good mornings a wizard and then immediately implies he should be dead
can’t make it through a meeting he doesn’t even want to be at without chiming in with his opinion
plans to walk to erebor
tells elrond lord of rivendell that he’s full of shit to his face
avoids bad situations by just falling to the floor
tells a weird and scary creature that lives in the dark and just killed an orc with a rock and is clearly contemplating eating him his full name and address when asked
dramatic reveals™
tackles an orc – very poor to entirely useless sense of self preservation
can’t stop himself from twanging what it very obviously a ginormous spider web – bagginses obviously unfamiliar with arachnids as a species generally i guess
remembers instructions well even if he can’t get others to follow them
steals dwarves
asks strangers for their names
makes thorin oakenshield nearly cry in front of the whole town while he’s trying to be majestic
keen eyes
has no idea what he came all this way to steal
will do whatever it takes to save his dwarves
look i can’t even joke about this. he loves thorin so much. he fears for him but is never afraid of him. he goes back to thorin’s side again and again and again, even when it might be dangerous. he loves thorin so much and he’ll do whatever it takes.
including telling a wizard to his face to fuck off and charging head on into an ambush
“i know you must honor him in that way, but to me he was never that. he was…he was…”
bilbo baggins, luck wearer, barrel rider, ring winner, he who walks unseen
The best use of magic in the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit movies is whenever Gandalf uses it to make his voice really loud to win an argument because I would do the same thing.
