They're So Comfortable With Each Other Like Gosh I Want That Kind Of Friendship And Romance Please Thor - Tumblr Posts
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
