Snotlout is my absolute favorite character in the Httyd franchise. Yeah he’s a devious little brat, but he’s such a cutie pie while doing it. He has his soft moments which are so delicious in contrast with his usual tough-guy act. Plus, in my opinion, Snotlout has got one of the strongest and most entertaining bonds with his dragon. He and Hookfang care so much and so deeply for eachother, yet their arrogant personalities can still clash and make for some of the funniest bits in any of the shows.

I literally smile every time he comes on screen and makes a dumb little bloodthirsty grin, so it breaks my heart that all his well-deserved character development was kinda thrown away in hidden world. Plus, and this is a petty thing, but SNOTLOUT TOTALLY DESERVED TO END UP WITH SOMEONE, Ruffnut, Minden, Eret, somebody. Or, at the very least, Hookfang comes back and they’re besties again forever.

Please he doesn’t deserve to die alone while a one-legged talking fishbone bags a baddie 😭

Eret: Your girlfriend is quite… uh… intense, isn’t she?

Hiccup: Oh don’t mind her, she’s just a little overprotective, is all.

Eret: ….a little?

Full synopsis:

After five years of relentlessly putting up a siege against the Red Death, Hiccup, the former terrorist known as the Phantom of the Arena, has finally defeated the Archipelago's greatest enemy, putting a definitive end to the dragon raids. Hoping the worst is finally behind him, he returns to Berk, only to find he left more behind than just the girl he loved. And that life still isn't done with him.

Outside of the Archipelago, Eret, son of Eret, is left with nothing after a mysterious dragon rider destroys his fort and releases the captured dragons his employer sorely needed. Fearing he'll be killed if he doesn't, he flees to the Archipelago with what little remains, hoping to find employment in the dragon-infested area. But the threat seems to have followed him, as news spreads of how Berk's infamous Phantom has returned to reclaim what's his. And that people like Eret will never be safe, unless they act against him.

The Fire Tides Chapter 6 - Maelstrom Metamorphosis

Since I've been away for so long, it's only fair I get more chapters done hehe! Here's chapter 6, where Hiccup and Toothless get separated from everyone and the plot begins for The Fire Tides. This was quite a challenge to write, especially since it's filled with a lot of visuals of the maelstrom so I tried to give it my best shot! Hope you guys enjoy it!

“Are you cold?” Hiccup whispered to Astrid, shuffling closer to her.

“The winds are quite strong for some reason,” Astrid wrapped her arms around him, “It’s quite strange.”

“Astrid’s right,” Valka approached the two huddled up, “There’s something a bit peculiar about the wind levels right now.”

“Perhaps it’s the night’s calling? They do tend to get very strong in the evening hours,” said Hiccup.

“Maybe. Although, it would be best if we fly south-east for now. Just to steer clear of the gusts,” Valka walked to the Foreverwing’s head.

“Yeah, we can change our direction once the wind levels have calmed down a bit.”

Astrid glanced at the others all snoring, lying in a little coup. They really were worn out from all the mead; it was insane how easily they fell to their knees. She turned her head upwards; the stars seemed to not be as visible even though it was practically nightfall. With the shadows consuming them all, she felt the wind against her face, harshly and strongly, almost in a mocking manner. Astrid stiffened. Something just didn’t feel right. She couldn’t quite put her finger on it but there was definitely something up.

“For Thor’s sake,” Hiccup wrapped his arms tightly around her as the gusts grew stronger, “The gods seriously are rethinking whether to keep you with me!”

Astrid looked down in unease, holding onto him tightly.

“Hey, what’s wrong?”

“I don’t feel too good.”

“Oh,” Hiccup looked at her in concern, “Are you feeling really cold?”

He began rubbing her arms to try and warm her up; the last thing he wanted was for Astrid to end up with a fever once they arrived at Berk.

“No, I just feel like something’s not-”  

A thunderous quaking arose. The lightning struck the waters with a sharp current, stealing any surviving glimmers of the stars and shaping it into a singular electrifying flash. Right beneath them, the tides began to spiral, sharply and intensely, coiling into a foaming and tumultuous pit of anguish - a crater in the seas mined by Njord himself. The quaking grew louder. And gradually, the strong winds that struck the riders from above began to, instead, intensify from below, with the prodigious hole releasing its fumes in a strong desire to absorb any forms of life like a blaring suction machine. “A maelstrom!” Valka instantly leapt onto Cloudjumper, “Everyone get up!” Hiccup stood up in an instant, jumping onto Toothless, “For Thor’s sake! Not now!” “Guys, wake up! On your dragons!” Astrid yelled, finally realising what her gut meant. The Foreverwing cried, feeling itself being pulled in by the gyrating waters. Harshly, the lawnlike dragon jostled itself with all its might in an attempt to avert the whirlpool. In doing so, it ended up jostling its passengers awake as well. Snotlout screamed as he went flying across the Foreverwing’s back, slamming into one of his high trees.

“Aarghh!” He yelled in pain, “Why is it that whenever I try to get some beauty sleep, I always end up opening my eyes up to a precarious situation?!“

“Hey! Snotlout, watch out!” yelped Fishlegs, as Meatlug nearly collided into him.

Hookfang caught his rider in an instant, speeding past the timber and bushes in irritation. The monstrous nightmare huffed loudly, heating up and covering himself in boisterous flames. Barf and Belch also managed to make a quick rescue of their riders too, sighing in defeat as they began to hear the exasperated mutters of the now awoken twins.

“Sister, are you seeing this or am I simply dreaming?”

“No Brother, this is reality.”

Ruffnut and Tuffnut widened their eyes in shock as their smiles grew. “A maelstrom!” They both cheered in ecstasy.

“This is of such a beauty that our eyes are not worthy to behold, do you see the speed at which those waves spin?! The foam that so effortlessly builds up right in the centre?!”

“You are not mistaken Brother! And that quaking noise! It sounds way better than the lava pit that Throk showed us back at Mala’s!”

“Oh Thor, please let it be! Let us be swooped in by those strong currents, let us feel the gusts slap our face and the tides mess up our hair!” cried Tuffnut in pure unaltered worship.

“No, let us not have to deal with any of that Thor!” called Hiccup, as he adjusted Toothless’ tail fin to give them more altitude.

“It’s too strong Hiccup!” Eret nudged Skullcrusher to push even harder against the current.

“We have to stay in the air! C’mon guys, push through!” The riders all thrusted against the engulfing winds, forcing past the suction of the pulsating seas. Their efforts were, however, dying in vain. Much more vigorously, the waves convulsed and pounded against its own body of water, swinging and thrashing like a bloody diseased merchant gasping for air. Astrid felt her grip on the saddle loosen by the sheer velocity of the wind. The tight coldness slammed against her wrists and she felt her body being shoved off by the sudden squall of wind shooting right at her waist.

“Aah!”

Hiccup noticed the agitated squawking of Stormfly. His eyes widened as he saw Astrid plummeting from her dragon, nearing closer to the maelstrom.

“Astrid!” He cried, pushing Toothless towards the whirlpool, “I know bud. But we can’t let her get dragged in!”

“Hiccup! Don’t-” Astrid struggled to get her words out with how powerful the winds were.

The Night Fury and the Deadly Nadder were both at a very perilous spot. The eye of the maelstrom glared at the two in envy, wishing to split them up like the flying debris that it was currently slicing in half. Desperately, Hiccup and Toothless dove towards Astrid.

“Hiccup!” Valka cried, seeing how close he was to the spiralling hole.

Hiccup gasped as the wind tugged at his lungs and twisted his stomach. Shakily extending his arm out, he stretched his hand down towards her, challenging the gravitational gale that was pushing Astrid to her descent. With tear-induced eyes, she slowly held her hand up in response, thrusting her arm against the burning current that was ramming her down to the depths of hell.

They both held each other’s gaze, tightening their eyes in solemnity. He couldn’t see the glow of the stars in her pupils any longer. Toothless’ tail was sliding off. The thunder became deafening. And by nature’s will, the spiritual strings connecting their fingertips within that monumental gap was sliced by a final gush of wind, incontestably severing the remaining fusion between the two. Like a drill in the ocean splicing the central unit, the whirlwind spun its threads to close off any remaining gaps and released a powerful striking blow that propelled each of the riders to their own solitary ends. Their screams were overpowered by the thunderous roars and, slowly yet softly, clusters of raindrops began to fall - a dire attempt to calm the fiery tides.

So, things have turned completely upside down now! Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, this is where things start to go haywire and we'll see a lot of Hiccup development, as well as the development of the other characters in the upcoming chapters. I'm really hooked in writing this and I thank you guys for being patient and appreciating my work, it really means a lot as someone who's planning to release her own novel in the future! I'll continue to make this project the best that I can and continue to improve my writing! :)

Pairing: Hiccstrid

Author’s Notes: Not the first one-shot that I wrote for this AU, which is why I know that this is only the beginning of Hiccup's MOST RECENT troubles.

Enjoy!

-XOXOX-

It's late in the evening. After making sure Zephyr is fast asleep in her basket, Hiccup settles into his son's bed with Tiny. The boy has already picked out a book for him to read from. He picked it from the small collection that they have stuffed in between the bigger books of his parents in the living room bookshelf. Coughing, he crawls into his lap and pulls the blanket over the both of them.

Naturally, Hiccup watches him for a moment. That wasn't the first time he heard that cough this evening.

Settling in comfortably with his son in his lap and the book in his hands, Hiccup takes a look at what the choice is for today.

It's a collection of fairy tales. Not the dark stories like from the brothers Grimm and such, but their sanitized versions considered more "child-friendly."

"Okay, Vigi, what're we reading today?" Hiccup asks as they read the table of contents together.

"That one!" Tiny's finger immediately settles on that of The Three Little Pigs and Hiccup smiles before turning the pages to that exact one. Finding the right story, he begins.

Or rather, Tiny has another coughing fit and then he begins to read.

At six years old, his son is at the age in which he can read along a little. There's a school that he goes to, but even after work, Hiccup still takes some extra time out of his day to teach his son how to read and write and how to do math. When there isn't a lot to do at the workshop, Gobber doesn't mind it if he takes an hour to teach Vigi during the day. The boy likes to watch his father work.

"And he says-" Just as he's about to break out a third little pig's voice, Tiny interrupts him.

"What's that say?" He asks, no longer paying attention to the overall story as he's trying to decipher a particular word. He knows his letters, he knows what they sound like, yet he doesn't know this word and wouldn't know how to say it or what it means.

"It's-" when Hiccup wants to respond, his son has another coughing fit. It doesn't sound like a congestive cough, but that's what it could turn into.

Waiting until he's finished, Hiccup answers his question before continuing on with the fairy tale. Or cautionary tale, as that's what they used to be.

He tries to dismiss the fits. Astrid often tells him that he's "too worried" and "should let their son breathe." And if she were home, she would probably tell him that it's just a little cough. People often cough, especially down here. That doesn't necessarily mean that something has to be wrong.

Yet the next time a fit comes, Hiccup immediately pauses to place a hand on his son's forehead. He doesn't feel particularly warm. Just to be sure, he leans down to press his cheek to his forehead instead. Vigi lets him, though the craning of his neck makes another series of coughs erupt from his throat.

His dad pulls away from him when they do and simply watches as his eldest has to practically fold in half just to cough. He doesn't have a fever, not yet at least, but Hiccup has already decided that he might see a doctor with him tomorrow. Astrid is right, he does have a tendency of getting overprotective, but that might not be the case this time.

Once the story is finished, interrupted once or twice more by another fit, Hiccup closes the book and puts it aside. Tiny still in his lap, he wraps his arms around him. His eyes are slipping closed, he's falling asleep.

"Come on," Hiccup kisses the top of his head. "You're sleeping in my bed tonight.

ao3 is down so i’ve been finally imagining httyd au and throwing plot on the walls like spaghetti [in my current half baked plot, it goes like the httyd movie, ren is the chief’s son and he’s currently in jail for being a dragon sympathiser. he’s been working with false on studying dragons but he lies and says she doesn’t know about the dragon sympathising thing. also conveniently iskall’s family died in a dragon attack so he hates dragons and he’s been brought up like a brother with ren (heir in case something happens to ren). false breaks ren out of jail during a dragon attack. ren runs away with his dragon (the dragon is called pamela). iskall becomes heir. false continues being a dragon sympathiser while keeping up appearances so she doesn’t get jailed too. i’ve read enough runaway!hiccup aus to get a vibe of what happens next]

[dragonhistorian]

the best part of hiccstrid having two kids by the end of the series is that I can still imagine they had 2 MORE kids to make my 4 kids (2 girls 2 boys) canon :D

and don't talk to me about that horrific post-canon tv show :D

The cabin in the woods or how Zephyr was made/Part 1

Hiccup, Astrid and their friends had set off into the forest early that morning. While Ruffnut and Tuffnut argued about room allocation, Snotlout told his boyfriend Eret and Heather's boyfriend Fishlegs about his new motorcycles that he had bought a few weeks ago, Dagur turned up the radio and sang along loudly so that his sister had to cover her ears, Hiccup and Astrid sat cuddled up in the back of the van. They watched as the jade green of the dense pine forest passed them by. They watched the light break through the treetops, trying not to think too much about the noise their friends were making. Resting a hand on her hip, he whispered in her ear: "I love our friends, but I'm happy when we're finally in this dead zone." Astrid smiled quietly at his remark. He had barely finished this sentence when his cousin suddenly yelped. "No no! Is there no reception here?" "No, I'm sorry, snotout, this is pure, wild, wonderful nature, where there is no internet," said Dagur calmly, now driving out of the forest into a large meadow drove, which was surrounded by a large pine forest. “My name is Snotlout. If only I hadn't gone with you, I could still be lazing around in my jacuzzi," grumbled Snotlout, offended.

On a small hill there was a beautiful old-fashioned Austrian-style farmhouse with a small barn next door, which they were now driving towards. When Astrid got out of the car, the fresh air of the forest immediately rushed towards her and she giggled when she felt the soft grass under her feet. Her gaze slid across the large clearing towards the forest as she slowly walked to a small wooden fountain that stood next to the house. A quiet smile crept across her lips as she noticed Hiccup approaching her and following her gaze. "It's been so long since I've been out in nature that I almost forgot what beauty surrounds it." She felt Hiccup's loving gaze as he took her hand in his. “I’m glad you’re feeling better now. The last week wasn't exactly easy." Astrid nodded. "Yes, but thanks to you I found my way out of the darkness." "It's not just because of me, you also have a strong will that made it possible for you to get through it." Without any further words, Astrid snuggled up to him.

After Hiccup, Astrid and their friends had settled into their rooms, they went outside again. Astrid, Hiccup and Snotlout got two loungers from the barn, which they set up next to the hut, while Dagur, Heather, Fishlegs and Eret played with a Frisbee and the twins occupied themselves with the rooting table inside the barn.

"And do you think there's room next to me on this lounger?" Hiccup asked teasingly as he plopped down on the lounger with his book about Viking history. Astrid laughed and snuggled into his side. “If I have room in the bed with you, then I also have room on a small lounger with you.” They heard Snotlout clear his throat loudly behind them. “You only get two in a pack and you act like a married couple.” Hiccup raised an eyebrow and looked at his cousin challengingly. “It's no different with you and Eret.” “Shut up, Hiccup,” mumbled Snotlout annoyed and continued typing on his iPad, on which he was probably finding out about the latest motorcycles he wanted to buy, as if he had not enough in his garage already. Suddenly the Frisbee shot over the three of them and hit the barn door, which brought Ruffnut and Tuffnut to the scene. The next moment Dagur ran to them. “Sorry guys, Eret was a little cocky while throwing. But hey, while you’re all here, we could take a walk in the woods together before it gets dark.”
