I finally found it! But I had to find it on my laptop instead of my phone.

Can I request for a Reader who is a Dragon Rider from 'How to Train Your Dragon' (You can decide what her dragon is), being in relationships with the Norse Gods (Odin, Thor and Loki). Your choice is they want to have families at the end.

A/N: I haven’t watched these movies in so long so I had to dig up some information, thankfully it wasn’t hard to find. I also made this as Hiccup and Astrid’s child since it made more sense to me.

🪶 Odin first met you when he had a meeting with your tribe

🪶 Your parents, Hiccup and Astrid, had gotten older and you took up as leader of your tribe, which meant you needed to go to meetings with surrounding nations, Gods included

🪶 You jumped onto your Bewilderbeast, which you named Asger, and rode away to the meeting with the Norse family

🪶 Odin knew your family had these creatures, and when they landed, his birds, Huginn and Muninn, jumped and squawked at you all, demanding to know why your band of humans was there

🪶 Asger sat behind you as you walked up to Odin, bowing as a greeting, which caused Asger to do the same

🪶 Odin looked at your dragon and smirked, he had no idea you humans could tame the beasts to such size

🪶 After the meeting, Odin had invited you over a lot more, saying he wished to talk about your dragon and how your tribe came to tame the beasts

🪶 He admired your personality, strong-willed yet calm and collected

🪶 And he cannot lie, watching Huginn and Muninn jump whenever Asger opened his large mouth or poked at them with his large tusks got him laughing mentally

🌩️ You had gone to a meeting with your parents and they decided to have you take a step outside for a break

🌩️ You may be the heir, but they wanted you to have some freedom before taking the reins of the entire tribe and dragon relations

🌩️ Your Crimson Goregutter, Bjørn, followed you as you walked through the fields of Asgard, and you had to admit, it was surprisingly well taken care off

🌩️ Bjørn held his tail in front of you when a strong presence was felt, and it was your ally’s son, Thor, who radiated that aura

🌩️ Thor felt the ground shake as your dragon took his steps, and when he saw how tall it was compared to you, he had to admit, he was surprised you could handle him

🌩️ You hushed Bjørn and greeted Thor as the child of Astrid Hofferson and Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III

🌩️ The God of Thunder had heard about your tribe through others, your tribe had many dragons that you treated like family, and it made him smile lightly as you pet Bjørn’s wings

🌩️ He wanted to know more about these creatures, and he definitely would invite you to speak about them more

●・○・●・○・●・○・●・○・●・○・●・○・●・○・●・○・●・○・●・

🐍 Oh he was so interested in your dragon!

🐍 You were told by your mother and father to stray away from the nephew of Odin’s, as he was known as one of the most dangerous Gods in the Norse Pantheon

🐍 Loki had hopped onto your Deathgripper’s head, causing them to go berserk, seeing him as a threat

🐍 The Hobgobbler that you were petting and training for their first flight jumped and hid behind you as you tried calming Guenther, your Deathgripper, down

🐍 He flew off of it and landed nicely as you stopped Guenther’s tail from smashing into the man’s stomach, and thankfully, Guenther listened to you

🐍 Despite the rough meeting, Loki and Guenther got along quite well

🐍 From their dark, pet playful personalities, the two of them like messing around and pranking other Gods

🐍 While your parents are concerned about you being with the God of Mischief, they can sense the love you guys both carry for one another, and, because they don’t wanna hurt your feelings and restrict you from being free

Does anyone else know or remember the big four? I'm sure there are many fandoms who have their classic quartet that everyone knows but I'm talking about the big four of children's movies. Jack Frost, Guardian of child innocence, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock The 3rd, Merida of DunBroach and Rapunzel of Princess of Corona. THE. BIG FOUR. if you've looked at my page you'll have noticed that I recently gotten back on my childhood hyper fixation of HTTYD. I'm so happy to have this back in my life but I've been introduced to the concept of The Big Four. AND I AM IN LOVE. I love the idea of them being woven into each other's stories. As a kid the four of them were my favourites. Hands down. Out of Disney, Pixar and DreamWorks. They are my favourite. And I've been seeing so much art work and it's making me want to write more than I have the time for. But I've just been really really excited to see them together. It's just been really inspiring and made me extremely happy. And I wanted to see who else felt the same way. Comment or reblog with what these four meant you

Can u write what having a family with tintin is like? 😳😳

Oww,this sounds so cute!

I'll make my best to do justice for your request! I hope you like it 😌👌🏽

Having a family with ✨Tintin✨

First of,as soon you go to him and say that you were finally pregnant.

His heart stopped. Tintin probably asked for you to say it at least four times until it finally sink in and he was beyond happiness.

So much that he called Haddock right away to tell the good news,the old sea man couldn't be more happy for his son

I mean...

Friend (nah,it's son. And he acted like a proud father when Tintin said he would be a dad)

When your children was born,he make sure to pause his adventures to be with you and the children,even before,Tintin was aways there for you during all nine months. For you to not stress yourself about his safety or anything,this was the last thing he would want you to feel, mostly when you were pregnant.

No one can take it out of my mind. As soon you give birth. You did. Nothing anymore.

He would never let you do something on the house,you had to really talk with him to share the chores because he didn't want you to get too much tired from this,even more now that you had a child to take care of.

Of course wasn't just you,Tintin also took care of your child when you were exhausted or taking care of him for too long. He basically became a happily "house husband" even though it was also far more exhausting than his adventures.

He couldn't care less,he was happy.

Happy to see his children first steps and words,making all those normal father things like teaching your children to ride a bike,passing his good taste on books,telling storys about his adventures.

Tintin every now and then could feel that sensation,missing the reporter life but,as soon he stare at you playing in a silly and cute way with your children,he couldn't contain the happy and proud smile.

It's worth.

Every second. He regret nothing.

But...

".....oh...."

Tintin turned his body to face you,asking with a "hm?",not worried at first.

"it's just...well...."

Ok. Now he was concerned.

"is there any problems,darling?"

You shook your head,with a little smile,kinda awkward but still,really happy handing him some papers. He grab it,looking that they were medical exams. Tintin's gaze goes back to you,in a way like he asking for answers,but you just pointed out for the papers. He let out a short sigh,open it up and analyzing for a little while before slowly lifting his head to look at you. Surprised and almost shooked.

"...is this...?"

You just nod and he look back for the papers and then,for you again.

"you are... pregnant? Again...??"

"yes!"

"but...when-"

"don't even start with that 'when',you know exactly when and how"

He look away with a faint hint of a blush above his cheeks,you giggle a bit coming closer and hugging your husband who's hug you back in the same act.

"so...another one..."

"yes...it's good for our children have a little brother or sister,they'll-"

He kiss you. Hugging you slightly tight,one of his hands going for the back of your head dragging you closer,almost deepening the kiss but pulling away before it could happen. That same hands tucking a loose patch of your hair behind your ear, admiring your face with a not too goofy smile.

"I love you [Name],i simply can't express how happy i'm right now"

"you don't need to say it...i know you like no one else,remember?"

He chuckled at your light playful tone,nodding and resting his forehead on yours.

"you know why i don't miss that much my adventures?"

"because you don't have time to think about it?"

Both of you laughed a bit. He shook his head,helding you as much close he could.

"good guess,but...the real thing is because..."

Looking deep into your eyes and he continue, whispering in a soft and loving voice:

"You are my adventure,[Name]."

_________________________________________

A.N: I know i know,the end was too cornie but i couldn't contain myself It sounds so cute to me 😭. And Bro??? I really getting more requests! It's really exciting! And DAYUM- some ideas are so good,i'll start writing soon. And again,thank you for requesting! 😌♥️

♡Tintin Headcannons♡

• Isn't a cat person but still likes cats, he loves to pet them when they rub themselves on his legs on the street, his favourite are black and white ones.

• Constantly warm hands, dosent matter how cold it is, his hands are a hot water bottle and there is no changing that.

• Had a bird obsession phase when he was a child, specifically robins, he thought he could relate to them and that they were his best friends because of their breast being reddish like his hair. (his hair used to be a little darker colour, but it got lighter as he got older)

• He got bullied a bit because of his hair when he was a child. He gets super happy when someone compliments his hair, so it makes him happy for days.

• Got him and Snowy matching coloured jackets for long winter walks.

• Loves classical music, mainly Mozart and Bach, and just plays them around the house, sometimes humming the tune.

• Sings to himself and is a really good singer. (not any real songs. He sings as he commentates what he's doing.)

• Absolute pro at ballroom dances and practises Ceilidh dances. (Im putting that extra one in there because, as a Scot, i want to Ceilidh dance with him so bad.)

• Cooks the best meals known to mankind, and when he makes a curry, it doesn't matter whether you like curry or not. You do when he makes it.

• Once, he was really tired after he got Snowy as a puppy because he kept him up all night with barking, and he forgot that he was Belgian, and accidentally told someone he was from Paris.

• Cant understand much of Scots slang or phrases. He just figures out whether it sounds good or bad and how they said it, and then he decides on how to react or reply to whatever the person said. Usually, he just replies with a chuckle and an unsure sounding "yeah".

• As long as he is concentrating, he has oddly neat handwriting, even when writing really fast, probably writes in Calligraphy or something fancy, if it's just quickness without an important meaning, like a little note about what to get from a shop or a reminder to do a simple task, then he writes in wtf does that say. (He can't read it either and then forgets what the note said)

• Cries more when he is happy rather than when he is sad, whatever it is has to be REALLY bad to make him cry, when this happens, he gets clingy and hugs whatever friend is closest for ages even though the hug makes him cry more.

• Cant remember half of what happens on his adventures because he has been hit on the head during pretty much all of them.

• His favourite food is probably either cherries or strawberries.

• His favourite drink is tea with the smallest droplet of milk known to man.

• Was the child that went, "But why?" (You know what im talking about)

• Dosent flirt much, but when he does, he DOES.

• Accidentally got drunk once because of Haddock and flirted with two women, but when he got sober, he found out that said "women" were unfortunately Chang and Haddock. (He never spoke to them for a day because he was rethinking his life chices after that. Chang was traumatized, and Haddock threatened to set him up on a date with Bianca if he done that to either of them again, but they forgave him after he apologised and they all agreed to forget about it. (Chang and Haddock are scared to have Tintin near alcohol to this day even though he doesn't drink much, that non-Tintinlike event just scarred them for life.))

• Scared of hippos, no reason, just scared of them.

I need to get me a partner like the Haddock men.

Stoick the Vast, that man, that chief of vikings, sees his wife and mother of his child after 20 years of separation. He finds out that she isn't dead like he believed, eaten by a dragon, she has been living and rescuing dragons. Who keep in mind was his enemy and the bane of his existence until 5 years before this moment when their son changed his mind.

Stoick has been kinda through it too. He has been leading a village, raising Hiccup on his own, and lets be honest Hiccup was definitely not an easy kid to raise, and combating the constant dragon raids on their home. All the while he has mourned the loss of his wife who should have been one of, if not his biggest, supports.

Realistically Stoick should have remarried if nothing more than an agreed marriage of convenience, but no he's loyal to the memory of his wife. He even has part of her armor made into a helmet to keep her close.

And after 20 years, after tracking down his wayward son, she's standing before him. Stoick is stunned, because it's a memory come back to life.

Valka is the one shouting begging and fully expecting Stoick to be angry, and to a degree he has a right to be. If this was five years earlier, back when Stoick confronted Hiccup after the disaster with the Monstrous Nightmare he probably would have shouted, probably would have let his anger take over.

But it's been five years since that fight with Hiccup. Stoick has learned, has grown, he has ridden and trained two of his own dragons. He has done what Valka thought he never could.

And you know what the first thing Stoick says to her after 20 years? "You're as beautiful as the day I lost you."

Oh gods Hiccup got his romantic nature from Stoick!

Now onto the younger Haddock.

Hiccup and Astrid are a better version of Stoick and Valka because they leaned to do the one thing that separated the older Haddock couple.

They learned to communicate.

Now this wasn't an easy road as we've been shown to us throughout the series. They have kept secrets from one another that has blown up in their faces. Hell their first lesson in communicating happened because Hiccup kidnapped Astrid.

But they are so much better for learning this lesson early. They are each other's biggest supports, if one is down to do some shit the other ain't that far behind. They don't hold each other back, if one fails the other one is right there by their side.

Their love is a nartual thing that is as easy and hard as breathing.

It's all so beautiful! The Haddock men are such romantics!

#stalka #hiccstrid #stoick haddock #stoick the vast #valka haddock #hiccup haddock #astrid hofferson #the haddock men love their wives #httyd #how to train your dragon #they're in love your honor

After all this time- I finally have a good ref for my Fallout New Vegas Courier 6: Riley Redmont Haddock. (But friends just call him "Red") AKA the nerdy human embodiment of anxiety.

+ some doodles of him with various companions I plan for him to have in my playthrough.

Riley is my timid, easily annoyed, anxiety-ridden mess of a wasteland wanderer. Dude has an affinity for robots, tinkering, inventing, repairing and general science nerdery. Poor guy is wrapped up in an absolute bullshit chain of events and is quietly losing his shit.

If you wanna know a little more about the dude, I'll leave more info under the cut. (I'd also be more than happy to answer any asks about the dude.)

Name: Riley Redmont Haddock

Age: Mid-30s

Pronouns: He/Him (Transmasc)

Sexuality: Gay/Ace

(Current) Voice Claim: Lin Manuel Miranda. Mainly just because of his voice as Fenton Crackshell Cabrera/Sheriff Marshall Cabrera from Ducktales 2017. That is, unless I find a better voice.

Personality: Timid and overwhelmingly anxious, and a bit easily irritated in the face of his new travels. Due to his affinity with tech, he tends to be more comfortable around robots than people. (At first, at least.) A bit near-sighted and stuck inside his own head, while still fiercely looks after people close to him. Over time in his adventures, he slowly develops into a more confident, collected, yet reckless person.

Bio:

Riley grew up being the child of a Mojave legend known as "The Scarlet Rider", a woman (named Ellie) famed as a masked vigilante who fought to help the people of the Mojave wastes as the stories would tell. But people rarely knew abot "Scarlet's little girl". (Riley had obviously not "cracked the egg" yet for a good while.) Growing up with a traveller and masked hero for a mother, he learned a lot of what formed him into the person he is. Being a decent shot, a skilled mechanic, and more.

But when in a tragic incident his mother disappears, presumed dead, Riley was then sought after and brought in by his estranged father. This man, however, wasn't exactly as noble as his mother. Him being a notorious crime boss of the Vegas area. Having to spend his teenage years as a pawn to a crime lord, certain events would lead to him running off at the age of 16.

Now with his father's men after him, and almost no one to turn to, Riley would travel across the Mojave wastes and other surrounding areas to find safety.

Young Riley ends up finding a group of travelling performers, who he spends his time with for some years. But after a tragic death in the group, the remaining members break apart- leaving Riley on his own again.

Riley starts further developing his skills in robotics where he finds his love for tinkering and repairs. His endless tinkering ends up in the creation of his closest companion, Buddy. A tiny companion robot made completely from scrap, but somehow harboring an endless rabid thirst for violence and wanton destruction. But due to his size, he's effectively harmless. And for a while, he's Riley's one close friend.

So over the years, he's gotten around the wasteland by keeping his head down and taking various jobs and roles. Scavenger, singer, mechanic, and many more.

To Riley, his position as a courier is just a temporary gig "to get me from here to there". He's never really been too attached to it. But with his latest gig, he didn't really have any idea what this seemingly insignificant job would be getting him into.

Because that fateful night with the poker chip and the man in the checkered suit- Well, it just changed everything to say the least.

After the shock from taking a nasty shot to the head wears off, Riley isn't looking for any petty revenge- but answers. Because he can tell something is deeply wrong. And he's just too damn curious to let it go.

Random Info:

Riley tends to be a bit of a "robot whisperer". He seems to become friendly with bots a lot easier than he does with other people. This is typically due to his repair skills, but he generally seems to socialize easier with robots. (Prior to the NV story at least.) For example, he tends to get along pretty well with Victor early in his journey. And the first real 'companion' he meets is ED-E.

As mentioned- prior to the events of the game, Riley has a connection/history with one of the companion characters. Raul Tejada was a close friend of Riley's mother Ellie. So as a kid, Riley grew with Raul as a sort of uncle-figure. After his mother disappearing and him being turned over to his father, they lost contact. After running away from his father, he would come across Raul again, but it wouldn't last for long before he would have to run again with his father's men searching for him. Sadly, they wouldn't meet again for many years until Riley comes across him imprisoned in Black Mountain.

Riley has no idea just how in high hell this happened, but he manages to form a decent relationship with The Kings. He can't explain why he's friends with them, it just... happened. And he's incredibly confused about the whole thing. The King lets him hang out with his adorable robo-dog, though, so he's not complaining.

He also tends to hang around the Followers of the Apocolypse on occasion after bringing ED-E to them. He just tends to chat around with the members- (Arcade in particular.) But he likes to fix any broken tech around, so nobody really complains.

Riley has a texan accent! He tends to hide it around people, but it tends to slip out when he's emotional. (Extremely angry, extremely happy/excited, you get the idea.) Or when he's around certain people, like close friends. As the story goes along, he tends to hide it less and less.

Riley has an interest in various pre-war topics. Specifically, pre-war fashion, pop culture, and music. He believes that if he was born before the war (or if the war never happened) he would be working in fashion. Namely, working in a bridal parlor.

With his additional background in music/performing, he knows a few instruments! Namely guitar, violin, and a little piano.

Hi just saw that you're answering I just keep seeing a running gag with tintin and captain still calling each other with vous rather than tu and many completely french people just say this shows they aren't that close and they're just simple friends not even best friends because only strangers or child adult kind of people call each other like that and that's on my nerves😂like dude after being in adventures or literally LIVING together how can they still call each other with formal you like when I read the french books it just ruins my mood,what do you think about this thing since it's their original talking doesn't it bother you?

Lmao this running gag is just one of the most fascinating ones to analyze. Come take a seat with me. We have a long ride.

First of all I have to clear up something. I don't know French and I haven't read the original French text. I know about the formal you being used between them thanks to other fans. I have read the English and Greek versions though. In English there is no obvious formality in their speech as there's only one you. In Greek however we do have the plural you being used to someone as a formal call and yes that is the way the text is translated (fun fact the Greek translation is direct translation from French and therefore many things have been kept faithful).

For me, the insistence of Tintin and Haddock on using formal you is absolutely fascinating, especially from Haddock's pov. Tintin, the gentleman and scout boy ever, is expected to use the formal you to an older man and Captain as a sign of respect. Haddock though doesn't have any reason to do so except maybe at the very start that Tintin is a stranger. And yet he keeps using it. Someone who doesn't know would say maybe the reason is that he is very well mannered. Captain Haddock. The man who invented a whole genre of cursing and can't control his mouth and has no idea of basic etiquette (he didn't kiss Bianca's hand even though Tintin had just did it). This man well mannered? Please. He is kind in a deeper level than the one of on the surface gestures and words but he is not the gentleman type.

So why is a man like Haddock always using the formal you to Tintin, even in mid scolding? Why is Tintin still using the formal you to Haddock, even after yelling at him? They have gone through so many stuff that most people would never experience, they are each other's closest companion, they have saved each other's life and put them on risk for the other, they have fought, disagreed, laughed, got drunk, heck they even live together and rarely separate from the other. Obviously they're friends, they love and care for each other, there can't be any doubt on that (and if someone has they must revisit the series asap or not talk about it again ever). And yet why? Why Tintin insists on keeping this distance in words? Why Haddock controls his mouth only when it's about addressing Tintin?

My first thought is because of huge respect for each other. Respect that just became bigger and bigger the more they got to know each other and spend time together. For Tintin Captain Haddock is someone worth of respect especially because he found the power to stand up and move forward after reaching his lowest point. For Haddock Tintin deserves all the respect in the world for his character and heroic deeds and the young age is only one more factor for earning his respect. I don't think Haddock wants ever to make Tintin think he worths less than respect and Tintin seems to believe the same and mostly following Haddock's example (I think it would be unusual and weird for the younger to start addressing informally the older who keeps using formalities).

In a way with formal you it's like they're saying, even though so entangled to each other's lives and having seen each other's worst and best moments, "hey I still respect you, my admiration isn't gone", isn't it?! It would be kinda illogical to be translated to "hey don't get too close, you're an acquaintance" after everything, wouldn't be?!

Let's take into consideration the contradiction between words and actions. In the series we have seen it played a lot mostly for comedy but maybe it is used more than that. Tintin and Haddock talk a lot but not that much about their thoughts or feelings and even then the words are limited. Their actions are the ones that speak volumes. And I think this is something that both recognize to each other and accept.

Let's take for example these moments:

The first is from Red Rackham's Treasure and the second from The Picaros. Tintin, although a journalist and a man with his way with words, doesn't talk about himself directly. He doesn't admit "I worry about you" or "I missed you", neither at the start of their friendship nor after a long time. He says "someone does" and "let's say", like the person with the problem who asks for advice saying "I have a friend of a friend who". It's like Tintin is direct with his words when it's not about him and if he wants to express something he prefers to put a distance or vague essence to it. From this perspective, it's not that weird that he prefers to keep the formal you. He knows that Haddock gets it and respects that need of his.

And let's see this too:

This is one of my favourite examples of their communication because it drives me crazy. NEITHER OF THEM IS ALLOWING THEMSELVES TO TALK MORE. Haddock is more direct than Tintin, using I at least, but he too doesn't say "I am coming with you because I am worried" but "I thought yada yada since I'm here". I really don't know who from the two is more direct or better at this communicating feelings and thoughts as both are avoiding to do this in two different ways. But I know that they understand each other's intentions and what is unsaid in one basic level at least. Mostly thanks to the actions. Tintin doesn't understand what is Haddock blabbering about but he sees he's here and already accepted the fact that he will follow him. Haddock tries to understand what Tintin means with "let's say I was missing you" but he sees that Tintin came although he didn't want to and there's must be an important reason for it.

They both communicate with actions and gestures, heck even with just the eyes (in Flight 714), rather with the words. In the first album together Haddock sends a bone for a gift to Milou, later Tintin thinks of Haddock for the ship model and refuses any offer so he can gift it to him. Tintin serves Haddock coffee, Haddock invites him wherever, Tintin's first instinct is to protect Haddock, Haddock's never to leave Tintin alone etc. Their relationship is more deep and complex than simple friends and you must be blind not to see that.

I think seeing their bond in the traditional and commonly accepted format of friendships or even relationships undermines it. For them saying with words what they feel isn't the most important and they don't demand it from the other. Tintin doesn't expect Haddock to get straight to the point but he understands his needs and feelings and acts according to them (like how Tintin tries to help Haddock in Castafiore Emerald) . Haddock doesn't demand anything from Tintin, even less to talk in a way he doesn't feel comfortable but he always takes him seriously and into consideration his feelings and needs, especially when he doesn't realize them himself (like when Tintin was shot in the rocket station and Haddock insisted on staying despite his protests in his good manners).

In their own unique way they manage to communicate and connect and the use of formal you only highlights this, their belief that actions speak louder and clearer than many words. As they don't expect from each other to be direct, we should not do too. As they put all the attention on actions and showing their feelings, we should do too.

Tintin and Haddock will never tell each other "you're my best friend" or "I care about you". They will act upon it and won't demand anything from the other. And remember the only time they were direct to their thoughts was in the rope scene in Tibet. So, yeah, let's stay on their regular way of communicating.

#thanks for the ask!#i hope i managed to make you see it in a different way and not let it ruin your mood reading the french from now on #anyway this is my reading and my personal reading #hope these long answers aren't tiring #tintin #captain haddock #archibald haddock #the adventures of tintin

― Little Pest-!

[ For the people that are waiting for the drawings or memes, plz wait a bit more, My phone is too fucked up rn ]

Tintin and GN!Reader taking care of a Child

It all starts with a quiet day in Brussels, exactly on October 3 on a cold but calm morning, enough for the two to go together to have a coffee at that time

— I think I should visit my aunt, she has only just arrived in Brussels but she has been busy working

You speak with a soft and calm tone while drinking coffee to keep yourself active, Tin shows curiosity when hearing about your family, he really hadn't heard you talk much about them so he thinks it's a good idea to go and meet your family.

— Sounds perfect, anyway Haddock said he would be with Calculus taking care of his new roses

Tin spoke in a kind way but he really seemed enthusiastic, he wanted to make a good impression with your family.

The two arrive at the door of the house after a while, you knock firmly on the door……

The door is opened by a child of just 10 years old, who showed a grimace of disgust when he saw Tin, obviously he recognized you instantly and let you in but after you passed he closed the door on Tin in the house.

(Insert the name of the little monkey, idk, i hate that child, so im gonna put C!__ when the child's name is necessary)

— C!___-! What are you doing? That is my boyfriend!

You quickly open the door showing Tin's face, somewhat surprised by the child's behavior but also somewhat irritated although he does not want to accept it, he quickly manages to calm down and be more friendly because obviously he does not want to be rude to the child.

The child seems upset that you let the carrot head into his house, acting angry and obviously expressing his displeasure

— Why did you have to choose this red head as your boyfriend? Obviously you gave him a little scolding for being so rude to your boyfriend, so you got a little closer to him and told him.

—You shouldn't treat people who come to visit like that, Tintin didn't do anything to you, we just came to say hello to my aunt.

The boy found this news even worse, so he tried to pretend like he didn't care in the slightest, but the minute you left Tin alone, the boy returned from his room.

— You look strange, why are you so ugly and baby-faced?

Tin is slightly stoic about the situation, trying to remain calm and collected.

— I don't have a baby face.

Tin tries to look for you to get the boy to stop bothering him and end his patience right now, the boy is obviously still making mocking faces behind him.

— That's right, look for your partner like the fearful person you are.

The boy told him in a mocking manner while he was bothering Tin, trying to climb into his arms.

Tin finally thought that the boy was going to stop bothering him but he was wrong, with the boy being in his arms…. He pulls Tin's hair, making Tin quickly grab the boy by the hand to stop him from doing that

— You should behave better with someone older than you.

Tin spoke irritably, slightly biting his tongue to calm himself down a bit and quickly taking the child out of his arms making the child cry.

You were in the kitchen trying to cook something to eat for everyone while they wait for your aunt, when you hear the crying you quickly see what is happening.

— What happened??

You speak in a somewhat upset manner when you see the child crying and Tin with a slightly upset face

Tin takes a breath to calm down while you try to calm the child but he wouldn't stop crying.

— He hasn't stopped bothering me since we arrived.

You look at the boy with an irritated face upon hearing that while the boy quickly walks away knowing that you obviously knew the truth.

— Don't worry, sweetie…. My aunt said she won't be long to get home

Slowly you approach him to hug him in a friendly way, you can feel how his body slightly stops being tense and he tries to be calm, accompanying you to the kitchen and helping you cook.

You can see the boy peeking his head out from the door frame, you really didn't pay much attention.

After a few moments, Tin's hand slowly slides from your shoulder to your hip, caressing that part lovingly and giving you kisses on the cheek until C!__ pours water on both of them with a squirt gun to make them dry. separate

— Okay, I've had enough.

Tin quickly approaches C!___, grabbing him by the collar of his shirt as if he were a cat, sitting him in a baby chair and putting the belt on him so he doesn't get out.

— Stay here.

Tin speaks coldly and quickly returns to your side, the two of you hear the door of the house opening.

Finally your aunt had arrived and the child tried to victimize himself by crying, at first it helped but you quickly explained what happened

bt: The child got kicked out from his house (jk) Sorry for no posting anything in a month, i was on a trip with my parents to have a breath from the problems but now i feel worse im sorry if i don't know how to make Tintin be more canon

A few of my HTTYD headcanons

Astrid really likes to sing but objectively doesn't have the best singing voice - Hiccup still loves to hear her and, despite not being the biggest fan of singing himself; Sometimes, when it's just the two of them, he'll start humming some tune and encourages her to join him

If Ruffnut had grown up as an only child, she'd be the most closed off, moody, and infuriatingly intelligent kid her age

Tuffnut becomes everyone's favorite uncle in the future

Snotlout has a major crush on Eret ever since he started living on Berk, and the antagonism he shows the man in Httyd3 is Snotlout not wanting to admit it to himself

In a perfect world, Snotlout's "arc" in Httyd3 would not be trying to flirt with Valka (and failing horribly) while one-sidedly fighting Eret for her, but trying to flirt with Eret (and failing horribly) while fighting all of Eret's fangirls for him

Tuffnut is a masochist and Ruffnut a sadist and for a long time neither really knew what to make of it

It's a weird headcanon, maybe, but Ruff is just constantly hitting Tuff in RoB and my messed up brain came up with this

Gobber is Hiccup's 2nd parent and in a modern universe, Gobber would live right next door to the Haddocks and basically parent Hiccup while Stoick was away on important trips

He'd be the person that'd go to all of Hiccup school's "teacher-parent conferences" (or whatever they're called in english) and he'd try to help Hiccup with homework all the time (much to poor, well-done Hiccup's homework sadness )

He'd also be the one to prepare Hiccup's lunch and his cupcakes for the preschool's bake sale (he and Hiccup baked them together) were everyone's favorites

Just; parent Gobber = my happiness, basically

Fishlegs would be the kind of person to stop talking to someone for a few days because they had killed an "innocent bug, you monster!!!"

Tuffnut loves to paint his nails, and even opened a saloon on the Edge at some point

It took the longest time for Astrid to let Tuff paint her nails, but once she did, she loved them

She doesn't usually indulge herself in very "feminine" stuff, so the nails always leave her with this giddy feeling, and make her feel really pretty

Everyone knows when Astrid has just done her nails because she's that much careful around everything but also offers to bring everyone stuff

Hiccup finds it adorable and always compliments her on them

She glows every time Hiccup comments on her nails

Astrid has a hard time asking Tuff to re-do them every time she wrecks them mid-training though, so she's eternally grateful that Tuffnut goes to her, demanding to re-do them each time

I've had these saved up for way too long now, time to set them freeeee

he’s the adult supervision, he’s the voice of reason, he’s a cringefail king, it’s Captain Haddock! Quite a few people asked for a timeline post for Haddock after I posted one of Tintin.

I found the whole idea of the Haddock family curse to be very interesting, and the implications behind it to be pretty dark... cw for alcoholism and childhood abuse. Let me know if you need anything tagged.

To figure out the timeline the evidence for Haddock’s age I found was in an animated adaptation of Explorers on the Moon where Haddock mentions he has around forty years of sailing experience. I doubt he was running around on ships as a newborn so that places his age during the canon comics at around 60ish, give or take a few years, which in my timeline places his childhood during the late Victorian era!

Left to right, top to bottom:

Child - Archibald Haddock had a pretty rough childhood and family life. The legacy of the “Haddock family curse” weighs heavily on him, and so does the alcoholism that runs generationally. His father is often drunk, taking his anger and frustration out on Archibald. Fully believing the family curse, Archibald’s father drills the idea that he is destined for failure into his head.

Archibald’s only respite is his grandfather, who tells him stories of Sir Francis Haddock and other tall tales from the sea. His grandfather also would take him out on fishing trips, the lochs and the sea being his refuge.

Teenager - It’s the 1880s and Archibald is left aimless after his grandfather passes away, passing the time by hiding from his father and drinking during the day. He fully believes he has no real future and lets himself get swept up by whatever will come along next.

Young Adult - Archibald decides to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps and becomes a sailor, feeling at home at sea. He cleans up somewhat after befriending George Chester as the two train on the same merchant vessel. Chester drags a reluctant Archibald along into all kinds of crazy antics, with Archibald wanting to stay on the straight and narrow.

Archibald is drafted during the First World War, serving in the Grand Fleet. He is stationed at the Orkney and Shetland Islands with Chester.

Canon - After the war Archibald relapses on his addiction again, but is able to hold onto work in the merchant fleet. He eventually becomes a captain of a merchant vessel where his mental health issues are taken advantage of in the Crab with the Golden Claws.

Seeing his crew mutiny, kidnap (and attempt to murder) a boy on his ship was a major wake up call - Haddock is now imbued with a sense of responsibility for Tintin (even if Tintin seems to handle things better than Haddock!). He doesn’t understand what Tintin sees in him but he’ll be damned if he proves him wrong. He’s not above calling him an idiot when the time is right though.

Post Canon - After Tintin loses his job Haddock does his best to support him. He uses his wealth to further causes he believes in, donating money to artist collectives and scientific research that was repressed by fascist governments. Before Belgium even joins the Second World War he and the Marlinspike team proactively go out and foil various Nazi plots. Marlinspike Hall is firebombed by the Nazis in retaliation, but after the war Haddock funds various housing cooperative projects. Coming from a working class background he hasn’t forgotten the hardships a lot of people face.

Elderly - At this point Haddock is secure in his found family. He’s been living with his partner Ramo Nash, and has taken up various arts and crafts as hobbies. Looking back, he never expected to be a father, but is incredibly proud of Tintin. He never officially adopts him as a part of him still fears the family curse (plus they both agree “Haddock” as a name definitely does not suit Tintin)!

~Child Of The Storm~

Nikolai Lantsov x OC

Image by - @brokendreamtale2

Warnings- none

A/N- FIRST CONVERSATION RAHHHH also i love my girl so much shes such an icon. Anddd let me know if you'd like to be added or removed from the taglist!

Taglist- @pansexualwitchwhoneedstherapy @sirisuorionblack @nadeleine123n

Ch-23 ~Estranged soul~

That night, they’d been invited to dine with Sturmhond in his quarters. The meal was served by the steward, a servant of impeccable manners, who was several years older than anyone else on the ship. No matter the presentation, the food was better than Anaya had in weeks, fresh bread, roasted haddock, pickled radishes, and a sweet iced wine, which she drank more than she'd anticipated.

Sturmhond mentioned the shipment of arms he was bringing back to Ravka. Then he seemed to perk up and they spent the rest of the meal talking about guns, grenades, and exciting ways to make things explode. A kind of conversation Anaya had no intention of joining. Thankfully, none of the crew members seemed to pay much attention to her, except for the captain, the boy seemed to keep his eye on everyone.

She decided to inspect her surroundings. Everything was gleaming wood and polished brass. The desk was littered with charts, the pieces of a dismembered sextant, and strange drawings of the hinged wing of a mechanical bird, just what was this boy planning to do? The table glittered with Kerch porcelain and crystal. The wines bore labels in a strange language.

After what felt like an eternity, they all bid their farewells and retired for the day.

..............................................................

Anaya spent half of the night tossing and turning in the hammock, she didn't seem to have any hint of sleep despite the exhaustion. She noticed Alina and Tamar silently creeping out of the quarters, but she chose to ignore it. At least for a while. After a while, she could feel the ship rocking much violently than it had been. She quickly pulled her kefta on and went outside.

A massive burst of light erupted from somewhere on the ship. Anaya rushed to see that it had been Alina. The girl had worn the sea whip's fetter. The power grew more violent, but the she didn't seem to stop. People began to shout and bellow, but it had no effect on her.

"Alina" Mal called out, but she did not respond

"Alina!" he suddenly wrapped his arms around her. He pulled her back with a hard grip. She finally released the light, revealing the night sky once again.

She drew the last scraps of light together and wove them into a soft sheen that pulsed over the deck of the ship.

Sturmhond and the others were crouched by the railing, their mouths open in awe. Anaya was surprised to find herself having a similar reaction.

Mal still had the girl wrapped in his arms.

Mal,” she said quietly. “Mal, I can’t breathe.”

Slowly, he opened his eyes and looked down at her. She finally dropped her hands, the light disappearing entirely. He then eased his grip on her. Tolya lit a lamp, and the others got to their feet.

Sturmhond dusted off the gaudy folds of his teal coat. A girl that might have been a Fabrikator, looked sickly, she might've been the one to secure the amplifier.

“Well, Summoner,” said Sturmhond, a slight wobble to his voice, “you certainly know how to put on a show.”

Mal bracketed Alina's face with his hands. He seemed to kiss her wherever he could reach, then drew her tight against him once again.

“You’re all right?” he asked.

“Yes,” she replied.

Without saying a word to anyone, Anaya went back to Tamar's quarters

.....................................................................

Anaya shuffled in her hammock. She usually had trouble sleeping, but it seemed to be worse tonight. Se silently crept out of Tamar's quarters in just her shirt and pants of the same colour. She went near one of the railings and leaned, placing her arms on it. This part of the ship was almost empty apart from the few of the crew members who'd been on watch.

The cold salty air brushed on her skin as she closed her eyes. The sea had a different sense of calmness and peace that was nowhere else to be found.

She was still baffled by the fact that she was alive, still. She herself couldn't believe what she'd done back at the whaler. Something she never knew she was capable of.

Her trail of thoughts was disrupted when she sensed silent footsteps behind her. She quickly readied herself to form an icicle, but stopped herself remembering she couldn't possibly be attacked on the ship. She turned around to see Sturmhond making his way to her.

She turned to look at the sea once again as the boy approached her. He leaned against the railing alongside her, and finally spoke. "I've been meaning to talk to you"

She looked at him raising an eyebrow, "Why?"

"I wanted to thank you, for helping us back on the whaler. What you did was really unexpected" He smiled, his features gleaming in the moonlight

"I didn't even expect that myself"

The boy let out a small chuckle

There was a short pause before he spoke again, "Why did the Darkling made you his tracker?" He asked, "How did you know about the creature's whereabouts?"

"There's much you don't know about me"

"I think we can change tha-"

"And I would very much prefer to keep it that way" she cut him off

"I respect that" he pursed his lips

After a long moment of silence, Anaya spoke "There's a lot I don't know about you either. I mean, how do I know that you won't take us to the fold and throw us offboard then feed us to the volcra whom you might be taming the whole time?" She shrugged

"Don't worry darling, I promise I won't do that. Besides, you're too beautiful to be fed off to Volcra" he winked at her, making her roll her eyes

"Do pirates not sleep at night?"

"A- Privateer" the boy threw his arms in exasperation. "And we do, but usually not when there are guests around"

"Alright" Anaya responded, a corner of her mouth slightly turning up. She left the deck, leaving the privateer all by himself

Because we need Mrs Finch/Mme Pinson appreciation

Honestly love the trope of female landlords/housekeepers who have chaotic tenants and instead of kicking them out are ridiculous mother figures who act as if they don't care but in reality they do (Mrs Hall and Mrs Hudson, looking at you.)

So, as far as we know with Tintin, his only parental figure is Haddock (If you're not a haddotin shipper) which is great and all but who is his mother figure?

Mrs Finch. 100%.

She honestly seems like the kind of person who immediantly takes the teenage reporter under her wing when he first moves in and occasionally makes him a cup of tea, but mostly leaves him to his own devices, until he comes back from Moscow with a concussion, mild hypothermia, several bruises and scratches and a rather sore backside from when a bullet grazed it.

Protective Mother Mode is immediantly activated and she drags him into her cramped kitchen, throws a blanket over his shoulders, puts the kettle on, slams the first aid kit on the table and begins to fuss over him while scolding him for taking "such horrendous risks, even if it's for work" and that his employer is "an absolute brute for sending a CHILD to the SOVIET UNION what in HEAVEN'S NAME were they THINKING? No, Tintin, I don't care that you're famous, you're still a child."

After a good while of patching and swabbing and plastering Tintin is all bandaged up with a steaming cup of tea in hand (Snowy was fed too,) and he spends ages relaying his adventures to the woman, smiling sheepishly with every shake of her head and muttered exclamations. The conversation then changes and turns and eventually Tintin finds his eyes growing heavier. She shoos him up the stairs with a hot water bottle and makes sure he goes to bed, telling him that his report can wait for tomorrow.

It's a common recurrence after Tintin's adventures. Sometimes Mrs Finch brings the tea up to his flat, sometimes they have it in her small kitchen. Either way, it's always comforting and Tintin finds it a nice way to unwind. Even though Tintin eventually moves to Marlinspike, he finds himself wandering down to 26 Labradour Road for a cuppa and a conversation.

We Know Tintin Is a Reckless Bastard, but Why Is He Like That?

Writing shit because my computer is being fixed.

So, I wanted to talk about a topic that isn't being discussed enough by the Tintin (and haddotin) fandom: Tintin's self-destructive behaviour.

This (young) man works as a reporter and lives in a flat in which he barely stays because he's always busy travelling around the world, following any kind of danger that occurs as if he was willingly submitting to his danger kink.

We had multiple occasions to learn about the fact that he's totally reckless and gets shot at, shots back, gets into fights, gets kidnapped, threatened and so on, only to then get out of the situation (whatever it is) nonchalantly.

All the fans seems to agree on the fact that he's probably been like this since he was a child: he was probably the type of kid to come hom with skinned knees and bloody knuckles after beating the shit out of kids who made fun of him for his red hair (just to bring a scenario into this). He is athletic and knows how to move on roofs, ships, planes and around dangerous people, meaning that he for sure has put himself into so many situations to basically being able to improvise the right behaviour at the right moment.

He's also able to do shit like this:

So, where does all of this come from?

My first guess, as a psychology student that can't help but analysing any character at this point, was that growing up he barely had something certain in his life.

I don't necessarily mean that his family was poor (you're free to think about it the way you want, but I personally Headcanon Tintin's family as belonging in the middle class of society), but what I had in mind was something uncertain coming from the emotional sphere of a family: he might come from a dysfunctional family in which either the parents kept fighting on a regular basis, or the love of his parents towards him was measured basing on his success and worth at their eyes (or also both scenarios); Tintin is a person that values his worth basing on his success or failure a lot, and it's a taught behaviour.

(This can be seen in the scene of Haddock's emotional speech).

Also, before he met Haddock he went on adventures with Milou and Milou only (Snowy); he's always had friends, but has never established a strong relationship with them: he's afraid of rejection and avoids it by not establishing strong connections with other human beings; his adventures are being used as a way to forget the fact that he's alone and that everyone will leave him in the end.

So does all of the danger that occurs to him: danger gives adrenaline to the body, which prevents the brain from thinking about anything that's not what is happening at the moment.

Basically, if Haddock has whiskey, Tintin has danger.

In a very dark view of the entire issue, danger can be seen as a way of seeking indirect suicide: every sane person with a bit of self-preservation instinct would stay away from all of those problems, but Tintin is a person that looks for self-destruction but just can't destroy himself with his own hands. He needs an external help.

Then, it came WWI (following Headcanons he should have been ten or something when war started).

Together with the dysfunctional family theory, war brought Tintin into a state of mind in which he needs to be cool in any situation otherwise he loses (or dies). This is the main reason why he's unable to lose his shit in front of danger or problems, because one wrong move or one sign of weakness by himself and he has lost.

It's something that in dysfunctional families occurs pretty often (anything can be used against you) and war isn't soft with humans.

He's also probably very uncomfortable with his own emotions as well; he shows anger, irritation and curiousity, but we've rarely seen him scared or in panic. He looks like he always knows how to solve the situation. He probably has lots of fears and phobias we know nothing about (I'll advance an Headcanon about a fear of dark, sudden sounds and occasionally fire) because he bottles everything up.

Tintin for sure has attachment issues and anxiety, because the only very close friends he has are Milou, Haddock and Chang (with Dupont and Dupond he's got a formal relationship more than anything else).

But why do these friendships work for him?

Milou: he's a dog and Tintin doesn't need to worry about his judgement;

Haddock: Tintin might have been worried about being abandoned after their first adventure together, but as Haddock kept accompanying him, he grew less and less worried about it;

Chang: they see eachother rarely and Tintin doesn't really have to worry about his judgement.

I forgot the point of this post.

In general, Tintin is pretty reckless due to trying to escape the belief that everyone will leave him behind at some point, or would stop loving him if he makes mistakes (which brought him to always try and be the best in every situation).

But he's also very curious: you can literally see his eyes light up with wonder when he learns about something new, and his curiosity is what gets him in all of those situations as well (for example, he learns about the Unicorn because he's curious about it).

That's it, I think. That's it.

NEW BERK | HTTYD FAN-FICTION

NEW BERK: A FAN-FICTION SERIES

Title: Your Life is Made Up of The Everyday

Characters: Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, Astrid Haddock, Fishlegs Ingerman, Snotlout Gary Jorgenson, Spitelout Jorgenson and introducing, Zephyr Haddock.

Author's note: Hey guys I'm so proud of my first little fict on HTTYD. The timeline is set after the movie, including after they met Toothless and his family. I have been writing a lot about father-son relationship and was tinkering around with the idea of Hiccup as a dad. Hope you like it. Wishing you guys a wonderful weekend reading!

Premise:

Its been 5 years since Hiccup, Astrid and their children went to meet Toothless at the tip of the Hidden World. Zephyr is now older. An intelligent, strong-willed viking pre-teen. With her father's brains and mother's brawn, she traverses the great island for new discoveries. Unfortunately, there is only so much to discover within the thickets and forests of New Berk. Things have fallen stale, and the child wonders if that is all there is about the world.

YOUR LIFE IS MADE-UP OF THE EVERY DAY

It is a cold, but sunny Wednesday afternoon. A knot welled in the middle of Hiccup's forehead, swelling into a migraine as Snotlout, once again insists that the new Storehouse be named in honour of his father.

"It is the right thing to do and you know it!" Snotlout says accusingly. "Snotlout, for the last time, we don't pay tribute like this unless the person has passed on."

"SO?" Snotlout replies indignantly.

"SO?! YOUR FATHER IS NOT DEAD! He's standing right there," Hiccup's hands gesture towards Spitelout, aged and white haired. "Oh, don't listen to him Boy-O. He's changed a lot since becoming chief. Pride can overcome a man of weak consti-tu-tion," Spitelout spewed, taking Snotlout by the shoulder as they left the Great Hall.

"What? No! That's not, what - Oh gods," Hiccup lets out, rubbing his forehead with his thumb and index finger. "What's next on the agenda Fishlegs?"

"Well, the Timbermans are wondering whether you can officiate their son's wedding this Friday?"

"Which one?"

"Jason."

"Didn't I officiate his wedding last week?"

"No, that was Jazon. Zen. With a "Z"."

"Why would they name their sons the same name?"

"Its not, if you really think about it. Not technically. At least," Fishleg mumbled. The knot spreads to the back of Hiccup's neck. "Yeah, yeah," he relents, shoulders slumped, "put me down for it."

Just then, a huge beam at the entrance of the Great Hall cracks. Hiccup hears it. His head turns to the sound. "Do you hear that?" he asks. "Hear what?" Fishlegs wonders. Instinctively, Hiccup yells "Get out of the way," to the family walking towards the beam. Grabbing a long staff, Hiccup quickly intercepts the falling beam with it stabilising the structure.

"OK, EVERYONE OUT OF THE GREAT HALL! NOW!"

"What happened?" Astrid said, panting. She had come from the armour mason's shed to the Great Hall when she saw the commotion. "The beam gave way," Hiccup said, studying the rotten wood.

"You see here? This is where the woodmites bit through the stem. They've eaten all way through the bark! I told you this would happen. Didn't I tell you this would happen? We need to apply the Funnel Glue to drive them away. The woods dry. When was the last time the Funnel Glue was applied. When?" he said getting up and looking around for answers.

Astrid and Fishlegs tried not to make eye contact. "Whose responsibility was it to apply the glue?" he asks. Astrid looked guilty.

Hiccup sighs, "Zephyr."

"Where is she?" he says, storming out of the hall. Astrid runs after him. "You know where she is."

"This is irresponsible of her. This is very irresponsible of her. She knows the danger of woodmites. After the crashing of Bucket's Barn last summer. She knows the danger, I've told her many times," he rants. Astrid nods. "She knows. I know she knows because when I asked her if she did, she said she heard me."

"Well..." Astrid hummed, he didn't hear her. "That's it I need to say something." Astrid grabs his arm. "I know what you're gonna say," he claimed.

"Well, then let me say it anyways. She's young -"

"Young? I was young once too, but I did my chores as I was told. We all did. Even the Twins. Albeit they could've done it better, but we did everything we could to help the community. I didn't say anything when she didn't take out the trash. I didn't say anything when failed to water the community garden and we didn't have cabbages for four weeks. But, this is too much Astrid, I need to say something now. I'm putting my foot down."

"Ya done?"

"Not completely, but go on," he said, arms folded.

"She's going through something Hiccup. Can't you see? Don't you recognise it? That sullen boredom. Small island syndrome. You had it? I see it in her eyes. She going through the same thing you went through, and what she needs now, is not a lecture, what she needs now? Is her father."

God I hate it when she's right, Hiccup said inside. "And you know I'm right," Astrid replied confidently. He rolls his eyes. She was right. "Fine. I'll go find her."

Blade in hand, Zephyr attacked a bush "TAKE THAT!" she challenged it, slicing off its branches "It might be small, but never underestimate a sharpened blade!"

"HAI-YAH, YAH! YAH! YAH!"

"Wow, you really showed that bush," Hiccup said, coming from behind her. He gave her a gentle smile. "What did I do now?" she murmured, shoulders slumped.

"What? What's with the third degree? Can't a father watch his daughter completely annihilate an inanimate shrub?" Zephyr smiles. "Of course he can, it's just. Whenever you come see, there's always something to tell me, and its not always good news."

Hiccup recalled feeling the same with his own father once. That on the most times his father sat him down "to talk" it was more of a one-sided directive than a two-way conversation. "Have you always felt this way?" he asks.

"Not always. But, more so recently, yes."

"Well, you're wrong. Because today, I'm here to see what you're up to."

"Really?"

"Yeah! Anything you want to do."

"Don't you have to work?"

"Your mother will deal with it. Between you and me, I let her wear the pants once and awhile. Good for morale," he whispers.

"Sure you do Dad," she replies, cheekily.

"Hey, what does that mean!" Zephyr lets out a slight giggle. "Come here missy!" Hiccup catches his daughter and places her on his shoulders. She falls into uncontrollable fits of laughter and Hiccup's heart swells three times its usual size. The knot in his head and neck melts.

He has grown bigger in ten years while, his daughter, smaller in size than most children are (as he was) could still sit on her father's shoulders. "Now tell me, what have you found?"

She showed him Lars Creek. A body of water Isla Ingerman named after her great uncle Lars. She then brought him up stream where they found huge conifer trees, and pointed to the one she wanted to have and decorate for Snoggletog. "I marked it with an Z, that's my initial," she said proudly "the other kids know not to touch it. Or else," she held up her tiny blade in defence.

"Oh, I see that," he encouraged.

She then took him up the high hill and showed him a view of the village from it. "That's where I look to know you're coming to find me," she says "I'll pass through those pines and into the thickets by a shortcut to reach the stone you always see me on. Just so you know where I'll be."

"Wow, this view. I've never seen New Berk like this. In this light."

"You've never had the time."

"Yeah, you're right. I've been neglecting you," he admitted.

"Nah, it's alright. It's my fault to. I've been avoiding you too."

"Me? Why?"

"Because I know that I've been slacking behind my chores, and well... the less I saw you, the less I felt guilty about it."

Hiccup then realised, she could see the Great Hall from here. She could see, in particular, the entrance of the Great Hall now fallen and lying on the stony pavement. She knew that it fell. She knew why.

"You've really had this place figured out, I'll give you that," he decided to say instead of giving her lecture on Funnel Glue.

"Dad?"

"Yeah?"

"Uncle Fishlegs said that we used to ride dragons. He said that we don't anymore because it was safer for them to live in the Hidden World. But I just can't help but feel..."

"Yeah?"

"Like, maybe that was a mistake. What if, we need dragons and its better for us to have them? Like, life would be so much more interesting than... than..."

"Than this?" her father continued.

"Yeah."

"You know Zeph. I was in your shoes too."

"How could you be? You got to ride a Night Fury. I doubt you know what boredom feels like."

"Yeah, but before I rode one, I was like any kid on Berk. I was just like you too. I had my chores. I rummaged and scouted the forests. Marked my trees. I did almost everything you have. And then one day, the adventure found me."

"BUT I WANT TO HAVE AN ADVENTURE NOW! I WANT TO BUILD A LIFE WORTH LIVING!"

"Woah! Woah there," Hiccup laughs. "You're only 10 my dear. You have your whole life to build."

"I just wanna be like you Dad. I wanna go on adventures like you and mom did. I wanna be a great leader too. A great warrior like mom."

"And you will be," he said, taking his daughter by the hand "Zeph, I know what it feels like to want more. Wishing that I could push the invisible walls on this island and walk away from it. Fly away from it. But your life is made up of the every day. Whatever you choose to do, it reflects on whatever happens to you in the future. As a kid, mom practiced every morning, her backflips, cartwheels, sword-fightings. You still see her do it now. I used to have to practice flying dragons. It took years to study them, and even with all the knowledge I have, I'm still learning. Things takes time. And the best part about you, is, you have so much more of it."

"We all have to do mundane things in preparation for the greater things to come, you know?"

Zephyr nodded. "Let's get back. It's getting late," Hiccup says getting up. The town was quiet, and empty. It was supper time. The sun had set, and the moon painted the village light blue. They were three blocks down to their home. Zephyr could see her mother setting the table through the window and Nuffink jumping up and down helping her. She took her father's hand and squeezed it.

Hiccup held on to it tightly. All said and done, he loved his daughter, more than anything else and he wanted her to know that he is there for her, in all her good and all her bad, trusting that she will indeed, find her way someday.

"Hey dad?"

"Yeap," Hiccup said, his other hand pressed against their house door, about to push it open.

"I forgot to put Funnel Glue on the pillars of the Great Hall."

"Is that so?" he replied, smiling "Well, then, something for us to look into tomorrow morning."

END NOTE:

So, I did it! Ha-ha. If anyone is willing to share their drawings of an older Hiccup / Astrid and Zephyr, feel free to do so. The post has no drawings, because I can't draw and I didn't want to take from googled sources because they don't always pin the original creator.

So if you have any you wanna share, feel free to reblog the post with your characters in mind. I might reach out to use some of your work in the future if this Fan Fict actually becomes a series.

I took liberties and named Fishlegs and Ruffnut's daughter Isla Ingerman. Thought it sounded pretty. Also, Lar's in an homage to Ruff and Tuff's actual uncle they mention in Episode 13 - When Lightning Strikes, Season 1 (Riders of Berk).
