[ There are certain challenges to following a dwarf on a mission, who does not seem to know fear. Thorin is used to a certain amount of lagging behind and general fidgeting when it comes to Bilbo. If he waited for every small thing that the hobbit got himself worked up over, he'd never make any progress. That said, he keeps a closer eye on Bilbo than it would seem.
Still, he wasn't exactly expecting the sudden weight of a hobbit clinging to his back, either. It's not enough to drag him to the floor, even caught flat-footed, but he does tilt backward for a moment before regaining balance. Once righted, he turns to give Bilbo a look, and rolls his eyes briefly toward the ceiling as he drops the pack with a heavy thud at the nearest empty table.
Before anything else is accomplished, there needs to be ale, clearly. ]
