Becoming Lífþrasir

People often wondered what kept Hiccup going during those early years. When that single, most-treasured thing is taken from him, there is little left to keep him on Berk. The day Stoick returns, and the day before the best recruit is finally chosen, Hiccup leaves Berk; little knowing that he would one day return under ... strange circumstances. H/A, R/F, rated for violence.

Winter in Líf's Holt

Hiccup is back on Berk after having been missing for five years, just on time to hunker down for the Winter. But will the seemingly endless season hold beauty and happiness for him, or will everything that happened so quickly finally catch up with him? Rated for violence, colourful Viking language and some adult situations.

Chasing Thunderstorms

Astrid Hofferson's life is perfect, but then she realizes that it's not even close. And there's this dorky boy in her Norse Mythology class who she shouldn't feel so strongly about. Modern AU. (Note: Specific race times and splits taken from course records on actual courses. Yes, some are slow. Yes, they are accurate, courses vary based on difficulty and altitude)

Snap

He was just supposed to fix her back, and she doubted that at first. She definitely didn't expect to get dragged into the ethics of a girlish crush. Modern AU.

Consort of the Sun

Berk is lost. Conquered by the barbaric and cruel Yorvani. In an attempt to save his people and their traditions, Prince Hiccup agrees to become consort of War Chief Astrid, Divine Leader of the Yorvani. Will he survive in a new culture? Or will he somehow find love and a new home? [AU. Hiccstrid]

Special Gifts

Everyone in the world is born with a Special Gift; something that makes them unique, that makes them feel worthy and makes them worth keeping in a tribe. Hiccup thinks he knows what his Special Gifts are; he was born with them, after all. But is he right? -AR, retelling. Not the sci-fi-esque story this summary implies. Complete as of the thrice-updated epilogue; revision's hard.

You're Everything I Want (And Nothing I Can Keep)

"Prove it. Bring her along this weekend, and prove it to everyone." After a little white lie, Hiccup has to do something drastic to avoid embarrassing himself at a family reunion. Lost for any other ideas, Hiccup asks his best friend to pretend to be his girlfriend, just for a day. What could possibly go wrong? [Fake Dating AU]

another magical Friday night / I think I’ll sit this one at home / unusual, for me, I know / but please, go ahead

in which Astrid and Hiccup are best friends and completely oblivious to what's right under their noses (until they're not)

BFFs

Hiccup and Astrid grew up next door to each other and have been best friends forever, about as long as Hiccup has had a crush on her. Astrid's been sending mixed signals lately in the form of flirty texts and gestures, but Hiccup's too nervous to act on them, worried he's interpreting her intentions wrong. Maybe a night spent out under the stars for a meteor shower will clear the air.

Everything You Want

Astrid pulls a girl move and wonders why Hiccup doesn't seem to have such an obvious crush on her anymore, as in "you used to pay attention to me and now you don't and I don't like it." Too bad she can't keep her mouth shut about it, but it takes some coaxing to make Hiccup open his.
