A/n: decided to draw this AU ^^^ dragon rider L and his Night Fury. I didn't want to make the Nighy fury a carbon copy of toothless but that's kinda hard when toothless is the only night fury we ever see. So I gave him aqua eyes instead of green and some grey scales among the black. P. S. I couldn't be bothered to shade so uhhh...

The terrible terrors sang on the rooftops, the sun shone through the windows and the sounds of dragons in the distance rang through the air. Sleeping on your makeshifts bed on the floor wasn't that comfortable but the injured boy you had in your bed needed it more. Although it seemed his dragon felt bad for you, because you'd woken up leaning against the night fury tail.

You sat up, stretching out your arms. The dragon behind you waking up due to your movements.

"Good morning night fury... huh, I still don't know your name" you said, giving the night fury a scratch. He growled in response and as you stood up, he stretched like a dog would.

You both looked down at the sleeping boy, he seemed more comfortable than last night. Like the pain has simmered.

"Well, is a matter of time before your rider wakes up. Better make breakfast. What do you eat?"

The dragon responded, but since you didn't speak the language of dragons, you didn't understand him.

"Blue oliander?"

The dragon gave you a disgusted look.

"Uhh, eels?"

He shook his head.

"Fish? Like cod or salmon?"

He gave a happy growl and jumped around. That was the right answer. Going down to the kitchen where you'd stored some fish in a makeshift tank, you grabbed one and tossed it to the dragon who happily gulped it down.

"Now, I guess I can make some toast..." you mumbled to yourself, grabbing some bread and starting throwing some sticks into the fire.

"Ah... I don't have anything to light it with..."

The dragon pushed you aside and helpfully shot a fire ball at it, creating a fire to cook on.

"Thank you, you're very helpful you know"

He seemed to like compliments that dragon, he always looked very pleased when you praised him.

Maybe it was the smell of food cooking, but the boy down the hall found himself waking up with a sore head and aching muscles. He sat up, trying to move both his arms but finding one in intense pain and stuck in a sling.

He looked around, he was in someone's room he didn't recognise, his armour was gone and he didn't quite remember how he even got there. But, he could hear a fire cracking and smell food, as well as hearing the familiar sounds of his dragon from down the hallways.

He got up, half limping to down the hall and looking around in confusion. When he entered the room at the end of the hall, he saw a girl with (h/c) hair, wearing comfortable day clothes cooking at the fire place with none other than his dragon playing with her.

He took a step forward to comfort you, only to accidentally whack his sore arm on the door frame.

"OW!"

The sound of his voice made you and the night fury look over.

"Oh you're awake" you said.

His dragon immediately became exited and rushed over to him, jumping around happily. He was glad to see his rider was ok.

"Woah! Ok ok Kazuo! I'm ok calm down!" The rider said, gesturing for the dragon to stop jumping.

So kazuo was his name? You wondered what it meant. It wasn't a name like you'd give to a pet that's for sure.

Kazuo calmed down, L looking over at you.

"Uh... hi?" He said.

"Hey, good morning. You crashed and broke your arm, so I fixed you up as best as I could. Don't worry I'm not a hunter, I'm like a dragon doctor, I patch up sick dragons" you explained.

He seemed pretty surprised, but you didn't blame him. Seeing a person around here that actually respects dragons is rare.

"Wow, Uh- thank you. I was wondering why my arm hurt so much"

"Apart from your arm and some bruising, you're ok. Your dragon is too, just some cuts and a small tear in the wing. He should heal pretty quick"

"That's good, we can't have you in too much pain now can we?" He said, scratching his dragon who nuzzled into him.

You took your toast slices off the fire and put them in some plates, grabbing the toppings.

"want some breakfast? I'm (y/n) by the way. I'm guessing you're L?" You said.

"How'd you guess?" He replied, walking over and helping with the food as best as he could with one arm.

"Your logo was on your shoulder pads. And you fly a night fury"

"Right, it would have been obvious..."

"How did you even crash? I saw a bunch of broken trees form the fall and judging by the fact you were a a few feet away from Kazuo, you were thrown off at some point"

He thought for a moment as he ate his toast, trying to remember what happened.

"That's right... we were fighting these three ships who had a group of Nadders trapped. We freed them and as the ships were going down Kazuo got shot in the wing so we bolted for the nearest land. He must have gotten to weak in the wing to fly any further and we crashed" L explained.

"Ouch. At least you got the Nadders free. With those injuries neither of you are getting into the sky any time soon, don't worry, you can stay here and I'll make sure you both heal up" you said.

"Thanks... I've never actually met someone else who actually likes dragons before..."

Maybe it was the fire you were sitting by, maybe it was the humidity of the day, but his cheeks seemed to go red as he spoke.

"I'm not just going to let a human and his dragon die out there. It was the least I could do" you replied.

L scanned you down, you weren't a rider, but you were definitely a fighter. He'd seen swords in the hall, you were pretty tough looking. A few scars here and there, not super muscular but had some noticeable strength. Hair tied back to prevent from getting in the way when fighting, tougher skin on the hands from working so much. Judging from your house, you could build, mend and treat wounds. And Judging from your swords and shields, you could fight too.

You were definitely a warrior in your own way.

L had a feeling he and his dragon would get along well with you. Himself especially.
