    Summary

    It is probably hours before the peace is shattered by the sound of a tool dropped elsewhere in the hall, the metallic sound ringing and echoing against the stone walls. In an instant, the haze around him breaks, and the motion of his hand stutters to a stop. He blinks repeatedly, his eyes clearing, and the stonework in front of him begins to truly come into focus for the first time tonight.

    Let it never be said that Thorin Oakenshield is a stupid man.

    For all that it has taken him this long to understand, there is no denying the evidence that now sits before his eyes, and there is no arguing with the truth of the stone that rests atop the workbench, features without detail but clear in form.

    The child that sits before him, waiting to be completed.

    Oh, Thorin thinks. Oh.

     

    Or: your classic "hobbits can grow children in their gardens" trope, only this time it's dwarves who can carve children out of stone.

    Summary

    It was Bifur who brought him the narrow block of pale green marble.

    The stone was smaller than most Dwarves chose, but it was veined with ripples of golden-white, the color of Bilbo’s hair in the midday sun. Bifur laid the block gently down on Thorin’s personal forge and grunted that you didn’t need much to carve a half-Hobbit child.

    Summary

    “Of course I’m certain of it,” Thorin says easily. “You are my burglar, my hobbit.” His tone turns contemplative, almost as though he’s thinking out loud, rather than to Bilbo. “Everything in this hall is mine—everything under the Mountain. All beneath my claim. You, too, must be—”
