    Summary

    Simon remembers when bathing was something that never took longer than 3 minutes. In, wash, and out. Not like he had a choice, with the dwindling resources. But it had seemed so thoughtless, periodic and routine that he'd never given it much consideration.

    OR

    Grace helps Simon wash his hair.

    Summary

    When Bilbo puts himself between Thorin and Azog's blade, his mithril shirt protecting them both, it isn't long before some dwarves whisper that 'Oakenshield' might not be the best epithet for their king anymore. But for Bilbo, barred from Thorin's sight since the battle, this new epithet only adds to the sting. Spending his days caring for the recovering princes, Bilbo wonders how much more of this he can take, not suspecting his place at the center of a silent divide in the company.
