    Summary

    Come, dear reader, and follow us to the world of clockwork and dark secrets; where men of brass walk alongside men of flesh, and none but God knows which heart is filled with true humanity.

    In this particular tale our hero arrives in Montreuil-sous-Mer, becomes the Grand Ingeniare, and earns the love of all men and women – with the exception of one cold-eyed Inspector.

    [Valjean, Javert and a steampunk dystopia]

    Summary

    A comic adaptation of the Hobbit.

    Bilbo has always struggled to tell the "true" story of what happened on his journey to the Lonely Mountain. Now, he's trying to retell his adventures as a bright happy children's book for his young nephew Frodo.

    But is he telling the full truth? And are there things that he's leaving out?

    (I'm taking the interpretation that Tolkien's 'translation; of the Red Book of Westmarch was only a translation of one of various copies made of the book throughout the centuries, and that I am 'translating' a different version of the text with the help of different primary sources! Which is why our descriptions of the events may differ.)

    Summary

    Jean Valjean and his daughter Cosette walk into a bar… a gay bar.

    "One does not endure nineteen years in Toulon, chained and broken, then pass another decade veiled beneath false names and borrowed lives, and suddenly decide to walk into a bar just because.

    No, it was not by his own will that he ventured forth. He was led, almost despite himself, by the hand of a daughter whose enthusiasm was a torrent, unchecked and irrepressible. Her joy was a force of nature, a light to which his own resolve bent unwillingly."

    Summary

    Written in response to a prompt by thotinshield on Tumblr:

    "my brain is filled with au where thorin is considered unattractive by dwarven standards, bilbo thinks hes handsome, and is pining after him, but thorin is in the classic situation of having to get married and dealing with lots of suitors and theres a bit in there about bilbo hearing some of the dwarrowdams gossiping about how thorin is "ugly" and bilbo being like WHAT"

    Erebor needs a queen, and Thorin is set to marry a dwarrowdam to be his consort. No matter how much it breaks his heart, Bilbo takes it upon himself to ensure Thorin only receives the best and decides to scope out the candidates. Everything goes well, and he finds one that looks promising, until he uncovers a rather disturbing fact about the crop of potential consorts.

    Summary

    “Why don’t you wear your hair braided up? Like the others?”

    Thorin stopped, holding his second braid in place as he reached for a silver hair clasp. His blue eyes found Bilbo’s, and it felt distinctly like when Bilbo had stumbled upon a buck on one of his walks.

    --

    Bilbo wakes up to see Thorin's morning hair care.
