This document summarizes a research project analyzing portrayals of romantic relationships between Bilbo Baggins and Thorin Oakenshield in fanfiction. The researcher downloaded the first 100 most popular stories from Archive of Our Own featuring this relationship tag and used text analysis tools like Voyant to analyze word frequencies and explore how the relationship is portrayed. Preliminary results found Bilbo and Thorin mentioned together over 27,000 times, compared to only 466 times for Kili and Tauriel. The researcher plans to reduce the corpus size to make the analysis more manageable.
