HAPPY NEW YEAR, FLIST! Hooooomg, I am exhausted. So, so exhausted. I got back from Texas on New Year's Eve (Galveston was lovely, but my aunt and uncle--i.e. my dad's sister and brother, one of whom is still recovering from lung cancer--are elderly and not in the best health, so the trip was long and tiring and depressing on many levels), then turned right around and went out to a fancy dinner with Mr. Foxx that included bottomless champagne. THEN, right after midnight, the couple at the table beside us (whom Mr. Foxx swore was Dick Cheney and his wife, the resemblance was UNCANNY) started buying shots for everyone. Needless to say, we ended up literally stumbling up the street at 2:00am like a couple of frat bros and buying a room at the nearest hotel to pass out in. I was hungover as FUCK yesterday, and we still had a two hour drive home. :(((( I haven't unpacked, my house is kind of a disaster area, and I am also getting sick again. I am also back at work for the first time in a week and a half. :((((((

ANYWAY, SPEAKING OF FRAT BROS, CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE HOBBIT AND THE DRUNKEN FRAT BROS OF MIDDLE EARTH? Or more specifically, Fili and Kili, who basically took over my brain over the Christmas holiday. I literally spent every waking moment not entertaining family reading any and all things Fili/Kili, aka DURINCEST. For the first time, I've reading everything under a pairing tag on AO3. Yes, I know, and I don't want to hear it. THEY ARE HARD TO RESIST, OKAY???

LOOK, YOU GUYS.

This is Fili and Kili (as played by Dean O'Gorman and Aidan Turner):

Fili is the older of the two brothers. Kili is the baby and loves archery, beer, and his bro.

THEY ARE BB DWARVES (no, seriously, they are canonically like 17 and 19) FOLLOWING THEIR UNCLE THORIN (who is played by the fucking delicious Richard Armitage) ON AN ADVENTURE!!

SEXY DWARVES WITH SWAGGER.

I mean, when I say dwarves are the drunken frat bros of Middle Earth, I am not joking. THIS VIDEO IS BASICALLY THE FIRST HALF OF THE MOVIE. I'm sure if Bilbo had had Petron on hand there would have been shots involved.

FTR, Durincest in general can involve Thorin with these two--threesome fic is not uncommon! However, I'm more into the brothers themselves and Thorin just being the exasperated, put-upon uncle who shakes his head at his nephews' shenanigans. I love these bbs a lot, but they are really dumb sometimes.

Now, there's not a whooooole lot of fic on these two currently? But there are some real gems, especially on The Hobbit kink meme. Pretty much anything by

sospes is amazing:

* With You By My Side - Deals with the fallout of Fili becoming king of Erebor instead of Thorin.
* Stoke the Fire - Kili and Fili hate each other. SO GREAT.
* Heat - Possessive!Kili uuuuuugh
*** Those Who Wait - THIS is the fic I'd probably have anyone read first if you're wanting to get into this pairing. So, so perfect, and the Fili voice is fantastic and heartbreaking.

Other recs on AO3:

* in places deep (where dark things sleep) by Liu
* The World is Ahead (But Tonight We Sleep) by archae_ology (SLEEPOVER AT BAG END!)
* On the Road by listedheart (PORN)

You can also troll the Durincest tag on Tumblr, because ARRRRRRT. THE ART, PRECIOUSSSSS.

( ART )

And yes, RPS exists, because Jesus Christ we are only human, y'know??
