Bilbo stands up and goes to the door. He opens it and there stands a dwarf, covered in weapons and tattoos.
At first, he looks intimidating but, I get the feeling that once I get to know him, he is going to be a great friend.
"Dwalin, at your service." he says as he bowed.
Bilbo quickly ties his robe.
"Bilbo Baggins, at yours." Bilbo says before Dwalin steps through the door. "Hang on, do we know each other?"
"No." Dwalin says, simply.
He hangs his coat on the coat hanger, then starts to look around the house for something.
"Is it here?" he asks.
"Is what here?" Bilbo asks, not knowing at all what he means.
"Supper, he said that there would be food." answers Dwalin.
"He said? Who said?" Bilbo simply asks more questions.
Gandalf, most likely. Dwalin finds the fish that Bilbo was about to eat and eats the whole fish. Literally.
"It's good, this is. Got anymore?" he asks Bilbo.
Bilbo goes to the jar of biscuits, takes one, hides it in his pocket, and hands the jar to Dwalin.
"And who are you?" Dwalin asks me.
"Thea, sir. I am here to help with the quest." I answer his question.
He nods, but looks as if he slightly disapproves.
"I don't mean to be rude, sir, but, I wasn't exactly expecting company." Bilbo says, more like stammers, to Dwalin.
Then, there's another knock on the door.
"That'll be the door." Dwalin says with a smirk on his face.
I start to set up for the dwarves, now that I know that a lot more are coming.
Dwalin starts to help, but he keeps trying to get another biscuit.
"Balin, at your service." says another dwarf.
He's older than Dwalin, has white hair and beard, and looks really friendly.
"Good evening." Bilbo says, losing the soft kindness.
"Yes yes it is." Balin agrees, looking up at the sky.
He walks in and sees Dwalin.
"Haha. Hello, brother." he says, broad smile and laughing.
"By my beard, you've gotten old enough for both of us." Dwalin says in a jokingly tone.
"Wiser, not older. You could use some." Balin replies in the same way.
They chuckle and then head butt each other. At this, Bilbo looks really confused. And I have to stifle a laugh from his expression.
