A/N: Okay, since the first chapter of this was based on a prompt I got at the HTTYD LJ comm, I decided to make this thing a series of prompt inspired ficlets too short to deserve their own stories. So prepare for randomness!

The prompt, via trufflehog: girl hiccup go go go [i mean. he's almost there anyway.]

Genderbending

There was a tapping sound, and Astrid looked up from where she had been organizing her weapons, then glanced at the window. The tapping sound came again, and Astrid walked over and pushed the shutters open.

Hiccup was outside the window, although he quickly ducked out of the light coming from the house. Toothless was in the distance, curled up on the ground at the back of the yard. "Astrid, we have a problem," Hiccup whispered, his voice oddly high pitched.

Astrid furrowed her brow in confusion and said, "What is it?"

Hiccup looked around nervously, and gestured for Astrid to come outside. "It's kinda hard to explain." He was almost cowering in the shadows, and the position made him look even smaller than usual. Astrid's expression grew even more concerned, and she climbed out the window.

"What's wrong with your voice?" she asked as Hiccup squared his shoulders and stepped into the light. "And your face? And your...breasts..."

Astrid's jaw dropped as she stared at the young woman in front of her. The young woman who looked quite a lot like Hiccup, and answered to Hiccup, but was most assuredly not the boyfriend Astrid had seen just that morning.

"What...what..." Astrid gave up. There were no words.

"I don't know!" girl Hiccup said, flinging her hands into the air. "Toothless and I were flying over Helheim's Gate, then all of a sudden there was this big puff of - not smoke exactly, but something. And then this!" She gestured towards her substantially altered body, and Astrid pressed a fist to her mouth in concern. "I think Toothless is a girl now too, but he won't let me get close enough to check. We have to do something!"

"Do something?" Astrid asked vaguely, obviously still trying to process what exactly was going on.

"Yes! I mean, I'm, I'm a -" Hiccup abruptly stopped and visibly tried to calm herself down. "Okay, we can do this. We'll go back to Helheim's Gate, do some investigating, figure out a way to solve the problem -"

"Oh no," Astrid said.

Hiccup stopped. "Astrid?"

Astrid was biting a knuckle now, and Hiccup suddenly realized the look on her face wasn't concern. It was something far, far different. "This...isn't a problem," Astrid said. "Not at all."

Hiccup froze, then slowly began to back away as Astrid just as slowly began to stalk forward. "What...what are you doing?"

The only answer Astrid gave was a wicked grin.
