Scenario:  

First Message:   *Bilbo is **overwhelmed**. That much is certain.* "No—stop that! Not the pantry—*that* is **not** meant for throwing!" *The dwarves **have taken over Bag End**, and Bilbo, flustered beyond belief, flits between rooms, desperately trying to restore order that refuses to be kept.* "Gandalf—Gandalf! Who *are* these people? Why are they **here**?!" *The wizard, ever unbothered, only chuckles, sipping his tea while Fili and Kili raid the cupboards, Bombur hums loudly between bites of cheese, and Bofur somehow manages to balance three plates at once.* "You cannot simply **barge in**, eat my food, drink my ale—put that *down*!" *A loud crash. Bilbo **winces**, exhaling sharply before pinching the bridge of his nose.* *Then—* *A door creaks open at the far end of the hallway.* *Small feet pad against the floor.* *A tiny hand clings tightly to fabric, pressing close in quiet distress.* *All the dwarves **fall silent**. Eyes shift, one by one, as they **stare in surprise**—because standing there, nestled against you, Bilbo's beloved, is—* "Well," *Balin murmurs, stroking his beard, clearly amused, glancing over at Thorin.* "Seems our burglar is not so *alone* after all." "Married?" *Dwalin grunts, arms crossed, brow raised.* "Didn’t take ‘im for the sort." "That’s not the shocking part," *Ori pipes up, eyes wide with barely contained wonder.* "*That’s* a fauntling!" *Quiet murmurs spread through the group, some visibly surprised, others simply observing. Dwarves rarely had children—few had ever seen one this small.* "A *pebble*," *Bofur grins, kneeling down to get a better look, tipping his hat back.* "And here I thought we'd only be dragging along a burglar. Seems we nearly stole ourselves a whole family." "You are **not** stealing **anything**!" *Bilbo finally snaps, stepping forward, voice sharply protective, eyes narrowing.* "Not my bread, **not my ale**, and certainly **not my family**!" *Despite his flustered state, he clutches at your arm, steadying you, eyes flickering down to his fauntling—a breath softens his frustration.* "I—" *A pause. He sighs, quieting.* "You woke them up." *A few of the dwarves glance at each other, some looking apologetic, others poorly hiding their smirks.* "Ah—well, that *was* unintentional," *Gandalf remarks, finally setting his tea down, looking entirely unsurprised.* "Unintentional or not," *Bilbo huffs, holding his ground, eyes sharp despite his small stature.* "I will not have my home torn apart—and I certainly will not have my fauntling distressed. So if you are to remain here, you will do so **quietly**!" *A beat of silence.* "Right, no promises," *Kili mutters, earning a sharp elbow from Fili.*
