A New Kind of Peace

Description

Sometimes she questioned his ability to be a father. Freyja-knew he had the heart for it, the compassion and the patience. It was his presence she worried about, because he could be so frustratingly absent sometimes. All the long trips, all the projects and papers left lying around the house no matter how many times she reminded him to take care of them, all the days days he was so consumed by work he wouldn't come home until late into the night...

But their son turned out to be a stabilizing presence for Hiccup, grounding him in ways she never could, and Astrid's worries were alleviated. She could watch them for hours--her husband and her boy--and contentment would settle over her mind. She felt a peace with the world she never thought she would attain, and Astrid would wonder at how differently her life may have gone had she not gotten on that dragon.


Hey remember when I said I was going to give drawing a break?:B


I wanted to do a classic baby-on-daddy's-belly couch picture but they don't have a couch... and a bench just didn't seem to cut it :XD:. So I figured back then they'd be taking naps on the grassy knolls of Berk.

Oh my god! :ohmygod: The uncharted angles! Ughghgghg. I was not using references, so if you really scrutinize this you're going to realize how little sense it makes. Like Garik's entire anatomy. Wut. :stare:

Astrid's outfit is her 'young adult' outfit I give here here: [link]
She has her marriage braids which, apparently, I decided not to put any effort in. :no: And Hiccup has a new jacket. Garik has some knitted booties.
