Hiccup x Reader (Race To The Edge)

A Fighting Chance (Eps: Edge of Disaster pt. 1+2)

"I know why we built it, Arrow."

"I just don't understand how this isn't making you completely insane!"

"Because then there'd be two crazy people in this conversation and we probably wouldn't resolve anything. Plus, I'm more concerned about our main problem right now." He seemed to not even hear the last part.

"Are you saying I'm-!?" I cut him off.

"Arrow, let me talk to the twins. I'll get their side of the story, then we can figure out what we need to do."

"I guess it's a start." As if we said their names too many times, they showed up right on cue. "Well, if it isn't our crack security team now."

"Oh! Please, please, there's no need to shower us with accolades." Tuff replied. 

"Tuff, you left two dummies to protect this entire base. What were you thinking?" As Arrow was yelling at them, a Terror mail came.

"Terror Mail? Hm..."

"Dummies, you say?" Tuff asked.

"He does. Poor confused thing."

"What you failed to realize in your foggy morning state, is that those are not dummies. They are scare ships."

"Scareships? You're serious?"

"You didn't see any ships near the island, did you? I think not. And why? They were appropriately scared away. By the appropriately named scare ships." Tuff explained.

"Are you following any of this?" Arrow asked me.

"Not super closely. I'm actually reading this. It's from Johann. He's in trouble." I explained. I didn't want to leave the Edge. I wanted to be around at the very least in case anything happened with (Y/n), but from what the letter said...I didn't have a choice.

*Later*

"You are not leaving me with these two muttonheads." Arrow kept protesting.

"He knows we're standing right here, right?" Tuff asked.

"Look, Johann is surrounded by Dragon Hunters, and his ship is taking on water. We have to get out there and help him." I told him...again. 

"Then, let me saddle up Stormfly, I'll be there in-"

"Arrow, you need to stay here and hold down the Edge. And make sure nothing happens to the Dragon Eye." I insisted. 

"I can't believe what's happening. This actually may be the worst day in history."

"Arrow, Snotlout and I have the only working dragon armor, and Meatlug is immune to the Dragon Hunters' arrows," I told him.

"You hear that, girl? Who's a special dragon? Meatlug is, that's who." Fishlegs said. I pushed it aside.

"It just makes sense for us to be the ones to go." I finished.

"Hiccup, please! For all that is sacred in Thor's world, you cannot leave me alone with these two-"

"What do you say? Simpletons? Blockheads?" Tuff cut in.

"I was always partial to dimwit myself. It rolls trippingly off the tongue." Ruff added.

"Oh, yeah. Watch this. What wit dim, would the twins' dim wit if dim wits could wit dim? Say that five times fast." He turned back to me.

"You see what I'm talking about, right?"

"Hey, it's not like we woke up this morning hoping to spend 24/7 with you either, Arrow. I mean, you are not exactly a picnic. And I think you know what I'm saying. You have not ever been a blanket on a grassy knoll with delicious food. But, we are team players. We will do what is necessary for the good of the group. Hence, we shall remain behind and enjoy your good company, my fair Arrow. Even if you have no blankets or grassy knolls to offer." Tuff said. At least SOMEBODY isn't complaining.
