Description

Astrid sighed, and hugged her arms around her middle.

"Things are going to be so different now..."

They'd be looking to Hiccup for direction now. So many people were anxious for him to wake up, and not just because he was the chief's son, or because they actually gave a damn about him...

"'Course," Ruffnut agreed in her usual, gruff voice with surprising tender fingers to tread her mane. "The dragons are everywhere now, and not in the 'Imma' eat your food' way. This whole situation is completely messed up."

"I didn't mean with the village." Those nails grazed Astrid's hairline, tickling the skin before her ear as fingers repeatedly smoothed back the finest wisps of hair, defiant even to the influence of water. "I mean...well, I do mean with the village. But Hiccup's going to be making the decisions—or his dad will at least listen to him. We have to rely on him." Astrid gave a false laugh, as if trying to find the situation humorous. "Did you ever imagine it would come to this? Hiccup? He saved us and then he..."

Almost died for them.

Ruffnut didn't laugh with her. She continued to fiddle with the hair.

"Yeah, he turned into something, didn't he?" It wasn't a question to be answered so Astrid focused on the sensations to her head, suddenly feeling uncomfortable. Then she heard what she had been dreading: "You're really going after him, aren't you?"

Astrid remained silent for a beat longer.

"Yeah," she finally exhaled. And again, stronger, "Yeah. I really am."


~Laugardagur ...That one-shot I wrote ages ago with Astrid and Ruffnut bathing. :giggle: :no:


So many things I hate and like about this. I like the backwall. I hate the tub. D: Hate the water more.

Also, perspectives got f***ed.

Ruffnut looks so pretty, but not so much like Ruffnut. Astrid looks likes Astrid though, which is nice.

I don't know what they're looking at. Wonky eyes are wonky.


**I was supposed to be writing the consummation scene for Hiccup and Astrid in CtL, and was looking through my old stuff to review what I've covered, when I got distracted by memory lane. I like forgetting about old one-shots, then re-reading them and being pleasantly surprised by the story. The writing is more juvenile and relatively unrefined, but I found its simplicity pretty enjoyable.

The next thing I know I was drawing this. :doh: I get inspired by the weirdest things. Day wasted.
