Hiccstrid - Blog Posts
i would like to take a moment to ponder on the fact that hiccup's hair was braided BEFORE he and astrid got together. that presents the idea that as friends, they were sitting next to each other, and she braided his hair, and he allowed her too.
please someone write a fanfic about this
"hiccup and astrid dating" this "hiccup and astrid dating" that, but lets talk about BEFORE they were together
im currently rewatching rtte and im noticing a bunch of details people DONT TALK ABOUT!!! hiccup and astrid always standing or sitting next to each other, hiccup being the only one to comfort astrid when heather leaves, hiccup and astrid just being the bestest of buds and always hanging out, astrid talking about hiccup when he's not there, even just the smallest of details like just glancing at each other. the twins are doing something stupid? astrid turns to give hiccup a raise of the brow, and hiccup just shrugs.
AND LETS NOT FORGET IN LIKE THE FIRST EPISODE, HICCUP AND ASTRID SIT NEXT TO EACHOTHER ON THE BEACH WHILE EVERYONE ELSE IS ASLEEP, JUST TALKING WHILE GAZING AT THE MOON!!!! these are the purest details never mentioned and it makes me sad :(
edit: "i can't imagine a world without you in it" BEING SAID BETWEEN THEM, WITH NO ROMANTIC FEELINGS BEING SAID YET? I ACTUALLY CAN'T THEY'RE EVERYTHING😭❤️
Tell me this isn’t their exact dynamic
Hiccup: *breaths*
Astrid, already whipping out the strap on: Hands and knees bitch boy
Httyd, Next Gen.
IVE DONE IT, PEOPLE!
After days of writing, trying to find proper names, and (trying to) make it as accurate as possible, I present to you my version of the next generation of dragon riders in httyd (in this AU)!
*(Btw, the descriptions are from a series of stories im making, so it will contain a shit-ton of lore. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!)
Zephyr Haddock - The eldest of the Haddock children, and the future heir to Berk. She reflects her fathers sarcasticness and creativity. She rides a Stromcutter she named Skysplitter. She is also the unofficial leader of the next generation of Dragon Riders, and is willing to protect all of them, especially Nuffink, when they are in danger. She often feels pressured by this new role, due to the fact she was placed in it overnight, but is guided by Avery. She feels guilty and feels as if it is her fault that her parents, and Berk, are in the state they are in in the first place. She doesn't like to talk about it all that much.
Nuffink Haddock - The youngest of the Haddock children, and while not the heir, still the Chief’s son. Unlike Zephyr, he reflects his mother’s traits of being adventurous and brash. He rides a green Nadder named Buckwing. He tries to help Zephyr the best he can on Dragon’s Edge, but sometimes goofs off with the cousins and Eira. He doesn’t like hearing about Berk, because it reminds him of his parents and the condition they are in.
Scullnut Thorston-Jorgenson - The son of Snotlout and Tuffnut (fraternal mother was Ruffnut). He inherits both of his fathers’ chaotic personalities, while also reflecting their loyalty to their old team. He rides a Typhoomerang named Glowtorch. When he escaped from Berk, Thornut wasn’t on the best terms with his parents (there will be TONS of context on that later). He feels guilty about it, and often feels like they ended up in their condition because of him. He takes his guilt out on the other riders in various forms, like questioning Zephyr’s leading, disobeying Avery and running amok on Dragon’s Edge with the cousins, and often zoning out during combat lectures. (He just doesn’t know any other way to deal with it, and certainly is not the type to talk about his problems).
Runa Ingerman - The daughter of Ruffnut and Fishlegs. She inherited Ruffnut’s chaotic personality and Fishlegs’s love for dragons, so the result was a chaotic love for dragons (I seriously don’t know how that would work out). Runa rides Fogs and Gust, a Zippleback from the Hidden World. She and Scullnut are thicker than the hairiest yak on Berk, because I mean, they are cousins, after all. They often secretly go on little adventures around Dragon’s Edge, just to loosen up a little. They also try not to think of the state Berk, and their parents, are in, afraid of what might’ve happened to them.
Arne - The eldest child of Dagur and Mala, and the future heir of the Defenders of the Wing, and the Berserkers. He reflects his mother’s traits, being calm and collected in times of danger, and knowing when the right time is to strike. He rides a Thunderdrum he named Waves, and often helps Zephyr as second-in-command of the riders, and keeps everyone, especially Eira, in check. He also comforts the riders when they feel at their lowest, and assures them that they are going to defeat Zelda and get their islands and people back.
Eira - The youngest child of Dagur and Mala. She inherited her father’s red hair and wild personality, and his fighting skills as well. She rides a Triple Strike named Wildeye. She has a hobby of chasing some of the Night Terrors around Dragon’s Edge, along with the cousins (Runa and Scullnut). Sometimes even Nuffink joins them as well. But Eira does have a more serious side to her. She looks up to both of her parents (mostly her father), and refuses to believe that he fell to a crazy lady and her dragon. So, whenever someone mentions him or anything related to him, she goes quiet and isolates herself for the rest of the day.
*I'm sorry if this isn't accurate/is cringey. As I said before, I tried to make it as accurate as possible (for this AU).
Names.
So, basically, I wasn't satisfied with the ending of httyd 3. I didn't like the dragons leaving, and I didn't like the plot very much as well. So, I decided to make a plot including the next generation (i.e. the riders' children). But here's where I meet my waterloo:
Names.
URRGH, I just have the WORST time selecting names for the children excluding Zephyr and Nuffink PLUS their dragons! Especially when you go on the internet and see all these awesome httyd ocs with their equally sensible names, and no matter how much you want to steal them but then you remember copyright is a thing. So, that's why, I need help. With names.
Please send me some sensible names, p l e a s e. I will be eternally grateful if y'all do. For both the children AND their potential dragons.
List:
Zephyr - Stormcutter Nuffink - Deadly Nadder Tufflout fanchild - Typhoomerang Rufflegs fanchild - Zippleback Dagurxmala child #1 (currently named Arne) - Thunderdrum Dagurxmala child #2 (currently named Eira) - Triple Strike
*This is a concept I'm still working on, so stuff might change later on.
UPDATE: I've uploaded the official descriptions of these characters now! Go check them out!
I've already posted about this before, but there is something so intimate and sweet about the riders all living on the Edge for a year.
Before RTTE they've been slowly drifting apart. After the end of Riders and Defenders of Berk Hiccup is still leading searches to the farthest corners of the archipelago with his friends, looking for whatever dragons they haven't discovered yet. One by one they found jobs within the tribe and stopped coming on those expeditions. Eventually, even Astrid finds a different calling.
But when Dagur came back, Hiccup needed them to help stop him. And, somewhat reluctantly, they agreed. They planned on heading out and stopping him, not staying away from Berk. But then Dagur got away and they found the dragon eye.
Hiccup realizes that he's gonna have to spend some time away from Berk exploring and fighting Dagur, and he doesn't want to have to do it alone. And he doesn't have to.
They're all right there with him, just like they used to be in Riders and Defenders of Berk. They're a team again, but they're rusty and they need to learn how to work with each other and fight alongside each other like they used to.
When they find the Edge, it is an empty island. They design it together, and they build it on their own from the ground up.
They build their huts and the stables and the clubhouse from the ground up together, and they make the banners that hang in the common spaces together, and they carve the dragon figures that sit on top of each building together, and they paint the walls of the buildings and landing decks together. Those little details make Dragon's Edge their home.
Over the course of a little over a year, they become a family. They become familiar with everything about each other, from their major traits to the tiniest idiosyncrasies.
They know what time the others wake up, and their favorite foods and colors.
They make breakfast and dinner for each other and they make sure that the dragons are fed and taken care of.
They sleep in the clubhouse some nights just to be together.
They bandage each other's wounds and they always have someone to talk to when they feel lonely.
They know how to read each other's emotions, can tell when it's a bad day for someone, and know how to cheer them up.
They can tell the sounds of their footsteps apart from each other as they make their way down to the clubhouse in the morning.
They see each other before they are fully awake. When their hair is messy and their minds are still foggy.
They stay up late talking and forget to sleep.
They have an endless slew of little inside jokes and know each other's habits intrinsically.
They hear each other humming when they think no one can hear them and have memorized the others' laughs.
They get on each other's nerves and push each other's buttons in the way that only family can.
Because by the end of the year, that's exactly what they are.
HTTYD AU
Haddock-Overland (Hofferson) Family
Zephyr Hofferson-Haddock
Zephyr is Hiccup's oldest child and only daughter, At the moment this photo was taken, she is 19 years old. Her biological mother died when she was 10, and her full brother, Nuffink, was 5. (In the Canon, they are 2-3 years apart, but this age gap between the two makes my Au understandable) Her father is in a relationship with Jackson Overland. She enjoys Jack, but she isn't as close to him as her brother is cause she remembers her mother. She doesn't feel like Jack is replacing her mother, as Hiccup always reminds her and Nuffink about Astrid, her mother.
At the moment, she is the chief's advisor's assistant. She wears her mother's hairband and her hairstyle in race to the edge.
Just to be sure, we are all on the same page. I don't want anyone unhappy with them making a mistake
Nvm my stupid ass got rejected 💀
If he doesn't look at me the way hiccup looks at Astrid I'm sorry but I don't fucking want it.
Guys he looked at me the way Hiccup looks at Astrid
If he doesn't look at me the way hiccup looks at Astrid I'm sorry but I don't fucking want it.
VEGGIE IS A DRAGON FAN!?!?!?
Second movie designs!!!
The episode 'Portrait of Hiccup as a Buff Man' is basically just the entire plot of the books.
Hamish the second (movie version of Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the second) was a Hiccup and left the treasure with a bunch of riddles and puzzles and when Hiccup found the treasure there was a not that said "Only a Hiccup could get this far." Which resulted in Hiccup being more accepted by his father and the people around him and being remembered for being his own person and not the idea of the perfect ideal heir to the throne of Berk.
There were a lot of differences like, it took Hiccup 4 years to become king of the wilderwest and 3 years to get people to follow him in the fight against Alvin to do good and the treasure in the books was hidden by Grimbeard in honour of his son rather than the other way around, but it's still very much the same premise of Hiccup discovering that being a runt isn't necessarily bad and being a funky little guy is actually a really good thing.
Also, the episode where they go to Vaneheim and get stuck because of the sentinels is like in book 2 when they go ti wherever and have to fight blind and deaf dragons with an incredibly advanced sense of smell and brutal killing methods
Rewatching Heather Report, Part 1, for the first time since starting on the Httyd books has made me realize just how similar Heather's first appearance is to Alvin's in the books.
Heather was "shipwrecked", much like how Alvin was found in a coffin at sea, both have a sea-related introduction.
Heather is trying to be friendly with Hiccup and friends, because she wants something from Berk. Alvin was trying to be friendly with Hiccup and his tribe, because he wanted something from Berk.
Heather got closer to Hiccup by helping him with his forging. Alvin got closer to Hiccup by helping him with something.
Heather worked for the Outcasts. Alvin worked for the Outcasts.
Astrid was almost immediately suspicious of Heather, she tried to warn Hiccup. Toothless was immediately suspicious of Alvin, he tried to warn Hiccup.
Heather mostly succeeded in her mission. Alvin almost succeeded in his mission.
The tv-shows are probably the closest to the books than the movieverse has ever gotten.
“there will always be a Hiccup and Astrid, always”
Me and bro celebrating after beating the dating allegations
If he doesn't look at me the way hiccup looks at Astrid I'm sorry but I don't fucking want it.
Jinetes de berk (hiccstrid roles swap)
Llendo a mi au de roles swap
Mucho no cambia, ecepto que astrid e hipo cambian de lugares, talvez uno que otro capítulo o chiste se vería afectado
Por ejemplo, en el capítulo del retrato, sería más el como hipo es presionado a ser como estoico, lo que lo lleva a hacer la única cosa que su padre no pudo, la final con ayuda de astrid lo logra
Astrid seria la que toma la misión de reunir los 2 mundos, mildew talvez sería más crítico con astrid , al no ser la hija del jefe
En el capítulo de "como escoger a tu dragon ", posiblemente no sería solo estoico ,talvez varios vikingos adultos aún no entienden del todo a los dragones, entre ellos los padres de astrid, lo que la llevaría a buscar dragones para los guerreros de antaño ,podríamos ver a los padres del resto del grupo
En "locura gemela ", talvez insinuaciones de dagur hacia astrid, aunque talvez todo siga parecido, hipo tratando de distraerte a dagur, mientras astrid esconde a los dragones, habría una conversación seria entre brutilda y astrid
Me gusta pensar que habría un capítulo sentrado en gothi y astrid, talvez astrid buscándole un drago, o una vista al pasado de gothi, mientras se debe adaptar a los cambios, siento que se volvería la anti mildew
La aventura de patán e hipo no cambia mucho
El festival del deshielo sigue, pero cambiando a astrid , de por sí en la serie original me sorprende que no sea astrid la ganadora, cuando es más hábil que patán, siendo que aquí cambian de roles,talvez una confesión de hipo de como deja ganar a patan, con astrid haciéndolo al final por un amigo
Y esta mi capítulo favorito de todos los tiempos,el reporte de heather, a qui hay de 2, que heather siga siendo la misma, o la siguiente opción y mi favorita, donde a si como es un paralelo de hip (al menos a si la veo yo), lo sigua siendo, y sea más una guerrera, que una niña peligrosamente inteligente
Seria lindo ver su relación con astrid, e hipo poniéndose celoso de la nueva chica, talvez brutilda también, aunque creo que el plan de suplantar a heather seguiría , me gusta el drag la verdad, pero es probable que siga siendo astrid la que se disfraze, con hiccup aún con los nervios de punta con este plan, talvez hasta culpando heather si algo malo llega a pasar
Astrid igual se las arregla para salir, con una nueva amiga, salvando a un dragón de los marginados , y recordándole a hiccup que quien es su mejor amigo...exacto, brutilda...na , es broma
Hiccstrid Roles swap
Amo el roles swap, a si que veamos como seria nuestro hiccstrid en este au
A diferencia de hiccup, astrid la tendría más difícil, siendo de un clan deshonrado, más sus intentos fallidos de recobrarlo, solo la harían más paria
Me gusta pensar que no sería chimuelo su dragón, o tormenta, si no la furia luminosa, que le diremos luna,porque es lindo , y astrid si sabe poner nombres
Vi un fanfiction donde en ves de ser Herrera, como hiccup, sería aprendiz de curandera, con goti, amo a gothi, y curaria a luna , como concecuencia me gusta pensar que cambiaría la prótesis de hiccup, por una cicatriz o quemadura, talvez en la cara o el brazo
Igualmente entraría a la fuerza al torneo , ya que sus padres se niegan a perder a una hija, como perdieron a fin, o puede que no se una, por la misma razón, y solo esta allí viendo a quien curar
Esta la relación con hiccup, donde el pasa de verla como una damisela en apuros, con muy mala suerte, a una mujer capaz , el la apoya igualmente, a si que vamos con el adorables y husbando hiccup
En esta su creo que sería más fuerte físicamente, y astrid sería más débil físicamente, no me lo imagino con un hacha como astrid, es más un tipo de espadas
Me gusta pensar que su relación con astrid es una de sobreprotección, donde la quiere, pero la subestima a cada rato, donde la protege de una posible muerte, pero no hace nada por el bullyng,o el mal autoestima de astrid , ya sea por no prestar atención del todo, o porque no los ve como problemas tan grandes , en un mundo donde puedes amanecer como el desayuno de un dragón
Es el heredero perfecto, a si que su relación con estoico no es tan mala, talvez seguirla siendo unido a gobber, pero talvez no sea su aprendiz, no sabría decir si es o no un inventor, pero me gusta la idea de que si, pero conservando su mala racha con los inventos , su dragón sería tormenta, pero no me sorprendería que le pusiera otro nombre "piquitos "talvez
Volviendo a astrid, sería interesante que su relación mostrara paralelismos con los cuentos de hadas, hiccup el caballero, astrid como la damisela en desgracia, y luna como el dragon temible
Solo para que el caballero se de cuenta que, astrid no es una damisela en apuros, es capaz de hacer grandes cosas, y el dragón no es tan malo, solo está asustado , y el caballero, tiene una mejor forma de amar que solo proteger con semblante frío
Valka está viva y coleando, siendo que es más pequeña que la mayoría de vikingos adultos, puede que sea una "hipo" también, a si que siendo que a qui astrid es la debilucha, podrían tener una buena relación, donde la relación de astrid e hiccup le recuerdo a la de ella y estoico, incluso que valka fue una "hipo", podría justificar el nombre de hiccup
Si vamos con el resto del equipo , patan seguiría a su primo por admiración, y trataría de imprecinarlo siempre, además de ser el bullyng de astrid, aunque no me sorprendería que tuviera uno que otro comentario sexista
Talvez luego se invierte el asunto, con patán tratando de impresionar a astrid, y molestando a hipo
Patapez sería amigable con astrid, pero no se juntaria mucho con ella
Los gemelos no cambian mucho, solo que me gustaría que brutalida tuviera más desarrollo con astrid , una relación de amistad seria linda
El final es el mismo,la niña marginada se vuelve una heroína
Happy Birthday Hiccup!! Crazy to think four years have passed since the last one. Here’s to another 4 years in the HTTYD fandom! :)

Bonus: Snotlout and Hiccup’s text conversation if you can’t make it out:
Can’t believe they put whatever hiccup and Astrid had going on in race to the edge in a kids show
