Hiccstrid Drabble ft. Heatheret | Parent Picnic

This whole thing is dedicated to @triumphantfury since she asked so nicely. 😘 I was working on a full on fic but this thing called plot came along and threw my idea in a ditch so I spat this out. Enjoy the fluff and innuendos!

~ ~ ~

Zephyr and Nuffink shouted and ran about the green park expanse. Astrid sighed and let the heavy bag of toys she was carrying drop as Hiccup carefully set down the cooler full of drinks and layed out the blankets.

“Hey!” a voice cried out cheerfully. Astrid turned to see Heather waving as she walked over, a huge picnic basket effortlessly hanging on one arm. “Long time no see,” she nudged her friend. Astrid grinned.

“Oh yeah, that time we ran into each other in the parking lot six minutes ago was forever ago,” she joked.

“Hey Hic, need any help?” Eret, Heather’s husband called. Hiccup looked up to see the broad, cheerful man come up to him with his almost five year old daughter, Amber on his shoulder. 

“Nah, I’m good, thanks Eret,” Hiccup returned. “Hey Amber! It’s nice to see you!”

“Amber!” Nuffink had returned from his lap around the field and greeted his friend enthusiastically. He was already five and the two of them were best of friends along with Zephyr.

Amber squirmed wildly until Eret set her down, chuckling. Nuffink grabbed her hand and pulled her toward his sister, who was rifling through the bag of toys.

“Put everything back when you’ve found what you’re looking for,” Astrid instructed her eldest. “Wow, Heather, This thing is huge!”

“I know I didn’t have to make this much, but let’s be honest; we’re gonna eat all of it,” Heather rolled her eyes. Astrid grinned unabashedly and helped her unpack. Their husbands joined them on the blankets, chatting about the struggles with kids and car seats.

“People act like the Terrible Twos are the worst part and then you’ve gotten through it; nobody told you it’s just the beginning!” Eret was complaining. “And now she’s bigger and louder and stronger with a temper like her mother.” Heather whipped her head around and scoffed indignantly while Astrid bit back her smile.

“Oh I get you. And Nuffink’s just been getting bigger, y’know, so when he doesn’t want to go into the carseat there is literally no room left to kinda squeeze him in; if he’s not cooperating, he’s not going in and he knows it,” Hiccup ranted.

“He really has been getting bigger!” Heather exclaimed. “I mean it’s only been, what? A month? Since we last saw him but he’s already way bigger than you were at that age.”

Hiccup rolled his eyes, “Yes, thank you for reminding me how tiny I was. I am glad he won’t be so small though; being picked on sucked.” Astrid squeezed his hand in sympathy.

“But boy was he a joy to carry full term,” Astrid commented sarcastically. Heather cooed in commiseration. “Zephyr was small and on the early side, but Nuff was big and in no rush. Apparently he and his father inherited different things from ‘Stoick the Vast.’”

Hiccup sputtered terrifically and Eret choked on the sandwich he had just bit into. Astrid threw her head back and laughed at her husband’s expression. Heather wasn’t much better, forcefully patting Eret on the back as tears gathered in the corner of her eyes.

“It’s not like they haven’t heard it all before,” Astrid giggled. Her husband blushed, scratching at the attractive stubble at his jaw. It was almost thick enough to be a beard at this point. “And Heather’s totally returned the favor; I know all about Eret too.” Said man winced and swallowed his sandwich with difficulty.

“See this,” Heather declared, turning to him, “Is why I do the blowing in this relationship.” Hiccup and Astrid sniggered.

“I can blow just fine,” Eret said indignantly. “I’d be happy to provide a demonstration on Hiccup if you’re so set on seeing proof.” He waggled his eyebrows.

“Woah!” cried Hiccup, waving his arms around frantically. “No need for that.”

“For the last time, he’s taken, Eret,” Astrid drawled. “Been married for like, a decade.”

“Technically, our nine year anniversary is in five and a half months.” She shot him a look. “But, I’ve definitely been taken for over a decade by you. And, y’know, best part of my life,” he continued hurriedly.

“Smooth, Hiccup,” Heather teased.

“Besides, Eret, I doubt you could look as hot as Astrid on her knees,” he smirked. His wife flushed and swatted his shoulder.

“I mean . . .” Heather trailed off suggestively.

“I could’ve gone without hearing that,” Hiccup groaned. Eret puffed out his chest dramatically.

“Auntie Heather, I’m hungry,” Nuffink announced. Heather smiled and handed him a sandwich.

“I’m sure you are, with how big you’re getting,” she told him seriously. “Are Amber and Zephyr hungry too?” The little boy shook his head vehemently. Astrid opened the cooler for him to get a drink.

“Hey, bud, that is not a soda,” Hiccup said sternly as Nuffink grabbed a can. Eret chuckled. Nuffink pouted as Astrid handed him a bottle of water. They watched the little boy waddle back to the girls.

“You’re coming to Amber’s birthday party next week, right?” Heather asked.

“Absolutely.”

So, rare pair ask! (Even though you never asked for this) What are your thoughts on Heather/Eret? I mean I think I saw hints of them in your Dance of Power Trilogy and so I think you're at least aware of the ship?

What head canons would you give them? How did you find out of this ship?

What would you rate them from squick/nOTP to OTP?

And the most important question of all: Do you think they deserve more fanfiction?

I think this ship would just be very sexy and so is your writing so I thought of you. Hope your having a great day, and that it gets better after you see this ask!

Thank you! I love this!

Yes, I am aware of the ship, and I have included it in the first two books in my trilogy (so far). I know they aren’t everyone’s cup of tea and they never actually meet in canon, but I honestly always thought this ship was a good one regardless. I first stumbled across it in a fic on FFic.net forever ago. I can’t remember what the story actually was, and I don’t think I even read it all the way through as it was a little rough around the edges structure wise, but I do remember this ship standing out. It resonated enough with me that it was pretty much the ONLY thing I remember about the story. They absolutely need more fanfiction, imo! Lol

As for head canons…

Heather and Eret have such similar character personalities that it’s hard for me to not picture them together. Both of them are very able warriors with a heart of gold, who simply want to find a place they belong. They both have clearly defined baggage and difficult pasts. They both go through similar(ish) journeys as they evolve from untrustworthy enemy, to loyal ally and honorary member of the gang. Heathlegs never really made much sense to me in the long run, as they are just too different. Heathret seems to make more sense in my mind.

I see them being one of those disgusting couples that challenge each other constantly, but rarely actually fight. Unfortunately both of them seem the type to close up and run instead of communicating their feelings anytime a problem or conversation tweaks a painful nerve or memory, which is difficult for a relationship. Thankfully they are also both uniquely positioned to understand EXACTLY why the other is skulking off. I bet after any fight, one of them would probably hunt the other down and refuse to let them hide, while at the same time not forcing them to talk about it while they are both upset. Just holding them and reassuring them that they are here, and aren’t going anywhere.

I also see them coming to Astrid and Hiccup for advice, A LOT. The four of them would absolutely become ‘couples friends’ where they get together with their kids and have camping trips, and game nights, and family barbecues (something that I actually don’t really see Hiccstrid doing with Rufflegs). The four of them just click, and they compliment each other so well. I’d love to see fics of their family shenanigans as their kids grow and play and get into trouble together. I think it would be hilarious and adorable, and they would all have the most beautiful babies! OMG!

Lastly, I think Eret and Heather would be healthy for each other. Eret is a little more reserved and thoughtful, while Heather is a bit more abrupt and reactive, but they would both be fiercely protective of the other (and their kids). They would balance each other out, and could give each other the stable homes and families they so crave. Of course there would definitely be some struggles at first as they tried to figure out exactly who wore the pants in the relationship, but I believe they’d work through that eventually too.

Now you know where I stand. I’d be very interested to hear your opinions/head canons. Perhaps you could even write a short Drabble about one of those head canons… 😉 (no pressure of course, but your writing is quite beautiful so… 😛😅)

Heather and Eret~ requested by @nightfurylover31 (I hereby grant you permission to use this in your video :))

This one made me realize that I’ve barely drawn Eret until now :o

[avannak]

Ever thought of Hethret? You know being a the bad side and turning to the good and connecting over it?

#heatret

except it more turns into Eret and Heather vying for Hiccup and Astrid’s attention in a competitive manner

[nightfurylover31]

I want more fanart of Heather and Eret together!

If somebody could do that, I'd be very grateful!
