#anyway i thought the people shipping bilbo and thorin were out of left field but like #did you notice how they did bilbo and thorin right alongside kili and tauriel? you cannot look me in the eye after that and say that bilbo #wasnt at least a LITTLE in love with him. in the way you love a close friend. or someone you look up to and admire #bc bilbo followed that man into battle. several times. and i think that devotion is something akin to love #also i am being unwell abt golem and frodo being character foils #esp considering we’re planning a lotr marathon at some point #and can i just say. i do appreciate that in absence of gandalf bilbo is ALWAYS the voice of reason #mans is so unwilling to ignore his own moral compass for the majority of the series. (which is what also makes his attitude when it comes to #the ring that much more jarring) #anyway yeah so normal abt them :] <-lying #sev rambles #also i was trying so hard not to rant abt billionares and dragons being functionally the same thing. i only did once. considering one of my #moms friends were there you should be so proud of me for my self restraint
