Something Rotten On Berserker Island

What's your favourite RTTE episode? One of mine has to be Something Rotten On Berseker Island. Idk why, but i saw a lot of hidden Hiccstrid :D   Hiccup and Astrid walked beside each other and look at each other and they buddied up with each other with a smile and i was like HWIEHWIFODPOJWQOQNOIX and they sat next to each other and when Hiccup nudged Astrid i was like huehuehuehuehuehuehe 

So i decided to re-write the scenes of Gustav touring the Berserker island and Savage's ambush, y'know, for more of dat Hiccstrid and sum protective Hiccup hehehehrhehfwhj

"Whaddaya say you load these guys on a tour of my domain?" Dagur requested as he slung a heavy arm around Gustav's shoulders, gesturing across air.

"It would be my pleasure, oh, chiefly one." Gustav accepted with a proud smile on his face. "Everyone choose a buddy!' He called over his shoulder as he walked off down the hill in a egotistical and confident manner to the point where it was provoking. "Don't want anyone to get lost in the ol' tour de la berserkers!'

Hiccup huffed under his breath, turning to his girlfriend beside him with an exasperated look. "More like Gustav will get us lost." He muttered close to Astrid's ear so Dagur nor Gustav could hear his snide comment.

Astrid tittered and barked a laugh under her breath. "So then, would you be my buddy? You can assure i won't be lost." Astrid proposed with an inviting smile, holding up a hand.

Hiccup quirked his head and gave Astrid a lopsided smile that she'd grown to adore. "At least being lost is better with you." Hiccup said teasingly, lacing their finger's together and followed in suit of Gustav.

The short Jorgenson gestured somewhat proudly in front of him. "This," He announced. "is what we call phase one." A barren strip of land with small dark patches of grass blooming by mossy stacks of stones, a few bushes and trees standing on the dirty ground. Huts lined with purple and dragon-like scales designs for roofs with dragon heads adorning the top lined the center; arranged down a line like barracks, looking impossibly plain and un-unique. Villagers armed with brooms where sweeping mindlessly at the floors, looking content and well into their work.

The gang was un-amused.

At the sight of the newcomers, the people turned their attention to the riders and waved at them with smiles on their face. The gang didn't know how to react, this was very much opposed to the berserkers they'd fought against months ago.

"Is that a smile?" Tuffnut said incredulously, "Wait, are you happy?" He scoffed, Ruffnut rolling her eyes with her hand of her hip. "That's the best you can do on BERSERKER ISLAND!" Tuffnut stomped his feet like he was a child who didn't get what he wanted for christmas. 

Ruffnut looked like she was about to sleep on the spot. "Boring!' She called.

The Berserkers just looked confused.

"I gotta agree with Tuffnut a little." Hiccup said quietly, eyeing the village around him. It was eerie - these villagers wouldn't be dubbed 'Berserkers' on first glance. Hel, they were even more peaceful than the Berkians. "This place is...so different."

Astrid nodded agitatedly, stepping closer to Hiccup and pressed herself to Hiccup's arm. She felt a bit safer that way, being in a foreign land almost scared her. 

"Hey, everything will be fine." Hiccup picked up on her agitation and circled his arms around her back, stroking her forearms reassuringly. 

"I know." Astrid peered up at him through her lashes and gave him a smile.
