A Tale of Chiefs (The Lion King AU)

First of, they are not lions. Someday, I may write a re-do of my friend's old fic A Viking's Pride. At first, I wanted to write an ending for her work but I can never find the muse enough to do it. Maybe I'll figure it out by doing this. For this story, I may or may not do it. If not, then this is here for anyone who wants to use it too.

An Awkward Scion (The Lion King!AU)

Stoick is the proud chief of Berk, recently made a father to what their people would consider a hiccup. Regardless, he had fate that his son would grow to a fine chief someday. A few years later, his son grew and the people still think it's a little less then evident that he would be expected to become as fine a chief that Stoick currently was. Still, Stoick and Valka knew the time would come that their son would grow into the role. A hidden foe intends to stir up trouble. However, it may just be what would be necessary for the young man to grow into his destined role.

Drago wants to become the ultimate chieftain. To do that, he intends to wipe out all the scions of each island; Hiccup, Jack, Rapunzel, and Merida.

The Rebellious Scion (Simba's Pride!AU)

Years after Hiccup was made chief of Berk, he becomes the proud father to a young boy. Jim's part Viking and another part mageborn, everyone expects him to be the most powerful chief to be yet. Jim thinks it would be much more fun to become a normal person, without any obligation to take care of a whole village. Meanwhile, Dimitri is an orphan and bought as a slave warrior. He works for Viggo and Ryker, later becoming the key to a plan to take down all the chiefs of Berk, Crescentia, Corona, and Dun Broch.

Except nobody expected a chance encounter of two youngsters to interfere with the plan.

AU Lore

Berk is only one of the important islands. The others are Crescentia, the island of Mageborns. Corona island, ruled by chief Frederic and lady Arianna. Dunbroch island, ruled by chief Fergus and lady Elinor.

Drago, similar to Httyd 2, tries getting all the chief to turn to him and acknowledge him to become a supreme chieftain. Of course, they refused. For a while, he was never seen again after an attempt to kill them all.

The four islands were once at war with each other. But when dragons arrived, they worked together to fend them off.

Dialogue ideas

Stoick: Look at the people, Hiccup. They are yours; someday, you will become a fine chief worthy of leading them. Hiccup: But... All of them? They all look... Much strongew and bravew than me. 'm just... Tiny. Valka: Of course you are, you're but a babe, love. *hugs him tightly* Hiccup, giggling: But Snotlout's 'bout my age... But he's already bigger than me. Valka: Maybe, but you know, there's more to strength than by just how big you are. Hiccup: Huh? Stoick: Don't worry about it now, son. When you're ready... You'll understand.

Jack: So how do we ditch the big guy? Hiccup: I'm thinkin'... You could distract him, then I'll go on ahead and wait for you there. Jack: Wha... How? Hiccup: I don't know, you come up with a plan for that yourself. Jack: C'mon Hic, you can think of a plan better than that...

Gobber: One day you two are going to be married! Jack: Uh, ew... Hiccup: Gross! I can't marry him; he's my friend, and a guy! Jack: What he said. Aster: Sorry to burst it to ya, but it's been arranged. Aster: Besides Jack, that isn't an issue with our kind. With mageborns being as scarce a race as we are, even guys adapted to copulate and produce offsprings. Jack: A what? Gobber, nudging the man: Uh, too early for that talk, don't ya think? Aster: You're the one who brought up bloody marriage. Hiccup: THERE'S BLOOD IN MARRIAGE?! Jack: That's it, I'm never getting married.

Nightlight: You have to go Jack. Jack: No! I'm not leaving you. Nightlight: If Crescentia and our neighboring islands are to have a future, you must. Nightlight: And I still have some magic in me, so don't you count your brother out just yet. Jack: Please... Don't ask me to leave you, I can help! Nightlight: You can. But it's not by staying, you need to find Hiccup. Jack: Hiccup?! But... He's been dead for years! Nightlight: It seems like not everything is what it appeared...

Hiccup: Wait, no Jack! Stop, stop! Jack: What?! How do you know my name?! Hiccup: How do I... Oh, sorry. Mask. *takes of his mask* It's me, Hiccup! Jack, widening his eyes: Stars above, Hiccup! *rushes towards him* Hiccup: *opening his arms and getting ready for a hug* Jack: *punches him at the shoulder* Hiccup: OW! Jack: Serves you right, have you any idea how I felt when I thought you died?! *hugs Hiccup tightly* Gods, I missed you. Hiccup: *hugging Jack back* Next time, maybe just go for the hug? Jack: What happened to you? Hiccup: It's... A long story. Jack, narrowing his eyes and pinching Hiccup by the ear: Hiccup: Again, ow, ow, ow! Jack: Uh, yeah, I've been grieving for years. It's a long story? I fucking deserve to hear it then.

A growl is then heard, making Jack jerk away and he sees a dragon charging towards him. He screams, and pulls his staff out

Hiccup: No, no, no! *charges at Jack and makes him drop the staff before blocking Toothless' way* It's okay! He's a friend. Jack, staring at them incredulously: Holy moon... Hiccup: You just scared him. Jack: I scared... Wait, him? Hiccup: Uh... Long story? Jack: Ohhh, you are definitely telling me this story.

Jim: What if I don't wanna be chief of Berk? Jack: Does that mean you want to fight your cousin and try to become the chief of Crescentia? Jim: NO! Don't wanna be chief at all! Hiccup: Well, what do you want then? Jim: I dunno... Anything else! Maybe... Fly to the moon! Hiccup: Well, Berk has dragons now. You can do that! Jack: Way to miss the metaphor, Hic.

Jim: Aster! I'm bored! Aster: Okay, I can show you how to throw a boomerang again. Jim: Nah... Let's go exploring! Aster: What did you dad and papa tell you? Jim: Not to leave home. Aster: So, what makes you think I'm going to let you? Jim: Because you once told papa he's not the boss of you anymore. Aster: Aster: I didn't mean it that way, and you know it. Jim: So... You were lying? Aster: Jim: Dad says it's bad to lie.

Dimitri: What the hell are you doing? Jim: Watching my back, duh! Dad told me never to leave it open to an enemy! Dimitri: And I betcha always listen to what daddy says. Jim: Don't you? Dimitri: Don't have any. So, I get to do whatever I want when I want to. Jim, beaming: Really?! Cool! Dimitri, caught off guard with the smile: Huh?

Rasputin: And at the final battle, we take no one alive. They're all to be killed. Ryker: Can we keep the mate of Berk's chief though? Rasputin: What? Ryker: I think he's pretty. Viggo, face palming: Odin's beard, Ryker... They need to be killed to be re-summoned for the undead army. Ryker: But he won't look pretty anymore as an undead. Rasputin: Rasputin: I'm surrounded by idiots...

Jim: Hey, uh, thanks for saving me earlier. Dimitri: Well, anyone can make mistakes. Jim: I'm sorry? Dimitri: I mean, was probably pointless doing so. I saved you, I'm still at the stocks. Talk about gratitude, right? And you're probably going to get in trouble again, which means saving you would be for nothing since I see that you haven't learned how to pick your fights more carefully. Jim: Hey, like I said, I had everything under control. Dimitri: Didn't look like it. You should really work on your hunting skills. Jim: Oh, and I suppose you're such an expert you could show me how it's done? Dimitri: Definitely. It's a date then. Jim: Wait, what? Dimitri: What? Do you or don't you want to become a better fighter? Jim: Uh, I want to... Fight better? Dimitri: All right then, just name the time and place, puppy. Jim: I'm not a pup! I'm a mighty mageborn Viking! Dimitri: Pup it is then.

Httyd 03 AU Plotbunnies (Spoilers! 'Keep reading' at your own preference)

🔵Jack gets dizzy every now and then but he thinks it just the weather or whatever other normal reason. 🟢Hiccup proposes to Jack, they told his parents then Gobber and Aster who proceeded to argue about who gets to walk Jack down the aisle on the wedding day, during which Jack suddenly fainted. 🔵They take Jack to Jamie's adopted mother, who's the village's second best healer. They would go to the first, except he's the one who's the patient. But she couldn't figure out what was wrong with Jack since physically, Jack's vitals seemed strong. 🟢Kozmotis reveals that it's a rare sickness for mages. They rely on mana to create magic, and a maga can produce their own mana. However, if a mage is unable to produce enough mana their magical aura consume their life force. 🔵Jack showed great talent in magic. Part of the reason why he's a good healer, since he uses his magic for that too. Because of the power Jack needs for the magical talent, a lot of mana is needed to compensate it. 🟢Kozmotis says that he has the map to the only cure but even if you get to the coordinates, it seemed like no island is there. 🔵Jack insists they try. Hiccup agrees. 🟢Hiccup doesn't want Jack to come, and Jack fights him on that. 🔵Later, Jack sneaks into the ship used for the voyage. 🟢The cure is Luna, a Light Fury. Instead of fire, she breathes ice. She also produces her own mana energy, and she can share it to any mage. 🔵Crescentia is the Hidden Island that can only be seen during the full moon, and only if there is a Mageborn coming from the outside in search of it. It's coordinates constantly changes, and it's only when a Mageborn uses their magic with the help of a dragon's homing instincts that the island appears.  🟢Nightlight is Jack's brother. 🔵Anastasia is Nightlight's fiancée. 🟢Nightlight is the leader of the mageborns living in the Hidden Island. 🔵Luna is the Guardian protecting the island. It was about to attack them, but when she senses Jack she stopped the preemptive strike and instead kidnaps him and takes him to Nightlight. 🟢Hiccup, of course, is worried sick. Also, enternally exasperated that his fiancé is once again kidnapped. 🔵When Luna brings Jack to his brother, they were making plans for Nightlight's wedding with Anastasia. This made Jack recall a bed time story Aster used to tell him when he was younger about long lost princes. 🟢The Raiders is led by Rasputin, a dark mageborn specializing in Necromancy, summoning the spirit of discord; Eris, with the ill-intent to wipe out all of Jack's people and summon them back from the dead to become his undead army. 🔵Rasputin is Pitch's father. 🟢Tzekal-Kan is a discontent mageborn unsatisfied with being a commoner under Nightlight's rule. He finds Rasputin and betrays the location of where his people are settled. 🔵North, Thiana, and Sanderson are the special warrior units of Nightlight. 🟢When Hiccup and the others find the secret settlement, they encounter the guardian warriors. Before they could engage in combat, Nightlight arrives with Jack and explained the situation to them. 🔵The Maiden warrior festival celebrates the coming of age of young adults. 🟢Nightlight asks Jack to dance there with Hiccup because he missed the opportunity to see his brother come of age but he would very much want to get that chance now. 🔵Before this, Jack helped two year old Jim walk to his mother. 🟢A parent is supposed to be escorting the maiden to the chosen male partner for the dance, so that's what Nightlight does for Jack. 🔵Nightlight also ends Aster and Gobber's continuous feud on who gets to walk Jack down the aisle, since now it was Nightlight's honor. 🟢Roland flirts up a storm with Jack every chance he gets. 🔵Hiccup is so done with it. Jack thought it was amusing at first, but after the twentieth, it started getting annoying. Nightlight continues to find it amusing.

Dialgoues:

Valka, hugging Jack and Hiccup: Congratulations, we're so happy for you two! Stoick: So, when's the wedding? Hiccup: We actually still need to talk about the details for the wedding. Stoick: That's fine then. When are you adopting? Jack: Hiccup: Hiccup: Uh, like I said. We still need... To plan the details for... The wedding first. Stoick: Hurry along then, I'm not getting any younger. You can be married by tomorrow morning and then the day after, looking into adoption... Hiccup: Dad!

Aster: I’M WALKING JACK DOWN THE AISLE! Gobber: Ohhh no… ME! Aster: Are ya off your wits?! He’s my charge! Gobber: He’s my charge too! Aster: I raised him as a baby! Gobber: I raised both of them over the forge! Aster: HOW THE BLOODY HELL DOES THAT TRUMP BABY RAISING?! Gobber: You abandoned him in Berk! Aster: I GAVE HIM A STABLE HOME AT BERK! Constant sea voyage is not good for a child who suffered a trauma from drowning! Plus, it got them to meet so in a way, I got them together! Gobber: Hiccup cured him outta that! If anything, ya were negligent in helping him through that!

Hiccup: 😐 Jack: 😑

Aster: I knew his parents before they passed AND I’m his bloody godfather! Gobber: I taught him everything he knows while ya were absent AND because o’ me, he and Hiccup spent all that time together. I’m their fairy godmother! Aster: You are the ugliest fairy godmother!

Jack: Jack: I think I preferred it when they fought over whose inheritor I was going to be… Hiccup: They sound like a married couple… A divorced married couple. Jack: Maybe we should call the wedding off and elope… Hiccup: I don’t know who would kill me for that; dad or mom.

Dimitri, three years old: But I wanna come too! Astrid: I know you do, but you have to stay here. Dimitri: How come? You said I'm a warrior just like you! Astrid: Yes you are, honey. But this adventure has an age requirement. Jamie: We'll be back before you know it, son. Hiccup: Yeah, and since I'm going with them, and my dad's old, be sure to help him run the island while looking after your grandparents, okay? Dimitri: I can be in charge of the island?! Hiccup, chuckling: Is there any another braver warrior up for the task? Dimitri: Yay! *he hugs his parents* Mama, papa, I'll be the best chief! Jamie: I'm sure you will.

[The ships started to set sail...]

Astrid, chuckling: You know Stoick's going to be pissed when he finds out you called him old. Hiccup, sighing: I'm counting on Dimitri never mentioning that and forgetting it after one nap, actually.

Hiccup: HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET PASS ASTRID?! Astrid: Excuse me, no one gets passed me. I let him come on board. Hiccup: ASTRID! Astrid: It's his life, Hiccup. If he wants to come, let him. Hiccup: going against a chief orders... This should be treason. Jamie, shrugging: Think of it this way, if Jack is close to dying and we only have seconds to get the cure to him, he's right there. Jack: Thanks for making that morbid point.... Hiccup: Seriously Jack! What's with you and stowing away into ships secretly when you're not supposed to? Jack: Uh, I'm thinking that there's something in that ship that's worth protecting to risk it? Jamie and Fishlegs: Aww... Hiccup: No, not 'aww'! It's not a romantic gesture! Astrid, snorting: It kinda is with a line like that.

Hiccup: you should've stayed back at home. Jack: Then I don't see a problem, I'm home whenever I'm with you, Hic. Hiccup: This is serious Jack! Jack: And you think I'm not? I'm not letting you go on this journey without me. It's always been us against everything, Hiccup. Where you go, I go too. Hiccup: I can't lose you, not again... Jack: You're not, and I'm not losing you either. Hiccup: If something goes wrong... Jack: Hey c'mon. We're Hiccup and Jack; anything that goes wrong we make it right at the end.

Jack: Seriously, what's the worst that could happen? Snotlout: Ugh, fucking perfect. Ruffnut: Now that you said that, it's gotta happen now. Tuffnut: Seriously, that's just asking for it.

[A piercing cry is heard before it suddenly got very cold and started snowing, picking up quickly until it's a small-scale blizzard...]

Tuffnut: There, you see?

[After Jack's gets whisked away by the Light Fury...]

Hiccup: Odin's breath, this is why I wanted him to stay at Berk! For once, can there not be the urgency to save my fiancé's ass! Snotlout: Well, maybe if you didn't love it so much... Hiccup: Snotlout, I swear to the fucking Norns, I will sic Toothless on you for the remainder of this mission if you don't shut up now.

Snotlout: Huh, so Jack's sorta a prince then... Guess my comments when we were kids weren't too off the mark. Snotlout: And this is kinda making him... More attractive than I originally thought. Hiccup: Odin's breath, Lout... That's my fiancé you're ogling! Snotlout: Not too late to change that. Jack: But impossible to, so don't hold your breath, Jorgenson. Astrid: Actually, let him. I wanna see what happens. Eret: Seconded.

[After returning home to Berk after the events of the island...]

Stoick: Hey boys, welcome back! Stoick, jokingly: So, is Jack pregnant yet? Hiccup, chuckling nervously: Uh, funny you say that. *Steps aside and reveals Jack carrying one year old Jim.* Stoick: Stoick: Wait, seriously? The island got Jack pregnant? Jack: Uh, that would be a no. Hiccup: But circumstamces.... Complicated... Long story short, well, the baby's attached to Jack now and his parents are gone, so... Stoick, moving to carry Jim and called out: VAL! WE HAVE A GRANDCHILD! Jack: Hiccup: Jack: Told you he'd take it well.

Crescentia (Atlantis AU)

The technology is similar to the types in Treasure Planet.

Crescentia is a mythical place where Hiccup believes an energy crystal lies, that not only powers technology but tames dragons.

It is later discovered the Crescentia is not yet in ruins, but still an island where inhabitants live. It is home to the Mageborns, special beings that can possess magical abilities. Although now, there are only a handful of those still with magical powers. The rest of the Crescentians just has a long lifespan, and they can shapeshift. So, it's either you're a mage or a shifter.

North, Thiana, Aster, and Sanderson are the head guardians tasked to protect the island from invaders.

Nightlight is the ruler of Crescentia, and his brother is Johkul.

Dimitri is a shapeshifter and a trainee to be a guardian. He's Johkul's childhood friend.

Casting:

Hiccup Haddock - Milo Thatch Jack Frost - Princess Kidagakash Jim Hawkins - Audrey Ramirez Dimitri Sudayev - as himself Astrid Hofferson - Helga Sinclar *but unlike Helga, changes her alignment when Jamie and the others does* Jamie Bennette - Joshua Sweet Tuffnut Thorston - Vinny Santorini Ruffnut Thorston - as herself *replacing the role of Wilhelmina Packard, but isn't on PA duty* Fishlegs - as himself *replacing the role of Cookie, but he's a better cook.* Snotlout - as himself *replacing the role of Mole, but he's the weaponry specialist of the group* Drago - Lyle Rourke Nightlight - as himself *replaces the role of the old king*

Dialogue ideas (will update more later):

Hiccup: No, no. I'm fine, I got it... Eep! *trips over and knives spill out of the crate he was carrying* Astrid, rolling her eyes before walking away: Jim, coming over to clean up the mess and help Hiccup up: Jeez, I used to fend off bullies protecting guys like you. Jim: Also, she's already a thing with the medic. Might want to ease up with the flirting. Hiccup: Really? But that other guy was flirting with her, too. So, I thought... JIm: That's Snotlout. Pro-tip: Never follow his lead on absolutely anything... Unless your intention is to get punched in the face, then by all means, it's your funeral.

Snotlout: Don't worry guys, I got this. Charming people is my thing. Jim: Since fucking when? Snotlout: If I may *beckons Jack closer* Jack, in amused curiosity, agrees to lean closer. He gets kissed, and he punched Snotlout as a response. Dimitri follows up on that and hits Snotlout's gut once with the non-pointy end of his spear... Jim, applauding: Woo! That went better than I expected. Astrid: 'bout time somebody did it. I'm just sorry it wasn't me. Jamie: I'm surprised it wasn't you, too.

Hiccup: Oh yeah, we haven't been properly introduced. I'm Hiccup. Jack: My name is Johkul Frosti. Hiccup: Yo... Yoko.... Do you have a nickname? Jack, chuckling: Jack will do.

Jack: That is Toothless, a Night Fury and the alpha of the dragons in this area. Jack: He'd have to be, since they are only a handful of Furies and the white one, the Light Fury, is his mate. The rest of the little Furies are his young ones. Hiccup: Are there more dragons? Jack: Of course, but it might take too long to show you... Hey Hiccup, before you have to leave tomorrow, I need your help with something.

Dimitri: So, what do you call this? Jim: That is a gun, and give it back. You could hurt yourself with that. Dimitri: How could such a tiny thing do... *Accidentally pulls the trigger and the laser shot grazes his hand a bit* ouch! Jim: I hate to say I told you so... No, no I actually don't. *Sees the wound heal itself* Okay, that is cool.

HiJack AU - How to Train Your Dragon Plotbunnies

Once Hiccup starts his flight suit projects, Jack and Hiccup would make bets.

Whenever Jack wins, he would ground Hiccup, literally, from testing the flight suits for a week.

When Hiccup wins, Jack gives him a massage for an hour.

Jack gives the best massages.

When Jack found out that jealousy was the real reason Hiccup had been overly wary of Jamie the first time they met him, he didn't let him live it down for months.

Mostly because Jack had to put up suppressing his jealousy towards Astrid even longer.

Jack and Jamie are partners in pranking their friends.

Actually, this just means that Jack drags Jamie around with him often if Hiccup is busy with his inventions.

When Astrid has Jamie occupied, Jack tends the flock and/or babysit the town's children.

Httyd 2 specific plotbunnies

While Berk was holding the dragon race, Jack and Hiccup had stowed away together on Toothless, mapping out new islands they discover. This became a new hobby of Hiccup whenever he wanted to escape any talks of his 'future.'

Before Stoick actually tells Hiccup he wanted to make him chief already, it's been a constant cause for anxiety for Hiccup whenever the thought comes up.

Fortunately, Jack always knew the best time to joke around and keep Hiccup's mind off it, and he knew when it was better to help Hiccup confront and come to terms with it.

Jack maneuvers Toothless the best he could whenever Hiccup decides to jumps off to test his flight suit. Still, there's little he can do, especially since one foothold to help maneuver Toothless can only fit Hiccup's prosthetic.

Eret works for Drago, but when he's not on the job, he's out trying to find clues about his family who he got separated from after a dragon attack on their hometown.

Jamie is his brother, and Eret discovers this because of the pendant he always wears. This is what helped Eret switch sides earlier.

When Hiccup escapes Eret's boat while his father was giving him a scolding, Jack got to escape with him because Jack stayed on Toothless during their argument.

Valka was evidently surprise about Hiccup's choice of partner being a guy too, but she didn't oppose it.

Httyd AU Plotbunnies

Gobber prepared a special dragon racing event wherein participants are required to pair up.

The mechanics were that they would fly around and circumvent the entire island with long pole markers Gobber set up, and Aster helped him a week ago, in exchange for a favor of assisting some repairs in his ship and hut.

Each markers indicate a checkpoint, and the partner player dismounts to find a cloth which was dyed according to the pair's assigned color. They can't move on to the next marker without the cloth. After obtaining it, the partner wears it either around their head, shoulder, or neck.

Each marker has notes pinned on the pole for hints on where the cloth can be found.

First pair to make it back to the starting point with all colored cloths wins.

Additionally, anyone can attempt to steal from another pair but only when the one they're stealing from are wearing them.

Hiccup and Jack pair up. Obviously, Jack's the one who would be finding the cloth since he's not usually the rider of Toothless.

Astrid and Jamie pair up. Jamie has the job of finding the cloth.

Ruffnut and Tuffnut pair up. Somehow, they managed to come to an agreement to take turns on who does the finding.

Snotlout and Fishlegs pair up. And... Well...

Image context:

Astrid, Jamie, Hiccup, and Jack are staring at Snotlout and Fishlegs arguing about which dragon to use, between Hookfang and Meatlug, and who plays the role of "partner" that find and obtain the cloth.

Finally, they settle it with a wrestling match.

Astrid - Not surprised. Already figuring they'll have to sit it out because of injuries they'll likely sustain.

Jamie - A little amused and trying not to smile, lest Snotlout redirects his irritation to him. He's already on thin ice with the guy for "stealing Astrid from him."

Jack - Grimacing and wondering whether it was better now or later to treat injuries. Odds are, if they managed to make up their mind and join the race, more injuries would be coming up still.

Hiccup - Confused as to why the two hadn't figured out which dragon to use yet. The event has been announced one month in advance for the benefits of the players to figure out a strategy to win.

At the side, the twins are making a bet on who wins.

Httyd AU exchanges #000

Ruffnut: So, are you two single again yet? Jack and Hiccup:

Ruffnut: Damn it. Why do the good guys have to be taken? And by each other, too! Snotlout: More like it figures that losers like these can't get a girl, so they settle for each other. Jack: We're still a boyfriend to someone, and that's a number higher than you've ever been... More like never, though. Hiccup: Way higher than one, when counting brain cells. Astrid: They're more competent sparring buddies, too. Snotlout: Snotlout: I still say they're losers. Tuffnut: You lost against Jack earlier during dragon training... Jack didn't even need a dragon. Snotlout: He cheated with grass! Hiccup obviously rigged it to let lover boy win. Fishlegs: That was the point of the exercise, Snotlout. Supporting the dragon when it gets knocked out till it regains his senses. Jack: At least two of us can get dates, so that's a point we have higher than you enough. Hiccup: And more than one, when counting brain cells. Snotlout: They cheated!

How to Train Your Dragon 2 Plotbunnies

When Jack and Hiccup went off on their own, they encountered they encountered the hoard of dragons without the masked figure. In that encounter, it was a bit rough and Jack got knocked unconscious when a large dragon tail smacked him to the walls. That was when Hiccup pulled out his fire sword to keep them away from Jack.

The masked figured finally showed up at that moment.

Jack regained consciousness half an hour later. Hiccup was glad he was okay, and excited to introduce him to his mother. Jack thought he was dreaming up until the point Toothless pounced on him, showing his own relief that he was fine by licking him.

Jack doesn’t like to grow his hair too long, even with it being the preferred style for Vikings and Berkians. However, he does grow it a bit just so Hiccup has something to pull when they do bed room things.

When it comes to the relationship between Jack and Hiccup, (Officially making it Aster now because I just love him and Jack’s relationship) it’s surprisingly Stoick who plays good cop while Aster goes bad cop.

Aster is actually super protective of Jack, even as he tries not to be obvious about it.

Hiccup and Jack take turns (if you know, you know)

Jamie lives in Berk and is seen with Jack when Jack isn’t with Hiccup. If Hiccup didn’t know he was courting Astrid, he would still be extremely wary when Jack and Jamie are having a good time together.

As it is, he is only slightly wary.

Jack still majors as a medic on the battlefield, but he makes sure to keep up with enough combat techniques to back up a reckless Hiccup. Even with Toothless, they’re not foolproof.

Especially not with Hiccup’s experiments on flight suits.

Toothless and Jack are so done with Hiccup’s clumsy falls with his flight suits.

Jack finally gets over his aquaphobia when he had to dive down partially frozen river to rescue Hiccup.

Valka and Jack get along swimmingly. Jack helps her relearn how to cook.

Aster and Gobber often make bets with each other on who the winners will be in dragon races or other such competitions. Their choices are usually between Hiccup or Astrid. If on the off chance that neither of the two wins, they check who wins the bet according to the next best placement between the two.

Hiccup and Jack enjoy their time with Valka and the many dragons.

Hiccup and Valka bonded over the dragons.

Jack and Valka bonded over cooking, in Valka's case re-learning the basics.

Jamie finds out that Eret is his brother, but he doesn't like the circumstances of their reunion. He needed Eret to prove he wasn't just using this to betray them later on.

Dialgoue/Interactions

[Astrid and Stormfly fly toward them. Astrid stands on Stormfly's back, keeping her balance.]

Jamie: Get 'em, Astrid!

Tuffnut: It's MY glory!

Ruffnut: Always ruining EVERYTHING!

Tuffnut: NO SHEEP, NO GLORY!

[Astrid leaps off of Stormfly, runs up Belch's spindly neck, and plucks the Black Sheep from the Twins' hands.]

Astrid: Gotcha! Ha-ha!

[She tumbles through the air onto Stormfly, sticking a perfect landing, the Black Sheep in hand.]

Tuffnut: Whoa!

Ruffnut: Astrid!

Stoick: Well played! Ha, ha, ha!

Jamie: (To the crowd) That's my girl!

Fishlegs: Whoo-hoo!

[Back to Astrid on Stormfly, eyeing the fast-approaching finish line, unaware as Fishlegs suddenly rams Meatlug into Stormfly, sending Astrid off-course. She recovers and sees Snotlout flying headlong toward her, war hammer cocked, aiming at Astrid.]

Snotlout: Uh, excuse me!

Astrid: Stormfly!

[Snotlout hurls his hammer. Astrid ducks and rolls Stormfly out of the way. The hammer catches Fishlegs in the face with a CLANG. The crowd collectively winces.]

Crowd: Oh!

[Astrid and Stormfly recover from their roll, loop over the water, and they blast past the finish line, dunking the Black Sheep into their basket! ASTRID WINS!]

Stoick: That's thirteen! Astrid takes the game!

❄️🐉

[Hiccup and Jack goes off flying while the race transpired. After another bad landing from Hiccup testing his flight suit, they settle down in an island they've never been to before.]

Hiccup: So what should we name it?

[Toothless chews at his armpit]

Hiccup: "Itchy Armpit" it is. 

Jack: You should work on your naming skills, Hic.

[Jack gives Hiccup a moment to finish including the addition of the new island they discovered on his journal before diverting the topic elsewhere.]

Jack: So, quick question to interrupt your mapping. *he says this while casually twirling his staff* I love flying with you and Toothless and all.

Jack: But any reason in particular you dragged me from Aster’s Trading post to go all the way out here?

Jack: Instead of, I don’t know… The race you’ve been preparing for weeks now?

Jack: I’m open with options that doesn’t involve clothes.

Hiccup: *Rolls his eyes as he answers curtly* Avoiding dad.

Jack: *In deadpan* Oh no. Pretending now I wasn't there during the conversation, tell me about it.

[Hiccup proceeds to explain things and gestures wildly as he rants. Jack doesn’t interrupt or anything, but he does mirror Hiccup’s actions playfully while his mouth mimes the words his boyfriend speaks. Hiccup finally notices at one point and tugs Jack down on his lap.]

Jack: I like where this is going...

Hiccup: Could you— *he tries not to smile but come on this is Jack we’re talking about. Finally, he clears his throat* Jackson Overland, this is serious.

Jack: Okay, okay. I’ll behave.

[Hiccup finally continues. And gets to the part of Stoick wanting to make Hiccup chief soon.]

Jack: Sounds about right.

Jack: He’s the chief. You’re his son, the next in line.

Jack: What, did you except that you’d take over Gobber’s blacksmithing business?

Hiccup: That's— Well, I kinda hoped…

Jack: Hiccup…

Hiccup: It’s just… I’m not ready.

Hiccup: And I know we had this talk before too, yeah, “Oooh~ I rather be Jackson Overland, the next chief’s sweetheart” and not just meh~ “Jackson Overland, the Blacksmith’s sweetheart”.

Jack: *snorting and hitting him lightly on the head with the safe end of his staff* A flattering impression, Hic.

Hiccup: But... I'm scared I might mess it up.

Jack: And that’s okay.

Hiccup: Last I checked, it's not really 'okay' to mess up.

Jack: Which has never stopped us before, if you don't recall. The whole feud with dragons and you Vikings ended because of our "messing tradition up" and that worked out well enough. In the end, we manage to make it work.

Jack: Kidding aside, You’ll get to that point where you'll accept the role wholeheartedly, and you'll know just what to do when you're made chief. You have it in you, Hic.

Hiccup: How could you know that?

Jack: Well, you have your dad's stubborness, for one thing.

Jack: And also, it's because I believe in you.

[Hiccup smiles softly and starts to lean in for a kiss. Then a strange explosion erupted somewhere farther North of them. A strange explosion… of Ice.]

❄️🐉

[Hiccup and Jack go in close to inspect the area where they saw the ice explosion]

Hiccup: It's... Ice?

Jack: *steadily stands up as Toothless hovers near the tall spiky icicles, and reached out to touch it* Definitely is, brr. *shakes the cold from his hands* But it doesn't seem like a naturally former glacier.

Hiccup: Yeah, I wonder what caused it...

[Suddenly, a blast was heard and Toothless dodges before Jack and Hiccup realizes a net was headed towards them. Jack loses balance and starts to fall...]

Jack: Hiccup!

[Toothless dives to rescue Jack, and the moment of relief Hiccup felt at the success of the dragon doing so was gone when he spots three cages filled with dragons and immediately maneuvers Toothless towards them.]

Hiccup: Oookay... This is a problem.

Jack: Less talking, more moving. *Moves to start picking on the locks* let's hurry before the ones who did this shows up...

[Suddenly, a voice yells from a distance...]

Eret: Stop right there!

Jack: and says something as cliché as that...

❄️🐉

[As the rest of his crew yells complains and curses to Hiccup, Jack, Astrid, and Jamie's departure, Eret picks up the pendant Jamie unknowingly left behind...]

Eret: This is... *His eyes widened as he looks towards the fleeing group* Jamie?

❄️🐉

[Hiccup and Jack arrive on their Toothless.]

Stoick: Haha! There he is! *To Gobber, proving his point* Huh? The pride of Berk!

Aster: And his beau, in which both decided to finally show up for work. *Shoves Jack a crate he needs brought to his stall*

Gobber: Yay. *waves his prosthetic hand with sarcastic enthusiasm.* 

Hiccup: Sorry. Got held up.

Jack: *Shrugging* Yeah, and you know the rules, I am where he's at.

Aster: Not a rule if it's self made, showpony.

Jack: My next rule is that it is.

❄️🐉

[Hiccup just introduces his mother to Jack. Jack observes the large dragon utopia beheld in front of him and the woman standing beside Hiccup said to be his boyfriend's dead mother. ]

Jack: Am I dead or dreaming?

[Toothless excitedly pounces and licks Jack after seeing him awake from his previous unconscious state]

Hiccup: So, what's the verdict?

Jack: Decidedly not dead or dreaming, but in desperate need of a bath now.

Hiccup: You know that it doesn't really wash out completely even then.

Jack: Hope springs eternal.

Jack: Toothless. Down boy. *expression is an odd mixture of a grimace and amusement* I'm okay, you're still getting more grilled Icelandic cod from me in the future, relax.

❄️🐉

[Astrid and Jamie along with the others abduct Eret to question him about the possible whereabouts of Jack and Hiccup. Before that though, Jamie saw Eret wearing his pendant...]

Jamie: Hey, that's mine!

Eret: So it's true. It really is yours.

Jamie: Yes, it's mine and you better give me it back or... *Jamie is interrupted by a hug from Eret* Uh, what?

Astrid: Okay, what's happening here?

Ruffnut: Beats me, but Jamie, can we switch?

Jamie: *Pushes Eret away* Okay, let's have some boundaries here now. What's that for? And I said give me that back. *He snatches the pendant from Eret's neck*

Eret: Jamie, don't you remember? It's me; I'm your brother!

Jamie:

Jamie: Again...

Everyone: What?!

❄️🐉

[Valka goes into the closest thing she has for a kitchen and sees Jack preparing food...]

Jack: Ah, sorry for using it without permission. It's a bit passed lunch, so I decided to start on it. Much as I like the dragons, you could say it's not on the same level as Hiccup, or yourself.

Jack: I do enjoy listening to him talk about it, though.

Valka: Oh, no. It's fine. By the looks of it, you're managing better than me. I lost a little of the... home-cooking touch, after all this years.

Valka: So, you're dating my son.

Jack: I... Yes. *blushing* I hope that isn't a problem for you, madam.

Valka: Not at all. Considering all this time, it's more suitable for you to be someone special to him, compared to calling myself his mother.

Jack:

Jack: Running the risk of over stepping, I don't think you should worry about that too much. If I'm being honest, seeing you two interact in the last couple hours, it seems like there's more you in him than the chief.

Jack: Though, the stubbornness, he definitely got from Stoick... Er, just don't tell him I said that.

Valka: *chuckles* I don't think I could even if I wanted to.

Jack: Right... Sorry.

Valka: Now allow me to run the risk of over stepping... I'm curious, as his mother of course... What do you like the most about Hiccup?

Jack: Oh, that's... Well... *makes vague gestures with his hands* He's funny, and I like fun, so that's one. But I wouldn't say it's the most... He's also caring, obviously different from the others but in a good way just... It's just all of him. He's not really Hic with all his good parts.

Valka: *chuckling* good answer. Here, maybe you can show me how you're making that.

[The two continues to work on the food. After a while, they hear Hiccup scream for a moment before it sounded muffled. The two shared a look, before rushing out, Jack grabbing his staff on his way out, only to see that Stoick and Gobber have arrived.]

Mirabel: Oh, sorry!

Isabela: What is your problem?

[Camilo sees Mirabel rush after Luisa. He felt that she was acting strange today, and he remembered all the things she was rambling on when she assumed he was Dolores.

Camilo also believed Mirabel would never interrupt the fun vibes during Antonio's night unless something was truly urgent.

Camilo looked at his plate, and sighed. He grab a few Arepas, before rushing after his cousin. He shapeshifted into a taller to easily catch up with his younger cousin.]

Camilo: Yo Mira, where's the fire?

Camilo: You should probably tell mami so she knows she should make herself a little sad.

[Camilo made a face at that. He didn't really like how his mother had to be sad to help people at times, but it was something that went on for as long as he could remember.]

Mirabel: Not now, primo. I need to catch up with Luisa.

Camilo: Okay.

Mirabel:

Camilo:

Mirabel: Wait, you're coming?

Camilo: I'm here, aren't I?

Camilo: Not sure if the magic is actually breaking, but if it is, I'm going to help you make sure it doesn't happen.

Mirabel: 🙂

Camilo: And between you and me, it sounds more fun than having a baby puke on you.

...Where Camilo is a main supporting character to Mirabel

Camilo was actually intrigued when Mirabel brought up the magic being in danger when Mirabel initially thought he was Dolores.

When Mirabel left quickly, Camilo grabbed whatever Arepas he could and followed her.

After all, his main chore was mostly to check and see if any of the townsfolk needed help and he could do it. His cousin counted as being part of the town and someone needing help.

Hearing about Luisa's stress when it came to using her gift to help others has Camilo thinking of his own gift.

Camilo realized he never noticed the pressure on her or himself, but he found that it was taxing sometimes to be someone else just to help others.

Of course, Camilo would have his own song number. (Listen to Camilo's interlude in YouTube, it's nice.)

He still does the same number in the "We don't talk about Bruno" song.

Grim reaper!Sangwoo AU?

Like, what if Sangwoo is some kind of grim reaper meant to reap Ali's soul but then something happened where Ali didn't die when he's supposed to and Sangwoo can't leave the human realm without reaping his soul.

Contrary to popular belief, grim reapers don't kill. They guide souls to the after life.

Sangwoo can't leave unless he reaps Ali's soul. But now he doesn't even know when Ali is supposed to die since the plan didn't go according to schedule

Now he has to stay in this world with Ali until the time comes.

And of course they fall in love.

And now Sangwoo doesn't have the heart to reap his soul.

He can't even imagine like he forgot how to do his job

Then one day, he finds out during one incident, Sangwoo gets injured and bleeds. They're both confused.

Then Sangwoo gets summoned back to his realm temporarily and now he has to make a decision, to reap Ali's soul or he can sacrifice his immortality to live as a human with Ali and they both wait for mortal death and a future grim reaper to reap their souls.

Anyways, for added angst, when Sangwoo gets back to Ali, months have passed and Ali is engaged to someone else and he and Sangwoo basically runs out of his wedding.

Of course I would never write the angst if I did this hahaha 🤣😂🤣hurt and comfort is the best I can do for angst. Oh and insecurity

The epilogue? Ali and Sangwoo dies.

Plot twist (which not so plot twist anymore if you think Bout it lol) they become grim reapers too

Gihun works at another department. He's cupid. Or one of the cupid's

Junho works as a guardian angel

I'm not immortalizing Sali without those two being immortals with them too Gihun: don't kill them yet! I still haven't found their match!

Sangwoo: FFS

Junho: Don't kill them

Sangwoo: Screw you two making my job harder

Ali sucks at being a grim reaper so they later transfer him to dream catcher. Basically, he wards off nightmares and beats them up.

Inho could be in charge

"If you were gonna give me my job back why give me the impression that my death was final?" "For the laughs. Also, it's good for employees to get a taste of their own medicine sometimes" "The fuck how are you an angel of justice and equality?" "How are you an angel of death, aka grim reaper, if you're immortal and hence, never need to die?" "..."

Spending time with Toothless

Idle time with Toothless

As per canon, Toothless does have a stronger bond to Hiccup more than anyone else.

Though, he likes Jack too because of how he cooks fishes more often than not before giving it to them, and at least one along with the raw fishes if he's too busy to cook a lot.

Once Hiccup starts getting into making flying machines, both Jack and Toothless share the sentiment of being "so done" with it.

Toothless ships HiJack. Before Hiccup realized having feelings for Jack, he keeps messing with the two and gets them into awkward situations.

Jack and Toothless share the interest of watching Hiccup when he doodles; Jack in fondness, Toothless in bemusement.

💙And love just took me by surprise💚

💚looking through your eyes💙

Jack and Hiccup in one of their dates, while Astrid and Jamie dragonsits Toothless.

This is also the date where Hiccup proposes to Jack after.

💚💙💙💚

Hiccup: See something you like?

Jack: Nah. Just wondering how the awkward, scrawny, younger kid I used to know grew into such a cheeky bastard.

Hiccup: Hmm, you liked me first though.

Jack: Yeah, what was I thinking?

Hiccup: Well, maybe you could be thinking of saying yes to changing your last name. It sucks.

Jack: Excuse me?!

Hiccup: Yeah, Jackson Haddock sounds more suitable. *shows the ring*

Jack.exe stopped working.

Hiccup: Jack?

Jack: You really are a cheeky bastard.

Jack takes the ring and places it safely aside before lunging towards Hiccup and bringing their lips together.

Jack: What were you expecting, Gobber promoting you from apprentice status to official blacksmith? Gotta say, that's a step down from 'chief of Berk'

Jack: Plus, "Jackson Overland, the next chief's sweetheart" has a better ring to it than "Jackson Overland, the Blacksmith's sweetheart"

Jack: Of course, either way, win-win as long as I keep the sweetheart title but you get the idea.

HiJack AU - Rise of the Guardians Plotbunnies

(Context: Before Hiccup returns to HQ when the Guardian signal came up, he was spending time with Jack, as per usual. When the signal came up, he had to go. Jack looked disappointed, because Hiccup had just arrived a bare ten minutes ago. It was the quickest the Aide of Hope had to leave. Hiccup was in a rush to leave, since it was the first time in a long time that the urgent signal was put up to assemble all guardians at the same time, the last time was to report about what had happened to Kozmotis. In his rush, he wasn't thinking, and accidentally kissed Jack on the cheek in a parting kiss.

They were both shock.

Before Jack could collect himself to make a respond, Hiccup dashed off, all the while thinking "Shit shit shit shit shit what did I just DO?!)

More details added to the Answer (an ask from @hamish-fanfic-fangirl )already mentioned here

The Guardians love children, as they are the Guardians of Childhood. They can't, however, have children. With the exception of Kozmotis and Anastasia's relationship, as they were created together at the same time by Manny.

Manny formed Pitch to safeguard chaos energy that would strike fears in children and leave them traumatize, impeding a healthy and happy development of growing up. Anastasia was formed at the same time, because children, and to an extent people, need to live in a harmonize environment, right?

The Guardians do consider themselves, as what humans coined nowadays, as 'Found family.' Addition to that, they think if they could have kids, they would be like and be treated like their aides.

They joke about it sometimes; North fits the role of a dad, as leader of the Guardians, Thiana being like the mother, with Aster, Sandy, and Kozmotis like uncles. Sandy's the "cool" uncle with a lot of stories to tell (or show). Kozmotis is the "chill" uncle who leaves you be but offers sage wisdom whether or not you ask for them. Aster is the one who nags a lot, sometimes more than the parents but is exciting to spend time with because of all his cool tricks.

Jamie and Astrid found it awkward, but Thiana was being playful and pretending to be like a parent and giving Jamie 'the shovel talk', when Astrid and Jamie got together, as she heard a story told to her by North, from Jim.

She was sweet about it though, going on about how they should be caring of each other and how lovely it all was so Jim made a remark later that he didn't think the guardian of memories got the point of a 'Shovel talk'

Even to the aides that aren't their own, the Guardians do feel rather paternal/maternal towards them.

Dialogue

North: Sandy, thank you for coming.

Sandy descends from the plane and floats to the ground. He joins North, Bunny and Tooth as they walk through the Globe Room. Sand glyphs appear above Sandy's head communicating

Jamie: He says that he is busy and has a lot of work to do.

North: I understand, you work ‘round the clock, da, But I obviously wouldn't have called you all here unless it was serious.

North, Bunny, Tooth and Sandy reach the center of the room. Tooth does her best to shush her mini-fairies.

North: Kozmotis as the Boogeyman was here at the Pole. *points to the globe. The everyone turns to look.*

Astrid: *shocked* Sir Kozmotis? Here? After all this time...

Jamie: Jim, did you really see...

Jim: Well, I didn't but sir North had. I think, I... Wait. *frowning as he looked around in concern* Where's Dimitri?

Tooth: But... Pitch Black? Was it really him?

North: Yes! There was black sand covering the globe.

Aster: What, what...what do you mean black sand?

North: And then a shadow!                                                

Aster: Hold on, hold on, I thought you said you saw Pitch.

North: Well, ah, not exactly...

Aster: Not exactly? Can you believe this guy?

Bunny turns to Sandy, who shrugs while forming a Dreamsand question mark above his head....

Aster: Yeah, you said it, Sandy.

Bunny goes back to painting one of his Easter eggs.

North: Look, he is up to something very bad. *gropes his gut* I feel it, in my belly.

Aster: *eyes narrow* Hang on, hang on, you mean to say, you summoned me here THREE DAYS BEFORE EASTER - because of your? Mate, if I did this to you three days before Christmas-

Tooth (to her fairies): Argentina. Priority alert! A batch of bicuspids in Buenos Aires.  Weather advisory, Astrid?

Astrid: *Pauses* Fair, all of them. Snowstorm warning in Moscow.

Jamie: Maybe that's where Jack is now.

Jim: And maybe Hic too; would explain why he's running late... Now Dimitri...           

North grabs Bunny's painted egg, casually juggling it in his          hand as he walks off. Meanwhile Sandy, who is being served          eggnog by a yeti, suddenly notices something high above.         

North: Please. Bunny. Easter is not Christmas.

Aster: *sarcastic laugh* Here we go... North, I, I don't have time for           this. I've still got two million eggs to finish up.

The moon rises into view, high up in the ceiling; its rays of light begin to shine brightly through as they cascade down the walls of the globe room.

North: No matter how much you paint, is still egg!

Sandy points to the moon unsuccessfully to get the others' attention. Even Jamie is distracted with Jim and Astrid, talking about whether one of them (Jim) should go and get Dimitri. Their guardians are distracted and they didn't want to interrupt them...

Aster: Look, mate, I'm dealing with perishables. Right. You've got all year to prepare.                                                

Tooth (to her fairies): Pittsburg, boy eight, two molars. Saltwater taffy.

Sandy puts his fingers in his mouth to whistle, a silent musical note forming above his head.                                                

North (to Aster): Why are rabbits always so nervous.

Aster: And why are you always such a blowhard!                                  

Tooth (to her fairies): Ontario, sector nine: five canines, two molars, and fourteen incisors. Is that all in one house?

Sandy waves a sand flag above his head, pointing and jumping and down as the moonlight continues to fill the room.

North: Tooth! Can't you see we're trying to argue.

Tooth: *Good naturedly* Sorry, not all of us get to work one night a year. Am I right, Sandy?

Sandy tries to signal with a golden arrow, pointing toward the ceiling, but to no avail as the others continue their bickering. Sandy thinks Tooth has noticed for a split second, but then-    

Tooth (to her fairies): San Diego, sector two! Five incisors, a bicuspid and a really loose molar on stand-by.

North: I know it was him. We have serious situation!

Aster: Well, I've got a serious situation with some eggs.

Tooth: Hey, I hate to interrupt the, "We work so hard once a year club" but could we concentrate on the matter-

A silhouette comes out from a black spot of a shadow in the middle of the room, and Dimitri comes up and stumbles out from it. The aide of the former Guardian of Chaos seemed recovering from injuries. Even with his quick healing, it's taking some time...

Jim: Dimitri!

Jim rushes to help support him...

Tooth: Oh dear!

Astrid: Is he okay?

Dimitri: Sorry... The darkness is more restless than ever for some reasons. I had to defeat about a dozen minions before securing and leaving the base.

Jim: Wha- so if Pitch is really back, why hadn't he showed up here yet?

North: He did lad!

Jim: All due respect sir, you said it was a shadow.

North: Shadows are his thing!

Dimitri: I don't think that was Pitch yet, but a harbinger, maybe? If he had awoken, I think I would be the first to know.

Aster: Hah!

Sandy can't take it anymore, grabs an elf by his hat, and vigorously shakes it's bell. The other Guardians are finally silenced and all turn to look at Sandy, who points up, a sand crescent moon forming above his head. The dizzy elf staggers away. Finally the others turn to see the shaft of moonlight as it concentrates on the circle between them as Manny starts beaming down into the room...

North: Aah! Man in Moon! Sandy, why didn't you say something?

Sandy gives him a deadpan stare, Dream sand smoke shoots out his ears.                                                

North (to Man in Moon as he finally appears, with Anastasia by his side) : It's been a long time old friend! Madam Mother Nature *bows curtly*

Manny: Likewise.

Anastasia: A pleasure as always, North.

North: So... What is big news?

Manny: Before I get that, there is one thing I need to address first...

Everyone looks to the center of the room where Manny manipulates moonlight to shine down intensely, the light ebbs away, leaving a dark spot ---- which resolves into the shadowed silhouette of Pitch. The Guardians look on, stunned.                                                

Aster: It is Pitch.                                  

North pats his belly and gives Bunny a look...

North: Manny... what must we do?

Manny: The matter I mentioned needing to be addressed...

The shadow of Pitch disappears and the circle of moonlight intensifies and shrinks, concentrating further luminating an ornate symbol on the floor, at the center of their circle. The symbol rises out of the ground revealing a large gem at the head of a pillar.                                                

Tooth: Ah, guys, you know what this means?

The moons light suddenly refracts through the gem casting          light all over the chamber.                                                

North: He's choosing an aide for himself.

Aster: What?! You never needed one before, why now?

North: Must be big deal! Manny thinks we all need help!

Aster: We have our help. *Gestures to all aides present* Now if my own would show up too...                                               

Tooth: I wonder who it's gonna be?

Then a bright flash, a rush of wind- and a FIGURE resolves over the central pillar: slight, hooded, bearing a familiar  hooked staff.                                                

North:

North: Jack Frost.

The Mini-Teeth all sigh and swoon as the Guardians stand there, stunned.                                                

Jim: Well then, at least Hiccup's going to be happy

Astrid: *Shrugs, and idly shifts her axe from one hand to another* Well, as long as he does his part in caring for the children…

Tooth: And Hiccup’s going to be motivated more than ever now too.

Aster: Jack Frost!? He doesn't care about children! All he does is freeze water pipes and mess with my egg hunts. Right? He's an irresponsible, selfish...                                                

Manny: Aide.                            

Aster: I can tell you that Jack Frost is a lot of things, but he's--

Hiccup finally flies in with Toothless

Hiccup: I'm sorry I'm late! *He jumps down from Toothless* Snow storm in Moscow delayed me... Er, among other things...

Everyone looks at him

North: Perfect timing Hiccup! We need you to find Jack and bring him here.

Hiccup, remembering his final moments with Jack before leaving, looked mortified...
