Sooooo, Gift of the Night Fury, do you think Hiccup did that mating flight knowing it was the completion of the courting ritual or? Him somehow? Doing that for the first time? Without prompting?
I’m all for the “Hiccup is a genius but also a complete dumbass that isn’t aware he has already been mated for years until…”
But come on. There is no way he suddenly does a mating flight, right after mating season, after his dragon, who left, not to find a mate like all the other dragons, but instead to get him a courting gift the precious helmet that he lost, WITHOUT FUCKING KNOWING WHAT HE IS DOING.
Seriously, Hiccup 100% knew what Toothless meant. And 100% reciprocated.
