IT HAS BEEN WAY OVER 2 WEEKS. IT'S BEEN MORE LIKE 2 MONTHS.
VERY IMPORTANT:
I wanted to update but couldn't bring myself to choose between Merricup and Hiccstrid. So with the help of a fellow author I decided to do both. I will be writing a chapter for both Hiccstrid and Merricup. If you ship Merricup, go on and read this chapter. If you ship Hiccstrid, leave a review with a suggestion on what Hiccstrid oneshot they react to. And please read the rest of the author's note.
Thank you to all the reviews/follows/favorites! It makes writing so much more enjoyable!
Oh and 2 more things:
1) I posted a Big Hero 6 oneshot about Hiro remembering Tadashi so if you don't mind getting hit right in the feels, that might be nice to read.
2) Animal Lover I will write that oneshot but before I do any last minute changes? (btw thank you for the detailed review)
Anyways, responding to reviews!
Servo: Um thanks? (I don't know if "not bad" is good or just 'eh') Anyways, although the HansxTadashi reaction would be funny, I don't think any one has actually written a oneshot for HansxTadashi.
LunaNightFury: Thank you so much! And Hijack will probably be coming soon, the reactions to that will be PRICELESS! hopefully :)
Stephanie Silverfield: Good suggestion, although I still can't get over the fact that they are sisters! I just don't ship sibling pairs. (no offense to anyone who does, and I will still probably have them react to it)

AND ON TO THE WOODS!
uh... i meant,
ON WITH THE STORY!
Chapter 14 Part 1 - Merricup
Everyone stared at the unlikely pair that were now crying and hugging each other.
"WHY WOULD THEY PUT US IN A SHIP WHY?"
"WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS?"
Polaris watched, unimpressed, arms crossed, as did most of the people/creatures present.
This went on for a few minutes, as the Spirit of Winter and the King of Fear continued to sob, tears streaming out of their eyes. Finally Go-Go popped her gum loudly, bringing attention to the fact that she was videotaping the entire scene.
Pitch and Jack immediately separated, taking a moment to untangle their arms. Elsa covered her mouth with her hand, but her crystal eyes betrayed her, showing her smile. Jack glared at the Queen and she began to giggle. Soon her sister joined her, and within the next few seconds everyone was laughing, save the two extremely embarrassed men standing in the middle of all the laughing faces.
Eventually (about 15 minutes later), Polaris took pity on Pitch and allowed him to recede to his portal, Jack however…
Polaris wiped tears from her eyes as she quieted her laughter. Unfortunately for Jack, the brunette had contagious laughter, which in the end did not allow him much dignity.
"Don't worry Jack," the girl grinned. "One day you'll laugh about this."
Jack nodded sarcastically, crossing his arms and turning away.
Polaris clapped her hands together and smiled.
"Well then, let's get back to fanfiction. Today we are going to be reading a Merricup oneshot written by an author who goes by the name bleedingmaroon."
"Merricup…" Anna mumbled, trying to make sense of it.
Rapunzel also thought hard, trying to understand it. As Polaris began to speak, the princess widened her eyes and squealed.
"Merida and Hiccup!"
Polaris smiled, nodding, as Hiccup and Merida blushed, turning away from each other.
Hiccup turned to Astrid and she smiled her consent, happily wrapping her arm around Eret's waist.
Polaris snapped her fingers and a portal appeared. Out walked a muscular blonde man, his hair about shoulder length, his armor silver, his cape red. In the man's hand he wielded a large hammer, which, although it looked immensely heavy, he held easily.
Polaris brought him into a hug, not minding the cold feeling of metal on her arms. The man likewise returned her embrace, lifting her off the ground.
Once the two friends released each other, Polaris grinned widely.
"Good to see you."
"You too." said the man.
Those present who understood countries (remember, some of them don't understand our world) immediately recognized his English accent.
"Well, would you mind reading the oneshot?"
The blond sighed. "The things you make me do."
Polaris smirked. "The things you let me make you do." she corrected.
The man nodded, smiling, then turned to the computer. He would have introduced himself, but Polaris had requested that he keep his name to himself, at least for the time being. He assumed that she wanted her friends to guess his identity, although he didn't see that as much of a challenge. To him, at least, it seemed pretty obvious.
As the man thought of Polaris's possible reasoning, he felt a nudge on his shoulder. He turned to find himself face to face with a dragon.
The hero's first instinct was to hammer it, for he saw it as a threat, but after a moment he realized that it was friend rather than foe. It was extremely round, and it has rolled onto it's back, smiling. The man also smiled and began to scratch the creature's stomach when a rotund boy (similar to the dragon), groaned.
"Meatlug, come back!"
The dragon pulled itself to its short stubby feet and walked, or more appropriately, waddled, back to it's companion, nuzzling the boy's large hand.
As the man turned back to the computer, Polaris nodded to her friend, indicating that it was time to start.
"I don't have anything to wear," Merida muttered to herself as she flipped through her wardrobe.
Merida laughed. "Well this ain't realistic, now is it?" she said, with her always present Scottish accent.
Actually, it was filled with different kind of dresses. Ranging from her average daily ones to some of her fancy and 'lady-like' dresses her mom keep on insisting that she have.
With a deep sigh, Merida pulled out an azure colored dress with a straight cut and long sleeved. She stared at it not quite happy with the dress.
Eleanor turned to her daughter suspiciously. "Merida, I haven't seen that dress in ages. What did you d-"
"Let's just keep reading!" Her daughter interrupted. It was a sign of how much Eleanor's bear transformation had changed her, that she let the interruption pass.
'This dress… Ugh, this wouldn't do,' she mentally complained as she will the dress to be something more. What kind of more? She didn't even know herself.
The princess hanged back the dress with frustration. Crossing her arms, she scrutinized her clothes one more time. She flipped between dresses and dresses. Get one, look at it for a second and put it back inside. The redhead did it again and again until she lost count on how many times she did it.
"Merida, what's happening to you? Just pick any dress, any dress, and don't complain about it. When did you even start to care which dress looks pretty?" she screamed to herself as she watched her reflection in a nearby mirror.
Merida widened her eyes. This was one of her fears. That when she grew older, she would began worrying about unimportant things such as dress choices.
Her hair was flying around all over the direction. She… looked like a rag doll which was strewn all over the places.
Most of the time she didn't actually notice, but as she stared at the mirror, she instantly felt something flickered inside her, a feeling that was unknown, but is still familiar. She only knew one thing. This feeling is making her nervous on her own skin.
The princess shook the thought out of her mind and huffed as she dismissed what she saw in the mirror. She directed her gaze back to the dresses with a new determination. She'll just pick one and get over with it.
"Let's see, which the prettiest one in here is?" she whispered. Her eyes turned into big saucers when she realized what she just said. Did she really say that she wanted a pretty dress?
Merida face palmed.
"Oh no, no, what's wrong with me?" she said hopelessly as she pulled her hair into her face, hiding from the vast amount of fiery red locks.
Whatever was happening to her she hates it, no, she loathes it. Why did she suddenly turn conscious about herself? Why did she suddenly start to care about looking pretty? Why is she acting like… Man, it hurt her to say it even on her own mind… but why did she started to behave like a woman? She's actually more scared of her sudden shift in attitude than facing the bear monster Mor'du.
Merida began pulling at her hair, scowling. Hiccup took her hand and rubbed her palm, relaxing her.
"Okay, fine, I want to wear a pretty dress and it's all Hiccup's fault," she shouted on the top of her lungs as she kicked her wardrobe shut.
Hiccup smirked but immediately stopped, Merida was glaring at him.
Merida couldn't understand herself. She didn't know why all of a sudden she becomes conscious of herself. Of how she looked like, what she wears and things that the old her wouldn't even glance back.
"Oh damn you Hiccup," she cursed him as she open her wardrobe again reluctantly.
After finally admitting to herself that she really does like to wear a very feminine and delicate looking dress, she finally pulled out the pink dress she has been eyeing on the corner of her eyes for a while.
A faint blush graced her face as she touched the black flower embroider and lace pattern at the boat neckline of the dress. The dress was delicate pale pink in color with a contrasting black lace on the neckline and hem.
Normally, Merida would be disgusted if she saw a dress with this color, but one looked at the dress and all she could see was elegance and beauty.
Astrid stared at her redhead friend, waiting for a reaction. Merida, sensing the girls gaze turned to the blonde and mouthed 'help me'.
Walking inside her changing screen, she shimmed out of her bathrobe and carefully wore the dress. She's silently praying that it wouldn't look hideous on her, or worse clash horribly with her hair color.
The princess shyly went back on the front of the mirror with crossed fingers. If this thing looks hideous on her, she'll burn it right away…
Finally Merida showed a hint of a smile.
or not.
Now it's a scowl.
A huge grin made its way on her youthful face. It doesn't look bad at her. Actually, it suits her a lot.
She felt giddy all of a sudden and she twirled like a little kid in the front of the mirror giggling. "Oh Merida, what's happening to you?" she whispered on her reflection, shrugging a little on her own silliness.
"Now, let's do something about this messy hair," the redhead muttered as she grabbed a comb and carefully combed her curly red locks.
Merida had had enough.
"NO. THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD FIX MY HAIR. NEVER. EVER! HOW DARE TH-"
Merida suddenly quieted as she heard Polaris's voice in her head.
"Don't worry. You'll love the end."
The redhead grumbled and motioned for the reader to continue.
Pursing her lips, she hesitantly fiddled with the white ribbon her ma gave her a few weeks ago. Maybe she'll also use it now.
Eleanor clasped her hands together and smiled.
With a little bit of difficulty, the princess tied the white ribbon to keep her uncontrollable mess of a hair away from her face. Merida looked again at her reflection and a small blush tinted her cheeks. She… she looks totally adorable and cute.
A low growl was heard.
"I never thought I'll see myself doing this… on my own consent," Merida muttered to herself as she tugged softly at the white ribbon holding her hair away from her face.
"Hey Hiccup!" Merida called out as soon as she saw him. She carefully made her way to where he was sitting.
"Hello there milady, you look beautiful," the Viking compliment her as he softly kissed her cheeks and put a small white flower on her ear.
Once again, the pair let a small blush creep upon their faces, as Merida leaned into Hiccup's chest.
She laughed uncomfortably and pushed him gently. "You're just flattering me," she said as she gave him a shy smile, her cheeks were burning a little.
With a laugh, the auburn haired man ruffled the princess hair. "You know I love you just the way you are," Hiccup said awkwardly. "You being pretty are just one of the bonuses," he added as he gave her a genuine crooked smile. Merida gave Hiccup a long hug and she nuzzled her cheek on his chest.
A few people noticed that Merida and Hiccup were doing nearly the exact same thing now.
The next thing she knew was that they are both in the lake with a chuckling dragon looking down at them.
Toothless of course, decided to intervene. He slobbered all over the two, leaving them both laughing.
"You Toothless!" Hiccup warned as he waddled on the water while holding Merida's hand. Merida smile and shrugged, she's glad that she didn't wear the pale pink pretty dress she's eyeing this morning.
Polaris gave Merida a wink, which the redhead responded to with a grin.
In a way the oneshot was real.
That's why everyone cheered when Hiccup stopped laughing, because Merida had surprised him with a kiss.
I'm not sure whether to make this their first kiss, or if they were dating already, so leave a review on which one you would prefer. Also, CAN ANYONE GUESS WHO THE READER WAS? Also, next chapter will be Hiccstrid, so if you read Merricup you might not want to read that one. Well maybe the author's note. Oh and please go read my oneshot Tadashi is Here, I want to know what you guys think. Once again, sorry for the long time without updates, I'll try not to let it happen again.
Peace out brotatoes
