What I would say to Bilbo right now (Nic)

What I would say to Bilbo right now is that he needs to hurry up. In the book he and his "crew" just sat in the cave waiting to see if Smaug would return. But there was no mention of him seeing if he was still in the cave. In other words they just sat in a cave for three days doing nothing. Even though they did leave because they were slowly suffocating they found that Smaug was gone, so they would've been fine if they had left in those three days.
Another thing I want to say to Bilbo is become a better planner, meaning he needs to plan ahead. When Bilbo is talking to Smaug he realizes he can't get all the treasure back to where they came from. He also didn't have a plan to defeat Smaug, he takes it into consideration a few times but  never thinks of anything.
The worst part is, he never wants to do anything, he only does things because the dwarves have to rely on him so he's  the only one ever doing anything.
A good thing I would like to say to him is how accepting he is and lucky. Even though the dwarves rely on him for so much he is always willing to do what they can't. Even though i  the book it says how he seems adventurous I think that he's just hiding behind the safety of his ring. Because before he got the ring the dwarves thought him useless, but once he got it he became more willing to do "bold" things, but brings me to the point, what will happen if he loses the ring, will he still be as adventurous or will he go back to the way he was?
