They stood like that for a moment. Nemeses. Clutching each other as though no one else in the world existed. Funny how hate and love were like that. All consuming. Years of chasing, fighting, catch and release, of playing hide and seek among the stars. She probably knew him better than anyone.
PWP smut. Enjoy!

Summary
Dwarves can't swim. They are made of stone and they are quick to believe they are incapable of staying afloat. In reality, they are just a bit too heavy and dip faster than any other race, but that does not imply they're incapable of swimming! But information carried through generations can grow out of proportion, until dwarves are made believe they simply can't swim at all.
But Bilbo knows better.
This story consists of 4 smaller stories that all tie into each other, but could be read separately;
1. Bilbo learns that dwarves can't swim, and Fili and Kili nearly drown
2. Bilbo teaches the company of dwarves to swim
3. That same night, Bilbo teaches Thorin to swim
4. The dwarves arrive in Lake Town, and there's only one way to get to Bard's house unseenBookmarked by birdkeeperklink (speculating)

Summary
Remus wasn't sure how to describe what he was doing. Running away would have been the most honest explanation, but that would have begged the question of what he was running from, and he didn't have an answer for that. He was starting to suspect, after two and a half years on the road, that the only thing he was running from was the one thing he could never escape – himself.
When Remus walks into a strange little hostel called Marauders' Rest, beside a remote New Zealand beach, everything changes. He finds a community. He finds himself settling in. And he finds Sirius Black. But when a child goes missing, Remus makes a split-second decision that puts everything he's come to love at risk.

Summary
The ocean was enormous. It felt bigger than anything Wei Wuxian had encountered before. Their first day in the tiny fishing village Lan Wangji wanted to revisit, Wei Wuxian walked right up to where the waves lapped against the rocky beach and stood as the spray splashed the front of his robes.
One particularly large wave broke against a nearby rock and splattered his face. He licked the salt off his lips, laughing, and turned to Lan Wangji.
Lan Wangji stood a safe distance from the surf. He had one hand clutched tight around Bichen and the other resting on his hip. From this distance, he looked impassive, but Wei Wuxian knew that Lan Wangji's eyes would be soft, watching him delight in this new experience.
In his first life, Wei Wuxian had been the second-strongest swimmer in Yunmeng Jiang; he took to water as easily as he took to cultivating the sword. Now, in Mo Xuanyu's body, he struggled with both.
He was determined to re-master his old skills. And what better time to do it than on his extended honeymoon with Lan Wangji?
