ok so i was mulling over this tired argument of “thorin doesn’t bring anything to the relationship” (which is probably coming from the fact that bilbo is indeed the only self-sufficient and non-problematic member of the company, that he proves to be much more capable than expected in dealing with other people’s problems and doesn’t seem to have any problems himself, but seeing as thorin employed him it was kinda obvious that he would offer services and not expect help in return, what with being promised the 14th share of the treasure (which he also didn’t need but still))

and i got thinking about how bilbo actually ran off to take part in the quest that would most likely end up with him being incinerated (here on a side note we could say that HIS was the original suicide mission), which can only indicate how miserable he had actually been in his old world and how happy being needed and having someone to fuss over made him;

and also about the fact that he ran so quickly not because he enjoyed dwalin eating his biscuits or balin accepting his apologies, kili wiping his feet on his furniture or fili dumping a pile of swords in his hands, ori holding on to his tomatoes or bombur ridding him of cheese (although maybe the plate-throwing camaraderie had

charmed

him somewhat)

he changed his mind after hearing thorin and the others sing, feeling his longing, catching a spark of his flame, seeing very uncomfortable dreams. in the broadest sense, cheesy though as it might sound, thorin made bilbo feel alive and wanting for the first time in years, and then i thought “manic pixie dream dwarf” and i haven’t been able to stop laughing ever since

Thorin as a manic pixie dream dwarf just made my friggin’ day
