Man I’m tired and I’m sorry for bringing up some less pleasing stuff on here but I feel the need to talk about this. So recently I’ve noticed an increase in people using chat gpt to write fanfiction, even some in the hobbit fandom. Ai “art” has been a pretty difficult topic for me for a while, yet I want to talk about it more and bring people to understand the consequences of it. But I think it’s also important to bring awareness to the other parties suffering from the usage of ai. I chose Bilbo for this cause I think it’s funny how these ai “writers” forget that Bilbo is an actual writer, so to use a tool that steals from other creators would be the worst insult to his craft
So here’s what Bilbo says:
And here’s what I say, tag your favourite writers to show them support!!

Thorin told his bestie who his crush is...
Based on this post
I have been saving this since last year. Happy Earth Day everyone.
Them....
He pressed his hand to the earth to steady himself… but even that felt too alive.
There was nothing left to anchor him.
And still... he changed.
Thorin Oakenshield is no stranger to madness. He has seen it, heard it, lived it. Except now... now he feels it stirring within the stone, breathing, waiting in the corners of his mind. But he resists – for the sake of his people, his honor, and most of all, for his burglar. In the shadow of a mountain – and something darker still – Thorin tries to keep the sickness at bay, desperate to protect the hobbit who has become something far more precious than he ever intended. But the gold calls to him, the mountain whispers, and Bilbo… Bilbo shines too brightly to ignore.
Bilbo, ever brave and quietly brilliant, senses the change. He sees the cracks in Thorin's armor – the strain, the heat behind his gaze, the way his voice wavers, how his hands grip, hold, take. Still, Bilbo stays. He hopes.
But some reflections cannot be outrun.

I need Kili to be considered kind of a weirdo by dwarven standards - bro doesn't have any beads or braids in his hair, bro uses a bow and arrow as his favoured weapon, bros got a shit beard even for someone his age, bros got the hots for elves - he's just a weird little guy but he's very loved regardless and Fili is very protective of him cos yeah he's sort of strange but that's my little brother I'll kill you if you start talking shit
