[ Of course it isn't! Ridiculous. So utterly ridiculous. Though, of course, this is coming from the dwarf who charged down the trunk of a burning tree to face the white orc and his pack, so self-preservation isn't a trait that should be associated with Thorin. Ever.
Trying his best not to give into some less than polite urges and oh, perhaps roll his eyes, he pads over to the bed as Thorin pokes and prods himself. It's a touch taller than a bed should be and so Bilbo has to hop more than he'd like, a tad ungratefully too; soon he settles though and rearranges to sit comfortably.
He picks up the roll of cloth and then, hm. Is it simply because he's closer? Or is it the mere fact that he can actually look without feeling as though he shouldn't? Either way, the damage looks worse than he originally thought.
There it is, the up-swelling of exasperation again. This Bilbo may not be as bravely outspoken as Thorin's Bilbo, however, uncertainty can only detour the uptight nature of his carefully crafted sensibilities for so long. Order, logic, there's a routine to Bilbo, one that he falls back on whenever he encounters someone doing something particularly foolish. And he's been finding that dwarves, especially, do many, many foolish things.
So it can't be helped, the way his voice drawls, dry and unimpressed. ] If this is nothing, I wonder then, what something would be. [ He's seen Thorin nearly bitten in two, and judging by that nasty scar, this Thorin may have been close to being skewered; so what's the standard? Or are dwarves incapable of admitting pain? ]
