“There were dragons when I was a boy...”

I’s a bit late to the party, but seeing baby Hiccup got me inspired to draw Hiccup’s baby. i think it’d be great if all these voice-overs of Hiccup speaking before/after each film were revealed to be him speaking to his child/grand-child.

Hey, do you have any headcanons about the possibility of Zeph and Fink to have another sibling, uh.. even more than one?

Haha, I have so many asks in my inbox right now so I’m going to combine a few when they match up.

To anon, I didn’t have any headcanons like that. I think Zeph and Fink canonically would be the last, although it’s perfectly plausible that there’d be another.

In FACT, this reminds me of a Lund situation. Back in ye olde days I had Garik and Roan and then the much younger (by 7 years after Roan) Lund who was an accident because Hiccup and Astrid got lazy in their age. Now Lund’s design is very much like Fink with the blonde hair and green eyes—though very, very different personalities in respects to Lund being both the youngest of three siblings and much younger at that.

If there were another baby, that’s how I’d see it go down. Accidental.

To Ninjas, GOSH I miss Jóra. All of my babies have been side-swiped for the canon babies, but I still adore what was created beforehand. A big part of Jojo’s personality was being the oldest child. Whenever I create children I always keep in mind birth order coming from a large, tight-nit family myself. She’d be entirely different, plus, likely, a different name, coming in last.

Though Jojo as the baby, with so much more allowance and freedom, does have a fun feel for it.

Jora &Astrid's relationship amuses me. Astrid behaves so weird.. it's almost a bit silly? (she reminds me of my own mother hahaha) What does Hiccup think of it? Does he ever take sides or just stay out of the female drama? What about grandma Valka?

Moms are weird.  I did an in-depth talk of Astrid and her daughter, where you can see that Astrid isn’t being unreasonable or anything, she just wants her daughter to excel at life (while not understanding why she’s so different, haha).

Grandma Valka, or Nana (not to be confused with Nánná) drives Astrid crazy sometimes because Jojo loves her.  Nana was a rebel back in her day and that’s the sort of thing a teenager wants to hear about (and the mother of said teenager does not). I spoke about Jóra and ‘Nana’ HERE and HERE, where you can basically get the gist that Nana encourages Jojo in ways Astrid doesn’t want her to be encouraged more often than not.

As for Hiccup? Yeah, he’ll stay out of it a lot depending on how petty it is. He’ll side with his wife (“Jojo, just train for an hour”, “Get out of bed, Jojo”, “Just get a clean tunic like your mother asked, Jo”), though sometimes in private he’ll have small talks with Astrid ( “So what if she doesn’t want to master an axe? Let her find something else.” “She doesn’t seem to want to find anything else, that’s the problem!” “Okay! Then she won’t master any weapon.” “Peace isn’t forever, Hiccup, and a VIking should know how to protect herself”).

Is there anyone Jojo doesn't like?

Well, yeah, Sigrid. And, superficially, her mother on occasion.  And Phelgma-the-Fierce’s grand Egg-of-a-Nephew after her brief infatuation with him ends. And Gustav, but more in an irritated kind of way.

Had jojo ever have a rival of some sort growing up?

I hadn’t quite thought of this yet. One of her on-and-off antagonists is certainly her mother in the typical growing-up-and-butting-heads sort of way. I’m trying to think of who she would have problems with…

I’m thinking of a Sigrid character that Astrid references in passing enough to annoy Jóra. A girl two or three years older, good at flying, good at weapons, and stylish. Typical rival situation, a really passive one too. Sigrid hardly acknowledges Jóra for a long time. But Astrid will say something like:

“Oh, did you see how Sigrid braided her hair today? It was really lovely. You should try it–” “Ew, mom, no, I don’t want to look like Sigrid.” “It’s not ‘looking like Sigrid’, it would look very pretty on you–” “Mom, no!”

Or

“I didn’t see you at the races today.” “I was there.” “Where?” “I don’t know, under the stands… why does it matter?” “Did you see Sigrid’s double barrel with that winning sheep?” “*Sigh* I wasn’t really paying attention…” “You should pay attention, you can learn a lot.” “Mom.” “Maybe Sigrid could give you some pointers. She’s really quiet the–” “NO.”

It gets to the point where Jojo tries to pawn off any smithy commissions from her family onto Gobber… which Gobber sort of rolls and eyes and says something about Hiccup never being so persnickety.

(Though one time Sigrid’s father told Jóra she had her ‘father’s talent’ in the smithy and since then she was a little more lenient about repairing weapons for them).

What is Jojo's relationship with Toothless like? PS, do ask about this too much?

No, no, I love Jojo questions! I’ve actually talked about Jojo and Toothless before.

To sum it up: Toothless loves Jojo and she him. Toothless is like a dad/uncle/nanny/friend to her.  She had her first flight on him. He (and eret) babysat her as a child. He’s very much a part of her family and one of her guardians.  Hell, he’s almost like her “Gobber” comparatively to what her father had growing up.
