[He hears Kíli first, then Fíli, and he shouldn't but... he is relieved to hear them. Or maybe he should, it's not like there was any real doubt that they would be gone to some other place - he saw them die, after all, and when he asked it was confirmed to him that they were dead.
Even if this place is nothing like what he would have imagined to see in the afterlive, and reminds him of nothing from before - an odd, close off house that seems to be moving - they are at least together. He almost feared to not find them.
Unlike with the boys, his wounds are not hindering him as much, they seem healed to a point. He was cleaned up slightly before he died already, so he doesn't look quite as bad as they maybe remember last seeing him, either - there has been an attempt to save him, clearly, before he died. Not much of it, though - the injuries sustained were too obviously lethal for much, and then he requested to be put back into his armour so he could go properly.]
Kíli! [He goes for the younger one's voice, just because he is the younger one and Thorin will always instinctively trust Fíli more to find his way - especially after the events of Dale. It takes only moments before he finds him, and...
He hopes that he sent an apology to Dís before he died, he cannot quite remember. I couldn't bring your boys back to you. She is strong, and he knows that she will go on - his father's blood may flow in her, but she's stronger than that. Still.
Going down on one knee, his hand find's his nephew's arm, establishing contact. He really is here.] I'm here. [With everything that that implies.]
