Pairing: Hijack
Seasonal AU: Hiccup as the spirit of Autumn

Those few stories are RP logs I saved from our sessions with my dear partner Leandra (SinisterSundown).
Why not sharing them with the world?

I hope you'll like them as much as we liked playing them.
Jack is me
Hiccup is Leandra.


Your character has got one free pass to ask my character anything, and they must answer truthfully, and afterwards my character will forget the conversation. How does your character use it?

Hiccup knew about the Guardians but had never met them.
"What would you say if I told you the others want to see you at North's Christmas party?" Jack said, embarassement obvious on his face, as he rubbed the back of his head.

The autumn spririt almost choked on his own saliva at the question, looking up from his canvas just to stare at the winter spirit with wide green eyes.
"What did you say?" he managed to ask in a slightly higher pitched voice, immediately a lot of thoughts rushing through his mind. Oh Gods. He had tried to imagine meeting the Guardians several times, but whenever he did this he was relieved that he didn't actually have to meet them. Not that he was really scared of it or something, but…besides Jack he hadn't really met another spirit for ages, maybe even centuries. Just thinking about having a conversation with them freaked him out.

"Jack, you can't be serious!" he cried out, standing up and walking over to the other spirit. "You know that I can't do that! I barely managed it to bond with you, if you remember, how am I supposed to even talk with the other Guardians?" he asked, bringing his hands up to his auburn hair, shoving his fingers through it before he slightly and almost desperately tugged on it. "What kind of impression do you think I'll make, all I'll do is… talking about plants and leaves and…plants! I am not good at making conversation, you know that, and-" he stopped, releasing a breath just to take another one as an attempt to calm himself while his hands were struggling in the air, as if to fight an invisible opponent.

He let them fall to his sides when he stopped struggling with air and words, fumbling with his sleeves. "I need something else to wear. And I need presents. And I have to read books about social interactions. There is no time left!" he concluded, quickly hurrying through his small burrow, throwing several books onto his bed. So much to do, so less time!

Jack was rocking on his feet, not looking comfortable at all. He himself wasn't sure he was ready to introduce Hiccup to the others, and as Toothiana was so insistent to say and announce, as Jack's lover boy. It was too embarassing. He could already hear Bunny's snickers and feel North's big slaps in the back. And the Baby-Teeth. They were already jealous, refusing to look at him and he hoped they wouldn't be rude to Hiccup.
He sighed. Why was it always so difficult? Surely it was the downside when you finally had a social life and acquaintances.

But for now the poor autumn spirit was clearly in a panic and he had to do something. He took one step forward and grabbed his wrists, so it would prevent his hands to fly everywhere or tug on his hair again.
"Hiccup." he called once. Then twice, louder, when it seemed the first time didn't hit.
"You'll be perfect whatever you do, why would you try to be something you're not?"

Hiccup had to stop in his movements when Jack suddenly grabbed his wrists, and he was about to keep up his babbling when he called out his name. It wasn't always easy to get through to him when he was in a panic, he had to admit that, but Jack's voice always could find a way through. So he looked up into the other's eyes.
"Because I don't think the usual me will be convincing and impressing and I have to make a good impression and…I have no clue how to act among people, I mean, I read a lot about manners but still…! And I need presents because it's Christmas and I heard it's common sense to give someting as a present. And since Santa Claus is the host of the meeting I have to give him something extra too, and since I never celebrated Christmas I have no idea what I could give and-" he took a deep breath. He hadn't noticed how fast he had been talking and that he was running out of air. "I never met more than one person at a time" he continued, slower and a little calmer. "I don't know how to act and what they expect of me."

Jack sighed, how it was hard to stop Hiccup once he'd started one of his little rants. He listened to all his arguments though.
He rubbed gently the soft skin under the other's wrists with his thumbs while talking.
"Hey it's going to be okay, I'm sure they're going to love you and you know I'm sure I'll get my fair share of teasing on this matter… " he paused just for one second. "Plus I never got any present for North he's the one doing that usually, so I guess it's not a problem."

But he knew perfectly well this feeling of being out of place and not know how to behave, so he could relate to that, and it was even stronger in Hiccup's case. Himself coudn't stay in a crowded space for long and he had always wandered around. That's not like the workshop was small and there was nothing to see there.
"Come on Hiccup they just want to meet you, I promise we won't stay for long if you're not feeling well."

Hiccup inhaled through his nose and exhaled through his mouth. He had learned that abdominal breathing was supposed to calm you down. And it helped a little, even though his breath was a little shaky when he exhaled.
He pulled his wrists out of Jack's grip and instead fumbled with the cords on Jack's hoodie, focusing on them.
"So we can leave when it's too much?" he asked silently, hands shaking a little. Just thinking about it made him nervous.

Jack had noticed how Hiccup played with those cords everytime he was nervous or needed to calm down from anything. It was endearing to him, as it meant he had a real soothing effect on the other, even if it was only from his clothing, but surely it was associated with him in Hiccup's mind.
"Of course! You don't think I'm able to stay confined in a room for hours? I personally have my favorite spots outside and inside the workshop, it's big enough for a little lonely time if needed, don't worry too much." he said gently, now placing his hands on the autumn spirit's arms and stroking a little with his thumbs.

The winter spririt's words relieved Hiccup a lot, it took a weight off his mind and he managed a small encouraged smile. He stopped playing with the cords but didn't let go of them. Instead he let his hands rest against Jack's chest, tugging a little on the cords that gave him an odd feeling of comfort. "Okay…I'll try my best to stay calm." he stated, looking at the hands on his arms. "But if you leave me alone with them there will be consequences!" he tried to joke, offering a crooked smile.

Jack would never let something bad happen to Hiccup, ever. Even if the bad thing was how distressed he was among people he didn't know.
"I'm sure you will be perfect." he smiled down to him. The autumn spirit's hands on his chest make his heart beat faster but was making him feel at home and relaxed too somehow.

"What kind of consequences? You know it's a dangerous thing to say to me." he warned, still smiling. Never leave Jack with things to figure out it's the best way to have him doing the contrary of what you'd want.

Hiccup scrunched his nose. Jack always took these kind of things as a challenge and this surely wasn't his intention. At least not this time. (Sometimes he loved to challenge Jack. He had figured out that he could do this best if he said to Jack he shouldn't do it just for him to do it. It was hilarious…sometimes.)
"Don't know…" he trailed off, starting to draw little circles with his fingers on the spot on Jack's chest where his hand just laid till now. "Maybe I am never ever going to talk to you again. Or I'll make you eat things I know you absolutely hate…or maybe I'll poison you." he said slowly raising his eyes to Jack's. "So…better not try, will you? Not kidding about that, Jack."

Jack took his best frightened face and shook his head. "Oh no, please no, I'll do anything, but not that!"
On one hand he knew Hiccup wouldn't do that but better to play it as if the smaller spirit had the upper hand there, and actually Jack knew enough to know what were the limits he shoudn't cross. He wasn't going to make Hiccup uneasy or make him suffer just because he was curious or for a dare, this wasn't fun. (well maybe on the first second of it happening but not for the rest of the time where he'll only have regrets and would hate himself.)

"Good. Because I am not joking this time." Hiccup warned before he got up to his tiptoes and kissed Jack on the lips. Then he let go completely, walking through his little lair, taking the book he thought would help best and flopped down on the bed. Just because Jack could soothe him a little it didn't mean that he was really sure about all of this. Better be safe than sorry.

Suddenly alone standing in the small room, Jack felt confined and at a loss of what to do, so with the most confidence in his stride he could muster he walked to the bed and sat near Hiccup.
He knew he was welcome here but maybe the other wanted to be alone. But if he was very still and quiet maybe he'd be authorised to stay while he was reading.
And so he could also give some advice of what to do once they were at North's.

Hiccup, who was sitting on the bed now looked up from the first page of the book and made a small movement with his head. "Join me and hold me and comfort me before I go crazy alright?" he asked, raising an eyebrow before quickly hiding his face behind the book again. Leaning against Jack while doing some serious business was probably just what he needed right now. His mere presence was comforting and he really didn't want to be alone if he had to deal with the Guardians in just a matter of hours.

This was better. With a smile, Jack flopped down completely on the bed. This he could do. Pretty well even.
He moved until he was behind Hiccup and created him a nice nest with his legs on each side of him then laced his arms around the autumn's spirit and his chin came to rest on his shoulder.
This was just the perfect way to chill.

As soon as Jack was in the right position Hiccup leant back, his body resting against his. He had always loved this position, from the first day on. It made him feel completely safe. And loved as well. Also it helped him to relax. The weight of Jack's chin on his shoulder was reassuring as well. This was perfect. It made everything look a little less bad as it was. He smiled, turned his head and pecked the other's cheek.
"Okay, and now back to business…can't allow you to regret the decision to introduce me." he tried to joke before finally burying his nose in the book, really not looking forward to tomorrow but to spending time with Jack.
