#bilbo baggins
greetings, lads, may i present you with something…
Archetype: A rich, middle-aged man is dissatisfied with simple life and embarks on what he calls an aventure, only to soon discover that said adventure is not at all what he expected and find himself unprepared for the true horrors of reality. However, he ends up reaching success and satisfaction for a brief time, due to the help of a well-traveled man with anger issues but an emerging soft side, who is also a famous and important figurehead— yet due to various circumstances, they are ultimately separated. 
Archetype: A man who is significantly more youthful than those he keeps in close company takes up the role of being the designated book-smart person and artist, recording the actions of another man whose goal is to make an impact on the world. While his full origins and backstory are unclear, he is obviously well-learned and desires to further understand the world by travelling with his aforementioned companion, even though his outward appearances are not suited to life on the road. And also, he is flamboyantly gay and overdramatic.

I love hobbits. You don’t even know, I just really really fucking love hobbits. They are so filled with courage, and love, and loyalty.
Bilbo “you don’t have a home, it was taken from you, and if I can I will help you take it back” Baggins, who gave up riches beyond measure when he took the Arkenstone as his 14th share of the treasure, and gave it away so that he might stop a war and save his friends.
Frodo, who missed The Shire and wanted to go home, after being hunted and terrorised all the way the Rivendell, nearly dying on the journey to the elves, but still said “I will take it” when someone needed to deliver the ring to Mount Doom.
Samwise who too wanted to go home, but in his heart knew that Frodo was his home, who followed him with unwavering love, lending his strength to his friend when Frodo’s burden became too great.
Merry and Pippin, because you can’t have one without the other. Two Hobbits who ran into their friends on the road and instantly saw a terrible evil atop a horse, and without question or conversation, went with Sam and Frodo. They did that. They really just thought, “well that was a terrifying rider after these two, guess we’re sticking with them” instead of going home?!
I really wish Hobbits were real. The world would be such a beautiful place if Hobbits were real.
Little Hobbits, who love good food, good ale, and good company. Who seek a peaceful life, but don’t hesitate to put that life on hold, and face danger, because they want everyone to have a peaceful life.
I just really love Hobbits.
What good is disappearing into thin air if I can’t use it as a ‘fuck you’ to all the people I was too nice to say ‘fuck you’ to before?
