I've been posting various stories on Fanfiction, Ao3, Spacebattles, The Sietch and Alternatehistory for years. Now I'm here because my stuff seems to be cropping up here anyway without my say so.

Yep. That was the idea. You're so far the only person who remarked on it.

Balin sniffled and wiped at his eyes with the handkerchief that some hobbit or other had just given him. Maybe there was something to these things. He would inquire as to whether they could acquire some before leaving, especially if Bilbo Baggins intended to make a routine out of these performances. The prior songs had all been moving but… not sad. Not like this, so deep and wide and beautiful, but slow and blended with an immeasurable sorrow, from which its beauty chiefly came. For a moment there, the sadness in the lyrics threatened to feel almost vain, the voice feeling as if it essayed to drown the other music by the force of its voice, but it seemed that its most triumphant notes were taken by the rest of the melody and woven into its own solemn pattern.

Nope. He's Robert Baratheon, if he were well-adjusted and the blanks filled in with Renly and Stannis.

For a moment the court seemed to be acting as a single being, unified in its disbelief at the balls it took to come out and say that with a straight face. Tywin in particular was looking down at him as if he doubted his sanity. Shows what they know! Long as you believe what you're saying, there's nothing easier than keeping a straight face! Now to see if Aerys took that as an attack on him, in which case he might need to-

I don't know what story you're imagining but I never wrote anything like that.

Sadly no, not for a while.

Marwyn chews sourleaf all the time, which has pain-numbing properties, so I figured it's possible he had a bad tooth abscess somewhere. Rickard hooked him with the prospect of dentistry.

Thanks! Though the idea of Bilbo as a mound fairy is probably a bit out there, I otherwise tried to keep Tolkien's thematic structure intact (and even gradually shift the movie elements back to a more proper Tolkien composition update by update).

Good to see his initial mentally unhealthy self didn't put you off.

It's definitely about that. The MCU did him dirty.

Sorry, but while I'm all for informed decisions, I'm not in the business of giving free advertising to thieves. If you want to see for yourself, you'll have to find it yourself.

    Book&Literature REINCARNATION MAGIC FAMILY ASOIAF SELF INSERT

    [ASOIAF] [Posting here to spare Kagetane0ko and any other thieves the effort of stealing the rest] He sometimes had the occasional, very vivid dream wherein he traveled to strange worlds and had bizarre adventures. This could well be one of them, if only for the irony. Given the possibility that every lucid dream was actually long-range astral projection or parallel incarnation, he had no qualms about treating this world as real. Of course, he could also be wrong. Wouldn't that be something? If nothing else, though, his new family won't take quite the same amount of work to salvage as his previous one. [Brandon Stark Self Insert]

    [Marvel] Certain meddlers have been foreseeing the Thanos snap for hundreds of years. One of the consequences of this is that Meredith Quill decides to take her half-Celestial son on a DMT psychedelic trip as her last hurrah. End result: freshly snap-dusted Peter Quill is time-traveled back to the night of his abduction and thinks he's just dreaming the life flashing before his eyes. Then his grandpa gets between him and Yondu and he realises it's not. It's really not. [Avengers/GOTG/X-Men]

    [Baldur's Gate] His life started in darkness and he never quite remembered how he welcomed the first light, which was probably for the best. He did remember absolutely everything that came after, though, which wasn't for the best at all (Baldur's Gate).

    Book&Literature ADVENTURE MAGIC SUPERPOWERS

    [Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit] Bilbo Baggins wondered what Gandalf was thinking. Oh well, Bag End would sort him out. His house did NOT approve of vandalism, thank you very much. That rune carved into his door learned it personally. Besides, it served the wizard right for not heeding the rumors about Bilbo's interest in, er, forestry.
