okay spill. rotisserie chicken esswulf tag. who is who usually i can TELL
The perfect thing about esswulf is that they both do the biting. Wulf is more aggressive, but Essek has the sharper teeth. In this particular case, I think Essek is the rotisserie chicken, because Wulf is about the brutality, while Essek is more precise. Essek doesn't black out and destroy, he plans and executes.

‘You think this isn’t some kind of shock for me too?! Hiccup, I am old, I have seen a lot in my time, but I have never, ever seen anything like this.’ Lips parting momentarily, she shook her head, looking back up to Hiccup. ‘I apologize, I shouldn’t have been so harsh. I do believe you, Hiccup, and I believe you have that girls best interests at heart. You get her back home, okay?’
“I know that, m’ not stupid.” She was just surprised that he was actually following those rules; at home, people didn’t care about all that. “But does it have to be her? I don’t like her, she’s scary, she doesn’t talk, and it hurt really bad when she put that stuff on it…”
“It doesn’t? That’s what I always thought… that’s what people at home told me…” She nodded, squeezing his hand. “I know. Thank you Hiccup, no one has ever helped me like this before…”
“How soon? I don’t wanna wait that long… It would’ve felt better right now if she didn’t put that stuff on it or touch it…”
“I- Really? You don’t have t’ do that anymore… you’re probably upset ‘cause I made you carry me back and I got scared of Toothless…”
She gave a small sigh, but reluctantly picked up the fork and took a bite.
That made her uncomfortable, and she shifted awkwardly in her seat, avoiding Hiccups gaze. “I’m not supposed to tell anyone,” she replied, a small bit of shame shining through in her voice.
Hiccup looked down, knowing Gothi was right, it was unheard of, what was going on with Danny, however this switch was made.
"Thank you, Gothi. I'm sorry, too, I should've brought her here right away. I'll get her home, keep her safe."
Hiccup shook his head. "Stupid? You're far from it, actually... And, no, Gothi gave me instructions for either Astrid or my mom to change your bandaging once a day, whoever you're more comfortable with. Now, I know you're not ready to meet my mom yet, so will you be alright with Astrid?"
Hiccup shook his head again, speaking gently. "No, not with something that severe." His expression fell, hearing no one had ever helped her that way before. She was only seven. How heartless were these hunters, to not administer medical help to children? "I'm sorry to hear that, you should have received more help, long before now, but...I'm glad I can help."
"The sooner you drink that tea," he said, pointing to the steaming mug in front of her, "the faster you'll feel better. The salves and creams she put on your back will help those burns to heal faster, so I know they hurt, but the other applications shouldn't as much, since it'll be doing its job."
"What? Why would I be upset?" Actually, if he wasn't so worried about her health, he'd have enjoyed it. He couldn't wait to walk around, carrying Zephyr on his back through the village. "I readily offered to carry you, and I should've eased you more into meeting Toothless, went a little slower. Your reaction was understandable. Danny, you have no need to apologize."
Oh. He should've realized... She could get in a lot of trouble if she told him, and he didn't want that.
"Hm. Okay, how about this? Is... whatever caused this, something that has been taken care of, where it won't happen to you again, or...or is it a normal occurrence?"
