Summary
When Thorin's rule as King Under The Mountain comes into question 13 years after Erebor was reclaimed, Fíli alongside Ori step up to assure their restless kinfolk of the future of their reclaimed kingdom by offering to marry and produce the next in line to the Throne Under The Mountain.
While having known each other since they were pebbles, both Fíli and Ori will realize they have a lot to learn if their nascent friendship and arranged marriage have a chance of making it at all.

Summary
He had felt the burn of warg teeth in his skin, the bite of metal reforged slicing through tendons, the feel of fire lapping at every inch of his body. He had felt fear. He had felt sorrow, woe, grief upon grief. Mirrored anger and fear bursting within him. A lifetime of worries numbered only by streaks of grey and lines like cracks in stone.
The one thing Thorin Oakenshield had never worried about, was the particular rise of his focaccia. And yet, it was the single most hair-raising experience of his long, bitter life.

Summary
"Ori did not care that it was pouring rain, nor that he might catch a cold from waiting above ground. It had been months; days, nights and weeks of missing his One, wishing Fíli had been home.
Fíli was the King Under the Mountain though, and therefore there were duties he had to attend to that did not involve staying put. Sometimes Ori could go, but other times, it was best he remained in Erebor, to rule in Fíli's stead. So, this most recent diplomacy trip that was what Ori had done. However, he had more than enough of his husband not being home anymore.
At first sight of Fíli, Ori's heart swooped. He remained near the front gates though, because it looked like the King was leading the charge atop his pony, urging it on at breakneck speed. He was still a little way off though, so Ori stayed up on the battlements, waiting.
As Ori watched Fíli's approach, droplets of water began to fall, which was just their luck."
OR; Ori missed his husband and got sick for his troubles.

El secreto que guardan las cartas by Donna_Bagginshield

Summary
En el presente, Frodo está muy feliz con su familia adoptiva, pero un pedazo de pasado (una carta) le hace percatarse de que en realidad nunca ha conocido la historia completa de como "sus tíos" pasaron de simples compañeros de misión a estar viviendo apaciblemente en la comarca como si siempre hubieran pertenecido ahí.
Eso lo hizo tomar una decisión: convertirse en detective para unir cada uno de los hilos (más cartas) que lo permitieran descubrir cuál fue la historia y porque ninguno de los dos parecía querer hablar sobre eso. -

Summary
Después de tantos años teniendo una vida normal (o al menos normal para un hobbit respetable), un viejo hobbit y un viejo enano se vieron envueltos en una misión nueva: cuidar al joven sobrino de Bilbo al que habían (si, los dos) adoptado.
No era una misión difícil en realidad, pues era un niño bastante bien portado, pero por supuesto que seguramente eso les traería momentos un tanto interesantes, fuera de lo que habían vivido esos últimos años de retiro. -

“You've watched,” The dwarf stated matter-of-factly, watching as Bilbo gasped in a dramatic fashion at the accusation. “What kind of hobbit do you take me for, Master dwarf?”
