I'm iffy about soulmate stuff but I liked the idea of dwarrow having visions of their Ones. It might be what they do, it might be where they live, might be something they love but basically they only get a snapshot of their One so dwarrow can continue with their lives WHILE still looking for their other half. However, for the Line Of Durin, when they experience their vision they actually see the face of their One. Bewitched by the face of their love, this sends them into a deep sleep and when they wake up, they won't do anything BUT gush about their One. Like its technically harmless but every single thing they do in this state is ALWAYS with their beloved in mind. Dubbed lovesickness, there is usually a special order of doctors called Heartseekers who have to help their royals find their Ones in order to clear the loving haze.

For Thorin, he's considered one of the many dwarves who'll never really recieve a vision of his One and people are fine with this till he passes out during an important event. The kingdom are stoked to know that he didnt die from a stroke, however a new problem soon makes itself known. The Prince's One that he's gushing about doesn't seem to be from Erebor. Not only that, but the Prince suddenly goes missing, on the notice that he's left to declare his love. With Thror and Thrain close to yanking out their own beards, Dis and Frerin go out on a wild goose chase to find their lovestruck brother with only the statues and paintings he made of "the love of his life" to go off of.

Below is just Thorin looking at his 52nd statue of Bilbo while talking about how pretty he is (to a very concerned Balin)

silly little undertale au thing

I did have the idea that in this AU Bilbo left Erebor after his banishment to take care of the Shire after it's near destruction and throughout the years Fili and Kili consistently send a little raven named Finn to try invite him back (unfortunately he's either too busy or grappling with his complicated feelings over going back)
