Arranged marriage
Characters
Compassionate & Empathetic: Hiccup’s most defining trait is his deep sense of empathy. Instead of striking down a captured Night Fury, he looked into its eyes and chose to untie it, ultimately dismantling his village's prejudice and changing the world of Berk forever.Innovative & Resourceful: He is a brilliant inventor and mechanic. Often falling back on his intellect over raw brawn, he builds complex prosthetics for himself and his dragon, specialized wingsuits, and tactical gear.Strategic Thinker: Hiccup possesses a keen aptitude for strategy and tactics. Because of his physical limitations as a youth, he relies on observation and clever problem-solving to outmaneuver threats, both in battle and in politics.Witty & Sarcastic: He copes with being the town outcast by developing a sarcastic, dry sense of humor. His quick wit often serves as a defense mechanism against his more aggressive peers.Determined & Unyielding: Despite his small stature and lack of traditional Viking strength, he is incredibly stubborn and relentless. He continuously strives to prove himself to his father and his tribe

they were coming.
everyone below would call it a new beginning—an alliance of peace, trade, and unity. but standing there, it didn’t feel like a beginning. it felt like an ending he hadn’t agreed to.
his father said this was duty, that this marriage would bind our tribes together, keep our people safe. maybe he was right. but duty doesn’t quiet the part of your heart that still wants to choose.
the ships grew closer, the wind stronger. the sails moved like wings, heavy with frost and power. He could hear the horns from the village, the cheers of people who believed this would save them all. He wanted to believe it too.
i reached inside my vest, fingers brushing against the small iron ring I’d forged myself. plain, steady, unpolished—like the promise I was supposed to keep. Guest of drakkar.
the name felt strange on his tongue, like a word I hadn’t learned the meaning of yet.
he looked out at the sea one last time. the ships were almost here now—beautiful, certain, unstoppable. and him? He was still standing in the wind, trying to feel brave.
