Summary: The Dwarves are returning to Erebor reclaimed, and the elves uphold their promise to safeguard the caravans as they pass through Mirkwood. One particular Dwarf has wit and spark enough to match Legolas Greenleaf - perhaps even outmatch him. It's hate at first sight.

Recommendation: I can't believe it has taken me so long to rec this! It has been literal years since I found this and fell utterly in love, but every time I thought to read it again I rediscovered that I hadn't rec'ed it yet! Well, no longer! This is one of my most favorite stories of all time. It makes me happy every time. I love their banter, I love their correspondence, I love them sharing things about themselves and their people. UGH, it is so beautiful!
