Could you please do a description/personality traits on zephyr and nuffink
Aha really funny that you asked it because I was already planning one… Here you go!
I was excited for this sort mainly because we’ll know more about Zephyr and Nuffink. Because you know even if we see them at the end of HTTYD3, we could not really tell which personalities they got. It’s hard to define people in less than 5 minutes on the screen. So Homecoming really satisfied me in these terms.
Let’s start with Zephyr. As we already knew, she definitely has her father’s side regarding the inventions she develops. She obviously loves to create things! The notebook she wears in the epilogue goes in this direction but also tell us about an interest in books and stories etc. And we got it confirmed when we saw her sharing with her parents the researches she did on dragons and what she found.
That’s when I saw in her a lot of her mom’s side. Like Astrid, she doesn’t let herself be easily convinced. She read things, she read dragons are monsters so they are monsters, it’s written in black and white you know. So her parents have to prove the contrary. But she’s really stubborn, like her father. So even if the show is great, unlike her brother Nuffink, she still not believes dragons are good. She only changed her mind when she finally experienced the thing by herself and meet a real dragon, namely Toothless.
Also, we can find a lot of signs that shows that she acts just like her mom. First, yeah she love to create things but not just any kind. She creates weapons to defend her family from the dragons! She definitely got that from her mom. She’s protective like her. And a future warrior if we add to this the way she’s sharpening her knifes everywhere like her mom used to.

Also, can we talk about how protective she’s towards her little brother? This little girl is so brave!

This is so damn cute and it reminds me a lot of her parents’ side who were always protecting each other in RTTE. Well done, Hiccup and Astrid! Concerning the headcanons I could make after that, well, I think Zephyr thinks a lot, like a lot (like her father do) and it will maybe cause her some troubles when she’ll be older. Maybe she’ll overthink her relationships with others and will not know how to act with people of her age during her adolescence. But as a positive side, during the village’s council she’ll be able to help her father when he has big decisions to make. She’ll came up with new ideas and help him see clearer in his mind. And her daddy will tell her that’s what will make her a great chief. Also, I can clearly see her writing Hiccup’s memoirs because she’s been fascinated with his story and the story of her tribe. And since her father would maybe not want to write it, to keep the dragons a secret, she’ll do it to honor Berk’s story but maybe will keep that to herself and it would be her grandkids finding it and later, publishing it when the world doesn’t believe in dragons anymore.
But maybe I’m going too far aha… Anyway, she really is a beautiful mixed of her two parents
Nuffink now. This boy is such a sweat heart. He freaking loves his big sister and would do anything for her. I mean, look of how proud he is to follow her everywhere!
He really admires her. And that’s why I see more Hiccup’s side in him. He really got excited for everything he does and that’s so Hiccup’s like! But we can tell he’s his mama’s boy too. He loves to strike his head on everything and he’s ready to fight whenever it’s necessary.

Also, he liked to help her sister performing her new defense systems but I think he more likes to be into the action than building the thing. Nuffink seems like he can be easily influenced because he follows her sister everywhere but at the same time, you can see during the show that he’s not showing his excitement just because of Zephyr and because he wants to please her. And at the end of the show, he can’t contain it and just applauses with all his strength.

I headcanon that when he’ll be a teen, he would have an interest in navigation. Because he does not want to stay in New Berk, he wants to see the world (like his father) and so he became a great sailor and visits a lot of places! He would also bring his sister with him even she’s reluctant to the thing at first but once again, his excitement would finish convincing her. I can also definitely see him saving her sister many times when they’ll go on adventures together. And I think she’ll be grateful and not like Astrid saying that she doesn’t need the help of anyone. I think Zephyr would be wise enough to admit she needs her little brother in some situations.
Well, it was a bit longer than I expected to be but I hope you’ll like this analysis!
