Tygr POV

I scrubbed my sons hair getting the dirt and cake out of it. "Well, it looks like you had fun." I said smiling. He turned and smiled at me. "Ai! It was really fun!" He said with a giggle. I smiled and noticed very very faint hairs on his chin. "Looks like your going to have a beard like you taad!" I said with a grin. "Why don't I have ears like that?" He asked pointing to my pointed animal ears atop my head. "Oh, well love you just didn't get the gene that would give you these. Your more like you dad." I said. He made an o with his mouth and nodded. I stood and grabbed a towel and handed him it. "Get dressed my love." I said. Allistor didn't hesitate to listen. I grinned and nodded before going into my bedroom and taking out my braid, little my hair flow freely. I brushed through it then saw my son at the door. "Alright! Let's go hunt down your father." I said.

I loved my son, with every ounce of my heart but boy...did he walk slow. I tapped my foot and looked at him then a light blinked in my head. "My love, you wanna do something fun?" I asked kneeling down. He smiled and nodded. "Are you aware your mother can form into an animal?" I asked. His eyes lit up like fireworks. "No!! Can I ride you?!!" He asked. 'Read my mind' I thought. I formed into the form right below my fighting and kneeled down as he got on. He was very light compared to his father. He held onto my fur as I trotted down the hall, careful not to let him fall. Soon enough we made our way down to the main hall which led to various places. I formed into back into a girl held took my sons hand. "Stay close I don't want you getting lost." I said. Allistor nodded. We walked for a while until we found Bofur. "Hey! Have you see Thorin?" I asked. He shook his head then smiled at Allistor, "hello there lad!" He said. "Hello Mr. Bofur!" Allistor chimed. I smiled and ruffled his hair. "No actually just remembered when he went off too. Bofur would you mind watching Allistor?" I asked. Before he could reply Kili and Fili popped out of nowhere. "WE WILL!!" They yelled. I laughed and nodded, "okay! Thank you!" I said as they scooped up my son. I placed a hand on bofurs shoulder, "watch him," I said. "Aye, with my life." He said with a grin. I giggled and ran off to my bedroom. Though on the way I heard someone mention my name. I knew it was me because no dwarf was names Tygr....it just wasn't a thing. "I'm so excited to need her, Thorin says she's lovely." I heard the woman say. I turned and tapped on the woman's shoulder. "You wanted to meet me?" I asked. She turned and looked me up and down. "Oh my dear you are her!! You've got the wolf ears and tail to prove it!" She said. I laughed nervously. "Y-yes...pardon me but may I ask who you are?" I asked. "Oh! My name is Dis! I'm K-" I cut her off. "Kili and Fili's mother!" I said excited before hugging her and letting go. "I've heard so much about you!!!" I said smiling. She laughed and nodded, "and I you! Thorin just filled me in on how you two met and how you helped reclaim our home...even slayed Smaug!" She said. I scratched behind my head and nodded. "Yes, I did." I said with a grin. "Where where you earlier?" She asked. "Oh! I was in Mirkwood. Had business to attend too." I said with a scowl. Dis chuckled, "I don't like Thranduil ether, don't ye worry." She said nudging my arm. I smiled and laughed. "Where are you off too?" She asked. "To find Thorin actually." I said. "Oh well then run along dear. I don't want to keep him waiting." She said before shooing me away. "We must talk at dinner!" I said happily before running off. "I plan on it!" She yelled back. I ran through the halls, my tail waving back and forth behind me before I pushed open my bedroom door. "Thorin! I just got to meet Dis she seems so ni-" I stopped talking when I saw Thorin with his arms crossed...and my dress laid out on the bed. "What is this?" He snapped. I instantly felt my blood boil. "That...is my wedding dress. Thorin I told you not to open that!" I said. "Why in Durin's name would you ever choose to wear an elvish wedding dress over a dwarfish." He said. I rolled my eyes. "I don't want to hear it Thorin." I snapped trying to go and get the dress. However Thorin picked me up by my waist and threw me over his shoulder before caring me and setting me down on a chair. "Tell me, NOW." He yelled. I hated when he was like this. "DONT! I hate it when you yell at me! It hurts my ears!" I said as I covered my ears and ducked my head. I heard Thorin sighed and back away. "Do you like Elvish dresses better?" He asked. I shook my head, "no, but that dress...it looks like the one my mother had on her wedding day. I just miss her Thorin." I said quietly. "If you want me to get rid of it I will." I said, a lump in my throat. I went to walk and grab the dress however Thorin grabbed my arm. "No...I...may have overreacted. You can wear whatever you like. As long as you feel beautiful in it." He said. Smiled widely and swung around hugging him tightly. "Thank you Thorin!" I said lovingly. I let go and kissed his lips gently. "Of course my love...now...what where you saying when you burst in here?" He asked. "Oh! I met your sister!" I said smiling. He grinned, "really? Was she nice?" He asked. "Oh yeah! Very! I asked her to sit next to me during dinner so I could talk to her more." I said in a happy tone. "Lovely, speaking of dinner. They should be starting it soon. I'm going to go see that everything is in order." He said. "Everything in order? What do you mean?" I asked. He patted my head like a child, "don't worry about it, just bathe and dress up nicely okay?" He said. I sighed and nodded. "Alright, by the way Allistor is with you nephews." I said. Thorin nodded, "alright, I'll get him on my way to the kitchen." He said. "That would be great." I said. Thorin kissed my cheek and quickly left. "Dress nicely...ugh...pressure. And now I have to impress Dis...and who knows who else will be there." I groaned as I went to the bathroom and ran water into the tub. I stripped my clothes off and slid into the nice water, though I always made it sort of cold since I don't like heat. I dunked my head under the water quickly before beginning to scrub shampoo into my hair. I washed my body, hair, ears and tail before finally just soaking in the water. I flicked the water occasionally and sighed. I pushed myself out of the water and glanced at the towel. I dried my body then tossed the towel aside. I walked towards my bed and got under the covers. "I hate clothes...so much." I muttered staring at my closet as I pulled the blanket closer. Suddenly Thorin came through the door, "I forgot my co-" he stopped looking at me. He raised an eyebrow, "are you dressed...at all?" He asked. I shook my head. "Oh really?" He asked with a slight grin. I internally screamed hoping he would do something. He leaned over me, his lips hovering over over mine. "Get dressed, silly girl." He said with a a smile. I frowned and butted his forehead with mine. "Jerk." I said throwing the blankets off of me and stomping over to the closet. I could feel his eyes hungrily watching my every movement. "I don't know what to wear." I said. I heard Thorin walking towards me and his hand go around my waist and the other reach and grab a light blue dress with silver lining and a criss cross corset back. "This one, I like this one." He said placing a kiss on my shoulder before pressing the dress to my chest and let me go. "Alright." I said tossing the dress on the bed as I walked to the dresser and put on underwear. I slipped the dress on and looked at myself. "It's a little lose." I said looking at him. "Tighten it?" I asked. He nodded and began fixing the fit with the corset back. He pulled it tighter, "good?" I asked. I nodded and he tied it into a bow. "Thank you~" I said happily. I slipped on some shoes and brushed through my hair. "Well? Is this alright?" I asked turning around. I noticed Thorin had quickly changed himself. "How do you do that so fast?!" I asked. "I don't ponder on how I look. I get dressed, that's how." He said in a snappy tone. "Whew, sassy...what's wrong?" I asked. He shook his head, "it's nothing. Come on, it's time for dinner."

Thorin POV

I walked beside my bride, she looked stunning even in such little lavish clothing. From the way her hair flowed to the way her dress fit her curves...just perfect. We walked with her hand gently wrested on my bicep. We endured the dinning hall. I heard an audible gasp come from her lips. "How come I never saw this?" She whispered. "I never showed you this room." I whispered back. I pulled a chair out for Tygr that was next to mine, and beside Dis's who was not here yet. I then sat at my chair at the head of the table. I watched Tygr straighten her posture and mind her manners...I was impressed actually. I honestly wasn't expecting her to know how to act in a setting like this. I noticed Dis coming towards us with a nicely dressed Fili, Kili and Allistor in tow. Tygr smiled at the sight of our son. "Allistor come here." I said. He came running and I lifted him up, sitting him across from his mother. I then noticed a certain brother of my bride come in, dressed nicely. I tapped Tygr's shoulder and pointed. "Beorn!!" She said happily before briskly walking and hugging him tightly. She sat him beside Allistor in a larger chair we brought out. Tygr couldn't wipe the smile off her face. Dis sat beside Tygr and one by one the table filled up. I listened to Dis and Tygr chatter happily and Fili and Kili make smart comments about how they only met two hours ago and their talking like they've known each other their whole life. After the table filled I stood with my glass in my hand. "A toast!" I said loudly lifting up my glass. "To the arrival of my dear sister, Dis, and Tygr's elder brother Beorn." I said gesturing to them both. Dis smiled and Beorn bowed his head. "And to the upcoming wedding between Tygr and I!" I said smiling. Everyone at the table, save for Tygr and Allistor who had no idea we where only saying cheers in khazdul. I smiled and sat back down as dinner begun to be served.
