Lyf's : HICCSTRID HEADCANON Pt 1

Lyf's : HICCSTRID HEADCANON pt 1

We all know Hiccup is a romantic (just look at rtte and his speeches to Astrid). And as we progress into season six, and httyd 2 we see that he is more and more confident in his relationship with her often making the first move. So I deduce that as confident as Hiccup is, Astrid's direct and easy-going-ness in the relationship also encouraged Hiccup subconsciously, giving him the itty bitty nudge to like get him going and take charge ( if hopefully, you get what I mean).

But what if Hiccup's romantic nature and corniness also rubbed off on Astrid a little bit? Like just imagine:

Hiccup sketching diagrams of his new inventions and calculating the scalars and vectors of respective functions with Astrid next to him swiping the whetstone over her axe in his workroom when she stops and gets bored so she ends up watching him since she's too exhausted from the day's training to move, and just finds focused Hiccup with his tongue stuck out slightly as he fiddles with the charcoal trying to get the proportions right on parchment when he feels his eyes on her. He asks her "what's up" to which she replies a cheesy pick up line, only half focused on his question.

Hiccup blushes hard and fumbles stammering and gaping because he's completely caught off-guard before he turns away chuckling and shakes his head internally cringing at her attempt of corniness since its so-not-Astrid replying to her line in a suave way (which of course fails hard) and they both end up laughing going back to what they were doing before just comfortable of each other's presence next to each other not needing physical contact.

P.S imma write this fanfic in my empty AO3 one day... one day

YES. AS A HARDCORE PJO AND HTTYD FAN I APPROVE. I can imagine Annabeth looking at the one Hiccstrid scene "'what're gonna do about it?' 'Probably something stupid'" and going "that's us in a nutshell Seaweed Brain "

percy jackson and annabeth chase’s favorite tradition is snuggling up on the couch on a friday night with pizza and blankets and watching how to train your dragon

YESSSS

Ayo it's your 2's day!!!

I mean I always crushed on skinny guys with freckles so Hiccup was 👌👌👌

I know a lot of us on here call Hiccup attractive, and he is! What I find super great about this is that he’s not necessarily conventionally attractive or attractive by any set standards of masculinity.

What conventional standards of attractiveness would consider to be Hiccup’s physical flaws:

His weight. He really is pretty skinny.

Hair is usually somewhat of a mess

Big nose

Big ears

Teeth have a gap in the front

Not noticeably muscular

Nasally voice

What’s great is that these so-called “flaws” can actually be considered endearing, cute, attractive, etc. Hiccup is human, and hence not perfect, but his imperfection does not make him lack in perceived attractiveness. Despite this list of imperfections, much of the fandom still finds him attractive. Even other characters consider him attractive!

Basically, what I’m trying to say is that it’s fantastic that so many people see a physically imperfect character as attractive.

Another Hiccstrid Headcanons where Astrid always leans into Hiccup liking his clean scent of dew from the clouds after his flight with Toothless, or his bitter musty and metallic scent of soot and metal whenever he's in the forge tinkering. It reminds Astrid of comfort and I'm pretty sure Astrid and Toothless' sudden hugs are the ones Hiccup doesn't turn down or tries to escape from.

Otp prompt #53

“I like the way you smell” A mumbled into B’s shoulder as they hugged, desperate not to break contact because it meant B would be going home.

“Thank you?” B chuckled not quite sure if it was a compliment.

A’s arms tightened around B as the two stood there hugging, A wishing B would stay and B secretly wishing to never leave A’s grasp.
