He smirked at his obviously intoxicated husband, as he placed the quill back on the desk, and gave his beloved his full attention. “Aye, ghivashel? Now, I would not be averse to that idea, I would make love you to anywhere, and everywhere; but, might I ask what has brought this on?”

Legolas blinked and looked at the small person before him, frowning a little before putting the pieces together. A smile appearing on his lips as he figured out who this person had to be. “I am, Legolas, nice to meet you. You must be the famed hobbit that broke out the dwarves a while ago, I fear I do not recall your name though. I have been quite busy.”

“Done what?” Frerin rolled his eyes, shutting the door to a room filled with infuriated dwarves of very high status. “I don’t want Erebor to be a kingdom. They should know the truth. The mountain will be a safe haven for all and it will be run by council.”

“ It has been… ” She pauses, thinking through the amount of time it’s been since she left Dale. “ Several months, ” the princess decides after a moment’s thought and deciding not to fully count out the days. She is feeling the homesickness of so much time without her family, if she fully allows herself to acknowledge it, despite trying not to, so that she can enjoy seeing so much of the world that she’d never seen before, but she misses her family. She misses being home, whenever she allows herself to remember how long it’s been since she last saw her father and siblings. The small, cozy feeling of Bilbo’s Hobbit hole helps a little, as does the steaming cup of tea in her hands. “ I had no idea the world was this big, ” she admits, not feeling as foolish or naïve admitting it to Bilbo as she would have felt to others. “ I’ve seen maps, of course, studied maps, but I’d never really traveled beyond Mirkwood or Erebor before now. ”

“Yes, my love? I am here. Are you all right? You were tossing and turning? Was it another strange dreams?” Thorin asked, as he woke from his sleep when he heard his husband calling out to him. He reached out and immediately wrapped his arms around Bilbo.
