Again, such a vivid glimpse at the natures of both Bilbo and Thorin.

Author Reply: Thank you so much for reviewing here as well. I really enjoyed expanding on this scene.

Ooooo, I love this gift of sight that Thorin has. Very interesting! And it's such fun to think of Bilbo as so young and just starting his adventures. Great beginning!

Author Reply: Thank you! I'm only writing small stories now, but they bring me just as much joy as the longer ones.

Oh, I like this glimpse of Bilbo through Thorin's true seeing. True seeing, indeed, truer than even Bilbo knows! (Though obviously Gandalf knows...) (Is 'true seeing' canon or fanon? It's been awhile since I read up on the dwarves.)

Author Reply: Thank you. The 'true seeing' as a gift of the royal line of Durin is my own invention.

Whoohoo! Another story from you! This promises to be very interesting. Love the descriptions in this chapter and Thorin's thought process as he rethinks Bilbo's worth. Looking forward to more, Shirebound. Getting to read another tale from you is definitely the highlight of my week so far.

Author Reply: What a lovely compliment! Your kind comments really made my day, and I'm so pleased you like this premise. I enjoy getting into the heads of these characters.

Very nice! That must have been one of the first times when Bilbo's Tookish side suddenly took hold of him. It is good that Thorin was aware of it, too.

Author Reply: Thank you! I love seeing hobbits through the eyes of other races. I'm looking forward to writing additional scenes.
