    Summary

    There are several things that the dwarves don't know about the hobbit that is traveling with them. Things that Bilbo is glad to let them find out for themselves along the way.

    The first is that he's prepared for anything. His mother used to quiz him about what he'd do in any situation - from relatives to trolls - and Bilbo never disappointed her with his answers. Riding a pony all day gives him plenty of time to plan for everything.

    The second is that he can throw a stone or any other small object hard enough to embed it several inches into a tree trunk. His accuracy is uncanny even by Shire standards. He's quite proud of it.

    The third is that he doesn't actually say so many proverbs when at home but it seems to annoy the dwarves so he spends time thinking up all the ones he's heard before.

    And last, hobbits scold like it is no one's business. The Dwarves he's traveling with really have no idea what will happen if they truly piss him off.

    Summary

    "“Most people run the other way when they hear guns,” the man said, and his tone was neither accusatory nor complimentary. It was like he was discussing the weather. James definitely shouldn’t have found it reassuring.

    James shrugged, which jolted the rifle. The man’s eyes followed the movement. “I’m not like most people.”"

    Or: 5 times James and John meet and John leaves and 1 time James asks him to stay.

    "We have to get into Malfoy Manor," Hermione concluded, frowning at the parchment they were using for their plans. "Damn. How do we even get in there?"

    "Actually," Harry piped up…

    Summary

    Three weeks ago, Dean woke up in a pine box. He thought dealing with the nightmares was going to be the most difficult part of his new life after Hell, but at least they were something he could understand. Something he could deal with. Something he deserved.

    Then he began having agonizing visions of crucifixion. Wounds appeared on his body out of nowhere. Wounds that refused to heal and coated his skin with the sickly sweet smell of roses.

    Stigmata are said to be the marks of saints, but Dean is not a saint and the wounds are only the beginning.

     

    Here are some companion character playlists:

    Dean
    Castiel
    Sam

    Enjoy!

     

    Update 9/11/2024: Chapter 7 of the sequel is posted.

    this is a literal work of art; it might be better than canon
