Hummm... I'll take "almost kiss" and "bath tub".
Because you didn’t specify a ship, I’m going to be self-indulgent and write for Tuffnut/Eret. However, if you wanted Hiccstrid, someone else requested the same topic so I will be doing both.
Yes, I know I’m the only person in this fandom that ships Tuff/Eret but I will go down with this ship
Almost Kiss and Bath Tub:
Takes place during the aftermath of Drago’s attack on Berk
A foreigner at best and a dragon trapper at worst, Eret has yet to find his place in the tribe.
The only people who have truly accepted Eret are Hiccup, Valka, and the dragon riders. Everyone else is wary of him but trusts him because they trust Hiccup.
Eret goes to the bathhouse on laurdag and finds the only tub with any room is the one the male dragon riders have occupied.
except Hiccup because I H/C that he is insecure about his stump and probably bathes at home (or in a natural hot spring that he and Toothless share exclusively with Astrid).
Fishlegs and Tuffnut welcome him, and Snotlout goes along with them even though he is super jealous of Eret’s height and muscles.
The four talk about life on Berk, living with dragons, and other man stuff.
Then, Snotlout starts wrestling and rough-housing trying to show off how much stronger he is than Eret.
Eret, not really wanting to cause a scene, tries to just end his bath early
but Snotlout pushes/knocks into him as he is trying to get out and WHOOPS
He lands on top of Tuffnut
Their lips are really close
Blushing, Eret leaves while Snotlout jeers at him
Ruffnut is SHOOK and JEALOUS when she hears about it
Check back this weekend when a real drabble will be posted! :)
