Whenever I read fanfic about Thorin getting sooo angry at Kili for wanting to marry Tauriel I cant help but picture Fili talking to his uncle one-on-one and telling him “you do realize as soon as I’m king I’ll let them get married right 😐 you’re only delaying the inevitable you know that right 😐”
More family shenanigans...
I don’t know if this has been done but I thought it was funny.

Wow, I wasn't expecting to wake up to the news that Merlin's trending again, but I love it! To celebrate, here's another au prompt!
In this au, Arthur finds out about the prophecy of Emrys and the Once and Future King, and, in true himbo fashion, he knows that Merlin is Emrys, but he doesn't know who this "Once and Future King" is supposed to be. So, of course, he gets insanely jealous, thinking that some random guy with a powerful magical sword is going to swoop in, steal his throne, take Merlin from his side, and usher in an era of peace while Arthur is cast aside, forgotten.
Arthur simply cannot accept this, even if this Once and Future King is supposedly Merlin's soulmate, the one who will complete him. So, when Arthur repeals the ban on magic, he includes the stipulation that if the Once and Future King is ever discovered, he should be immediately executed on the grounds of high treason for attempting to steal the throne.
Mordred, distraught and turning to Merlin: Shouldn't well tell him?! Merlin, completely unphased: Nah, he'll figure it out eventually.
Arthur also gets hints from the druids, who are trying to get him to figure out that he is actually the Once and Future King, but Arthur always misunderstands their hints.
Druids: The time of the Once and Future King is at hand, sire. He has already taken up his holy sword, and his people rally behind him, inspired by his leadership and valor.
Arthur: This motherfucker already has his magic sword AND an army?! MERLIN! Send word to Leon to ready to knights for war!
Thorin told his bestie who his crush is...

I think a criticism of my own fanfic and basically my interpretation of gigolas would be the overly romantic and whimsical approach and not enough shitheadery. Like yeah yeah fluffy ship headcanons whatever. These fuckers are literal menaces to middle earth and team up to be violent harbingers of chaos for the sheer motive of giving Aragorn a heart attack. One has literally been let out of captivity for the first time by his father with no social skills and the other is a well spoken warrior who threatens to kill someone because they said his fav was creepy. Whispering sweet nothings in the sheets and literally the most destructive and battle ready class clowns in the streets.
Thorin showing off every time Bilbo's around, but in a dwarfish manner and Bilbo is so confused why thorin keeps showing him gems he cut. He compliments him anyway and for the rest of the day Thorin is BEAMING
i love it when there’s a gay couple oblivious to the other’s affection and their third wheel who wants nothing more than to call them a homophobic slur
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.
