Hiccup wakes chained in the bottom of an oubliette, far beneath the earth's surface, entombed in walls of stone. Completely helpless, completely alone, easily the most desperate predicament he's ever been in. And then it gets worse. A Triple Cross AU in two parts.

Upon closer inspection, his cell looked more like a glorified hole or an empty well, perfectly circular and wide enough to just accommodate a Monstrous Nightmare's wingspan.
An oubliette, he thought grimly, squinting up at the ceiling where he could only just make out the outline of a trapdoor, no ladder in sight.
Utilizing his fear became suddenly far more of a challenge. Because it was one thing to be trapped in a dungeon, waiting to be tortured. But a place like this? A hole in the ground? He could think of only one reason that a prisoner would be placed in an oubliette: To rot. A person only buried something if they planned to discard it for good.
He'd been chained down here to die. And this time, there would be no clever escape. Hiccup was smart, and he'd weaseled himself out of more than a few tight spots over the years, but this, chained in a stone-walled oubliette without his prosthetic, deep beneath the surface of the earth, with damp, towering walls too slick to climb even if he had use of his arms and legs…
Unless rescue came swooping down from the skies — which he wanted to hope for, but oubliettes were also notoriously difficult to find if rescuers didn't know exactly what they were looking for — the inside of this hole would be the last thing he'd ever see.
His breath hitched. No! Stop it! Stop panicking and think!
But what was the point of thinking if he couldn’t think himself out of his prison? And what was the point of remembering what had happened when he already knew what was to come?
Hiccup gulped in the deepest breath he could muster, desperate to combat the paralyzing fog — then froze, heart ricocheting against his ribs, as he met some kind of resistance. His chest would only expand so far. It took all his floundering courage to look down, and once he did, he wished at once that he had not.
A heavy shackle — probably one meant for a dragon's neck encircled his abdomen, tight and unyielding. Hiccup, numb with shock, followed the path of its enormous chain to its end, where it had been bolted to the floor. Which was as confusing as it was concerning — chaining him to the floor was both complete overkill and needlessly dramatic… So what was the point?
But this puzzle, at least, gave him something besides the swelling mass of fear to focus on. Whoever had taken him was either over-the-top with their security, obscenely dramatic, or particularly cruel. He could work with that. If he could figure out who had captured him, maybe he could remember what had happened, and then he could—
His whirring mind stalled, fear fraying at the edges of purpose like a moth to old clothes.
And then what? He'd still be stuck here. He'd still die down here.
But at least he'd die as himself, not just a shell that fear had carved open and hollowed out and filled with its own maddening venom. He'd die as Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, Dragon Rider and heir to Berk. He'd die as the son of the mighty Stoick the Vast, not unafraid but uncowed by his own fear. He would die, but he would still win, because he would not die a coward.
Easier said than done, but Hiccup had never been one to take the easy way out.

Here is two pieces of fanart for the fanfic "Of the Northmost Winds and Skies" by xxiiyu on ao3
It's frfr so good
Bitches do be butchering word spellings so badly that even spell check has no clue wtf they're trying to say.
(it's me. I'm bitches.)
Oh, I can see myself getting addicted to making word clouds for my fic lmao ... This is so satisfying to look at and to see the words I used most represented like this.
This is from my latest fic, Written in Ink, Signed in Blood.
The word cloud generator I used is wordclouds.com. (I did not use AI at all.)
reading the work of authors clearly smarter and more eloquent than i will ever be is always akin to the spiderman meme of miles studying peter. these words you weave have me enamored beyond comprehension, good wizard. please, another one
whatchu saying hiccup?
part 2 of this !
so strange when people assume 'waking up early' means increased productivity bc no??? im awake so i can read fanfic in bed before breakdown
BREAKFAST
Gift comm for @khaotiklly of their wonderful fic <3
Quite possibly my favorite scene in this fic, and you drew it so beautifully ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭 I will be chewing on this gorgeous art for DAYS.
Friend in an alleyway | my wife sent me this photo the other day and said "you HAVE to draw this." and I agreed completely <:
your whump is so terror inducing and visceral that I can legitimately feel it thank you so much for sharing your writing your fics are the best of the best <3
Oh wow, thank you so so much, anon!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I can't tell you how much it means to hear that my writing has had such an impact (though also sorry for making you feel the whump lol)! Thank you again so much for the kind words - they're such an encouragement and an inspiration to write more whump!!! 💖

Stranger things AU 👁👁
I’m trying to loosen up my sketches so I can draw more without stressing about making them perfect :’) Hopefully then I won’t end up spending hours on what’s supposed to just be fun scribbles...
