Redeemed (Maybe)

Two Viking men figuring out how to run a blog together. Again. It’s difficult when you both have a thing for the same heroic Dragon Rider. Send your inquiries.

NO LONGER ON INDEFINITE HIATUS.

Ask away.

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

OOC: This blog will not be interacting with OCs. I have nothing against OCs, but this ask blog is not made for that kind of interaction. I may have allowed it at one point (I can't remember), but will not be responding to those kinds of asks, replies, or reblogs. Thank you.

If you two were to fight… who would win?

Dagur: Oh! Me, me, me!!! Obviously!

Viggo: Have you taken into account the facts that I am larger and stronger than you?

Dagur: I know that! No need to rub it in! But I’m faster than you because I’m not built like a lumbering troll!

Viggo: I beg your pardon?!

Dagur: Yeah, I said it. Lumbering. Bumbling. Troll.

Viggo: I am trying to be civil with you, but if you have the nerve to insult me again I’ll—

Dagur: Your mother was a goat.

Viggo: Excuse me?!

Dagur: Anon, hold on. Let me get my axe.

Viggo: At least I’ve learned from our dear Hiccup how to make a fire sword!

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Any of you interested in or thought about having kids? If so around how many?

Viggo: I know I should probably be attempting to “officially” carry on my bloodline, but I truly have no care for children. Perhaps… one with the right person would do.

Dagur: What do you mean by “officially”?

Viggo: Come now, Dagur, you don’t think I don’t have a few bastards running around, do you?

Dagur: I see…

Viggo: Are you going to just judge me, or do you plan on answering the question as well?

Dagur: I wasn’t judging. I mean, uh, I… might have one or two of those… But, ahem, yeah, I think kids would be nice, honestly. I do like the little chaos gremlins. Two or three would be so fun! And cute. Don’t forget cute.

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Is there any little habit of Hiccup that you guys are specially fond of? If yes, which one?

Viggo: Though I would not categorize a stutter in one’s speech as a habit, the first thing that came to mind was indeed Hiccup’s stutter. It’s an endearing imperfection.

Dagur: He rubs the back of his head or neck when he’s embarrassed and it’s cute. I try to make him blush at the same time to make him even cuter.

Meow

Midnight the Cat: Brrt!!!

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Dagur: An update on Midnight! She’s doing very well and likes to bring us the fruits of her hunt!

Viggo: If only the fruits of her hunt were not a pile of dead leaves in my bed at 3 in the morning!

Dagur: Get over it. You don’t even sleep!

Viggo: I do sometimes. And she always knows when so she can have the most fun disturbing me.

Dagur: I don’t know, man. Close your door at night?

Viggo: Ah, I see she has kept it a secret from you that she can squeeze herself under doorways. It’s a bit like a Cavern Crasher, at least visually. Fascinating and horrifying all at once.

Dagur: Midnight, why didn’t you tell me this?

Midnight: Meow?

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Would you consider an arranged marriage with a female hiccup when you were still enemies with him?

Viggo: I am trying to give the benefit of the doubt and assuming that Hiccup's gender has been changed in this fictional scenario because of how the rules of an arranged marriage would work? The answer from me, regardless of gender, would be yes.

Dagur: Well, yeah. I'd probably be the one arranging the marriage. It's Hiccup for Thor's sake! He's quite the prize!

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Do any of you guys like mushrooms?

Dagur: So... do you mean mushrooms like... like as an ingredient in a dish or... the way Tuffnut likes mushrooms?

Viggo: You know, learning that Tuffnut Thorston imbibes certain mushrooms explains a lot about any interaction I've ever had or witnessed with him. I can assure you I have never actually tried such a kind of intoxication.

Dagur: What a flowery way to say you're a coward who won't try new things.

Viggo: Apologies if I prefer keeping my wits about me, but I suppose it's not much for a man who's never had them.

Dagur: I'm going to kill you.

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

LOOK HICCUP SHIRTLESS! Hah! Made you look

Dagur: Don't play with me like that!!! If this wasn't the internet, I'd--!

Viggo: Dagur, please don't threaten them. Mayhaps they are a little deserving of your wrath, but not to such an extent.

Dagur: ...

Dagur: Fine. But know I will be distracted by thinking of shirtless Hiccup for the rest of the day and it's your fault!

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

What qualities exactly attract each of you in Hiccup? What's so special about him?👀

Dagur: His courage. It's definitely his courage. I mean, I fell for him years ago because I had thought he'd saved me from a Night Fury. It's funny looking back at it, honestly.

Viggo: Most certainly his intelligence and ingenuity. Someone younger than me who can match me intellectually is incredible. I never find myself bored by his presence, unlike I do with a lot of other people.

Dagur: Plus he's hot. Like, so hot.

Viggo: Yes, I can definitely agree that he's also physically attractive.

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Are you too jealous of it comes to a lover?

Dagur: Um, duh! That person is supposed to be mine!

Viggo: It depends on the person and what role they’re filling as my lover. If we are simply sexual partners, then I harbor no jealousy towards other relationships they may have. But if they fulfill a much more… important role, then yes, I would find myself jealous.

Dagur: You’re thinking about Hiccup, aren’t you?

Viggo: Oh, and you’re not, what with your instant call to jealousy?

Dagur: I never said I wasn’t—just that I’d be jealous. Even if said lover isn’t Hiccup, I’d be jealous.

Welcome back!! Rank the dragonriders based on who could win a 1 vs 1 against each of you

Dagur: Hi! That’s quite the request to start with! Haha, no worries though. I think we’ve answered something similar before, but gods know how long ago that was. I’ll start! Easiest to hardest!

Fishlegs - Look at the guy. He wouldn’t hurt a fly? I hope…

Tuffnut - Easy to distract.

Snotlout - Too much ego. Also easy to distract.

Ruffnut - You’ll think you have her figured out and then get stabbed in the most random spot.

Hiccup - He’s smart and fast, but doesn’t have the same muscle I do.

Astrid - Let’s not talk about the time I was trying to invade Dragon’s Edge and she had her axe to my throat.

Viggo: Well, I haven’t crossed blades with every single one of the Dragon Riders as Dagur most likely has, but I have seen all of them in battle and like to think I know their strengths and weaknesses. I will also be ranking them as easiest to hardest.

Ruffnut and Tuffnut - I put these two together because even in combat with a single one of them, the situation can easily be manipulated to defeat both of them at once. They are recklessly stubborn and care for each other far too much.

Snotlout - He’s small and has admitted to being frightened by me.

Fishlegs - Do not be fooled by his soft nature. He has incredible strength when he needs to use it.

Astrid - Most certainly formidable as an opponent, but she also has a flaw of being too stubborn. She is also overly confident in her combat abilities, and a perfectionist. It would be easy to take her out once she’s lost her cool.

Hiccup - He’s about on par with Astrid: formidable, but stubborn and passionate. I dare say he would be a frightening killer if not for his compassion. His swordsmanship is very good, but he also doesn’t have the same strength I do.

Dagur: …

Dagur: Why did you write an essay?

Viggo: Would you rather I do what the children these days do and make a “video essay”?

Dagur: No. Then we’d all be subject to your obnoxious voice.

Viggo: Says the man with a cackle so prominent it seems the whole world knows about it.

Dagur: It… it suits me! Stop typing!!! And looking so smug while doing it!!!

Viggo: I’m not sure what this cryptic message means.

Dagur: They probably hit send too early. Come back, anon!

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

What was going on between you and Krogan?

Viggo: Nothing other than wanting each other dead, really. Working with a Changewing would have been preferable to him.

Dagur: Yeah, the guy was very set on killing those who sided with Hiccup. Flirting with him just made him fling more fire at you. Very disappointed in that regard.

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

I was gonna ask you guys something but I forgot what it was

So instead I'm just gonna *throws snowballs at both of them and runs*

Dagur: Agh! You can't initiate a snowball fight and then run! Coward! This means war!

Viggo, disgruntled and wiping snow off himself: While it is unbecoming to be attacked with a snowball, don't you think that declaring war is a bit unnecessary?

Dagur, beginning to gather snow: I don't think so, no.

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Dagur: We're doing what we do best and returning from the grave!

Viggo: I can argue that I do other things better than that, but yes, we are announcing our return to this hellish landscape you refer to as tumblr. Our inbox will be open shortly.

[ask-viggo-and-dagur]

Are you still running the blog?

Out of character: I would like to. I have a long backlog of asks to answer, and I've enjoyed doing this. I am just struggling with a lot lately, and don't have the energy for this. Hopefully I will sometime in the future.
