The huge dragon lets out a powerful yet happy roar, making (Y/N) wince before she smiles, jumping off (D/N) and rubbing his neck.

"Welcome to paradise, mate," a Viking greets, offering a decent sized fish to a new dragon.

"Well, aren't you a beauty," a woman coos to another dragon as it chitters at her.

"Aw, you're welcome! You're welcome!" Snotlout boasts, making (Y/N) scoff in annoyance. The boy dumps his helmet on a smaller child, making him stagger around.

"I took on, like, one hundred trappers..a thousand trappers!" He quickly corrects.
"All with burning undies," Ruffnut fibs, cackling.

Tuffnut rushes forward, his hair tied to his front and acting as a beard. "My thick, full beard almost caught on fire!"

"Just..just stop." Ruffnut sighs, shaking her head.

(Y/N) chuckles gently, shaking her head and walking past him to greet (M/N) and Valka.

"So, uh, (Y/N)'s mom, Hiccup's mom," Snotlout flirts as he approaches, making (M/N)  sigh and shake her head.

"Any notes on my bone-crushing assault or was it pretty much perfect?"

Valka snickers nervously, petting a dragon as she speaks. "Oh, it was indescribable. And please, call me Valka. It has been a year."

"First-name basis," Snotlout smirks, backing away and looking towards (M/N), expecting the same reaction.

"You're performance was lousy, and quite frankly embarrassing.." (M/N) calls in a firm tone, making Snotlout freeze in his spot, the boy backs away nervously, looking away and making his way towards his dragon.

"I think the real heroes of the day are (D/N) and Toothless!" Hiccup grins, gently rubbing under (D/N)'s chin before focusing on Toothless.

"Isn't that right, bud?" He coos, hugging Toothless and rubbing his head.

"What would we do without you, O' King and his mighty commander!" He praises, (D/N) looking to him with a toothy grin.

Toothless purrs happily as Hiccup gushes over him, (Y/N) approaching with a small laugh.

"Good to know that my hero was actually (D/N)! Thanks for clearing that up Hiccup!" She teases, approaching (D/N) as he wags his tail, Hiccup frowning as he looks towards the two.

She leans down and kisses his face, leaving over exaggerated smooches as the Howl chirps happily.

"N-no! Remember I did save you from getting your head cut off!!" Hiccup calls, stomping over and poking his girlfriend's sides with a pout.

"Oh really? Must have slipped my mind.." (Y/N) hums gently, kicking Hiccup's shin with a smirk. The boy's pout deepens, sighing he wraps his arms around her waist and lifts her up, pulling her away from (D/N) with a laugh.

(Y/N) squeals as she's lifted, gripping her boyfriend's hands, she ducks her head as Hiccup spins her around, sighing happily as he sets her down gently.

Hiccup grips her waist, stabling her and turning her around, so their chests were pressed together comfortably. The two stare at eachother happily, (Y/N) reaching a hand up and cupping her boyfriends cheek.

Hiccup leans into her touch, but quickly recoils as his cheek is roughly tugged, the skin turning pink. "Oi!" He yells, trying hard to pull away but to no avail.

"Don't pull me away from (D/N)!!" (Y/N) yells playfully, yelping as Hiccup pinches her waist.

Vikings gather around and watch in amusement as the couple whisper curses to eachother, still locked in a rather tight embrace while pulling and shoving eachother, their faces only inches apart.

They both stop for a few seconds before bursting into a fit of giggles, their foreheads colliding gently as they catch their breath.

Hiccup looks to his girlfriend gently, squinting at the height difference. It irked him how she still managed to stay a few feet taller than him.

"Beanstalk.." he mumbles with a smile, leaning up and placing a lingering kiss to her forehead.

"Troll.." (Y/N) whispers, kissing Hiccup's cheek twice before pulling away fully. The couple stare at eachother with so much love it made even the most fierce Vikings swoon at the display of affection.

Their moment was cut short by Astrid, "We should all start training a lot harder, for sure. That was pretty sloppy."

"Thank you, Astrid," (M/N) sighs in relief, gently petting Vritra before walking over with Valka.

"She does have a point," Valka agrees, looking around. "Perhaps you all rely a little too much on your dragons and not enough on each other."

"Well..except these two," (M/N) says, gesturing towards Hiccup and (Y/N). "That's exactly what I was saying! Just listen up, guys," Snotlout rushes forward, landing besides Hiccup.

"I'm not trusting this oaf to watch my back!" (Y/N) shrieks to her mother. "He literally lit his own butt on fire."

"You're just jealous your moms are super-impressed with me," Snotlout tsks, shaking his head. "I'm like the son they always wanted."

"..didn't (M/N) threaten to feed you to Vritra yesterday?" Hiccup questions with a smirk, (Y/N) rolling her eyes and drawing her sword.

She twirls the weapon in her palm before taking a quick jab at Snotlout, making the boy back away with a yelp.

Snotlout nervously laughs, backing away from the two as Hiccup lightly rolls his eyes.

"Does he seriously not understand the age gap between him and..ugh nevermind!" (Y/N) sighs, rolling her eyes as Hiccup chuckles.

...

Fishlegs pets Meatlug, Fishmeat bouncing from his pack.

"Fishmeat," Fishlegs calls, quickly following the baby as he rushes to the Crimson Goregutter. "You found a new friend!"

The Crimson Goregutter jumps in surprise as the baby playfully paws at him, making him roar playfully and go into a pounce position, the structures around shaking.

"Mind your heads!" A man shouts, everyone ducking as the pillar spins and nearly smacks
them.

The ground rumbles, (Y/N) yelping and gripping Hiccup's shoulders tight. Both gasp, ducking under the dragon's massive tail as he roars, bouncing around with the baby Gronckle.

(D/N) barks, quickly shaking his head as he attempts to stop the large dragon before quickly getting out of his way, ducking and rolling away.

The dragon runs into a pillar, Vikings and dragons scrambling to dodge it as it falls onto a house, setting off a chain reaction.

House after house collapses on one another, destroying Viking and dragon homes as they scramble to get clear.

"Oh..no..." (Y/N) groans, smacking her forehead as Hiccup watches, wincing every time something else was smashed.

Dragons squawk in fear, quickly fleeing their housings as the last house finally falls into the sea. (D/N) stops, standing in one spot and glaring at the dragon.

Gobber growls angrily, shoving past the crowd to the two. "What good is having the King and his commander around if they can't keep order?!"

(D/N) lands next to Toothless, staring at him annoyed and with a head tilt.

"Hey...bud? Do you wanna do something here?" Hiccup trails off, gesturing to the dragon.

Toothless blinks rapidly, turning and nervously rumbling under (D/N)'s stare before roaring loudly.

Fishmeat squeals, struggling to rush away as he attempts to fly. The Crimson Goregutter whines softly, bowing to Toothless with an apologetic frown.

"And where do you suppose we put these ones?" Gobber demands, his hands on his hips as he faces the two.

"I was just thinking that on the way here, (Y/N) admits, rubbing her neck as she looks around.

"It has gotten pretty packed here."

"Eh, we'll make room," Hiccup nonchalantly replies, shrugging.

"Where?" (Y/N) questions, making Hiccup nervously chuckle.

"Ah..

"Aah!" Gobber screams, slamming his hand into Hiccup's stomach and nearly slamming his fist into (Y/N)'s face with the other.

"What?!" She questions, shoving his arm away and setting a hand on her heart from the scare.

Gobber points to the small purple and yellow frog-like dragon, his hand shaking in fear.
(Y/N) raises a brow, glancing at Hiccup and laughing at his pained expression.

"You brought back a Hobgobbler!!"

(Y/N) stares at the small dragon before looking up at the frightened man and smiling, "looks just like you." She says in an amused tone.

Gobber turning to her with wide eyes.
"Don't joke about that, lass! They're a bad omen! We're cursed."

Hiccup lets out a chuckle, still gripping his stomach in pain.

"Nonsense. What harm could he do?" Valka softly says, approaching the dragon and scooping him up.

Valka smiles and nods, holding the small dragon in front of her. "Now...who's hungry?"

...

The sound of laughter and lively chatter entered the groups ears as they entered the Great Hall, Vikings and dragons scattered around.

(Y/N) groans gently, removing her gloves and gripping her hand. Her prosthetic creaked as she tugged at the fingers, flexing her wrist and rolling her shoulders.

"You alright?" Hiccup questions gently, wrapping an arm around her waist and tugging her to his side.

She says nothing, just shakes her head and gestures to her hand. Hiccup looks down and nods, grabbing her hand and rubbing it gently.

(Y/N) sighs happily, leaning her head against Hiccup's shoulder and mumbling a small thank you.

"Alright, alright!," Gobber interrupts, shaking his head as they face him. "Point is, you can't keep bringing dragons back here."

"Look out!" (Y/N) gasps, ducking along with Hiccup as a baby dragon flies overhead.

"Come on, boy!" Snotlout laughs, playing with it as he runs by.

"You're just asking for trouble."

"Any news--" Hiccup holds his arm out, stopping (Y/N) as a dragon and man race past.

"No you don't, you little thief!"

"Any word on the trappers?" (Y/N) finishes, making Gobber sigh and nod.

"Aye. They're getting closer by the day."
Gobber solemnly says, lifting up a large tail as they duck under it.

"We can handle them," Hiccup replies, snagging two apples as a woman walks by with a platter. "We have the Alpha and commander! Ain't that right, buds?"

(Y/N) looks back, (D/N) looking at her uneasily as Toothless rumbles happily in response.

Hiccup hands her one of the apples as he continues, "Look at how happy they are here."

"Gobber might have a point, Hiccup," (Y/N) slowly agrees, looking around. "It's getting to crammed, and with the trappers getting closer.." she trails off, looking around uneasily.

"My love relax!" Hiccup softly says, tossing his apple over to Toothless as (Y/N) tosses hers to (D/N). "We did it. The world's first dragon-Viking utopia. Our dream became a reality!"

"Aye!" Gobber snaps, turning to face us.
"Your dreams. Mine's less crowded and more...

He raises a brow, turning and shrieking at the sight of the Hopgobbler in the stew.

"...sanitary!"

"Gobber, you're not fooling anybody," Hiccup chuckles, raising a brow at the man as he was offered a bowl of stew. "We know you love them."

Toothless snarls as he looks into the stew, the Hopgobbler whimpering as it swiftly swims out and rushes away.

(Y/N) shivers in disgust, shaking her head as she joins the others. "Don't.." she whispers to her mother and Astrid, both about to take a spoonful of the stew.

Astrid groans, pushing her plate away with a huff as (M/N) shoves it towards the twins, who eagerly devour the free meal.

"You're supposed to be the generation that leads us into the future!" Gobber continues his rant, making room for himself.

Hiccup sighs, sitting down at the end and leaving space in between him and Astrid for (Y/N).

She takes her seat with a sigh, raising a brow as (M/N) and Valka gesture to their left, making her turn before sighing.

Tuffnut wrestles for his food against Barf, resulting in the plate being yanked too hard and the food smacking Snotlout.

"Food fight!"

"Ruffnut.." (Y/N) says boredly, watching as she coos at a mug.

"Ooh, gorgeous," she purrs at it, making the (H/C) girl raise a brow and shake her head as a chicken leg hits her helmet.

"Watch the hair!"

"Fishlegs, do you not hear the chaos around
you--?"

Fishlegs continues focusing on Fishmeat, attempting to feed him as the Gronckle eats the spoon. A splatter of food strikes Gobber, making me snicker as he complains.

"Thor help us!"

(Y/N) shakes her head, holding out a rag to him as he reaches over Hiccup and snatches it. "Hmm. Time to stop worrying about problems out there.."

She grunts as he wraps an arm around her and Hiccup, squeezing them tight to his sides.

"..and start sorting out the ones right here!"

"Okay! Okay! I'lI think about it!" Hiccup's muffled voice frantically says as he tries to pull away. "Just-!"

"Let me go you ogre!!" (Y/N) yells, hitting Gobber's chest roughly, struggling to move his arm.

"Hang up those saddles and get married!"

Both teens go limp, their eyes wide and mouth parted in shock. (Y/N) ducks her head, avoiding eye contact as everyone in the hall stares at the royal couple with wide eyes.

"The M word..." Tuffnut grunts, his hand hovering in the air.

"Gross. Unless it's me," Ruffnut adds, hurling her food at Tuffnut.

"Oh great Odin's ghost!" (Y/N) manages in embarrassment, struggling to get out of his grip as Astrid leans over, pinching his arm as he squeals in pain, releasing her but keeping a hold on her boyfriend.

"Start ruling like a proper royal couple! Marry him, please!" Gobber begs, leaning towards (Y/N) as she looks away, her face burning and tears pricking her eyes from embarrassment.

"You're the only one with any sense around here. Sure, you're both the same, but better! With you wearing the pants, there's still hope!"

"Gobber! Leave her alone!" Hiccup's muffled voice yells as he continues fighting for freedom. "Wow! Not awkward at all!" Astrid shouts, rising and shaking her head.

"Marriage.." (Y/N) mumbles in disbelief, shaking her head as she makes her way outside, "Let's go (D/N)!" She calls, spinning around and rushing away, (D/N) roaring and swiftly following.

...

Hiccup gasps for air as he finally shoves
Gobber's arm off him, coughing violently before groaning and banging his head on the table.

"(Y/N).."

"Nice going, Gobber. You totally freaked (Y/N) out!" Astrid snaps, sighing in annoyance.

"Oh come now!"

"That was a definitive no." Tuffnut shakes his head, walking behind Hiccup. "I mean...the chick bolted. Ouch." Hiccup slowly raises his head, turning and glaring at Tuffnut.

"Look, if you need a beard to cry on," Tuffnut shoves Hiccup's face in his 'beard'. "Just lean on my shoulder, and you can cry into my full, thick beard."

"Oh, thank you, Tuffnut," Hiccup sarcastically replies, his bitter voice muffled. "Thank you, so much."

He yanks himself away with a huff, rising from his seat and rushing to Gobber and Astrid. "-I mean really!!"

"Gobber! Why did you do that?!" Hiccup demands, frantically ruffling his hair as he starts pacing.

"(Y/N) dosnet need to be pressured into marrying me when we haven't even talked about it!" He yells, running his fingers through his hair.

Gobber rolls his eyes, "But you weren't gonna-!" He's cut off by Hiccup, his voice loud and face red.

"I was going to ask her to marry me!"

The table goes quiet at his outburst, watching as their Chief ducks his head with a sigh.

"Wait really?!" Astrid yells with a smile, (M/N) approaching with a smirk. Hiccup looks up, his eyes dropping as he nods, "Yeah..but not like.." he gestures to Gobber, his eyes glaring.

"..this.."

"You just gestured to all of me!" Gobber yells, waving his arms around, but Hiccup dosnet listen.

"Gobber..why would you do that? Now (Y/N) will never accept his proposal!" (M/N) yells, Hiccup groaning loudly at the realization.

"Wanna cry on my beard?" Tuffnut randomly questions, the group slowly turning to him as he walks to Hiccup.

"No, Tuff--" Hiccup was interrupted by Tuffnut shoving his face in his 'beard'.

"Let it all out, man."

Eret walks over, pausing when he sees the two and awkwardly looking around and clearing his throat.

"Eret, son of Eret!" Hiccup greets, his voice muffled as he shoves himself away from Tuffnut. He sputters, groaning as he wipes his mouth. "What's the report?"

Eret nods, folding his arms with a firm look. "Two more trapper barges spotted in the strait."

"So we go after them." Hiccup nods, pausing as Gobber stares at him. "What?"

"One day, you're gonna pick a fight you can't win, and (Y/N) won't be there to protect you.."

Hiccup looks to the man, narrowing his eyes with a heavy sigh as he looks away.

"I'll go look for (Y/N).."
