wc: 3.4k
warnings: angst and comfort, grief, strong language, brief mention of child death (in worst! Logan's universe), spoilers for Deadpool & Wolverine as well as Logan (2017), the bye bye bye scene is treated as grave desecration (which i mean,it is⌠but reader is naturally gonna see nothing humorous about it)
a/n: This is a bit of a mess because I never write, yet I have so many feelings and thoughts I had to do something with them. Not having seen a platonic fic of this kind anywhere I guess I had to make one. Also..I did some basic research on the general deadpool canon yet..Iâm not entirely informed, having not watched deadpool 2⌠letâs hope for the best
--------------
 You used to be the youngest student in the X mansion back in the day, just a child having mutated under life altering circumstances, the usual.Â
 It was Logan who found you. He was your rock during and after the traumatizing event of your mutation, taking you in and placing you in the arms of the X-men and thanks to him they became your family.
 You saw him no less than as a father. Despite his brooding, harsh exterior it was never difficult for you to see that he cared.
 He never shot you down when you knocked on his door in the middle of the night, sobbing after another brutal nightmare. He took you seriously when you talked about your fears and worries. He saved you and helped you stand on your feet more times than you could count.
 Seeing death and bad things happen to your family of mutants always hurt viciously but when Logan died it felt like something you would never get over.
  With your abilities generally under control, you chose to avoid actively partaking in X men work (Not that you refused your assistance, if someone called for you specifically. It had better be very urgent though.)
 So you tried to find a rhythm of what resembled a normal life for the most part, a decent job and some good friends. That was what he would have wanted, no, said he wanted for you.
 You kept ties with Laura too, having bonded over your shared grief, the man having died in her arms after all. She was some years younger than you and you were happy to consider her a good friend, the younger sibling type.
 Some years ago she had disappeared, causing you yet another source of anxiety. Turns out she herself had been banished to the Void. The relief you felt when Wade came back from that limbo hell while managing to bring her back too, was immense. You have never hugged anyone tighter than Laura the day you saw her again.
 Speaking of Wade, through this and that, you had also become acquaintances. He had needed your assistance when he was forming his X force crew and you had hesitantly accepted, making it clear that this would be an one-time thing.Â
 He seemed to be a "Wolverine fanboy" in his own words which caused him to bombard you with childish questions about him until you very firmly made him aware of your boundaries. There was a time and place to talk about Logan.
When that shitshow was over with, you did not mind him considering you your friend. Sure, he was a bit much for you, not a huge fan of his 'humor' but seeing him in moderation was not unpleasantâŚAlright, maybe you did enjoy his company and friendship, it was as simple as that.
  After a chat with him, you learned that the rent in his apartment building was relatively cheap for New York standards, so when it was time to move out of your previous place, that was where you went.
 Then the damn timeline thing happened. You were pretty confused as to how exactly the events played out, not being involved, thankfully. But the crazy fucker did it, he saved the universe from extinction apparently. And not exactly by himself.
 Logan was there. Not your Logan but apparently a variant of him was necessary to pull the mission off.
 And now that version of him was Wade's roommate. Great. Perfect. Definitely something easy for you to process in the days to come.
--------------
 You first saw them after the mission on your way to catch a cab to the airport. It was that time of the trimester when you were to visit him. Bleak yet you longed to see him and speak to him, even if he was resting under the earth.Â
 Wade had the decency to explain everything to you once it was decided that Loganâs variant would be staying. He knew that you never really stopped grieving and you appreciated the warning that basically an almost exact replica of your dead father figure would now roam around your earth.
Almost exact, because according to Wade, this Logan was more of a dick, more crude and erratic, apparently rendered by his extra layers of grief and hatred. Partially understandable but you would not accept that as an excuse if he said something cruel in front of you, you would probably introduce him to your interesting mutative abilities. You let Wade know so that he could warn mr stick-up-his-ass. Wade more than happy to accept, still assured you that with the life or death mission being over, Logan was attempting to be more approachable.
 The feelings this new reality brewed in you were..mixed, to say the least.
 You made eye contact with Wade from across the street and of course he shot up from the bench he was sitting on, dropping his half eaten sandwich to the ground, moving his arms vigorously in the air, catching not only your attention but any other passerby's.Â
 Even though your stomach turned at having to face the him, you wanted to check up on Wade after all this madness he went through. And on his friend as well, you supposed.
 You looked both ways before passing the street and before you knew it, Wadeâs arms wrapped around your neck. You patted his back with one hand, unable to help the choking sounds that left you.Â
 âItâs so good to see you, my little honey pumpkin bear!â He squealed excitedly while squeezing the dear life out of you. He really thought heâd never see his friends again, huh.
âOof, yeah Wade, itâs really nice to see you too, please just-â You broke free of his hold and held an armâs distance between the two of you. You patted his arm and gave him a small but genuine smile. âReally glad youâre ok. Not that I expected anything le-â
 Your words slowly died out when your gaze met Loganâs. He was sitting on the bench observing the interaction silently. He looked just like you remembered him, minus some differences. Well, obviously he was supposed to be the same person yet..he was not.
 He looked up at you, brows furrowed while his eyes scanned through your face before flashing with what seemed like recognition (Not that you knew what it was he was seeing) He seemed tense and his mouth gaped before he turned his attention to the ground.Â
 Wade naturally noticed the uncomfortable tension between the two of you and he decided to chime in quickly.
âAh, yes this is the Wolverine I had to kidnap to help me with the time ripper bullshit and oh boy, did he deliver!âÂ
 You kept your eyes on the Variant, forcing yourself into a polite smile (that resembled more of an awkward line) and you extended your hand to him, causing him to lift his gaze at you again.
âNice to meet you...Logan. Thank you for your help with unscrewing our timelineâ You said as pleasantly as you could and he took your hand after a moment of hesitation, shaking it with a gentle firm and a silent nod.Â
His presence..It made your stomach turn. Feeling the threat of your vision getting watery, you quickly averted your gaze away from the two, as subtle as you could manage.Â
âI..Wade, mâ sorry, would love to sit a bit more but I have to go-â
âHey wait, tomorrow weâll be having a get-together to celebrate the un-fuckery of the universe, a partEy if you will! Everyone will be there, Al will be making that terrible casserole you really like also!â
You gave him a melancholic smile, genuinely sad you would not be able to attend. Loganâs variant was back to looking at the ground.
âAh, Iâm sorry, I wonât make it, Iâm afraid. Iâm going to the airport right now actually, will be off for the next three days. Gotta see someone..â
âOooohâ Wade whistled while wiggling his brows âand is that someone maybe a super hot sexy mysterious boyfriend? Or girlfriend? Or theyfriend? Or-âÂ
âHeh, nope. Nothing like that unfortunately.â
âSure, sure, keep your secrets, you ankle biter, but promise to pass by the apartment once youâre back, we gotta catch up!â
You nodded. âOf course. See you then.âÂ
 Two days later you found yourself back in New York in a rush, in front of Wadeâs apartment door, ready to invent a way that would actually exterminate him.
--------------
 Nothing prepared you for the mess you saw in what was supposed to be Loganâs resting place.Â
 The snow had ceased completely. With a simple look his grave was undug and the makeshift X was missing. When you approached, the little fresh snow that had fallen last night was covering various types of debris. Some type of fight had taken place and someone had collected the bodies in a rush yet they did not bother with what you spotted after closer inspection and some digging with your hands.Â
 Metallic looking appendagesâŚThese wereâŚ
You looked inside the open grave. The snow had barely covered the remains in there and it was obvious they were not even half of what they were supposed to be.
 You suppressed the violent urge to vomit. Someone had taken him out, violated his remains and as if in a haste, threw them back in.
 You dug through the snow with bare hands around the grave. A fragment here. A fragment there. The spine. What was left of the cranium. White hot rage.
You called Laura with shaking hands. Offended would be an understatement for how she sounded, as well, unaware of who could have possibly caused this. Why were you even calling her, poor girl was in the void for a while now, what could she possibly do or know?
You hung up with the intention of looking through the situation a bit more and catching her up later.
  While trying to stay calm and focusing all your mental energy on collecting, wiping and gently placing the remains back in the hole, it clicked.
 Wade.Â
 From the few words you two had exchanged ever since he was back, you gathered he turned every stone to find âa Wolverineâ to assist him. Yet you could not imagine what the everloving fuck would he defile your Wolverineâs grave for and what caused him to spread his bones all over like fucking confetti.
  You would not stand for this. Just because Wade saved the stupid timeline, he did not automatically become immune to the most extraordinary ass whooping of the century. If he had something to do with this, you would not forgive him easily, if at all
--------------
 After taking a deep breath, you rang the bell. Tapping your foot on the ground, you heard some mumbling and shuffling before the door opened.
 Wade made a surprised expression that resembled a caricature.
âSweet baby cakes! You're back already? Come on in, I was just thinking about starting a gossip girl marathon. Again!â
 Wade's cheerful expression fell almost immediately when you stayed still for a moment too long, not responding.
 Althea did not seem to be home. Good.
 Wade's expression morphed into one of concern.
âPumpkin, is everything-â
âWade. Guess where I just came back from.â
You took a slow step forward, dropping you backpack to the floor.
âErm..a male stripclub full of hot babes?â
âNorth Dakota.â
âDon't you say! Did North Dakota had any good male strip-â He stopped himself before realization hit him. âAnd..may I ask..what was it you were doing in North-â
âYou know very well what.â
Wade put his hands in front of him defensively and closed the door. âHey Pumpkin, why don't you just sit so that we can-â
âShut. Up.â You whispered.
âWhen I got to his grave, someone had completely messed it up. Signs of fighting around. Do you happen to have anything to do with that?â You said in a dangerously low voice, eyes glued on him.
 Wade, whose mouth formed into an awkward line, clearly not having a reasonably enough excuse to give you.
âEr, you see, um remember when I was looking for a Logan, well I started my search with the OG, you know, just to make sure he was dead dead and unfortunately he was and um then you see err the TVA showed up and um-â
He stopped when you put your hands on your face, squeezing it while a muffled screech of rage escaped you.Â
âYou motherfucking, with no semblance of decency, insensitive prick. You defiled Logan's remains and used them as a shield, throwing them around like toys? And you have the nerve to come back home and look me in the eye after the fact? To look Laura in the eye? Do you not have any fucking shame? Am I simply an afterthought to you?â
Silence. You could not see through the tears. With shaky hands you pulled out of your pocket a tiny clothed item and you carefully unwrapped the cover to reveal a small metallic fragment.
âYou may think everything's a fucking game but that man was my family, and worst part is you know this very damn well! How dare you!â
âYou have every right to be angry, just let me-â
 You grabbed the first object you could reach, which was a half empty bottle of liquor and threw it across the room, causing it to smash angrily on the wall of the living room. Wade winced slightly before groaning in frustration.
With that, a bedroom shot open and an alarmed Logan variant made an appearance, claws already out.
âWhat the fuck is hap-â
 He stopped in his tracks seeing it was just you. He probably had already heard your yelling earlier yet it did not answer any questions about what was going on.
âWhat the hell, kid?â he said with a subtle hint of alarm.
 You take a step towards him, looking up at his face, paying no mind to his blades that were now retreating back inside. God, how it hurt to stare right into his features. Feeling a wave of nausea, you picked up your bag and turned your back to the two men.
 âWait, can't we just talk about this?â Wade said
 âNo, you ruined my week enoughâ You mumbled bitterly before exiting his apartment. Week, more like, year.
--------------
 The roof of the building was pretty nice, you always preferred it when you wanted some time to yourself outside the walls of your apartment. You rarely ever saw any other tenant there, especially in the late afternoons.
 This is where you found yourself that night, elbows supported on the railing, observing the busy street from above while sipping on bad beer.
 How you wished he was there right now. How you wished for one more simple moment with him, where you could just be in his presence once again, chat about nonsense or simply sit in comfortable silence next to him.Â
 What would he think of you as the person you were trying to become? Would he be proud of you?Â
 How you wished he would put his hand on your shoulder comfortingly right now.  Â
 You missed him. So much.
A high pitched creak came from the direction of the heavy door behind you, causing you to jump a little and instinctively wipe the fresh tears that you just then realized were running down your face.
 âSorry, kid, did I scare you? They mustn't have oiled this door in fucking ever..â There was Logan, the new one. Whatever entity was reading your thoughts a moment prior must be finding your misery hilarious.
 âHope Iâm not bothering youâ
 âNo, no. I donât own the rooftop..â You mumbled softly, turning your attention back on the street, trying to ignore the feeling of clear tension he brought with him. You swore to God, if he was about to make a crass comment..
 He came to stand next to you, mimicking the position of your elbows on the railing. He himself was holding a glass, filled with one most likely alcoholic liquid.
 âThat asshole told me everything about the grave thing. If I were you, I would have torn him apart.â
 âIâm sure you already know this isnât possible by any meansâ
 Logan huffed. âOh, believe me, I do. Iâve tried at least three timesâ
 You gave a noncommittal nod, trying not to focus too much the gruff voice you always found so comforting.
 â...You know..You existed in my timeline tooâ He mumbled before gulping a generous sip of his drink.
 That made you look up at him, surprised. âIâŚdid?â
âOh, yes you did. Lively little brat you were.â He said with a laugh you could only describe as melancholic. He said it like it hurt.
âYou went through so much for a child. And you did cry quite often âcause of it, yet you were still so..â He seized, taking a heavy breath and emptying his glass. âSo full of life. A good kid.â The city lights reflecting on his eyes, making it easier for you to see how watery they were.
âI..assume IâŚâ
You were interrupted by another one of those devastating low laughs that made your heart ache.
âYeah. You were among them. Those fuckers did not even spare a fucking child. I was the one who got you with the X-men and it ended in..â He hissed through his teeth and half closed mouth. He took a moment to collect himself and breathed out.
âIâm so sorry, Logan.â You whispered genuinely. You didnât know what to say.
âDonât be, âŚsorry, didn't mean to make it about myself.â
âYou didnât, really!âÂ
 A moment of awkward silence before you decided to share your piece.
âMy Logan, er, you..I suppose itâs more or less the same as it was in your world but..you were like aâŚYou were the closest I ever felt to a parent. I grew up because of you and..yeah, when I was around 17, you died.â It was almost funny how much you oversimplified those statements but it was the best you could manage at the given moment.
 He nodded, listening intently.
âIâm sure that..If he saw how you grew into who you are today, doing your own thing, in spite of the mutation shit and allâŚhe wouldnât change a thing about how all these fucking events went down..â
âYou..think so?â
He chuckled, giving you a small smile, tired but genuine.
âHell, I know so.â he said. You could tell. You could tell that he desperately wished this was how the events played out in his own world, with the other you alive and a bright future ahead of them.
 You hesitated for a moment, not sure if what you were about to say would be too much for him. Then again, it was him who approached you with this vulnerable conversation.Â
âFor what it's worth I would⌠they would want you to keep on living. Not forget them, not at all. Just..be. Be a person. Make friends and..live.â
 He looked you in the eye for a second, before averting your gaze and looking anywhere but you. This was hard for him. But he was trying.
 He patted your back firmly. âThanks, kid.â It was a very simple thing you told him yet you could not possibly know what it meant to him.Â
You thought that maybe you got what you wished for. Not exactly and certainly not ideally. But you and this Logan had something in common. Maybe, you could help and comfort each other in a way nobody else possibly could.Â
 âYâ know..I'm glad you got to stay, Logan.â
 A smile. âI'm glad to be here, kiddo.â
A pause.Â
âHow long do you think I should make Wade do my laundry for? Y'know. For retribution?â
âOh, six months at least, bub..âÂ
You stayed for a couple hours chatting above the restless city, topics including but not limited to work, university and acquaintances.
Your pain was soothed a tiny bit and you hoped Logan's was too. You had a lot of time ahead of you to work on that further, after all.
Synopsis. You bring Viktor home from a long day in the lab. He wakes up and finds himself needing you.
A/n. No specified gender/genitalia of reader.
Viktor ignored the small voice in his head that tried to tell him to go home. âJust a few more minutes,â he murmured aloud. His fingers tinkered with the project in front of him.
âWhatâd you say?â
Viktor whipped around to see your lanky build leaning against a desk. He relaxed as you tilted your head with your familiar smile. âI- I missed you, my darling,â he whispered, rising to his feet. He hobbled into your arms and felt his weight sag against you. âI didnât realize how tired I am.â
You shushed him and carded your finger through his hair. âIâve been telling you, V. You need to care for yourself,â you coo into his ear. He relaxes completely, leaving you steady on your feet with his freakishly tall body in your arms. âBut I admit, I love taking care of you.â
Viktor exhaled shakily. âY/n?â
You hum.
He nuzzles his face into your neck and breathes in your scent. âWill you take me home?â
âOf course, my love.â
Itâs the middle of the night when Viktor wakes, arms latched onto your strong form. Visions of the dream previously flickering behind his eyelids make him pant heavily as he looks down to see his pelvis grinding down  between your legs.
âFuck,â he croaks, wrapping his arms around your neck as he degrades himself for taking advantage of you while you slept. âIâm sorry, my lover.â
Viktorâs hips move slightly fast as your hands unconsciously grip Viltorâs waist. âY/n, please.â
You blink awake. Viktorâs pathetic humping had been the actions to wake you instead of his quiet pleads. âYouâre so needy,â you inform him wryly. Your head fell back to the pillow under you. âI canât even sleep without-â
âY/n, I need you,â Viktor pleads, leaving kisses from your exposed neck all the way up to your eyelids. âPlease give me what I need.â
Viktorâs hips stutter. His breath catches in his throat as your hands trace down his back to squeeze his ass. âYou have me right here, Vik. Take what you need,â you coo in his ear.
At your breathy words, Viktor whines as he pistons his hips down. âPle-Please y/n,â he whimpers. âTalk to me, tell me- tell me Iâm yours.âÂ
You look at the famous, world-renowned scientist in front of you and wonder how you were blessed with the ability to turn him into the pitiful, whining, horny man in front of you. âYou need my voice, is that it? I love how much you need me Viktor⌠I love you, Viktor.â He smothers a particularly loud groan by shoving his face into your shoulder. âOh, you like that, donât you? You donât need to tell me, V. I know what my good boy likes.â
Just to tease him, you buck your hips up to grind onto his core. âY/n!â He cries out, chasing your heat. âFuck,â he whines.
âSo reactive,â you murmur absently. âYouâre doing so well, Viktor, so good for me.â
âPlease, y/n, I need you. I ca-I canât cum without you.â Tears leak from his eyes as his movements turn jerky and desperate. âHelp me, please.â
You click your tongue. âOh, Vik. This is how I feel when youâre off in your lab every day and every night. Iâm showing you mercy by just being here, my love,â you tell him. âIf you make yourself cum right now, I promise Iâll fuck you so good you wonât know any other words than thank you,â you coo. He sinks his teeth into your flesh as he gets closer to his orgasm.
âIâm going- Iâm- y/n,â Viktor rambles as his hips unceasingly grind on you. âY/n!â
His arms tighten around you as he spills his cum into his pants. Viktor is temporarily free from the pain in his leg as his legs twitch. âI love you,â Viktor slurs in your ear, feeling you roll on top of him. âI need moreâŚâ
You pull away from him to see how pretty he looks underneath you. The moon glinted in his eyes, and his list was evident in his gaze. As your nimble fingers unbuttoned his pants, you let him pull you back down to his lips in a lazy kiss. âInsatiable,â you chide when you pull away for air.
Viktor pulls your shirt off of your body. âI just crave you. In every way, all the time, unceasingly.â
You chuckle and grasp his chin. âI love you too, Viktor.â

Imagine leaving Higuruma a bouquet of sunflowers on his desk on Valentine's day.
He'll quickly deduce that whoever left them was making a play on his name and his career as a lawyer. So it's someone he knows.
Although he'd prefer roses if someone was leaving him flowers, he's flattered nonetheless that there's a person believing he's bouquet worthy.
The little card that came with them says 'To balance out your gloominess'.
He'll chuckle to himself 'Gloomy? I'm not gloomy. Broody perhaps.'
The rest of his day is spent trying to figure out who sent them, and he'll have a goofy grin on his face whenever he glances at them. He'll try his best to draw attention to them every time someone comes in the room, like he's not so discreetly saying 'someone sent me a Valentine's bouquet!'
"Pretty bouquet." You comment as you walk in to hand him a report.
"Oh, noticed them did you? Looks like I'm popular around here," he'll drawl, trying not to look too pleased with himself.
"Or it could mean someone doesn't want to look at you again."
His smugness fades. "What do you mean?"
"Oh cmon, you know the old Greek tale? Apollo turned his lover Clytie into a sunflower so that he'd never have to look at her face again after she betrayed him to a sea nymph."
His cheer immediately drops and you feel bad for him. "But I doubt that. Very few people know that fact. I'm sure whoever sent them intends to see your face again. Perhaps the next day morning."
"Next day morning?" he sounds confused.
You nod your head. "Yeah. Sunflowers need to be plucked in the early morning otherwise they wilt. So maybe whoever sent them was hoping they'd see your face the next morning after you've... Wilted."
You give him a playful smirk and walk out.
"Wilted...? What...?"
It takes a few seconds before the cogs in his brain start work.
"Hold on now y/n!"
He scrambles out of the office behind you.

AAAAAAW LOOK AT HIM đđđđđ¤đ¤
thinking about giving some relief to your stressed husband before he has to attend an important meeting with his colleagues later in the afternoonâŚ
youâre awakened by the shower of gentle kisses from your neck and face provided by none other than your own darling husband. your gaze softens when you notice that desperately hungry look in his eyes. then, when your eyes travel downward, you were pleasantly surprised by the sight of your husbandâs naked body. the sunrise shone through your bedroom window, basking your husband in a golden light. he looked near damn ethereal.
you greedily took in his meaty thighs, toned arms, rock hard abs, and his useless, thick, leaking cock. sometimes you wondered how in the hell you were able to marry a hunk like him. you could distinctly remember that your husband had many admirers in his life who would give anything to be able to have a chance with him.
you felt pride bubble in your chest knowing that none of them would ever be able to see your husband like this: looking down at you with pleading eyes, not even having to say a word to let you know what he wanted. for you to fuck him like a cheap whore until your bedroom stank of sex. how could you deny your baby when heâs been good for you all week long?
âyou look so pretty on top of me baby, mhm, move your hips just like that,â you praised as the grip of your husbandâs quivering legs tensed around you as he raises his hips until just your tip is inside him before plopping down, his skin slapping sinfully against your cum stained pelvis; evidence of your previous rounds that your husband was so desperate to keep inside him as it continued to leak out with every frantic movement of his hips.
âyer cock feels so good, i needed this so muchâ ah!â he gasped when you grab hold of his waist and snapped your hips up to match the pace of his feverish riding. you could hear the tear of fabric beside your head as your husbands claws at your pillows, his breathless moans increasing as you continue to plow into his hole.
âoh fuck yes! please go faster, iâm so close,â your husband begs so beautifully as he rest his forehead beside your neck, he pants against your ear as his climax creeps closer. the final straw for him was when you wrap your fingers around his girth and stroke him along with your erratic thrusts. he muffled his whine by biting into your shoulder as he added more to the white mess of your abdomen. overstimulation cuts him like a knife as you continued to use him until you quickly follow suit and you slam balls deep into his ass and fill him with warm cum.
you husband lays flat against you like a puppet without strings as you both try to catch your breath. he lifts himself from your shoulder to stare down at you with so much tenderness. only you had the privilege to see your husband in such a mess. a mess that you had created to perfection.
you felt yourself grin as your husband starts to slowly ride you again, making your cock harden just minutes after your previous session. your handsome man was just as greedy as you. if not more.

hey daddy, could I get a subby nanami fic with some gentle sex? Maybe it's the reader and his anniversary night? with lots of praise, riding, and nanami as a pretty pillow prince plzzz <33
âŽââ˘Â°â°â˘ââŽ- lmao, of course
âŽââ˘Â°â°â˘ââŽ- Nanami Kento x Male Reader
âŽââ˘Â°â°â˘ââŽ-Cw: mention of daddy kink but itâs used once, creampie, overstimulation, praise, anal, fingering and blowjobs
Being Kentoâs husband was an easy task. He was the definition of a perfect man. All the acts of service he did for you really sealed the deal. Whether it would be climbing Mount Everest for you all the way to cleaning the dishes for you, he would do it with all the same effort.
It was currently your twoâs anniversary night and Kento made it clear there would be no overtime tonight. He decided to stop at the bakery to pick up the cake he ordered for you two as he then got into his car and drove home. Everyone wondered where that sweet man was going in such a hurry so happily, and he didnât say much.
âJust going home to my husband, itâs our anniversary.â Heâd say in his usual tenor tone but with a small smile on his lips. Though, they really didnât know the 7:3 sorcerer how you did. They didnât know every time he excused himself to the bathroom he was fingering the life out of himself while sending you photos of the aftermath.
Pictures of a messy disheveled suit, dazed hazel eyes and blonde locks slipping down to his face. The more lewder ones consisted of pictures of his leaking cock, pre cum slipping down the shaft all the way to his full balls. Then the ones of his slick fingers shining with spit, plump ass spread so you could see his toyed-with hole. No one knew that about Kento, and no one would know except you.
He finally pulled into the garage as he kicked off his shoes and set the cake on the counter. He then set up the rose petals so youâd see them whenever you came home. He quickly showered so he smelled fresh, more delectable for you. He sat on the satin sheets waiting with his cock standing in attention as he played with himself teasingly.
ââââââââŽââ˘Â°â°â˘â⎠âââââââ
You smiled to yourself as you entered the house to see the royally decorated cake. As you took your shoes off you couldnât help but notice the smell of roses alongside the hot temperature of the house. You glanced over to the thermostat and saw the degrees were higher then usual making you feel all bothered. You walked over to the stairs pausing at the rose petals.
You smirked to yourself realizing what this was as you began walking up the stairs. Head getting cloudier after every step. When you made it to the bedroom you saw Kento on the bed with a silk robe loosely hanging on his body. He stood up as he immediately buried his face into your neck with a shaky inhale.
âMiss me prince?â You smiled teasingly as Kento led you to the bed before slipping between your legs. He immediately unbuckled your slacks as he pull out your hard cock. Mouth enveloping your shaft with sloppy precision.
âShit- someoneâs eager.â You spoke with a breathless chuckle as he slurped at your length. Head bobbing up and down. Kento was a patient man, but this blowjob was anything but it. He usually had so much technique when it went about pleasuring you.
Now, he was just going at it with no care in the world except making you cum. It was so pleasing to see how such a reserved and calm man could lose his patience when it came to you. You slipped your hands up to his blonde locks as you begin ramming yourself into his mouth. He gagged loudly, tears welling up on pretty long lashes.
âShhhh, breathe through the nose. Doing so good⌠let me use you baby.â You praised, contrasting with the harsh treatment of his body. He gripped your thighs as his eyes crossed when he peered up at you. Your orgasm quickly washed over you at the sight of his fucked out face as you brought him down to the hilt.
He inhaled the scent of you as he swallowed every drop you so graciously gave him. You pulled out slowly as he let out a small choked out noise. Throat no longer bulging with your cock lodged down it. You smiled softly at him as his swollen spit covered lips quivered in anticipation.
He climbed atop the bed as you slipped your fingers down to his hole seeing already prepped. âGuess you werenât joking with those videos you sent huh?â You questioned with a teasing tone as he nodded. âNeeded you.. couldnât even cum.â
He spoke in a frustrated tone as you cooed. âCouldnât hit deep enough huh sweetie?â You spoke with a smirk as you slid two fingers inside with ease, feeling around his walls. He threw his head back as he almost came on the spot. You began scissoring him as you kept hitting his prostate.
âSweetheart⌠need more of youâŚâ He pleaded as he grabbed your arm. You tilted your head. âWhat would that be honey?â You asked with a sickly sweet tone. A tone of mock and smugness. Kento was a good boy, when you asked for answer, heâd give it.
âNeed your d-dick⌠been thinking about it all day.â He spoke softly to which you kissed him passionately. You looked into his eyes before you hummed. âOkay then.â You lay down on the bed, back against the pillows as he looked over confusedly.
âRide me. Itâs only fair since you made me so hard at work today because you couldnât keep it in your pants.â You retorted as he was reminded of his desperate display. He mentally cursed himself now for sending those videos, he didnât want to ride you! He wanted to be pampered with his face shoved into the pillows while you fucked him!
But, he knew better then to disobey you. He slid his leg over you as he straddled you. He leaned up on his knees as he put your cock against his hole. With slow calculated movements he slowly began to slide down on your shaft.
When he bottomed out you two both let out content moans. You gave a smack to his ass as you smirked. âWell? Ride.â You retorted as he put his hands up onto your chest with a desperate look. He began rocking his hips back and forth with needy movements, letting out wanting moans as you shuffled around his guts.
Slow and steady grinding movements is what Kento did. You looked up at him with a soft smile, the sight of your husband so desperate, so needy, was adorable. You tracked your eyes from his face, down to his body as you observed with a noise of interest. You then put your hands on his soft hips as you looked up at him.
âGo faster.â You demanded as he let out a whine. His thighs burned as he tried to pick up the speed. The feeling of your cock impaling his prostate with every slow drag of his hips. He was already so close while you were telling him to go faster.
âI- ah, hmmmphhhhâŚâ He bit his lip as his eyes rolled back. You let out a grunt as you felt his walls vice your cock making you almost whine. You glanced down to see his flushed cock dripping onto your stomach, painting it in his fluid. You raised a soft eyebrow as a small smile graced your face at the pathetic display.
âOh gosh- honey, Iâm so sorry.. I-I, you were just hitting me so deep and I hah-â he let out a noise of surprise as you slipped out, turning him over to lay on the fluffy pillows. You immediately saw the apologetic look slip out as his hazel eyes glazed over. He lost all train of thought as you smiled softly.
âWell, daddyâs gotta cum right? And although it was so hot to see how you rode him⌠he needs to feel you deeper and faster okay baby boy?â You asked softly as you slipped back into him with ease, toes curling as he wrapped his long legs around your torso.
You wasted no time pounding your beloved into the mattress, and he wasted no time as his eyes rolled back and he began crying and whining. Kento was always such a baby when it came to being pampered. You leaned in as you kissed his tears away before leaning down to kiss him fervently. You couldnât resist the urge to tease him by biting his tongue just a bit.
You pulled back as you let out a groan, a telltale sign you were close. And by the way Kentoâs eyes were rolled back into his head and the feeling of his walls twitched, so was he. You slid a hand down as you squeezed his shaft as you began stroking. You felt him tighten as you pulsed.
âCum for me love..â you spoke into his ear as he let out a sob of pleasure. He painted your stomach and chest once more with his cum as you painted his insides with your own. You lay on top of him for a moment as you caught your breath. Kento shakily breathed as you slipped out of him, you replaced yourself with your fingers in hope to prevent the sheets from getting soaked with your fluids.
Eventually you lay beside him as you both caught your breath. âHappy anniversary baby.â You smiled softly kissing his cheek. He glanced over to you with heavy lidded eyes as a soft smile graced his face. âHappy anniversaryâŚâ He repeated as he wrapped his arms around you.

Summary: A series of occasions when the JJK sorcerers required your comforting embrace ...
(x Reader)
Featuring: Gojo, Kusakabe, Nanami and Ijichi.
Genre: Fluff, romance, humour.
CW: Suggestive language.
"On a scale of 10 to 11, how blue do my eyes look this morning?"
"Satoru, what do you want?"
One arm raised, elbow crooked in nonchalant allure against the doorframe, Satoru blinks in feigned innocence. He shifts such that the torso-hugging shirt he has on slides against each defined line of his pectorals.
"I just wanna know. It's nice to hear how handsome I am, from time to time."
"Seriously?"
He cradles his chin between thumb and forefinger.
"I mean, my jawline alone can cut diamonds - "
"Come here."
He grins, having conveyed his message clearly, if a tad ham-handedly. Elbow dropping from the doorframe, he steps into the bedroom, his tall frame stooping until his nose is level with yours.
If you intended to initiate anything at all, you can shelve that idea. Satoru's arms are already sliding around your waist, drawing you impossibly close. His face drops to your shoulder, blowing a playful puff of air against you before he presses into the crook of your neck.
He feels solid in your arms, present. A cloud of pale hair, silky and fragrant, drifts across your vision. The scent of him is warm, vital, alive. You trace gently across the contours of his back before your embrace finally encloses him, feeling his exhale blow heatedly against your skin.
These are the rare occasions when he seeks you out for reassurance under the guise of mischievous ribbing, when he grounds himself in the staid, reliable nature of your presence, when he needs you.
Slowly parting from him, you glance up at the slightly muted brilliance of his glance, the softness that hovers at the edges of that almost ethereal countenance.
"Ready for work?"
"I am now."
You pat him solidly in the middle of his chest, resting your palm there for a minute before pushing him towards the door. The residual humidity of his breath lingers on your throat.
"Now hurry up and go, before I get sliced with that lethal jawline."
"And then I said, why the heck can't we just take the safe route, not track through the fucking woods in pitch darkness, with a hurricane lamp that could attract every goddamn curse in the region - "
Atsuya cuts off, the scrape of the blade through the lather on his chin punctuating each point he deemed significant.
" - but of course, they didn't wanna hear it. "That's what sorcerers do, they take the dark path." Ha. They can take that poetic allegory shit and shove it."
You complete the task of drying yourself, fingers tracing lightly over the muscled wall of his back as you pass him, reaching for the hairdryer plugged into the wall just outside.
"Were there any injuries?"
"Miwa got a few scratches, but nothing serious."
He rinses off the blade, white foam circling around the drain of the sink before raising his arm again, skin appearing through the curtain of white on the sharp edges of his cheek.
"I told those kids before, you can't rely on anyone else. In a sticky situation, you gotta analyse the environment, know your opponent, observe their abilities, think and act at the same time - "
The noise of the hairdryer temporarily drowns out his voice, and he turns slightly as he sees your smile. You reach for him with your free arm, hair blowing across your face, and he grunts in amusement.
"I've still got shaving cream all over - "
"And when has that ever stopped you?"
No further convincing is needed because Atsuya's bare chest is now against your back, his arms coming up and around your middle, strong fingers linking securely over your abdomen. The coarse scattering of hair across his torso tickles between your shoulder blades. The heat of him is intoxicating, as always.
You squirm slightly in his grasp as the cool shaving cream smears across your shoulder, where he rests his chin, the dim light of the bathroom temporarily shading the green of his eyes to a subtle olive. Prickles of stubble, tender as the new growth of shoots in spring, sink into your still-damp skin.
You turn off the hairdryer, for now. You can't help yourself when your Atsuya is this close, the clean, warm scent of him wrapping around you, infinitely soft. You press your lips in a trail across his cheek, watching as his eyes close, as the rigidity of his powerful shoulders ease under your ministrations.
Drawing away, you see his eyes flick sideways at you, and you can feel the laugh that reverberates like low thunder through his chest. Your face is smeared with white.
"If you wanted to shave too, you should have just said so."
"What if I said I borrowed one of your shaving blades for my legs?"
"No wonder they're so silky smooth."
"Not as smooth as that tongue of yours."
"And you're the first person who's ever thought so."
Kento had been pristine, as always, when he'd left home. You'd seen his clothes prepared the previous day, the suit and shirt hung neatly against the closet, socks laid aside, shoes polished to high shine.
You'd watched him comb back his hair that morning, your fingers gently caressing his undercut as you'd made your way to the kitchen to deal with breakfast. You'd watched the small smile curve the corner of his mouth as he'd fastened his watch in place.
Orderly and somewhat fastidious, was your Kento, punctual to a fault, even in the way he kissed you at exactly 8 am at the door, the Jujutsu Tech vehicle waiting outside to swallow him into its cool, dim interior.
His lips had lingered softly on yours, as always, stealing moments from the impatient clock on the wall behind you. You'd straightened his tie, one palm smoothing the slightly hollowed cheek (which had filled out a little recently with your cooking) and then you'd stepped back and treasured the softening of his eyes before the glasses were placed firmly on the bridge of his nose.
So, it was with a sense of growing concern that you watched the same clock that had governed your separation that morning. He was three hours late, and counting. He'd managed to send a brief message earlier that day, that things were gearing up to be a little troublesome. Still, you worried.
You always had.
At 10 pm, the sound of the key slotting into the latch heralds his return. Kento pushes the door open, a heavy sigh reaching your ears as you approach.
He is no longer pristine.
His hair hangs down to his eyes, greasy and disshevelled, the tie nowhere to be seen. His shirt is stained and crusted with darker patches under the arms and across his chest and back. His pants are ripped and you see the bandages beneath where he must have received treatment already. His tired eyes meet yours, and you hold out your arms to him. A soft laugh sounds against the noise of the pot bubbling on the stove.
"I'm filthy. And covered in - "
"Do you see me complaining? No more questions, love."
He grumbles good naturedly, but you know that he not-so-secretly loves it when you take charge at home.
In one stride, he is within the welcoming bracket of your arms, head drooping tiredly against the softness of your chest. He is tall enough that the position is slightly awkward, but he has anchored himself to you for support, and you brace your knees as you take his weight.
He smells of sweat, dirt and something damp and unpleasant that reminds you distinctly of a sewer. You smile and bury your nose into his hair, the unique, masculine scent of him, of Kento, now cutting through the other distractions.
You hold him like this, cradling his head close, whispering soft endearments meant only for his ears, until the stretch in his spine wears him out. He rouses from your embrace, eyes puffy and a trifle unfocused. Long lashes brush slowly together and he yawns.
"Had a good rest there?"
His voice rumbles delightfully through your frame where you are still pressed together, mellow and slightly slurred within the familiarity of these walls.
"A most peaceful one."
You tap the area where his head had been a few moments ago.
"Would you like to rent this space out, sir? It's available, every evening after five."
There it is, that quiet, mischievous smile, the one that spreads tender crow's feet at the corners of his eyes.
"Only after I've inspected it thoroughly, ma'am."
You pause in the doorway. Kiyotaka is pacing the courtyard outside, phone balanced between shoulder and ear. He flips aggravatedly through the folder in his hands.
"Yes, yes, I understand - No - I will - Listen, please. Yes, company cars are expensive, I know better than anyone. However, forcing a trainee to shoulder the full burden of compensation just because he - "
He notices you, out of the corner of his eye. You wave to him and gesture to the files in your hand. He gives a harried nod before a frown marrs his brow.
"No, no, I don't think the fact that he saw a spirit and screamed like a little girl, as you put it, affects his level of accountability in any way. Our policy states that - "
In two quick paces, you reach him, snatching the phone out of his hand. Barking sharply at the person on the other end, you complete his statement.
"Our policy clearly indicates that trainees are exempt from damages incurred during any coursework. And that includes driving. Goodbye."
Ending the call, you huff out an annoyed breath before handing the phone gently back to him. He sighs and you see his glance hover sideways, alighting on the files you're holding. You dismiss his concerns with a wave of your hand.
"Oh, these can wait. Don't worry. How about we go in and have some coffee?"
"Actually ..."
"Yes?"
"I'dratherhaveahug."
"Pardon?"
"I'd ... rather have a hug."
"Oh!"
Your eyes widen slightly as you drop the files haphazardly on a nearby bench. Ijichi eyes them worriedly.Â
"Wait, what if the wind - "
"Then we'll say Fushiguro's dogs ate them."
"Eh?"
You laugh at his bewildered expression before tugging lightly on his tie, drawing him close. A flush steals over his cheeks, as you lean in and brush your nose against his, fingers slipping from the tie to the surprisingly strong line of his shoulders.
"Here's the hug you ordered."
"W - Well, yes, but let's be - "
He cuts off as you wrap your arms tightly around his neck, one hand sliding stealthily under his coat to caress his back. You feel his Adam's apple bob as he returns the gesture, relaxing slightly into the embrace as his breathing evens out, stirring your hair slightly.
You both stay this way for some time, as the wind whistles in the corners between the statues all around you, mercifully leaving the files intact. You lean back and are about to release him when his hand clasps firmly on the small of your back, and he dips you, smiling as your delighted laugh echoes within the enclosed yard.
As he draws you back up into a brief kiss, you marvel at his sudden bravery. But then again, this is what you love most about Kiyotaka. As shy, anxious, stressed and fatigued as he is (mostly), there was a side to him that always warmed you pleasantly when your thoughts drifted to him.
He was the man who brought you regional treats from wherever his job happened to take him, who made sure that you were safe at all hours of the day, who would pursue you with an umbrella when you'd forgotten yours, who ensured that you'd eaten on time, even when he was swamped with work.
As you separate, you see that in spite of his daring, debeonair action, his ears have turned a startling shade of scarlet. You pinch one of them lightly and smirk.
"Looks like you've been eating spicy food again."
He clears his throat.
"The only spicy thing I've consumed is ... you."
Slapping a hand against your chest in feigned shock, you gasp theatrically.
"Why, Kiyotaka! How positively scandalous!"
A rare grin crosses his tired features.
"If you really want to see scandalous, you should have a look at Yaga's internet search history."
A/n: Is this finally being created after @itsscromp finally got my brain worms wiggling again? Yes. Is this also a get better fic? Yes. Is it an entire script for a move? Also yes.
Yes, it's also just shy of 20K words so... This half of the post is only about 12K. If you like httyd/cod crossovers you've come to the right place. But if you want to give it a chance and have a shit ton of free time. I'd also be honored.
Hiccup: Y/n. Astrid: Ghost. Fishlegs: Gaz. Ruff/Tuff: Soap. Snotlout: Graves.
I will reblog with the second half of the fic. Cred for the divider used goes to @straywords
This is Berk. It's twelve days north of Hopeless, and a few degrees south of Freezing to Death.
It's located solidly on the Meridian of Misery.
My village. In a word, sturdy. And it's been here for seven generations, but, every single building is new. We have fishing, hunting, and a charming view of the sunsets.
The only problems are the pests. Even if they carry away all our food⌠You see, most places have mice or mosquitoes. We haveâŚ
Y/n opens the door of the large house structure, watching Vikings go running by, a monstrous nightmare stalking across the ground, talons digging into the stone. It turned it's gaze on the door, letting out a stream of fire from its gut.Â
Y/n quickly slams the door shut as fire flicked up between the cracks and fades into dark smoke.
-dragons. Most people would leave. Not us. We're Vikings. We have, stubbornness issues.Â
Y/n rushed outside, smoke billowing into the clouds from the fire torching into the wooden buildings.
My name's Y/n. Great name, I know. But, it's not the worst. Parents believe a hideous name will frighten off gnomes and trolls. Like our charming Viking demeanor wouldn't do that.
Y/n falls back against the ground with an earth quaking tremor as another dragon flies into the area. Several Vikings greeting them. You. This is you. Flabby skin tight arms wrapped around thin layers of barely noticeable muscle.
Clothes seeming too big and too small, hands as soft as a newborn despite the experience in the forge. The only place you ever seem to be helpful no doubt.Â
What a life a Viking like you lives. You're bloody useless! Even a newborn baby could wield an axe better than you could.
You rush up one of the paths along the hills of Berk, multiple Vikings looking at your sorry figure and asking why you were out during a dragon attack. You only ever caused trouble. When you weren't being useless you were being an expensive clumsy step.
âWhat are you doing here!?â One Viking says before you rush past.
âWhat are you doinâ out??â Another.
âGet back inside!!â
You're grabbed up swiftly by the collar of your shirt, your stubby feet dangling above the ground. A dragon's fiery breath drawing a line in the road, barely were you saved from its wrath.
âY/n?! What are they doing out again-?!â He looked at you, baffled. âWhat are you doing out?! Get inside!â
That's Stoick the Vast. Chief of the tribe. They say that when he was a baby, he popped a dragon's head clean off of its shoulders.Â
You watch as the large burly man grabs a cart along the road, swinging it and throwing it violently at a deadly Nadder in the sky. The dragon struggled and went down as it burst into splinters.
 Do I believe it? Yes, I do.
While the others rush to the scene to take the dragons on, you cower and rush into the smithing shop nestled near the middle of the town road. The only place not burnt down by now.
Immediately putting on an apron and stumbling about.
âOh, nice of you to join the party, I thought you'd been carried off!â
You turned briefly to another large man, his appendages having some work done, what with missing both an arm and a leg. Always wondered what kept him alive⌠it clearly wasn't his limbs.
âWhat, who me? Nah, come on! I'm waaaay too muscular for their taste. They wouldn't know what to do with allâŚâ Your lack of any muscle is incredibly. Being born into the generation you were, how you managed to stay the same length and width of a stick was quite the sight. â...this.â
You moved a rather large weapon and opened the smithing window, a Viking immediately grabbing a weapon from the desk before you could take them back to the smelter.
He hums. âWell, they need toothpicks, don't they?âÂ
You roll your eyes a tad and sigh.
The meat-head with attitude and interchangeable hands is Gobber. I've been his apprentice ever since I was little. Well... littler.
You look out the smithing window as Stoick tackles another dragon. A dragon landing on another roof and blowing fire into the scorching wood. It crumbling beneath its talons.
See? Old village, lots and lots of new houses.
âFIRE!!â A Viking shouted, followed by four teen rushing out with buckets of water.
Oh, and that's Gaz, Graves, Soap, and... Ghost. Oh, their job is so much cooler.
You watch the group walk from a fiery explosion as Vikings pass by, led by the snappiest rackater of them all.Â
Ghost may have been a hard head who bullied your entire existence in a subtle way that made you feel like you were the problem, but that didn't matter.Â
Graves was a real hard ass. Always following said lead teen around like he was gonna get a chance for even a morcel. Considering no respecting person in the village would take thatâŚ
There was Soap. They say he had a twin, but, had. Considering no one knows what happened or where said twin ended up. Easiest to say Odin didn't want them to live the hardships.
Or they got eaten by a dragon.Â
Gaz, well, no one really knew what his problem was. He was a tad odd, but damn smart, and somehow more popular than you, skellington.
You lean out the smithing window, a hooked hand pulling you back in. âOh come on! Please, let me out! I need to make my mark!â
âOh you've made marks all right, in all the wrong places!â
âPlease, two minutes. I'll kill a dragon. My life will get infinitely better. I might even get noticed!â
âYou can't lift a hammer, you can't swing an axe, you can't even throw one of these!â Gobber lifts a bola to express his exasperation, only for it to be pulled from his hook and thrown at a dragon, taking it down.
âOkay, fine, but this will throw it for me!â You smiled excitedly rushing back into the shop, showing off your cool canon mechanism.
âSee, now this right here is what I'm talking about!â Gobber sighed, exasperated. Watching you fiddle with your contraption.
âMild calibration issue-â You fiddled with some levers and the string on the draw.
âDon't you- no- Y/n. If you ever want to get out there to fight dragons, you need to stop all... this.â He gestured vaguely to you, looking you up and down.
âBut you just pointed to all of me?â
âYes, exactly! Stop being you.â Gobber smiled, thinking you were getting it. Poking you in the chest.
âOoohâŚâ
âOoooh, yes.â
âYou sir, are playing a dangerous game. Keeping this much, raw... Viking-ness... contained? THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES.â You pointed your finger up, brow turning down angrily.
Gobber looked bored at you. âI'll take my chances. Sword. Sharpen. Now.â He dumped the sword into your frail hands, leaving you to your devices.
One day, I'll get out there. Because, killing a dragon, is everything around here.
You can look out the smithing window while you put the sword on the grindstone, sparks flying from the blade as you contemplate your options of execution.
A Nadder head is sure to get you at least noticed. Gronckles are tough. Taking down one of those would definitely get you the spot light. A Zippleback? Exotic. Two heads, twice the status.
And then, there's the Monstrous Nightmare. Only the best Vikings go after those. They have this nasty habit of setting themselves on fire.
You watched from the window as one crawled up the wall of the tower and onto a catapult, lighting itself up and scaring off the Viking manning the device.
Stoick slamming his hammer into its face to ward it off from the top of the tower.
But the ultimate prize is the dragon no one has ever seen. We call it the-
There's a high pitched whistle across the sky. Vikings retreating desperately as they call out.
âNIGHT FURY! GET DOWN!â The Vikings rush to get down. From nowhere a catapult is torn apart with a plasma blast.
This thing never steals food, never shows itself, and... never misses. No one has ever killed a Night Fury. That's why you're going to be the first.
âMan the fort, Y/n. They need me out there!â He attaches an ax piece to his hand, rushing to the door.
âStay. Put. There. You know what I mean.â Gobber runs off, leaving you in the shop. You tore off your apron and ran back to your catapult set up. Steering it out the doors and running up the hill along the catapults.Â
Vikings yelling at you to get back and go inside. You can't be trusted outside when the island is in chaos. They can't trust you not to make chaos.
âY/n!â One yelled.
âI know! I'll be right back!â You led your catapult on wheels up the old path, Stoick pinning down a group of Nadders.Â
The others fought while you reached the edge of the cliff. Looking out at the darkness, a surprisingly peaceful corner of the island away from the chaos feet away.
You opened the catapult and set it up, the small aiming needle and the leader strap that held in the bola aiming around. You looked at the night sky, out at all the stars.
âCome on⌠Give me something to shoot at, give me something to shoot at.â
You watched the sky. Hearing the low cry of the dragon. Seeing the dark figure blacking out the stars, the only possible way you could see the creature that blended so easily into the night.
Attempting to track the shadow with the scope of your catapult.
You heard the dragon make its move, dive bombing from the sky and shooting a plasma blast into a nearby fire, knocking the tower down. As it cleared the explosion you clenched your eyes shut and pulled the trigger.
The catapult blasted you back on your butt, hearing the cry as the creature went down.Â
You hit it. For once in your miniscule life you hit it!! A dragon!! A night fury!!
âI hit it!! Yes! Did anybody see that??â You turned around, a monstrous nightmare creeping up on you, its narrowed face making it look like a devilish thing.
âExcept⌠for you.âÂ
It growled at you and you screamed, attracting the attention of Stoick. He sighed in exasperation, pulling away from the tied down Nadder heads. âDO NOT let them escape!â He commanded some others as he rushed to your aid.
You ran and stumbled from the dragon that stalked after you, firing at you. Hiding behind a pillar as your heart pounded in your chest.
You just killed a dragon and now you're dead. You're a goner. Oh you should have stayed inside.
It blasted a fiery blaze against the pillar, and you briefly squeezed your eyes shut. Slowly forcing one open and inching around the corner.Â
The dragon growled as its head turned, coming around from behind you. Before it could fire, Stoick slammed his fist into its face, getting the attention onto him.
It belched out the last of its flame, looking weakly down at the splatter and up at Stoick.
âYou're all out of juice.â He clenched his fists and punched the monstrous nightmare, bullying it until it retreated desperately back into the night.
You tensed up, feeling the burning hot metal of the pillar crunch and crumble. The wooden pole leaning and the flaming bowl of coals on top spilled as it toppled. Falling to the side and crashing into a fire gust of ashes into a small pool of water.
Vikings gathered around you as you timidly looked up at Stoick.
Oh, and there's one other thing you should knowâŚ
A woman cried and gasped, the coals flickering and landing across the ground and the dirt. Your shoulders tensing and rising with each noise. Slowly turning to Stoick who did not look happy.
âSorry⌠dad..â
You and the others all watched as the dragons flew by, the sound of the sheep they'd captured from the island sounding off as they left.Â
Slowly pursing your lips you turned to your father. âOk but I hit a night fury-â
Stoick grabbed you by the back of your collar, dragging you off effortlessly.
âAh! It's not like the last few times, dad! I really actually hit it.â
âYou guys weren't around. I was alone when I hit it. I had a clear shot.âÂ
Gobber watched regretfully as you were dragged. âIt fell just off Ravens point I say let's get a search party out there-â
âStop!â Stoick interrupted you, making you purse your lips again silently as he now stood you in front of him. âJust stop.â
âEvery time you get out, trouble follows. Can't you see I have bigger problems?? Winter is almost here, and I have an entire village to feed.â
An awkward pause before you speak. âWell between you and me the village could use a little less of that? No?â
A Viking behind you silently disagrees as he rubs his round stomach. No, no, the village can stay well fed. They like it.
âThis is not a joke! Y/n!â Stoick sighs. âWhy can't you just follow the simplest of orders??â
You bounce on your feet. âI-I can't stop myself. I see a dragon and I have to just kill it.â You twist your hands, looking up at him.Â
Yeah, right. Like you could ever kill a dragon.Â
âIt's who I am, dad.â You say, sighing. You're full of crap.
Stoick rubs his face. âEy⌠you are many things y/n, but a dragon killer? Is not one of them⌠get back to the house.â
He looks up at Gobber, motioning him. âMake sure they get there.â
Gobber comes over and gently hits your head.Â
âI have their mess to clean upâŚâ Stoick walks past as Gobber leads you sulking home.
To make things worse you passed the other teens, Soap snickering with Gaz. âQuite the performance.â Gaz commented.
âWow, I've never seen someone mess up that badly.â Graves leaned in your face. âThat helped.â
You sulked by, noticing Ghost admiring his axe in the background, leaned up against the stone ledge.
âThank you, thank you. I was trying.â
As you pass Gober grips Graves helmet and shoves him back, making him choke. âOw-!â
You two walk back to the house, your annoyance stewing. âI really did hit one.â
âSure you did.â
âHe never listens.â
âIt runs in the family.â Gobber replied.
âAnd when he does it's always with this disappointed scowl, like someone skimped on the meat in his sandwich.â
You turn just before the door, making a mock impression of your father, raising your eyebrows in anger. âExcuse me, barmaid! I'm afraid you brought me the wrong offspring.âÂ
You raise your arms in annoyance, doing wild gestures. âI ordered an extra large boy with beefy arms. Extra guts and glory on the side. This here, this is a talking fishbone!â
âNow, you're thinking about this all wrong. It's not so much what you look like, it's what's inside that he can't stand.â Gobber offers you a smile, to which your expression drops.
You sigh flatly. âThank you for summing that up.â
âLook, I'm trying to tell you to stop trying to be what you're not.â Gobber says as you open the door to the house.
âI just.. wanna be one of you guys..â You say, closing the door behind you.Â
Gobber sighs sadly, starting to leave, giving you space.
All the space you needed to sneak out of the back of the house. Immediately rushing down the back of the hill the house was set onâŚ
âEither we finish them, or they'll finish us! It's the only way we'll be rid of them! If we find the nest and destroy it, the dragons will leave. They'll find another home! One more search. Before the ice sets in.âÂ
Stoick looks around the Meade hall, slamming his knife into a map on the table, seeing all the hesitation.Â
âThose ships never come back!â One Viking calls out from the end of the long table.
âWe're Vikings, it's an occupational hazard. Now who's coming with me?â
âToday's not good for me. I've gotta do my axe returns.â One mumbles.
Stoick leans back from the table. âAlright. Those who stay behind can look after y/n.â
Immediately every hand at the table went up. And Stoick nodded. âThatâs more like it.â
Gobber sat at the table, finishing off a tankard of drink. âAlright, I'll pack my undies.â
Stoick came over to him, sitting next to him at the table. âNo, I need you to stay here and train some new recruits.â
Gobber mulls over his cup, before replying sarcastically. âOh, perfect. And while I'm busy, Y/n can cover the stall. Molten steel, razor sharp blades, lots of time to themself... what could possibly go wrong?â
Stoick sighed, slouching slightly. âWhat am I going to do with them, Gobber?â
âPut them in training like the others.â
âNo, I'm serious.â
âSo am I.âÂ
They look at each other, Stoick leaning his arm on the table. âThey'd be killed before you let the first dragon out of its cage!â
âYou don't know that.â Gobber goes back to his drink.
âI do, actually.â
âNo, you don't.â Gobber points a finger at him.
âListen, you know what their like.â He got up from the table. âFrom the time they could crawl, they've been⌠different.â
He walked around the table by the fire against the wall.
âThey don't listen,â Gobber chokes on his drink as he listens. âThey have the attention span of a sparrow.â Stoick goes on.
Gobber looks into his drink for his missing tooth which he previously choked on.
Stoick is still on. âI take them fishing and they go hunting for- for trolls!â
âTrolls are real!â Gobber points his drink arm at Stoick. âThey steal your socks. But only the left ones⌠what's with that??â
Stoick sighs. âWhen I was a boy.â
âOh here we go.âÂ
âMy father told me to bang my head against a rock and I did it. I thought it was crazy, but I didn't question him.âÂ
Stoick turns. âYou know what happened??â
âYou got a headache.â
âThat rock split in two. It taught me what a Viking could do, Gobber. He could- He could crush mountains, level forests, tame seas!â He gestures loud. âEven as a boy, I knew what I was, what I had to become.âÂ
Stoick goes and sits at the table again, slouching. âY/n is not that kid.â
âYou can't stop them, Stoick. You can only prepare them. Look, I know it seems hopeless.â Gobber gestures his drink arm.
âBut the truth is you won't always be around to protect them. Their going to get out there again. Their probably out there now.â
And he was right. Out the forest at Ravens point, he exasperatedly crossed another X in your book. You'd been searching everywhere for this damn dragon, eventually giving up.
âOh the gods hate meâŚâ you snapped the book shut. âSome people lose their knife or their mug, not me.â
You scuff your feet. âI manage to lose an entire dragon.â You walk down the path, angrily slapping a tree branch that comes right back at you.
Turning your attention to the part of the part that is disturbed. A large dirt train plowed through the land.Â
You frown, following it up to a small hill. As you climb it, your eyes land sight of the dragon. You gasp, your heart racing as you immediately duck down.Â
Your eyes go wide as you hide behind the mound, panting. What do you do?? What do you do??
You sat up, immediately searching for your knife. Grabbing it out shakily and holding it like your life depended on it.
You slid down the hill, hiding behind a large rock before poking out. Seeing the dragon tied up and caught in the net you'd flung it into.Â
You disastrous human. How could you? How could you do this?
You smiled though, shocked, in pure shock. âOh wow, this- this fixes everything!â You walked over, putting your foot on its shoulder. âI have brought down this mighty beast-â
The dragon bellows in pain, shrugging its shoulder to push you off, making you jump and scramble back.
You shake and pant as you hold your knife out in front of you, walking closer. You can see the dragon's blue green eyes on you, staring at you.
âI'm going to kill you, dragon. I'm gonna cut out your heart and take it to my father. I'm a Viking. I am a VIKING!â You hold the knife down, pointed at the beast.
The night fury breathes heavily, clearly scared as it stares at you with a sharp gaze, awaiting its horrific fate.
You raise the knife above your head, steeling yourself for the moment, peeling an eye open to look down at the dragon. It still stared at you, helpless, and scared.
You readjust the knife, taking a deep breath. The dragon moans, laying its head down and closing its eyes. Scared, but knowing it's fate.Â
And that breaks you. It's the last noise of distress going unheeded to any cruel human that would have found him.Â
You attempted to shoo the thought and claim its life, but instead.. you couldn't. You groaned, slumping the knife handle to the top of your head.Â
You slumped, rubbing the side of your face and looking at the knife, then the dragon. No, no you couldn't do this.Â
âI did thisâŚâ You slowly back up, returning to leave, but looking back at those ropes.Â
You went back, and you started to cut. The dragonâs eyes shot open in an instant, looking over as you sawed the blade through the ropes and pulled it free.Â
As soon as the last rope that freed its legs was off, it jumped at you, growling in your face as it pushed you to the ground.
Your head hit the edge of the rock as its claw kept your chest pinned. You gasped for air, looking up at the dragon, into its sharp eyes.Â
The dragon growled down at you as you leaned your face away, your heart pounding. The dragon leaned his arm off your chest, slamming you down and roaring in your face.Â
It turned and dashed, flying off, taking off lopsided and flying into a tree. It wailed when it hit the ground and then tried to take off again, wailing in pain as it flew into the fog.
You slowly reached for your knife, clutching your heart as your eyes remained blown wide.Â
You tried to stand, your knees shaking like a deer and weak. You felt wheezy and like you would vomit at any moment. Not making it far before hitting the ground with a thud and falling unconscious.
It was late by the time you came home, walking into the house to see your father, Stoick stoking the fire, waiting for you.
You slowly closed the door, seeing him and attempting to rush by and head upstairs. Going full hands and knees rushed, but it was futile.Â
âY/n.â
âDad, uhâŚâ You swallowed awkwardly, your thoughts immediately rushing back to earlier that day and the shit you'd probably get into if he knew you let a night fury freeâŚ
âI uh, have to talk to you, dadâŚâ
Stoick stood, coming over. âI have to talk to you too, y/n.â
Both of you took deep breaths.
âI've decided I don't want-â
âI've decided it's time you learn-â
âTo fight dragons. What??â
Stoick clears his throat. âYou go first.â
âNo, no you go first.â You started to sweat a little, gripping the stairs, feeling your collar getting tight.
âAll right.â Stoick sighs, massaging his knuckles. âYou get your wish. Dragon training. You start in the morning.â
âOh, man, I should've gone first!â You panicked a lot, shifting from foot to foot awkwardly, looking away.
âUh, 'cause I was thinking, you know, we have a surplus of dragon-fighting Vikings, but do we have enough⌠bread-making Vikings, or small home repair Vikings-?â
Stoick leaned over, picking up an axe. âYou'll need this.â He hands it to you, making you huff with the weight on your incredibly toothpick durability, q-tip quality arms.
âGah-â you panicked, looking at him worriedly. âDad, I don't want to kill dragons.â You protested.Â
Stoick laughed. âOf course you do.â
âRephrase⌠Dad, I can't kill dragons.â you held the axe, your legs weak and your stomach churning sickeningly with the thought of being ignored in this.
âBut you will kill dragons.â
Your worry grows, gripping the axe. âNo, I'm very extra sure that I won't.â
âIt's time Y/n.â
âCan you not hear me!?â You ask desperately and exasperated.
âThis is serious, y/n.â
He gestured. âWhen you carry this axe, you carry all of us with you.â Stoick picks the axe up from your arms and adjusts it.Â
âWhich means you walk like us.â He bunches your shoulders together and fixes your slouch. âYou talk like us. You think like us. No more ofâŚ. This.â He gestured vaguely to you.Â
âYou just gestured to all of me.â You pouted.
âDeal??â Stoick asked, making your heart sink at once again being completely ignored.
âThis conversation is feeling very one-sided.â
âDeal!?â Stoick repeats.
âDealâŚâ
âGood.â He nods to you, not even touching you. He picked up his sack for the voyage and his Viking hat.Â
âTrain hard. I'll be back. Probably.â
âAnd I'll be here⌠maybe.â
âWelcome to dragon training.â Gobber says as you all enter the ring. A large stone pit tug into the groups full of armory and cages with chain domed across the top.
Ghost leads the group of teens into the ring, holding his axe firmly in his hand. He looks around, parts of his slightly long blonde hair hanging in front of his sharp brown eyes.
Such a warm color, such a cold stare. âNo turning back.â He said to mostly himself, the others checking out the place.
Oh and there's you in the back. Toothpick.Â
âI hope I get some serious burns.â Graves says.
âYeah, I'm hoping for some maulings. Like on my shoulder or my lower back.â Soap commented with a grin.
Ghost spoke up, tilting his head. âYeah, it's only fun if you get a scar out of it.â He already had a few. From dragon fights? No. But scars nonetheless. He wanted a scar from the dragon's he killed.Â
Even if he would have to force the mark.Â
You mumbled sarcastically from the background. âOh yeah⌠pain, great.. love it..â
They all look back, simultaneously looking at you with disgust, while Ghost just scrunched his nose. âOh great, who let you in??â Graves complains.
âLet's get started! The recruit who does best will win the honor of killing his first dragon in front of the entire village.â Gobber said, motioning you all into the middle of the rock pit. Closer to your doom.
âWell, Y/n already killed a Night Fury, so, does that disqualify him orâŚ?â Graves smirked at you antagonistically.
âCan I transfer to the class with the cool Vikings?â Soap added on to the taunt as they walked away without you.
Gobber got closer to you, smiling softly. âDon't worry. You're small and you're weak. That'll make you less of a target! They'll see you as sick or insane and go after the more Viking-like teens instead.â
With that Gobber explained the essence of dragon training. Behind each of the doors is a dragon. The training sessions will focus on an aspect of fighting. The person last standing against the dragon is to be the winner of the round.
Whoever wins in the end?? You get a brag tag for a good chunk of years.
Gobber went on. âBehind these doors are just a few of the many species you will learn to fight! The Deadly Nadder!âÂ
âSpeed: eight; Armor: sixteen.â Gaz finally spoke up.
âThe Hideous Zippleback!â
âPlus eleven stealth times two.â
âThe Monstrous Nightmare!â
âFirepower: fifteen.â
âThe Terrible Terror!âÂ
âAttack: eight; Venom: twelve!â
âCAN YOU STOP THAT?! And... the Gronckle!â Gobber snapped, getting to the last door. He hooked his interchangeable arm to the latch.Â
âWoah, hang on- aren't you going to teach us first??â Graves asked in disbelief.
Gobber shrugged. âI believe in learning on the job.â
He pulled the door open and released the Gronckle. The others tensed up and watched the thing as it flew toward them, eyeing them all like snacks.
It swallowed some of the rocks set out and blasted it's fiery molten liquid at you four.
âToday is about survival. If you get blasted... you're dead! Quick! What's the first thing you're going to need?â
âA doctor!?â You cried worriedly.
âPlus five speed!?â Gaz countered.
Ghost eyed the dragon, then around the ring. âA shield!âÂ
âShields! Go!â Gobber instructed, Ghost being the first to turn and run for one.Â
âYour most important piece of equipment is your shield! If you must make a choice between a sword or a shield, take the shield!âÂ
You rushed to grab one, picking it up and heaving up the heavy thing. You attempted to find the arm strap, searching rapidly before Gobber came over.Â
Exasperation filled as he lifted it up and shoved it gently into your chest.
Graves grabbed a shield with skulls on it, Soap frowning. âHey!â The only shield left being one with flowers.
âTake that one, that one has flowers.â Graves teased, pouting his lip at Soap.Â
âBut- ah!â Soap was thrown to the ground when the Gronckleâs tail hit him in the side.
âSoap, you're down.â Gobber called.
âWhatâŚ??â
âShields are good for another thing. Making lots of noise. Throw the dragon's aim off!â
You, Ghost, Graves, and Gaz all start banging your shields, the Gronckle's eyes crossing and trying to shake the disorientation off.
âAll dragons have a limited number of shots. How many does a Gronckle have?â Gobber asks.
You all circle around the dragon, it's eyes trying to focus on anything. You rush back to a corner, hiding back behind one of the armor walls, holding your shield in the crack.Â
Pussy.
âUh, five??â Graves replies while he rushes away.
âNo, six!â Gaz counters.Â
âThat's correct. Six. One for each of you.â
The Gronckle gets its surroundings back and blasts molten at Gazâs shield, making him cry with surprise.
âGaz, you're out!â
Gaz gulps and yells as he runs for safely of the out zone.Â
Gobber notices you. âY/n! Get in there!!â
You attempt to move away from your wall only to get a blast thrown at you. Fearing you scuffling back away, Gobber ones over and pushes you into the ring again.
Ghost faced the Gronckle as it came around again, ready to take it down, distributing his weight well.Â
Graves came right up behind him, rolling his shoulders. âSo, anyway I'm moving into my parents' basement. You should come by sometime to work out.â
Ghost rolls his eyes and starts to move, Graves looking surprised. âYou look like you work out!â
The Gronckle fires it's shot for Ghost at Graves, hitting his shield. âGraves! You're done!â
Ghost rolled over next to you, both of you the only two left. You looked nervously over at him. He's so cool. Just a tad taller than you. Lanky but you can see he has muscle definition on his arms.Â
He's just.. ah! A real Viking. That's what your dad wants you to be.
âI uh.. guess it's just you and me now huh?â You ask him nervously.
He glowers before lifting his head. âNope, just you.â He dashes out of the way, the Gronckle fires.Â
âGah!!â You raise your shield to take the blow meant for Ghost. The shield knocks from your hand, barely missing you.Â
Without shield and one shot left you run back for your shield, the Gronckle hot on your track. The shield rolls away from you across the ground, looking back and you panic seeing the dragon right there.
âOne shot left! Y/n!â Gobber calls.
It manages to corner you to the wall. Face right against your chest. Your heart pounds, your limbs feel cold and rigid, and on fire all at once.Â
It opens its mouth and down its throat the molten glow of its last shot, before a hook pulls it away. It blasts it's shot into the wall and you cover your head, curling up.
Gobber drags the dragon back away.
âAnd that's six! Go back to bed, ya overgrown sausage!â He shoves it back into the pen and closes the door.
âYou'll get another chance, don't you worry.â He says to you as he walks back over, bending down. âRemember: a dragon will always- always- go for the kill.â
He grabs your arm and picks you up. You looked at the wall where the charred remains of the burn flickered down the rock inclineâŚ
Leading you back to the site of the crash, your curiosities got to you as you picked up one of the rocks on the bola. Where you'd freed the night fury from.
âSo⌠why didn't you??âÂ
Why hadn't the dragon gone for the kill. You would have stabbed it, you had a weapon for crying out loud! It had every opportunity⌠and it didn't.
You place the bola down, standing and hopping over a log. Walking the path down to a split between two rock digs. You slipped through the small passage, which opened up.Â
The tall rock face harbors trees and a small lake. It was nice⌠peaceful. The tall walls of rock keep it hidden and closed.
âThis was stupid.â You say, moments before looking over and seeing a couple of black scales resting down the dirt incline down into the small crop.
The dragon.
You kneel down and pick one up, looking it over before hearing a roar. In an instant you jump back in fear as the Night Fury dives up over the small passage, climbing at the walls.
It's claws dig in, scrambling frantically and attempting to flap its wings and get over the edge of the rock.
You watched as it wailed and gave up, falling back and gliding awkwardly over the pond and landing on its side across on the other side.
Pant, scared but fascinated. Watched the dragon moan in sadness and pain. You hop down from the ledge, scrambling onto another rock stool and watch the night fury as it moves about.
It tries several more times to fly. Flapping its wings and hopping up but never managing to pull itself over the ledge. Crying angrily as it lands.
Your eyes widen, pulling out your sketchbook. No Night Fury had ever been recorded, you had to do this. Wow wow.
You quickly sketched up a drawing of the dragon, watching it snarl angrily.Â
âWhy don't you just.. fly away??âÂ
The dragon snarls and shoots a plasma blast at the ground.
Looking at the dragon you notice it only has one tail fin, while your drawing has two. You rub away the charcoal with your sleeve, your curiosities only growing.
The dragon tries to fly, swerving along the rock and slamming down onto the ground. It whines in pain, it's nose near the water's edge. Noticing some fish. It perks up in hope, diving its head into the water, but the fish are fast enough to escape its attempts.
It whines, still hungry.
In a moment of weakness, you feel bad for the creature. Why was this happening, why was it stuck here?? Your pencil rolled from between your fingers.Â
Your eyes widened but before you could grab it it fell down the steep rock. Bouncing on the rocks and attracting the Night Furyâs attention.
You froze, and it froze. Both of you are looking at each other. It glares at you, growling low. But it looks.. curious in a way.
When you finally make your way to the Meade hall it's late. You'd spent all your time watching the night fury and becoming so fascinated that you didn't care to come back. Until now.
Walking in and seeing the other teens gathered around Gobber. Talking over strategies and what happened in the ring.
âNow, how did Ghost go wrong today??â
âI mistimed my somersault dive. It was sloppy. It threw off my reverse tumble.â Ghost said with some sarcasm as he poked at his food.
âYeah, we noticed.â Soap mumbles.
âNo no, you were great. That was so⌠âGhost.ââ Graves said, once again attempting to land an unflattering attempt.
âHe's right, you have to be tough on yourselves.â Gobber notices you walk in soaked, coming to the table. âWhere did Y/n go wrong?â
âUh, they showed up??â Soap said.
âTheir didn't get eaten??â Graves said.
âTheir never where they should be.â Ghost said, watching you with a nasty look as you scoot yourself over to the next table, knowing you weren't welcome around them.
Gobber walked over to you. âThank you, Ghost.â He smacks Soap and Graves in the head. âYou need to live and breathe this stuff. The dragon manual.â He holds up a book.Â
Leather bound with a dragon symbol burned into the front, tied with string to keep old pages together.
He cleared a part of the table and put the book down. âEverything we know about every dragon we know of.â
Thunder crackled overhead, Gobber sighed, knowing lightning to come. âNo attacks tonight. Study up for tomorrow.âÂ
âWait, you mean, read??â Graves frowned, crossing his arms.
âWell maybe it would do you some good.â Gaz spoke up.
âShut your mouth, I don't need to read nothing! Why read words when you can just kill the stuff the words tell you about??â
âOh! I've read it like, seven times. There's this water dragon that sprays boiling water at your face. And- And there's this other one that buries itself for like a week-â
âYeah, that sounds great. So there's a chance I was going to read itâŚâ Soap starts.
âBut not now.â Graves says, causing Soap to glare at him a little.
Even if they all were irritable brats at the age of sixteen, they all had some kind of friendship with each other. Some kind⌠more than they had with you. Because you're a loser.Â
Your eyes drift back over to Ghost who hadn't said a word about the book while the others bicker. Dragging his knuckles along the side of his tankard.Â
You could see the scars that started just before his wrist guards hid them away. Occasional Knicks and scratches along his arms and biceps.Â
Must have been from falls or accidents because he'd not properly fought a dragon or a hunterâŚ
The others move from the table to go back home. You get up, going to the book by where Ghost sat. âSo I guess weâll⌠share??â
âRead it.â He pushed the book, getting up and walking off.
âOh, uh, all mine, then. Wow. So, ok, I'll see youâŚâ You looked up as the door shut. They were already goneâŚ
The hall was dark with only you in it. You sat down at the table with a candle and opened the book.
Dragon classifications. Strike Class, Fear Class, Mystery Class.
You started to read. Reading through the book, the endings of each of the entries being extremely deadly: kill on sight.
Each page. Extremely deadly: kill on sight.
You continued to flip the pages. âBurns its victims, buries its victims, chokes its victims, turns its victims inside-out.â
âExtremely dangerous, extremely dangerous, kill on sight, kill on sight, kill on sightâŚâÂ
Through every page of every class. Until you got to the end.
You flipped the last page. At the top it said Night Fury. The page being otherwise almost completely empty.
âNight Fury: Speed, unknown. Size, unknown. The unholy offspring of lightning and death itself. Never engage this dragon.âÂ
You hesitated on the last part. âYour only chance: Hide and pray it does not find you.â
You pulled out your sketchbook, dropping the sketch of the Night Fury on the page. You had found a Night Fury. It had let you close. It .. hadn't killed you.
You stood the next day in the training ring, in the middle of a training session. Holding your shield and axe, you shifted from one foot to the other. Surrounded by a maze of tall builds all put together for the Deadly Nadder to find and kill you.
âYou know, I just happened to notice the book had nothing on Night Furies. Is there another book? Or a sequel? Maybe a little Night Fury pamphlet?â
The Deadly Nadder jumps atop one of the lofts, firing at you, taking off the head of your axe. âGah!â
âFocus y/n! You're not even trying!â Gobber scolds.Â
âToday is all about ATTACK! Nadders are quick and light on their feet! Your job is to be quicker and lighter!â Gobber continues.
Gaz gasped, running away as the Nadder searches him out. Throwing spikes from its tail at him, sinking into the wall above his head and his shield. âAh!! I'm really starting to question your teaching methods!!â
Gobber, undeterred, continues. âLook for it's Blindspot. Every dragon has one. Find it, hide in it, and strike.â
You rush by as Soap turns a corner, coming face to snout with the Nadder. He gasps, holding in a breath as it moves its head, attempting to stay in the Blindspot.Â
âSteaminâ hell⌠this thing stinks.â He wheezes. âDo you ever bathe??â He gags, trying to cover his mouth.
The Nadder turns its head, growling and spitting fire at him. âAh!â
âBlind spot? Yes. Deaf spot? Not so much.â Gobber grins, leaning his face against his palm as he watched from above the chain net.Â
Seeing Ghost running through the intricate maze, you hanging on his tail like a mouse finding safety with the cat.
You pause, looking up at Gobber. âHey, so how would one sneak up on a Night Fury?â
âNo one's ever seen one and loved to tell the tale.â He snaps his fingers. âNow get in there!!â
âY/n.â Ghost whispers your name. You turn to see Ghost kneeled down by one of the platforms, Graves behind him, nodding to you to be quiet. You skip over, hiding against the wall.
Ghost pokes his head out, seeing the Nadder coming around. He hides again, taking a deep breath and preparing himself before rolling forward on his shield.Â
He pushes off, hiding behind the next wall, Graves following and doing the same. When you attempt it, the shield does not follow your small body through the roll, trapping you against the ground.
The Nadder sees you, and runs. âGah!â You scramble up and run. The Nadder roars and flies up on top of the walls, jumping down in front of Ghost.Â
He readied himself but Graves pushed him aside. âWatch out babe, I'll take care of this.â
âHey!â Ghost growls at him, seething at him as he throws his weapon, completely missing.
The Nadder growls, Ghost glaring at him. âThe sun was in my eyes, Ghost.â The Nadder roars, Ghost making a run for it away from that meat head.Â
âWhat do you want me to do?? Block out the sun? I could do that, but I don't have time!â He dodges the attack, running after Ghost as the Nadder makes chase.
Graves continues rambling, looking back and making a swift turn down another aisle. Ghost looks back, gasping and crying as the Nadder is seconds away from him. He dashes around the corner and turns, slamming into the wall.
The Nadder follows, roaring at him as Ghost scrambles and runs, the walls starting to knock over from the collision.
You were still rambling to Gobber like an idiot. âLike so they take the daytime off?? Like a cat. Has anyone ever seen one, napping??â
Gobber looks up from his bored expression as Graves run by.Â
âY/n!âÂ
The walls of the maze collapse, the Nadder snapping at Ghostâs heels as he jumps up across one of the falling walls. He jumps to another wall, and you're right in his landing path.
âY/n!!â He yells, and jumps. You scramble back, falling on the ground as he lands with a thud on top of you.
âOoh,â Soap teases.Â
Ghost glares at you, shoving your face away and attempting to stand, his axe lodged in your shield.Â
âHey, why- let me⌠why don't youâŚ?â He shoves your chest down, standing up, his knee between your legs causing you to gasp in pain.Â
He does not care. Grabbing his axe angrily trying to pry it away. The Nadder turns back, readying its shot for you and Ghost.
Ghost sees it and grows more panicked, grabbing his axe, his foot landing on your cheek. âOw! Ow! Ow!!â
He attempts to pull his axe away as the Nadder comes closer.
He finally pries it from your arm and swings his axe at the Nadderâs face, your shield splintering.Â
The Nadder cries in pain and turns, walking off. Ghost pants, looking off in panic as he grips his axe.
âWell done, Ghost.â Gobber commends.
Ghost doesn't respond, the interaction having a grip on his core. Before his fear replaced with anger and he turned to you, curled up in the fetal position.
âIs this some kind of a joke to you!? Our parents' war is about to become ours!â He points his axe at you. âFigure out which side you're on.âÂ
Back to trying again with the Night Fury. You head down to the cove, bringing a new shield. Propping it between two rocks and tossing a fish into the open. You slide under it, crawling on your hands and knees.
Once on the other side you attempt to pry the shield out but it's stuck. You sigh, heading over to the fish and picking it up by under the fin.Â
You look around, slowly walking into the open. Feeling slightly panicky, but you've had decent luck with this dragon so far. What with it not eating you the first time.Â
Perhaps it was wise enough to know you weren't worth it. You'd be more of a chew toy than a hefty meal.
You walk along the pond, looking around for the night fury, aware it had eyes on you minutes earlier. It peers out from a rock as it watches you pass. It's eyes focus on you, tail swishing.
Finally it comes down from the rock, and you see it from your peripheral. You gasp, gripping the fish tight as the dragon comes down and around, sniffing the snack in your hand, growling at you.
You hold the fish out. Would it take it?? It cranes its body sideways like a cat, tilting its head and sniffing the treat.Â
It's pupils softening before growling and jumping back. Your hand retreats with the fish, gasping softly.Â
You pull your sweater open, your knife tucked into your clothes. When you reach for it, the dragon snarls.Â
You gasp, feeling your heartbeat picking up again, slowly removing the knife and dropping it.
The dragon's ears go down, growling away, and you kick the knife away into the pond.
Afterwhich, the dragon relaxes, pupils softening again. It sits, ear flicking. It continues to hold its body arched like a cat as it comes over when you extend the fish again.
âAh, Toothless.â You say, seeing his gummy mouth and lack of teeth. âI could have sworn you had-â His teeth suddenly snap out and he snatches the fish from your hands.Â
Your eyes widen as he scarfs down the snack. â-TeethâŚâ
He enjoys his snack before looking back at you, lowering his head and coming over.
âAh, ah.. uh, I don't have any more.â You stammer, backing up and tripping over your heel back against a rock.
Toothless gurgled, looking at you before starting to regurgitate his food. You tense up, cringing a little when he spits up part of the fish in your lap.
âUghâŚâ
He sits back, looking at you expectantly. His eyes move from the fish, then to you when you do nothing.
You sigh, hesitantly taking a bite of the food, retching it up, putting a hand over your mouth and forcing yourself to swallow it.
Toothless perks up, you shudder and look up at him, attempting to smile after thatâŚ. Delicious cuisine.
You smile awkwardly. Toothless frowns, before attempting to smile back. His lip twitching and showing his gummy smile that he gives you.Â
Your eyes widen a little. This⌠was not a kill on sight dragon. This wasn't something you'd slaughter for sport.Â
He was smiling at you. Why, from all the dragon's you'd ever been taught about, the most deadly was smiling at you. Sharing his foodâŚ
You slowly stand, extending your hand, to which Toothlessâ smile drops. He growls, and flies off, crying as he spirals against the wind, only able to drift and hit the ground a ways away.Â
He huffs against the dirty, slowly getting up and shaking himself off. He walks over to a small hill, blasting a controlled amount of heat against the ground, charring it into a nice warm bed.
He looks up at a bird in its nest, chirping and flying away. And then⌠he sees you. How unsightly. No one wants to see that before bed.
He groans and curls up. Folding in his wings and wrapping his tail around his face to keep him well hidden and secured.
You smile, inching a little closer. You boldly reach out to touch his tail, but Toothless is one step ahead. He lifts his tail, huffing at you.Â
You quickly stand, wobbling on shaky legs and awkwardly walking away from him. Toothless stares dully, getting up and moving from his spot, somewhere you surely couldn't get him.
Hanging from⌠a tree. Such an odd dragon.
You let him be. Sitting on a rock a couple feet away. Wasting away the time until the evening rolled around and Toothless slowly came out of his nap.
Moving his tail and looking over at you, drawing in the dirt with a stick.
He gurgled, hopping down and quietly coming over to see what you were doing.
You rested your cheek against your fist, aimlessly drawing a little figure of Toothless in the dirt.
Toothless watches curiously, purring a growl and getting up on his back legs. He waddled away. You look back when you hear the snapping of a tree branch.Â
Toothless comes back with his own drawing stick, purring and trailing it around in the dirt.
You watch him in shock and surprise as toothless drags the stick around, smiling and clutching it tight in his mouth.Â
He purrs as he swirls and twists around, finally finishing his creation of spirals and mapping trails between you and him.
You finally stand, looking around at what he's created. All the lines and the paths. You walk out toward one of the lines. When your foot steps on it, Toothless growls.Â
It shocks you a little, looking over at him and quickly taking your foot off the line. Toothless raises his head, purring at you in response.
You put your foot on the line, and he growls.
Taking it off, Toothless purred.
You did it a couple of times before understanding. It's trust. Toothless is offering trust. You smile softly, stepping over the line, aware of where your feet when as he stepped around and over the lines.Â
Finally stopping with your back to Toothless. You sink a little, feeling a warm breath fan across the nape of your neck and down your back.
You turn and look up at him. Toothlessâ gaze is soft. You pant softly, reaching your hand up. Toothless pulls his head away slightly, growling a little.
You pull your hand back, looking into his eyes. So you turn away. Closing your eyes and extending your hand again.Â
Toothlessâ eyes soften. He looks at your palm, leaning his head forward and hesitating, before gently leaning his nose into your palm, closing his eyes.
You exhale softly in surprise, feeling it. Toothless⌠trusts you. This was trust.
You looked up at Toothless. His eyes narrow again. He pulled away, wriggling his nose and huffing before dashing off.
The incident didn't leave your mind. Even when you went home, you couldn't face anyone after the thought of Toothless.Â
Sat atop the watch tower with Gobber and the others, roasting food over the crackling fire while he went on about a tale.
You weren't particularly listening, your gaze focused on your fingers, slowly turning the stick that was jabbed through your fish.
â...And with one twist, he took my hand, and swallowed it whole!â Gobber waved his stick, with a whole chicken on the end of it.Â
âAnd I saw the look on his face: I was delicious. He must have passed the word, because it wasn't a month before another one of them took my leg.â
Gaz frowned in concentration, digging into his food. âIsn't it weird to think that your hand was inside a dragon?â He motioned one of the meat legs toward Ghost, who glared and shifted away.
What was that idiots problem. Ghost was close to biting his arm off.
âLike if your mind was still in control of it, you could have killed the dragon from the inside by... crushing his heart, or something.â Gaz continued, Graves staring at him from across the firepit as it grew silent.
âRightâŚâ Graves muttered. âI swear, I'm so angry right now! I'll avenge your beautiful hand and your beautiful foot. I'll chop off the legs of every dragon I fight. With my face!âÂ
âUn-unh. It's the wings and the tails you really want. If it can't fly, it can't get away. A downed dragon is a dead dragon.â Gobber said, snapping a leg off his chicken.
Your eyes slowly widen. Toothless. Toothless was down. That's the first thing you'd listened to all night. Pulled from your stupor of pointless thoughts.
Gobber yawned and got up. âAlright. I'm off to bed. You should be, too. Tomorrow we get to the big boys. Slowly but surely making our way up to the Monstrous Nightmare. But who'll win the honor of killing it?â
âIt's gonna be me! It's my destiny, see??â Soap rolled up his sleeve, showing his arm.
âWoah, your mom let you get a tattoo??â
âIt's not a tattoo, it's a birthmark.â
âI've known you literally since we were babies, and I've never seen that.â Graves replies.Â
âYes, it was. You've just never seen me from the left side until now.â
After hearing what Gobber had said about dragons, your interests turn to the forge. If you're going to get Toothless out of there alive you'd need to help him.Â
It wouldn't be on his ownâŚ
Ghost watched you, cold gaze following as you walked away from the fire and back down the watch tower.Â
You headed to the forge quickly, pulling out your sketchbook and laying it out on the table. Alright, now for something that could help Toothless. Time to get to work.
You worked long into the night. Heating the forge and putting together a device that you knew would help. You worked until your eyes were heavy and the sunrise poked over the edge of the water.
Finally putting out the flames and grabbing what you could, you headed back to the house. Stumbling inside and slumping into your hard bed for just an ounce of sleep.
After a bit of rest and recuperating you headed out a few hours later, ready to help Toothless. Your plan was foolproof. And you brought along a giant basket of fish just for it.
When you got back to the cove, Toothless was waiting for you. âHey Toothless, I brought you some fish.â You set down the basket and kicked it over with your foot. âWe've got some salmon, some nice Icelandic codâŚâ
Toothless began to sniff through the fish, nudging through to find the good stuff.
âAnd a whole smoked eelâŚâ You slowly stepped around the pile when toothless growled. He backed up, snarling at the pile.Â
You tilted your head and reached in, pulling out the eel. Toothless saw it and expanded his wings in defense, roaring loudly.
âNo, no no no! It's ok!â You quickly threw the eel away and placed out your hand to him, your contraption firmly under the other.
He huffed and you wiped your hand on your coat. âYeah, I don't much like eel eitherâŚâ
And Toothless went sniffing through the pile of fish again, wolfing down a few without wasting time.
âThat's itâŚâ you slowly backed up behind him. âThat's it. Just stick with the good stuff.âÂ
You slowly set up the wing you'd made. âAnd don't you mind me I'll be back hereâŚÂ minding my own businessâŚâ
You attempted to wrangle Toothlessâ tail. Strapping the belts around it as he dug around the basket. Having to sit on his tail and gently spread open the fabric.
When you finally got it hooked on, you sat back. âHey, doesn't look half bad.â
Toothlessâ head perked up as soon as he felt it. A weight on his other tail. He slowly patted his feet into the ground. He could fly⌠he could fly.
Toothless spread his wings, and took off. âWoah! Whooaa!!â You gasped, seeing the ground suddenly falling away from you. You leaned down, grabbing and holding onto Toothlessâ tail tightly.
âNo no no!!â You cried as Toothless darted for the coves edge. You watched wide eyed, your adrenaline pumping.
The tail had closed and was flailing in the wind, Toothless starting to lose air.Â
Oh fuck oh fuck. You managed to pry one sweaty hand from his tail and pull it open. Toothless caught air and zoomed up into the sky.Â
âOh, myâŚ! It's working!!â You cried as Toothless flew away from the island. He twisted in the air, flying back over the cove and back across the pond.Â
âYes! Yes! I did it!â
Toothless looked back. What the?? Why is this toothpick still hanging on to me!?Â
He twisted upside down and flicked his tail, tossing you into the pond and flew away.Â
Losing control of himself, he shrieked as he slammed back into the ground across the lake. He looked at the folded in tail angrily.Â
You swam above the water furiously, smiling. âYeah!â You splashed.
The next day at training you were faced with the Hideous Zippleback. Teamed up with Gaz, your goal was to work together to disarm the two headed dragon of its abilities.
One head spreading flammable gas, the other head lights that gas.
âRazor sharp, serrated teeth that inject venom for pre-digestion. Prefers ambush attack, by crushing its victims-â
You frowned at Gaz, gripping your bucket tight. âWould you please stop that!?â
As more gas filled the arena, Graves and Soap turned back to back, looking around for any sign of the dragon.
âIf that dragon shows either of his faces, I'm gonna- there!â Graves spotted something through the gas, both him and Soap frantically throwing their buckets of water.
The gas cleared, and there stood hell itself. A soaking. Wet. Ghost.
Oh.
âOh it's just Ghost, we thought you were a dragon!â Soap shrinks back, smiling like an awkward idiot.Â
âWell, clearly,â he snapped coldly. âI am not!â
âWell, your butts big like a dragon.â
Graves hit Soap with his elbow. âNot that there's nothing wrong with aâŚâ Ghost was already marching toward him.
âdragon-esque figure- Ow!âÂ
Ghost punched him hard in the nose, sending him back. He landed on his butt, before he could get up something snatched him into the gas.
Ghost put his arm in front of Soap. âWait.â He whispered.Â
There was a cry and Graves ran from the smoke. âOw! Ow!â
Gaz gulped, you and him still back to back. âChances of survival are dwindling in the single digits nowâŚâ
One of the dragon's heads peered out from the smoke and came toward you two. Sharp yellow eyes trained on Gaz.
âWoah, Woah!â He scrambled back as it cornered him, and he threw his bucket of water onto it.
The dragon rippled a growl, gas billowing from beyond its maw.Â
âOh⌠wrong head.â He smiled awkwardly. It drenched Gaz in gas, Gobber calling out for him, and Gaz made a run for it.
Leaving you the last one with a water bucket. Both of the heads now coming around, the dragon facing you from both sides.Â
One of the heads created sparks between its teeth.
âNow y/n!â Gobber said.
You raised your water bucket. âEh.â You threw it up, the water barely hitting the dragon. âOh come onâŚâ
You. Are completely⌠and utterly useless⌠be thankful you have a dragon now or you would not survive let me tell you.Â
The dragon surrounded you. âY/n!â Gobber yelled, coming over.
But I admit, what you lack in physical strength you make up in your capacity to learn.Â
Standing up slowly, the dragon snarled and whipped back. You pulled the eel from your vest, holding it out to them.
âBack! Back!â You snapped, the dragon snarling and backing away from the eel.
âThat's right! Back in your cage!â You corralled it back in, slamming the door shut with all the might you had. Which isn't much.
The others watched. Ghostâs signature glare burning into your skin. This was fucking ridiculous.
You clapped your hands together. âSo uh⌠are we done??â They all stared at you wordlessly. âBecause I uh.. I got some stuff to do so I'll just⌠yeah. See you tomorrow!â
You smiled, spending the rest of the day at the forge. Creating some more things you could use in your adventures with Toothless.
Putting together a saddle.
You brought it to Toothless and when he saw it he smiled. Perking up and running away. âHey!â You laughed, running after him.Â
Toothless gurgled and fled around the ground as you chased after him.
After getting the saddle on you learned pretty quickly you'd need some way to hold on. After a failed fly test force Toothless to panic and throw you off his back into the water again.Â
No problem, just a little waist retainer was all that was needed. Hooking it onto the saddle and having another go.
The second time was slightly better. You'd tied a rope around your ankle that would help you pull the tail fin open.Â
Toothless roared when you tried again, losing control in the air just after getting out of the cove.Â
âHold hold ha!!â You cried as Toothless squirmed and fell into a bed of tall dragon nip.Â
You stumbled, looking around the tall grass and going back to see Toothless rolling around comfortably in the grass. Relaxing fully in total relaxation.
Huh. Odd.Â
You picked up some of the nip, looking at it curiously. Again, it's best you have a bigger head than bigger biceps.Â
When faced with a Gronckle for the next training exercise, you ended things quickly. It crashed into Graves and went for you. You held up the dragon nip you had taken and it immediately slowed down.
The Gronckle crashed to the ground and you rubbed the dragon nip against its nose.Â
The villagers gathered around the top of the pit to watch you in awe, the village elder also noticing how much you'd suddenly improved your dragon prowess in recent days.Â
After which all the teens were gathered around you. Well, almost all of them.
âWow, how did you do that??â Soap asked.
âI never would have thought about that-â Gaz piped up.
âI've never even seen a Gronckle do that!â Graves blurted.Â
Ghost trained behind, watching as you laughed awkwardly. âOh I uh, I left my axe in the ring.â You turned, bumping into Ghost as you did.Â
He jumped, pushing you lightly and you went around him. âSorry, sorry.âÂ
They watched, the others smiling excitement. Ghost glaring down your whole existence.
Spending more time with Toothless, you began to introduce the fondness of scratches and pets. Scratching the patches of scales along his neck and ear fins.
Toothless groaned, leaning up into it, turning his head and closing his eyes. You scratched under his chin and he went limp, falling to the ground with a content exhale.Â
The next day, back in training.Â
Ghost yelled, throwing his axe at the deadly Nadder that turned, running back over to you two. It roared loudly, pushing Ghost to the ground, skinning his upper arm.Â
You readied yourself, quickly dropping the axe as the Nadder ran to you.Â
Ghost scrambled back up, grabbing his axe. His heart pounded as he lifted it and ran. You noticed him and turned quickly to the Nadder.
You reached up, scratching behind its ear, down to its chin and right⌠there.
The Nadder dropped, happily out for a nap.
Ghost panted, lowering his axe in disbelief. You smiled at him and shrugged.
This continued on. Spending time with Toothless you learned he was just like a cat.Â
Using a hammer to shine a light across the ground, you watched with amusement as Toothless chased after it. Hopping and purring to catch it.
Training faced you with the Terrible Terror. Which admittedly you didn't expect it to be as small as it was.
âMeet the Terrible Terror.â
A small door attached to the main door opened, like a cat door. The tiny dragon scuttling out, licking its eyeball, staring at you all.
âAw, it's like the size of my- ah!!â Soap jumped back as the Terror jumped at him. You all scattered as Soap landed on the ground, the terror chewing on his nose.Â
âOh I am hurt, I am very much hurt!â
The Terror perked up, seeing a light moving across the ground. It flicked its tail, smiling and rushing from Soap after the light.Â
You guided it with the shiny part of your shield back into its small hut, closing the door with your foot.
âWow, he's better than you ever were.â Soap rubs his nose, looking at Ghost.
After which you spent more time working on a harness and a better string attachment for the tail fin.
When rushed through the woods up ran into Ghost, throwing his axe into different trees, training his aim.
He raised his axe, pausing when he saw you. You two looked at each other, and then you rushed off. You couldn't let him see Toothless.Â
When Ghost turned to follow after you, you had somehow already disappeared.Â
Fuck!
You began to work on the positions of your contraption with Toothless. Strapping him to a tree stump so you could write down the number of each foot turn.
Able to move your heel and shift the position of the tailfin through the rope.
âPosition one.â You shifted the lever, writing it down on your little piece of paper. âAnd position two.â He shifts it, Toothless' wings catching air and the rope snapped.Â
âGah!â You gasped as you were thrown back to the ground.Â
Toothless groaned and rolled over, pulling you up by the waist, the waist retainer stuck to the clip of Toothless' saddle.
âOh brotherâŚâ
Forced to drag Toothless back to the village while still tangled together, you snuck past a few guards and led him into the smithing shop.Â
You looked around for something to pry the hook open, Toothless shoving his nose in a basket. When he flicked it off, it hit one of the weapons on the wall, causing noise.
Ghost who was passing, heading back, begrudgingly home, heard it.
He walked over to the smithing window. âY/n?? Are you in there??â
Both you and Toothless looked up. You quickly dropped what you were doing and pushed yourself out the smithing window, looking at him.Â
âGhost- hi, Ghost. Hi, hi⌠hi Ghost.â You fumbled with the waist trainer. Toothless sniffing around and pulling you back against the doors.
Toothless looked around, spotting a sheep. The sheep spotted him, immediately rushing away.Â
âI normally don't care what people do but you're acting weird.â. Ghost points an accusatory finger. âWell, weirder.â
You huffed, stumbling back. The trainer lifted you off your feet. Ghost stared at you as the doors of the smithing window gave in and sucked you back. Ghost immediately rushed over and opened it, seeing the smelter empty.Â
You and Toothless sneaking away and flying off. That. Was. Way too closeâŚ
That day was the day your father arrived back. One of the boats with several holes in it and barely survived. Their search for a nest of dragons once again produced no fruit.
Gobber was there when Stoick arrived back. âWell, I trust you found the nest at least?â
âNot even close.â He growled, walking past with a fixed frown.
âOh. Excellent.â Gobber said sarcastically, following Stoick.Â
âI hope you had a little more success than me.â
âWell, if by success, you mean that your parenting troubles are over with, then... yes.â He took a basket of supplies over his shoulder while he walked.
Various different Vikings congratulating Stoick on his kid actually becoming vikinglike. Can you imagine that eh?
âTheir gone??â Stoick asked.
âYeah... most afternoons. But who can blame them? I mean the life of a celebrity's very rough. They can barely walk through the village without being swarmed by his new fans.â Gobber replied.
âY/n??â
âWho would have thought it eh? He has this⌠way with the beasts.â
Stoickâs eyes widened. Yes. What he'd been waiting for your entire life!
Off somewhere near the edge of the island, you were busy with Toothless. Having written up your complete cheat sheet, you secured the small paper with all of your positions to Toothless' saddle. Slowly gliding through the air.
âAlright bud we're gonna take this nice and slowâ You looked over the sheet. âHere we go, here we go. PositionâŚâÂ
âThree. No⌠four.â You looked down at the foot pedal and positioned it, the tail fin opening. Toothless looked down at it, wiggling his head and getting used to it.Â
The gentle glide turned into a slow fly, Toothless guiding with your help through the winds, his wings catching air flawlessly.
Toothless flew you up into the air, passing some clouds. You held on, looking back at the tail fin. âAlright. It's go time, it's go time.â
Toothless roared and dove down toward the sea stacks littering around the island ocean.
âCome on buddy! Come on buddy!â You encourage. You held onto the saddle tightly when Toothless flew down over the water, the waves lapping up to touch his belly as you went by.Â
You looked up as you passed through two connected sea stacks, watching the birds startle and fly off. âYes, it worked!âÂ
The tail was holding up so far.
You flew up away from the water, attempting to make a turn and throwing Toothless into a sea stack. He growled and flapped violently. âSorry!â You winced.
Barely recovering you saw another stack, attempting to pull him up sharply and hitting another. He growled again. âIt was my fault.â You cringed.
He hit you with his ear. âYeah yeah, I'm on it. Position four- uh, three.â You shifted the foot pedal and took off into the sky. Soaring up over the sea stacks and into the fluffy clouds.
âYeah!! Aw this is nice. The wind in my -â the paper attached to the saddle flew off and into the wind. âCheat sheet!â You reached back to try and grab it.Â
âStop!!âÂ
Toothless flapped his wings, halting as best he could, sending you forward. The hook on the waist belt and the saddle came off.Â
âNo!!â Toothless saw you and panicked, falling back and scrambled. âNo!! Oh no!!â You yelled as you fell and spiraled in the sky down toward the sea.
Toothless roared when he saw you falling faster than him. âOh, gods! Oh, no!!â You cried your lungs out.
âAlright! You gotta kind angle yourself!â You flipped onto your back, trying to help Toothless. âOkay, no, no, no... come back down towards me! Come back down-- YOW!â Toothlessâ tail smacked you as you fell.Â
You flipped onto your front, reaching out to grab the hook on the saddle, just out of reach.Â
Toothless wailed and cried when you finally grabbed it, managing to pull yourself on. Reattaching and gripping the saddle, angled downward.Â
The cheat sheet hit you in the face and you grabbed it, putting it between your teeth. You zoomed straight toward a downward plain of trees, trying to pull Toothless back up.
He roared and whined, zooming down at an angle over the trees, his wings catching wind. As you zoomed down to the bottom you pulled the cheat sheet again. With all the wind you couldn't read anything on it.
Looking between the sheet and some sea stacks, you tossed the sheet,grabbing the saddle and readjusting the foot pedal.Â
Toothless roared and zoomed to the side, making the corner before you could hit the stones.
You zoomed through the various passages, shifting the foot pedal again through the fog. Coming shooting out the other side into the clear open air.Â
You panted, blood pumping with adrenaline. âYeah!!â You raised your arms. Toothless smiled and shit a blast into the air, ruining your celebration. âCome onâŚâ
You were pummeled into the fire, pushing your hair back and covering your clothes in specs of dirt and char.Â
You flew with Toothless some more, your adventure leading you back to a sea stack, there you got some fish and made a small fire.
Toothless laid down, retching up one of his fish heads while you leaned back against him, cooking your own dinner over the fire.
âUh, no thanks, I'm good.â You refused the fish head.Â
Some small dragons spotted you and flew over to your little set up. Those tiny Terrible Terrors. Toothless growled, protecting his fish as they came over, snapping at one.
You watched as one of them grabbed the head of the fish Toothless had belched up and shot at another dragon who tried to take it.
Toothless watches unimpressed, when his food started moving. One of the dragon's trying to sneak a fish from his pile. Toothless growled, grabbing the fish in his teeth and pulling it back.Â
The Terror whined, causing toothless to bellow a low laugh.Â
The Terror squeaked and stood up, snapping at Toothless.Â
You looked between the two as it stood up on its back legs and inhaled. Before it could do anything Toothless shot a small blast at it, inflating it and it puffed out smoke, whining.Â
You chuckled. âNot so fireproof on the inside are ya?â You tossed one of your fish. âHere ya go.â It scuttled over and wolfed it down quickly.Â
Licking its eyeball and cautiously wandering over to you. It whines, curling up beside you, purring softly.
âEverything we know about you guys⌠It's wrong.â
