening right at the foot of his home down in Dale. Making his way down to the study named, he musters up the courage to knock on the door. Coming to call unannounced isn't exactly the most polite behavior, he knows, but then again this inventor must be having a lot of that these days. He isn't expecting to see a cute young woman open the door, though, and his first thought is one hoping you aren't just the inventor's wife opening the door for them.

You are not. The moment Ori shyly greets you, asking if it's true what the scribes are saying about an exciting new device, your eyes light up and you usher him in. Inside your home is a bit messy, but the comforting sort of messy where charming china sits out atop tables, game boards at their sides, papers are strewn about with notes and diagrams and drawings Ori wishes he could see better. A potted plant sits in one corner with an unfinished sketch of its likeness on the adjacent shelf. A fire is fighting its best to stay lit behind an elaborately styled metal gate, no doubt to keep it that much further from all the paper. All in all, Ori thinks to himself that this is somewhere he could live. As you begin taking him across the room to a door, you animatedly discuss your many trials and errors before you reveal your masterpiece. A great structure with some sort of metal rod and a bunch of blocks? Printing press, you call it. You had blocks for each letter, the rod pulled down to press the ink down... "Now we can save some time if we need a lot of copies! What do you think?" You stood there with your head expectantly tilted, hands clasped in front of you. "They say Thorin or Bard might like something like this for decrees, but as a fellow scribe do you see a future with this?"

Gaping at your smarts and flushing at the faint flutter of your eyelashes, Ori nods. "This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen, and I fought a dragon." "You...fought a dragon?" It is your turn to gape as you peer at the dwarf with new interest. "Threatened to show him dwarvish iron where the sun don't shine," he replied with a proud smile, arms crossed, "but you know, in the end Mr. Bard got 'im. We all showed him what for, though! This tops that by a long shot, though- how'd you think of this?" Kettle on first, hours of discussion later. Soon it was near nightfall and Ori was apologizing profusely and you were waving it off, asking him for promise of a return with the sketches he mentioned.

A whole new page of sketches gets dedicated to figures with bobs of lovely curls, gorgeous curves that have Ori blushing, smiles upon a round, cheery face and spectacles never fully betraying the eyes' secrets. Whole hours of Ori’s day get dedicated to carving blocks for your press and trying them out with you and feeling his heart flip at the way you take his hands and leap in celebration. He can listen to you talk, whether it’s explaining your invention process or the instructions of the game you’re teaching him or even simply sharing some random animal facts from the latest book you picked up, all day, he thinks. And then one day as he’s leaving you press a kiss to his cheek and that’s it.

Flowers and a new book are thrust into your hand the moment you open the door, Ori standing before you telling you how much he likes you and can’t stop thinking about you and you positively must interrupt him to tell him he’s been like home to you or else he’ll keep going, the poor dear. He wants to take you out that day, walk you around proudly and savor the feeling of your hand in his as he shows you off.
