So… @chiefhiccstrid kinda asked for this, and well… It just happened? 😅

Fandom: HTTYD

Theme: Hiccstrid - Medieval-style AU - Romance - Angst/Hurt/Comfort

Summary: Reduced to little more than a stable boy, Hiccup, despite his noble birth, has few prospects for more in life. But when he meets a girl who came to look at the horses, being a stable boy might not be enough anymore. Together, they have tough choices to make and great risks to navigate if they want to survive and be together.

Yay, only one week of waiting! Wasn’t sure whether I could make it but it worked 😃

Be prepared to wait longer from now on though! We’re officially switching to a two-weeks-schedule from now on.

This came up a few times in the comments, and although I answered commented on it on the Shoutouts, I also wanted to address this topic once for everyone because it probably won’t come up in the story. The swan roast. In general, swan meat was considered to be one of the highest delicacies of the medieval world. And more specifically, the swan is the heraldic animal of House Hofferson. With both these reasons, it was a matter of House Pride to serve swan roast at such an important evening. It had nothing to do with the King being heartless or cruel as he didn’t even know Astrid had a fondness for those swans. If he’d known, he certainly would have spared them. And it had nothing to do with Thuggory somehow influencing it to get to Astrid, either.

This chapter… I’ll be honest and warn you, I cried buckets writing it; and that was after having the scene in my head for months, regularly crying over it already. So… yeah… feelz ahead, hopefully.

This week’s title, Falling Too Fast To Prepare For This, again come from ‘Whatever It Takes’ by Imagine Dragons. Have I mentioned that I like their music and this song in particular? And in this case… it’s incredibly fitting I’d say… 😬

. o O o .

Astrid’s first reaction was surprise and disbelief. She was to marry? But it was too early! She’d just only turned eighteen; there were still two more years before she could marry. But when the news sank in into everyone’s awareness and hushed voices filled the hall, she remembered that this wasn’t a law. Legally, she could have been married for two years already. But why had her father changed the plan away from custom?

A heartbeat later, fragile joy sparked up in her chest. Had her father learned about her and Hiccup? Was this his gift to her, that she could marry him now instead of waiting for two more years? It seemed too good to be true, but there wasn’t another explanation, was there? She would marry Hiccup, that was the fate the Gods had designed for them, and if she was to marry in two months… With a racing heart, she stared up at her father, hope and anticipation ruling her every thought. Maybe this day wasn’t such a disaster after all…

But when the King continued, all her hopes were shattered into finer and finer pieces with each word.

I’m working on another, more complex one. Idk how it’ll turn out and I’m sure I’m sooo gonna lose, but nevermind: I’ll take it as a chance to draw my beloved Furies ❤

Well, Hiccup’s way is a lot quicker… and more exciting.

So do I, Toothless, so do I.

Summary: Dragons and Berk have been at war for generations; one year ago however, strange things started to happen during raids, which cannot possibly be the work of a dragon. Refusing to let her village be haunted by what they call the Phantom of the Arena, Astrid sets out to find the culprit.

Still can’t believe that you wrote in this into the fic. I love you <3 

I love you too and I love this comic <3 I still remember how we were talking about all kinds of silly things and then you drew this and I just couldn’t help but realize it in the fic :D 

Love the kiss in the first panel and Toothless’ smug look in the second to last one is just absolutely priceless. 

Party AU? Give me reccomendations for modern hiccstrid fics!!
