"Yes." Bilbo smiled. "Not immediately, but now that there are more people here I'm told there will be an official crowning ceremony, and after that will be the marriage and all that fuss."

"Well that sounds exciting," Hyacinth said, grinning. She studied him for a moment. There was something that she couldn't quite put her finger on. "What else is there that you haven't told us yet?"

Bilbo looked at them both for a moment before he sighed. He should have known he wouldn't be able to keep it a secret from them.
"There is a particular Took family trait that I seem to have inherited."

Hyacinth's brow furrowed at that, and she glanced at her sister.
"The way you say it, I'm going to assume you don't mean the wanderlust," she said.

"Apart from that." Bilbo took a deep breath, clearly steeling himself. "I'm carrying his child."

Hyacinth was speechless for a moment.
"That's wonderful," she said, grinning. "Have you told him yet?"

Bilbo nodded, turning red. "I did," he murmured. "It is a part of the reason I'm staying."
"That's fabulous, Uncle Bilbo." Amaryllis grinned at him. Then she paused. "But you don't have any other hobbits around to help."

"Well now he has us," Hyacinth said, nodding once. "It's a good thing we came out to find you, Uncle." She grinned. "Now I need to see if I can find the supplies to start a blanket for our little cousin."

Bilbo just sighed. "It's not actually up to me if you stay, you do still have to ask Thorin." He paused. "And I know where to get knitting supplies."

"You need other hobbits around," Hyacinth said stubbornly. "He can kick us out after our cousin is born if he likes."

"Don't argue with me, I already told you I'm the wrong person to convince," Bilbo told her with a little huff.

"Relax, Uncle," Hyacinth said. "We'll make it work." She grinned. "Besides, you probably have his ear more than anyone else, so technically..."

"Incorrigible thing," Bilbo said, waving her off with a grin. "I would say you two have enough help from Lady Dis."

"If you say so." Bilbo shook his head a little. "I'm sure I'll have a chance to see for myself later. For now, however, I do believe it's about snack time."

"Ooh, yes, excellent idea," Hyacinth said, grinning.
Elsewhere, Dis was watching Thorin pace back and forth in his chambers. She could see he was obviously worked up about something, but she was waiting for him to be ready to speak.

"I intend to marry Bilbo." Thorin winced almost as soon as the words were out of his mouth, but he didn't try to take them back.

Dis raised an eyebrow at that.
"Go on," she said, nodding a little.

Thorin sighed slowly. "Bilbo is my One," he murmured. "I have treated him harshly, and I know I do not deserve his love and his forgiveness. And yet, he gives it." He stopped and actually smiled a little. "So I plan to marry him, after the official coronation."

Dis smiled as well.
"I'm glad," she said. "You deserve happiness, Thorin. And it certainly explains why you're pacing so."

Thorin huffed a bit and sat in a chair just to prove he wasn't pacing. "I have worried that he would miss his home and his people," he murmured.

"How fortunate for you, then, that his kin came to him," Dis pointed out with a bit of a grin.

Thorin gave her a bit of a look. "Yes, fortunate," he drawled. "The question that remains is how long they will wish to stay."

"They were already on their way when I encountered them," Dis said. "I merely eased their journey. And that is perhaps a question better asked of your consort, brother. They are his kin, after all, I'm sure they have much to catch up on."

Thorin shrugged. "You know them," he pointed out. "I merely thought to get your opinion before I speak to them and Bilbo."
