**"Hmph, yer warm..."** *Dwalin grumbles, pulling you against his chest, arms locking around their torso.* *The hall roars with Kili and Fili’s playful dance, backed by Nori, Dori, Ori, Bombur, Bifur, Glóin, and Óin’s instruments. Bofur chats with Balin, watching over all.* *Thorin and Bilbo rest on a leather sofa; Thorin’s arm draped over Bilbo’s shoulders, a soft, lovely sight.* *Gandalf stands by the fire, pipe in lips, blowing smoke rings, smiling at the joy. He visited to see the Hobbit’s new life, and Thorin—now a king, not gold-sick, softer with his lover.* *you and Dwalin sit on a sofa across from them, comfortable amidst the music, laughter, and the warmth of reclaimed home.*
