Lars is enough. Them, together, is enough.

Thorin had to choose a consort. He knew that, and he also knew he didn't want a consort that was not the Hobbit. Bilbo in turn, knew he was more than a little envious of those that got the chance to present themselves in front of the Dwarven King, and if he was being really honest, he really wanted to take on the spot himself. It seems only meddling Dwarves can solve this.

The first time the King's guts stirred when he looked at the young man he had been completely baffled and had fallen silent in the middle of a conversation. Afterwards, he declared himself a fool.

When Kon's antics result in Rukia no longer being able to sleep in the closet, she is given several options, of which sleeping on the floor eventually seems like the best choice. That said, she prefers the unspoken option of crawling into Ichigo's bed instead. Bit of fluff, IchiRuki.

Ichigo didn't really think Rukia spoke the truth when she had told him that Byakuya liked bananas. But when asking the noble to have a smoothie with him, it only takes the mentioning of banana smoothies to cause the initial reluctant noble to change his mind, and come with him. ByaIchi. Oneshot.

The teen's hand continued to caress the pale skin, fingers trailing up Byakuya's sides. The noble suddenly twitched though, moving away from the hand.
