Summary
“I just wish…”
“What do you wish?”
“I wish I could have changed it all.”
For years Bilbo has written about his adventures and told stories about his dealings with dwarves and dragons. To most it seemed like fanciful nonsense but to Bilbo it was all very real. A weight followed him home from his travels, one called regret. Now in his final moments Bilbo has a choice to make – go quietly into death’s embrace or go back again and face all the fear and pain for the chance to make things right?
Of course, change is a fickle thing and not everything can be done again as Bilbo is about to find out. In the end, it may not only be salvation that he’s fighting for.

Summary
Hiccup didn't see the point in stopping Astrid as she ran off towards his village—towards his father—with his most desperately protected secret. He was leaving anyway. A coming-of-age tale. Deviates from movie. Borderline bromantic-comedy.

Summary
Their ride back to Berk was silent.
Stoick held his boy in his arms, still so small as though he were a babe. His hair was tussled, knotted, and Stoick’s large fingers slowly worked through the tangles. He waited, breathless, for his son to suddenly wake up. Suddenly gasp into life and laugh. He would smile and stutter through some sarcastic joke and Stoick would -
But it didn’t matter now, what Stoick would do. All that mattered was what he had done, what he had said, all the things he couldn’t take back.
Or, Hiccup doesn't make it out alive from his battle with the Red Death, and Stoick mourns his son, Astrid mourns a person she never got to know, and Toothless mourns his other half.

Summary
He’d split a rock on his head as a child. He’d ripped a nadder’s head from its shoulders as a baby. He’d been made chief when his father died to dragons, and as chief he’d watched his Valka miscarry for years only to be snatched away by dragons from their only surviving child; and, nearing what should have been the end of his time as chief, his heir and son had gone missing, probably because of dragons too. And he’d survived that. The people of Berk were tough, worn and weathered and rooted down into the earth like the mountain against whose base they had settled.
But Stoick wasn’t so certain anymore that they could survive much longer. Hiccup was gone, but the village still skirted disaster; Astrid was his heir, but the Berk she was inheriting was char and charcoal.
After Hiccup went missing Stoick's certainty in victory against dragons disappeared too. A mysterious Dragon Master offers hope, but hope is a man with a Night Fury for a shadow and a power that brought the tyrant who last bore that title to his knees.

Summary
Dennis bit the quick of his thumbnail, nibbling until he drags the skin to a hangnail. Until his tongue blooms with the taste of salty copper. He stops briefly, pulls away to inspect his thumb before ripping off the piece of skin once and for all. A piercing cry snaps his attention and his heart lurches forward, body moving on autopilot. Still, he's drowning.
_ _ _Dennis is a single dad and no one in the Pitt knows. Actually, no one knows he (and his daughter) are unhoused either. That all changes when his baby gets sick and only gets worse, forcing him to show up in the ED distraught.
