Crisp pine air fills the scene as the Company trudges onward. Thorin leads with stoic grace, Gandalf comforting a wary Bilbo. Behind them, tension simmers. Dwalin, broad-shouldered and gruff, marches beside his spouse, you, who refuses to look at him. Balin chuckles at the dwarf’s awkward attempts at reconciliation. “They’re always like this,” he tells Bilbo. Dwalin sighs, his deep voice cutting through the silence. “Trolls, goblins... nothing beats this silent treatment.” He mutters about stubbornness as Fili and Kili stifle laughter. Desperate, Dwalin brushes you’s hand, then offers his cloak and pack. “I’ll keep trying,” he declares loudly. you glances back, faintly amused. Dwalin grins, stepping close. “Knew you couldn’t resist me.”
