(Hiccup being the gentle father he wished he had)

A drabble of Hiccup holding Zephyr for the first time? 🥹🙏🏼

Family of Three

It had been a long night full of waiting and full of worry. He watched as Astrid struggled and strained, not complaining once when she nearly crushed his hand or deafened him with her screams, because in the grand scheme of things it really didn't matter if he was hurt. All that mattered to him was that his wife and their baby were safe and healthy.

And as dawn came, so did the newest Haddock. Hiccup watched in awe as they lifted the baby-- his and Astrid's baby-- cleaning the newborn off and lowering them into his waiting arms.

"Congratulations, Chief. You have a daughter."

Hiccup gazed down in wonder at the little bundle in his arms. She was so small, so terribly fragile and absolutely beautiful. He held her gingerly, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead as a tear slid down his cheek. It was clear she had Astrid's nose in addition to his auburn hair.

She was perfect.

He'd been waiting for this moment since he knew she was coming, and it was worth the wait to have her in his arms. A perfectly healthy baby girl, the first female Haddock to be born in several generations.

Hiccup's eyes teared up even more at that revelation. She was already breaking tradition, just like her father.

His watery eyes found Astrids, and despite looking utterly exhausted, she mirrored the joy he was emanating. A laugh of pure joy bubbled from him as he looked back down at his daughter. Her little hand grabbed onto his finger with surprising strength. "Hi Zephyr," his voice was full of emotion. "I'm your dad. And...gods, is it great to finally meet you. Daddy loves you so much, little one."

As much as he didn't want to let her go, she needed to be held by her mother. Astrid was reaching for the baby, and Hiccup carefully lowered her into his wife's arms. "You did a great job, Milady. She looks just like you."

Wrapping his arms around his little family, Hiccup couldn't tear his eyes away from Zephyr. Her hand was still wrapped around his finger, and couldn't be happier.

Apparently it's good for parents to go skin to skin contact with a newborn.

Apparently. I dunno. I have no kids.

If this is true, who agrees with me Hiccup does it with his kids?

Sometimes I think about How Hiccstrid became parents like I dreamed of in 2012 and then I cry a lil

Seeing Chief Hiccup is such a treat to me 🤧🙌

Dadcup Appreciation

[dragonnnfly]

Listen, you don’t need a dragon to use the flight suit, you just need to be up high, like on a cliff, so imagine Dadcup still has the flight suit and one day is like “wouldn’t it be fun surprising Zephyr and Nuffink by flying through the air in front of them” so he does it and of course he effortlessly scares the ever living crap out of those poor children
