I just had a terrible thought...
[In reply to]

There's no way that Tauriel's love interest might be Bilbo right? I mean he is the hero of the book in some ways and he might chance upon her in the elven halls, and sparks fly etc. Then they meet again when Bilbo steals the Arkenstone and goes down to bargain. She would of course have to die so as to explain her absence in lotr (but that seems rather inevitable). In some ways this could reflect how his tookish side is growing stronger and so being drawn to the elves. Almost Freudian. Don't get me wrong; I'd hate to see this happen, but you never know. Who else could her love interest possibly be? -Bard would be too much like Aragorn-Arwen -Legolas is out of the question apparently -Thorin and dwarfes seems unlikely unless she bewitches and then breaks someone's heart which would give more meaning to film-Gimli's line at the council of Elrond "never trust an elf" (I love that small-minded bigotry he espouses, it always makes me laugh as its so silly) Who else could it possibly be? Terrible thought I know!
