This took so long to write, but it is very long, so that's not a huge surprise.
-HTTYD-
Hiccup leant back in his chair, smiling to himself as he ran his thumb over the ring on his finger. Neither of them had wanted to go for gold, and as Hiccup liked to work with his hands, they'd opted for durability when picking out rings. His was tungsten, designed to stay pretty and pristine unless he really wanted to destroy it. It was set with three little sapphires, and Astrid's ring was very similar, but set with emeralds - they'd matched each others eye colours. He'd been wearing the ring for almost a decade by then, and it looked as perfect as it had the day Astrid slid it on to his finger.
It had been an... interesting decade, to say the least. The lines in their relationship had started to blur from the first time Astrid had asked him to star in one of her shows, and it wasn't long after he'd done that show with both Astrid and Eret before the two of them had stopped pretending it was just friendship and sex. When Heather and Eret found out that Hiccup and Astrid were now officially dating, Eret pulled out a twenty pound note and handed it over to a gleeful Heather.
"You guys were betting on us?"
Astrid asked, though she didn't look all that upset. Hiccup wasn't either - Astrid was sat in his lap, their joined fingers resting against her stomach.
"Only about how long it would take. I said six months. In my defence, I wasn't expecting Astrid to haul you in to a DP scene on a live stream. Which would do wonders for killing off that shyness stopping you admitting you were head over heels in love with her."
"Whereas I figured the fact you were willing to star on stream meant you weren't that shy, and it was just a matter of time before Astrid noticed your goo-goo eyes and told you that you two were dating now."
Hiccup laughed and shrugged it off.
"Either way, I'm happy."
Eret grinned, then winked.
"Hope you won't mind us having sex with your girl Hiccup."
He knew the other man was making a joke about the fact Astrid wasn't going to quit her job, which involved sex with other people. The two had already acknowledged that Astrid dating Hiccup did not mean she was quitting her cam work, and so Hiccup simply smiled.
"Just wear a rubber."
Hiccup still moderated most of Astrid's shows, and the ones he didn't mod for were the ones he starred in himself. He wasn't a weekly star like Eret, as he wanted at least some of his sex life to be private, but sex with Astrid was certainly never going to be a bad way to spend an evening. And when the cameras were off, it was him Astrid cuddled up to, sipping tea and smiling softly. He was the one who saw her in the morning, hazy and warm with sleep. It was him she walked hand in hand with, chasing Toothless around muddy parks or trawling the supermarket. The mundane in their lives was a wonderful contrast to the rather less mundane of their jobs.
They got engaged on their first anniversary as a couple. Hiccup still smiled at that memory too; their relationship had gone from strength to strength that whole year, but he'd hesitated on proposing. Not because of Astrid's job, but because he was worried she'd think he was asking her to quit by asking her to marry him. When Astrid obviously realised that, she took the initiative and proposed to him. Then called him an idiot for not talking to her about his concerns.
"I know you'll never ask me to quit. When I stop working on camera, it will be because I choose to. Obviously your job is linked to mine, so we'd be discussing it anyway, but I wouldn't be with you if I didn't think I could count on you to support me, my independence, my autonomy. We don't make choices for each other. We make decisions with each other. Now shut up and kiss me."
Hiccup did as he was told, smiling the entire time. Gods, he loved her.
They were married less than six months after they got engaged. Neither of them wanted something expensive and extravagant, just a fun day with friends and family. Though mixing some of their friends with slightly more conservative family members... that had definitely made the day more interesting. Hiccup could pick out which gifts were from their more outrageous friends easily - Astrid had insisted they be wrapped with strong tape, to ensure nobody accidentally saw what sort of things people like Eret or Heather considered appropriate choices. Though he couldn't deny those gifts had definitely made the honeymoon more fun.
Astrid took nine days off from her camera stream, and had let her viewers know in advance. It meant she could take the whole day and night off before their wedding, and have a day off to herself when they returned from their week long honeymoon. The where of it wasn't terribly important to either of them, so they didn't see much point in going to the expense of flights or hotels in foreign countries. The log cabin that served as a holiday home to Hiccup's family more than served their purposes for wanting some time just the three of them - Hiccup, Astrid, and Toothless of course.
The cabin was surrounded by beautiful scenery, relaxing and lovely to look at even when it was raining. Astrid was delighted by the sight of the enormous hot tub - many members of Hiccup's family were tall and stocky, so to the two of them it was almost like a small heated swimming pool. The scenery and the hot tub were completely ignored their first night there, and there were no toys or targets or audiences to perform to as the newlyweds undressed each other. They made love on the rug in front of the fireplace, heat of the flames no match for the fire that Astrid lit within Hiccup as he watched her writhe under him, both bare except for their new rings.
The week wasn't all spent in bed (or on the floor, or over a table...), though the couple did definitely enjoy looking through and trying out some of their gifts. Eret had bought them a bumper pack of different lubes, and he'd also attached a post-it note to the front with the words "not saying you need the help Hiccup, but Astrid does love cherries! written on it. He'd also gotten them a photo album - well, he'd bought an empty photo album, and then hand-crafted the leather cover he put on it with Hiccup and Astrid's names carved on the front in runes. As he knew Hiccup liked to take photos, it was a sweet and thoughtful gift, offering them somewhere to store and treasure memories of their life now they were married.
When they eventually made it outside, they chased Toothless along the rocky beach nearby, traipsed through thick grass and trees and Hiccup realised how unfit he was when Astrid convinced him to hike up a couple of hills. Astrid promised to get him in to better shape, laughing as she commented that he'd need to if he was going to keep up with her for the rest of their lives. Though he felt like his lungs hated him when he got to the top, Hiccup did have to admit the views from up at the top of them were gorgeous. Even more so as a backdrop for looking at Astrid too.
Their lives - and jobs - didn't change much once they got back from their week away. Astrid did her shows, Hiccup moderated them or sometimes starred. By the time they'd gotten around to actually getting married, a lot of Astrid's following had started rooting for them to get together for real. There were still lots of fans of Heather and Eret's nights with Astrid, but apparently the romantic chemistry between himself and Astrid had not gone unnoticed by the viewers. After some discussion about whether or not to say it outright (sharing too much personal information was a no-go in general as a camgirl), Hiccup and Astrid agreed to something that had been requested many times but never given before then, and started going condom-free on the camera. They got tested regularly anyway, as did anybody else Astrid brought in to her shows, and had stopped using condoms with each other a couple of months after they started dating, since Astrid was on birth control and they were as safe and risk-aware as could be otherwise.
Hiccup's popularity with the fans had increased quite a bit after that.
His parents knew what Astrid did, and had a fairly good idea that Hiccup was involved too. So when they were over at his dads place to have dinner one of their rare free evenings, it wasn't a big deal for Astrid to bring up that they were considering a trip back to America to help her camgirl career along again.
"I went by myself last time, but I wouldn't want to spend so long away from Hiccup and Toothless again. Plus I'd love to introduce him to some of the friends I made over there last time."
"Aye, sounds good."
His dad nodded his agreement before shoving a hunk of steak in to his mouth. Hiccup hid a grin in his drink when he saw his mother roll her eyes - his parents were divorced, but still on good terms. In fairness to his dad, Valka's table manners weren't much better. She just didn't have a huge beard to catch food in. After chewing thoughtfully on a bread roll, his uncle Gobber spoke up.
"Actually, that might work out well. Me and Stoick were chatting about you two just the other day! We've got that land just waiting to be built on, how about we build you guys a home there?"
The conversation didn't quite end there - for starters, building a home wasn't cheap, even if Hiccup's family were basically an extended network of people who could lift heavy things and build just about anything. But Astrid's job brought them a decent income, and cutting down the cost of paying actual builders would make quite a good saving.
"I guess it would help. Be cheaper to put all our stuff in storage while we're in America, then just move it in to the new place when we get back. How long do you think you'd need?"
Hiccup asked once they'd been wheedled in to accepting the enormous gift. Gobber and Stoick looked at each other, apparently communicating entirely through telepathy before Gobber nodded.
"Five, maybe six months? That's if we go single storey, but it's big enough to build a decent place on one floor and you'll never have to worry about falling down the stairs! Or any future little Haddocks taking a tumble. A kid with Hiccup's clumsiness and Astrid's energy... yeah, no stairs sounds pretty safe to me."
Hiccup shared a look with his new wife. They'd agreed kids were on the table in the future, but parental pressure for grandbabies was not what either of them wanted. They needed to figure out what they were going to do when Astrid was done with streaming - she was popular for now, but women in adult entertainment tended to lose their appeal to some by their mid thirties, and Astrid had already said she didn't want to be a camgirl her whole life. It was just good money and great fun.
"Single storey sounds better anyway. I mean, you already can't do stairs that easy now Gobber, and I'd like it if our place was wheelchair accessible, especially since the doctors said you might need one when you get older. Easier for plumbing too."
"Alright, that's settled then! We'll get all the plans, paperwork and permits sorted before you leave, and you two can have a lovely trip and then come back to your new home! Aww, our boy is finally growing up and settling down!"
Astrid winked and gave Hiccup a knowing smile. Settling down didn't quite sound right for them just yet, but the idea of having their forever home ready and waiting after they took an extended holiday together did sound pretty awesome.
"So... important question. How many extra bedrooms will the two of you be needing for the future?"
Hiccup still remembered how he'd covered his face and groaned aloud at that question.
There were lots of perks to having so much say in the building of their forever home, Astrid mused. Her personal favourites were their en-suite bathroom and the big windows looking out on their big garden, with native flowers and a vegetable patch, fruit trees growing along the back that gave a nice shady spot to sit in during summer.
So many memories had already been made there in the last ten years too, starting from the minute she and Hiccup had gotten back from their six month trip to America. Granted, that trip had been a lot of fun. Astrid still laughed at the memory of Hiccup finally getting to meet Mala... they'd made some lifelong friends too, and business connections that they still used now. And Astrid had been reminded that she'd married the right man multiple times, thinking back on how he'd hung out on set being nice to her co-stars when Astrid tried out a couple of professional porn shoots (it had been fun, but not the right route for her in the end - Astrid enjoyed the interaction with her audience, and that the events on her streams were her choice, not a script), and that time Astrid got involved in a live sex show at a strip club with her lovely husband cheering her on from the audience.
And then there was that fun strip poker night with Anna and Kristoff...
"Mooooom!"
Astrid was pulled from her trip down memory lane, turning around at the sound of a sweet (if loud) voice calling out to her. She leant down just enough to catch the little blonde tornado charging at her, love warm in her chest when she had Kara in her arms. Kara had Hiccup's green eyes and crooked smile, but otherwise the girl was a miniature of Astrid, all blonde hair and round cheeks and boundless energy.
"Hi baby girl. You ready to go to grandmas?"
"Yeah! Is Toothless coming?"
Much like her father, Kara adored animals. And digging around in the garden with her daddy. Hiccup had just managed to catch up with the little bundle of energy, and was smiling from the doorway as he looked over at Astrid and Kara cuddling.
"Of course. You know how much Toothless likes trips to grandma's house too."
When Astrid looked over, Hiccup had disappeared. He was back a minute later, holding his camera. Kara gave him a beaming smile - she loved looking through their photo album, and loved posing for pictures. She'd lost a couple of baby teeth, but her gap-toothed crooked grin was utterly precious and Astrid joined in smiling for the camera so Hiccup could snap a photo.
"Come on Kara, let's finish packing your weekend bag. Or it'll be me picking your clothes."
"No! I'll pick!"
Kara squirmed to be put down and chased after her father. Astrid chuckled as she watched, then bent down to give a hopeful looking Toothless a scratch behind the ear. He panted, rearing up to put his paws against her belly so Astrid could reach to pet him properly. Losing Kara for the weekend did make her a little sad, but their daughter adored spending time with their family, and juggling childcare and three jobs was stressful, so Astrid knew it was important she and Hiccup sometimes got time to themselves.
Astrid still streamed a couple of times a week, mostly by herself or with Hiccup. She made an effort to invite new talent in and give their popularity a boost too - everybody had to start somewhere. Heather had moved to America to work in porn, and she was currently a mother-of-one in a long-term triad relationship with Jack and Elsa (thanks to Astrid's match-making, as she'd known Heather had a crush on Elsa but was reticent to make a move because Elsa had started dating Jack), and Astrid still streamed with Eret when he was around, but he spent a couple of months each year back in his native Saami homeland connecting with his culture and vlogging about a mix of enjoying that and raising awareness of environmental concerns up there. He'd met another Saami man while he was there, and Ryder made Eret happy and supported his sex work.
She'd also known from the start that she wasn't going to be a camgirl forever, and so once she and Hiccup had settled down in their new home, she'd also gone back to education, taking a university course to qualify as a sex therapist, which kept her busy in the day time. Hiccup was a stay-at-home dad in the day, and Astrid's moderator-slash-co-star for their camera streams.
Once she finished university, she and Hiccup agreed it was time to expand the family a little, and that was when Kara had come along. Hiccup joked that nobody who saw her on stream would ever have put her together with the mom who cooed over their little girl, but Astrid was completely smitten with their daughter from day one.
Her third job overlapped with streaming a considerable amount, and that was also Hiccup's night-job. They ran a business that networked sex workers together, making informational videos about everything from streaming to things like having a relationship with or as a sex worker and everything in between. The 'Dragons Edge' (named because Hiccup loved dragons, and edging. Astrid felt those reasons were fun enough alone, but it also meant people could refer to it without immediately telling everybody around them they were in sex work) had resources like lists of sexual health clinics, anonymous testimonies from actors and actresses about which production companies were good or bad to work for, and more recently they'd started putting together lists of therapists who were supportive of sex workers so they could access mental health services regardless of whether or not they were linked to the job itself.
There was also a page dedicated to linking people up for online gaming, which had sprung up from Hiccup and Kristoff struggling to manage their differing time-zones when they wanted to game together and just sort of snow-balled in to a whole thing. It was Astrid's favourite page, because it was so wonderfully mundane and a solid reminder that everyone in their network, whether producer or porn star or full-service escort, was just an ordinary person with a whole ordinary life outside of their job.
Hiccup reappeared holding Kara's bag over one arm and a squirming Kara under the other, reminding the girl they needed to get going.
"I wanna play!"
"You can play at grandma's house. With Toothless! Now come on, get your shoes on little lady."
Kara pouted, but the opportunity to show off how independent she was won her over as she plonked herself down to work on tying her shoes all by herself. Hiccup watched her as he did his own up, fixing one of the knots against the little girl's protests before declaring them ready to go. Astrid stepped in to her own shoes and grabbed the adults bag and her own jacket, then scooped up Kara while Hiccup clipped a lead on to Toothless.
"Off we go!"
Astrid wrangled Kara in to her car seat, Toothless laying across the seat next to her soon distracting her from the indignity of needing a special child's seat. Hiccup was chuckling from the front seat as he watched them, waiting for Astrid to climb in the passenger side. Kara waved bye to their home as they drove off, which made Astrid melt a little with how cute it was.
Valka was waiting eagerly outside her house to meet them, and Kara barely waited for the straps to be off her before she leapt out and ran up, shouting "grandma!" excitedly the whole time. Valka, still sprightly in her fifties, quickly bent down to meet her and lifted Kara up, beaming as she was energetically hugged. Toothless bounded up too, circling Valka's legs and yipping happily.
"Hello my loves!"
She shifted Kara to one arm and hugged Hiccup and Astrid in turn, inviting them in to settle Kara and Toothless for the weekend.
"Thanks for doing this mom."
"Oh, you know I love to have them! We'll have lots of fun, won't we?"
"Yeah!"
Kara clapped, grinning away. Toothless climbed up in to Valka's lap for attention, blissfully unaware he was no longer small and sweet as he dropped his weight across her legs and panted happily when she petted him.
"We better get going, see you sunday."
After lots of goodbye kisses and hugs, Kara ran off toward Valka's back garden with Toothless to play. Hiccup handed over the girl's bag, and after they got some goodbye hugs from Valka too, Hiccup and Astrid headed back out with a last look to where they could see girl and dog bowling around the garden joyfully.
The drive to the studio wasn't too long, and Hiccup amused Astrid immensely with his terrible singing along to the radio throughout the trip. Astrid grabbed their bag and Hiccup followed, letting themselves in and finding Hiro was already there. He was Hiccup's current trainee, learning the ropes of the technical side of camera work. Hiro was sat playing on a handheld games console, with a bag of gummy bears open on the table next to him. That was pretty much how they always found him.
"Hey guys! Are you late or was I just super early?"
"You were early. Very early, judging by the half-empty bag you have there."
Hiro grinned and shrugged, scrubbing a hand through his hair bashfully. He'd only just turned twenty-one, and his interest in working in adult entertainment was somewhat offset by his boyish grin and his habits of constantly eating sweets or playing on a Game Boy.
"What can I say? Gummy bears rock! So, we doing this?"
"Yeah. Give us a few minutes to change and get set up."
It wasn't a live video, so they had no reason not to do it in the middle of the day now Kara had been dropped off and they had the weekend to themselves. Hiro went back to his game, occasionally reaching out to grab a gummy bear or two while he waited. They quickly showered and changed in to clothes that were easy to take off, then returned to the main room of the studio and Hiccup sat down with Hiro to run through the technicalities. Astrid snaffled a few gummy bears while she waited.
"If you're moderating, there's obviously a live chat to pay attention to, but a lot of the job is making sure the camera and lights and audio are all working right before the show, and keeping the audience aware of the donation system and upcoming dates. And as we've explained, you need to be able to pay attention to both the stream and the chat. No getting too distracted by watching and not noticing the sound has gone."
"I've been in the room while you two go at it enough times already. I'm more in danger of getting bored and wanting to play Pokemon instead. Or missing something because I dropped my lollipop."
"Well keep your hands off the lollipop while you're working."
Astrid quipped, giggling to herself. Hiccup turned to smile at her, then went back to educating Hiro. Once they were done, Hiccup joined her on the bed, and Hiro got himself set up with the camera, grabbing a final handful of gummy bears before he nodded.
"And we're rolling!"
Astrid started them off, talking future watchers through the basics of setting up light and audio. Hiccup took over the technicals of working out the webcam audio, and advising on the minimum camera quality necessary for a good stream.
"Cameras can be expensive, but you want a good laptop or computer to run the stream properly. Good Wi-Fi is obviously essential. These can be expensive initial costs, but consider it a good investment. And a moderator isn't necessarily essential, but I wouldn't advise going without one anyway. If money is tight, there are bot programs you can use at least in the early days, but having someone keeping track of your stream, donations, and the people watching is definitely worth it in the long run. I've written some bots myself, there'll be a link to information on that underneath this video."
After doing a few clothed poses to show the best ways to test out the best angle if they were using a static camera angle like a webcam, Astrid moved back to the front.
"I've been doing this for over ten years now, and he's right on every point. The main point to know when you're actually performing? Keep your audience engaged. There's some room for having fun and letting them see you naturally enjoy yourself, but if they feel like you have completely forgotten them the whole time, then you're no different to a standard porno clip. Do some basic streams where they can buy private time with you. You're absolutely allowed to have boundaries on what you will or won't do, but be prepared to come across some interesting kinks. One on one especially relies on you fulfilling their fantasies in real time, which helps you build your following. Then you can do the ones where you have targets and people pay to get you to them, and you can offer them the chance to do some suggestions or requests for future shows."
"Another reason to have a real life moderator. They can keep track of popular requests while you're... busy."
Hiccup added. They finished up the talk, then the two began undressing.
"You can make the strip show part of the stream, but I recommend a lot of practice first. And yes, you'll probably feel ridiculous doing so. But this is educational, and my husband hates stripping, so we're doing this the less sexy way."
Ten years on, Hiccup was still built lean, but years of keeping up with Astrid and Kara and working in the garden showed, his slim frame solid muscle save for a little softness around his belly (because Hiccup also still loved making cakes). She took a minute to enjoy the sight of him as he stripped off, then threw her bra at him and Hiccup laughed as he caught it.
"You should always be having fun. Good chemistry with co-stars is a huge help."
Once they were naked, Astrid turned back toward Hiro and the camera.
"Talk to the camera. Keep them interested, flirt with them. Sure, there's a lot of them and one of you, but like I said, make them feel like you're talking to them. Tell them how much you're looking forward to having fun with them. Once they're all warmed up and ready to go, you can get started."
"I'd recommend having sex with a potential co-star at least once before you bring in the live stream part. If you're not sexually compatible or comfortable, it'll show. And it helps to know what the other person likes. If your partner is especially well-endowed, then it's good to make sure you know which positions are uncomfortable."
Hiccup boosted Astrid up on to the bed, and she happily got comfortable, turning toward Hiro.
"I always recommend some foreplay. Genuine enjoyment is better for everybody, helps you relax and loosen up, and also kills time on a long stream. All round awesome."
Since it wasn't an actual stream, Astrid let herself forget the camera for a little bit as Hiccup got started. She wound her fingers through his hair, arching up in to his mouth and basking in his years of experience bringing Astrid to countless orgasms both on and off camera. Hiccup was always eager, one hand wrapped around her thigh while the other came up to press his fingers inside her, tongue working her clit as he rubbed her G-spot. Much as Astrid would have loved to just lay there and let him continue (for hours, really...), she also wanted to get the video finished some time that day.
When she nudged at his head, Hiccup lifted up and winked as he licked his wet lips, sending a delightful flutter through Astrid's belly. He straightened up further, exposing his erection where it curved up against his stomach. Astrid beckoned him closer, so Hiccup wiped his hand on his discarded t-shirt and climbed up on the bed with her.
"Most people want to see you perform oral on anyone with a penis, but it's worth knowing in advance how long your partner lasts and how fast they can recover so you can time the show around that. If they don't last that long and can recover within about fifteen or twenty minutes, then you can make them come first and have them go down on you to pass the time. Otherwise, skip it or don't spend too long, or make sure they're gonna get a break to calm down."
She'd been lucky with Eret in that regard - he could last as long as she needed, and even if he didn't, he naturally recovered in only a few minutes. Hiccup took a little longer to get it up again, but he'd never had much trouble lasting for her. Especially after ten years of very regular practice.
Astrid turned her head and closed her lips around Hiccup's cock, gripping the base as her tongue flicked across the head to make him groan. He managed to make a few comments about angles and engagement before he was too distracted by Astrid deepthroating him, smirking around his cock when his hips flexed in response. Hiccup cradled the back of her head, moaning softly as Astrid sucked him lazily, not wanting to get him too wound up before they moved on to the longer part of their (very fun) educational video. She reluctantly pulled off him, wishing they could just focus on the fun but technically they were working.
"Now, this is my personal favourite position. Some positions are better for the camera, but you should also make sure to throw in some that you genuinely enjoy. And if you're the star, cowgirl is an excellent position for lots of movement. And remember, always use condoms. We're married and get tested regularly, but I use protection with anybody else I perform with."
Hiccup was also quite a fan of Astrid on top of him, squeezing the soft skin of her hip with one hand while the other held his cock up so Astrid could seat herself. She settled against his thighs as his other hand settled on her hip, her hands resting on his chest. Hiccup's gaze followed her body as Astrid began to ride him, shifting to find the best angle before she ground herself down on him harder. She did ham up the movement a little more than she usually would for demonstration purposes, though Hiccup certainly wasn't complaining as her breasts bounced in time with her motions.
They shifted fluidly to the next position, Hiccup behind her as they faced the camera. Astrid sighed happily as he pressed back in, felt him roam her body with his hands as he told the camera about ensuring they weren't too mechanical during sex - if their partner liked to be touched somewhere, then it was best to keep touching them. Hiccup squeezed her breast, tugged her nipple as he knew Astrid liked and she moaned in response. A few slaps against her ass were both fun and educational too, as Hiccup mentioned spacing out the spanking (if the person getting spanked was in to it), so it would enhance pleasure rather than simply become painful.
Hiro moved behind them, getting a close up of the way Astrid pressed her arms and face down on the bed, Hiccup curled over her back as he thrusted down. The angle was awesome for G-spot stimulation, and Hiccup made sure to mix that with clitoral stimulation, arm wrapped under her stomach so his fingers could stroke her. Astrid's fingers tightened in the bedsheets, her cries muffled by the position as Hiccup lifted up and gripped her hips tighter, quickened his pace until Astrid began to shudder under him. Her legs trembled, body kept upright only by Hiccup's hold on her as she climaxed.
Hiccup came inside her with a low groan, nails digging in to her hips briefly as his thrusts slowed to a stop. He pulled out so Hiro could get a close up as his come dripped out of her, before Hiccup leant over to help Astrid roll on to her back. She gave him a satisfied smile, leaning up to meet him when Hiccup moved to kiss her. Astrid wrapped her arms around his neck so he could lift her to a seated position, Hiro moving around to get them both in shot again once they were facing forward.
"Unless you're doing a specific cream-pie shot, then most people are more in to the pull-out shots because they're more visual."
Astrid said, thankful Hiccup picked up for her on the technical side.
"So again, condoms. Our company can send you a bulk order of condoms if you're running low or having trouble finding the right size or material for anyone allergic to latex. We can also help if you need access to cheap or free birth control pills, but it's best to be seen by a doctor if you're taking medication or have health concerns. We know sex work is often the most accessible work for disabled people, so if you contact us for help then make sure you mention any pre-existing conditions. And as always, if you have any questions, get in touch!"
And with that, they were done with the video. Hiro was just the camera guy for now, and so once he'd put the camera down and pocketed his almost-empty bag of gummy bears, he pulled a lollipop from another pocket and unwrapped it.
"Am I good to go?"
"Yeah. I'll drop you a message when the video has been uploaded so you can see your handiwork, and let you know when we'll need you again. Thanks again Hiro."
"Catch you later!"
Hiro let himself out with his lolly in his mouth, leaving Hiccup and Astrid alone. They were pretty used to lounging around naked with someone else in the room by then, and Astrid barely even thought about it.
"I know how diligent you are about peeing after sex, so the bathroom is all yours milady."
Astrid kissed her lovely husband, then headed to the bathroom to clean up. They were heading home afterwards, but if she showered now they could just go straight to lazing around in pyjamas when they got back home.
Hiccup had changed the bedsheets when she came out to swap places, so Astrid got herself dressed and perched herself on the end of the bed to wait for him to shower. After a few minutes, she got up to check her phone, wondering what the time was and Hiccup's watch was probably in the pocket of the jeans he'd taken in to the bathroom to put on. She realised with a grumble that it was dead, turning around to scan the room. There on the side lay Hiccup's phone next to the laptop he'd already turned off. Astrid picked it up and tapped the button on the side to make it light up, seeing the time she'd been after along the top.
His screen-saver was a slideshow of photos, and Astrid watched them cycle through a couple of times before she felt arms slide around her waist, Hiccup's chin resting on her shoulder.
"All my favourite photos. Well, all my favourites that are fit for public consumption."
Astrid chuckled, then leant in to his chest as they watched the slideshow together. There were photos of Toothless, of Hiccup's parents, and then a couple of Astrid when she was pregnant, the first photo he took after they brought Kara home from the hospital. A couple of silly photos taken with friends, and then it cycled back to the start which was a fairly recent photo of Astrid and Kara, their cheeks smushed together to make a comical face for Hiccup's picture.
"Ready to head home?"
"Yeah. What's for dinner?"
Astrid asked, making Hiccup chuckle as he sat down to put his boots on. His skills in bed were amazing, but Astrid also fully appreciated her husband's culinary skills too. They headed home, changed in to their comfies for lounging around the house and Astrid tidied up some stray toys while Hiccup headed in to the kitchen. Steak - done just the way she liked it! - and vegetables were followed by some soft, fluffy cake, leaving Astrid feeling simultaneously replenished and ready for bed. They had a bedtime phone call with Kara, who chattered away about her day and then enthused about the trip she and Valka were going on tomorrow to the theme park.
"Remember to go easy on the sweets little lady, or you'll puke on the rides again."
"Daaaaad!"
Kara whined petulantly, making her parents and grandmother laugh. Once they'd bade her a good nights rest, Hiccup made them both hot chocolate and they sat out in the garden to enjoy the view of night falling, stars beginning to twinkle in the sky above them. Astrid yawned, and Hiccup joked that she wasn't far off sharing their five year old daughter's bedtime as they headed in. He answered a couple of work emails on his phone while Astrid was applying her various creams before bed, before the two snuggled under the covers and Astrid was fast asleep within minutes.
Hiccup spent the morning in their garden while Astrid hit their home gym, getting in a good session with her weights and a few miles on the treadmill. She preferred actually running outside, but the treadmill was good enough when she only wanted a shorter run. Once Astrid had rinsed the sweat off and there was no longer soil in Hiccup's hair, the couple headed out for lunch. They pulled up outside a pub with a ludicrously bright green sign that simply said "BERSERK" across it, and headed in.
"Astrid! Hiccup!"
The voice (and volume) was unmistakeable, and they had barely gotten in through the door before there was a solid mass hitting them both around chest level.
"Hey Dagur."
He stepped back, grinning widely. Dagur had retired from streaming a few years back, and now worked running his own pub. It was often rowdy and had the occasional brawl, but everyone who worked for Dagur was built like a tank, so they had little trouble ejecting anybody who ruined other people's fun. They were still good friends, and Dagur had his place in their sex-workers network - he offered a safe house for anyone who needed to escape an abusive partner in the flats up above the pub, and once a month he hosted a games night/get together where people could discuss their job and hang out with no judgement.
"It's been way too long since you guys came to see me! You want the usual? Berserk burgers, extra cheese?"
Hiccup looked to Astrid, who nodded her agreement before he turned back to Dagur.
"Sounds great. No alcohol for me though, I'm driving."
"You got it! There's a table over there, make yourselves comfortable."
They were early enough that the lunch rush hadn't quite picked up yet, and Dagur's pub did take-out service anyway, which most people opted for at lunch. They'd not been sat down long before Dagur had had starters and drinks sent out - a bottle of beer for Astrid to go with her usual order of crispy chicken bites, while Hiccup had coke and mozzarella sticks. It wasn't technically part of his job, but Dagur brought out their burgers when they were cooked, then pulled up the nearest chair and plopped down next to them.
"We didn't even order starters."
Hiccup joked, knowing full well Dagur always sent them their usual order unless they asked in advance for something else.
"I know you so well! So, how's things? How's the mini Astrid?"
"Kara? She's great. Staying at my mom's for the weekend. I expect she's currently stuffing her face with sweets she'll regret later, because my mom spoils her rotten."
Astrid could only nod and hum along while she chewed on the huge burger, though she did throw a chip at Hiccup when she could speak again.
"What was that for?"
"Acting like you don't spoil her rotten too."
"So do you. Everybody does. She's got half the world wrapped round her little finger."
Well, Astrid couldn't argue with that. Someone called out to Dagur from the kitchen, which had him jumping up out of his seat.
"I better go see what they want. Holler if you need anything! Hey, Savage? Their food and drinks are on the house."
He informed the guy behind the bar, who glanced over before nodding as a red-headed blur passed him.
"Still got all that energy he had when you guys worked together huh?"
Hiccup asked, and Astrid nodded with a laugh.
"He's short, all that fuel he didn't put in to growing went in to body building and superhuman speed."
They lapsed in to silence to work on eating, the lunch rush starting to pick up a little by the time they were moving on to dessert. Astrid swigged from her second bottle of beer, then glanced around.
"Sometimes I wonder if my wild days are behind me now, and then I look at our friends and think yeah, maybe not."
Hiccup chuckled, using his fork to cut off a bite of cheesecake.
"I'd still love you even if you totally mellowed out, I promise. But given that you got me a reverse gangbang for my thirtieth birthday... I'm not all that worried anyway."
Astrid laughed, nodding.
"Yeah. Well, I had to one up you after what you gave me for my thirtieth! I couldn't even walk!"
She had very fond memories of that particular night, letting her mind wander back to when Hiccup had set up for her to get fucked by both Eret and Jack - he'd been over in England with Heather and Elsa, meeting Heather's family. The girls had had a night to themselves, and Jack had happily turned up to give Astrid an absolutely incredible night. Hiccup had been there, filming it, though the video was not one for the whole world to see - Jack and Eret got copies, but otherwise it stayed in Astrid's private stash.
"And there was that time in America we got caught having sex on the balcony."
"Yeah. I wonder how many people would have been watching if not for Anna spotting us and cheering us on. Reminds me of your standing ovation when I did that show at Mala's club."
"Exactly. Yeah, we have quieter jobs and a home and Kara, we've definitely settled down. Doesn't mean our days are boring now."
Hiccup smiled as he spoke, and Astrid found herself grinning along with him. He was definitely right.
"Yeah. Though I'm never doing full body paint again. Takes too long to shave every inch and then clean the paint off after."
They chatted with Dagur after they were done eating, and then headed out to do some window-shopping while their massive lunch settled. After they got back home, Astrid changed in to one of Hiccup's t-shirts and a pair of comfy briefs, then stretched out on the sofa while Hiccup went to get his laptop so they could work through some admin and have their scheduled video-calls with members of the network.
"Eret's busy, but he sent us an e-mail. Aww, him and Ryder look so happy. And look how big that reindeer is!"
Astrid craned her neck to see the photo attached to Eret's email, then flopped back down as Hiccup read out the e-mail to her, laughing when he reached the end.
"What?"
"He asked, and I'm quoting here, 'is Astrid knocked up again yet?'. Guess he's keen to be uncle Eret again."
"Yeah, well, he can get pregnant, then he can deal with the morning sickness, sore boobs and take two months off work."
Hiccup chuckled as he tapped out an answer, then moved on to the rest of his inbox.
"Oh, message from Merida. She wants you to know the fleshlight model of you is selling very well. And the replica of Eret is a big hit, pun intended."
Astrid rolled her eyes, completely able to picture the fiery redhead saying those words, complete with the thick Scottish accent life in America had done nothing to soften. She'd been the one to get Astrid hooked up with toy sponsors in America to begin with, and she was part of the team actually running that same toy company now. She was also the only other person to have one of the 'Hiccup' cock replica toys - Astrid felt it was unfair to deny everyone that pleasure, but Hiccup wasn't willing to have his penis put out on shelves.
"She also said she hopes you guys can toy test together again soon. And sent a photo."
Unlike Eret's sweet boyfriend photo, Merida had sent a rather more explicit one, a close up of her apparently testing out the companies latest model. Even without her face being in clear view, there was no mistaking those red curls. Hiccup answered a couple more e-mails before there was the trilling alert of an incoming video call, and so Astrid dramatically sighed before sitting up properly. At least it was someone important.
"Hey Heather!"
"Astrid! Ah, it's so good to see your face!"
With her friend now living permanently in America, they didn't see each other in person nearly as much as Astrid would have liked. But they chatted over video call regularly, and Heather made sure to come back at least twice a year so their kids could see each other. (Amongst... other reasons the kids didn't need to know about.)
"You too! How are things over there?"
"Busy! Before I forget, I'm sending you a copy of my latest movie. If you have company or other things to do today, I recommend waiting until Hiccup is available to be jumped on, cus it's pretty damn hot. I may be biased cus it's me and my two partners... nah, it's just damn hot."
Well, now Astrid was intrigued. And excited. And very thankful Heather had waited until Kara was away for the weekend to send her a new clip. Their network helped distribute Heather's work over in the UK, so they got early access. Which meant she and Hiccup had regular 'movie nights' where they watched porn starring people they knew until Astrid had to climb on top of her husband.
"Ugh, you're such a tease!"
"You love it. Anyway, it'll take at least a few minutes to download. So let's catch up!"
Already a little distracted by anticipation, Astrid dragged her mind out of the gutter for a minute so she and Heather could chat. They exchanged stories about their kids and day-to-day life, and Heather jokingly complained that she missed Hiccup making her tea after a long scene.
"It's your fault you left the country! Maybe you should develop teleportation, I can make tea and beam it over there."
"I'll get right on that!"
The video had finished downloading before they were done, but Hiccup very rudely wouldn't let Astrid watch it right away! She relented only when Hiccup pointed out that they had a video call with Mala booked in.
"Mala wouldn't mind if we answered while fucking."
"True, but it would slow down the admin side of things."
Astrid pouted.
"Oh, you look so much like Kara when you do that."
Hiccup laughed before he leant over and kissed her until the pout faded. She considered stealing the laptop to get the video, but Hiccup was wise to her schemes and pinned her hand before she could.
"Spoilsport."
"No. Just want to be able to take my time with you when we're done with work."
Well, that was good enough reason, Astrid supposed. It didn't really help her being horny now, but she could wait. A little bit. She wasn't kept waiting too long before Mala's video call request popped up, and Astrid grinned at the sight of the tall Australian woman, the backdrop clearly her office in the strip club she ran. Astrid had been quite thoroughly fucked over the desk that laptop was resting on by Mala last time they were in America... nope, her mind was never getting out of the gutter now.
"Don't mind Astrid, Heather sent us her latest movie and she's very impatient to get to the watching."
Mala let out a short chuckle as she watched Astrid squirm.
"Oh, she is always very impatient. That is why we had to tie her down for the scene we did together."
Astrid whined. That was very unfair to bring up! Though she did enjoy the mental images - Mala had tied her up and left her on the bed to watch while she had her way with Astrid's very willing husband. Even Hiccup was limping after Mala was done with him. And if that wasn't enough, once Mala felt Astrid had been tortured enough, she untied her and then used a strap-on and Hiccup to double-team Astrid until she was a drooling mess on the bed.
"Yeah. That scene was very popular, although I'm not surprised."
They caught up a little on life, talked business some more and then Mala decided Astrid wasn't quite wound up enough, as she took her laptop over to the balcony and flipped the camera view, displaying the scene going on below. Astrid recognised the one working a pole as her friend Rae, apparently still a spectacular dancer. On a different stage, there was a woman with long, thick blonde hair riding a guy, her large breasts only kept still by his hands gripping tight.
"So, I see you're keeping yourself entertained over there?"
Hiccup asked when Mala had returned to her desk and flipped the camera back.
"I always do. I will be sending you an updated list of clinics to add to your American advice page in the next few days. I am just waiting to hear back from two people about their experiences before I finalise it."
"Sounds good. Well, I'd love to chat more but I think Astrid's close to biting me."
"The last time I checked, you like that."
Mala quipped back, but she did let them sign off the call soon after.
"If you let me finish answering these messages, I'll bring the laptop back to our room and cast it to our TV."
Astrid reluctantly agreed, waiting not-so-patiently for him to finish. Personally, she felt that not picking Hiccup up and carrying him to their bed over her shoulder showed great willpower. He relayed a message from Anna and Kristoff about how well their shows were doing, and that the two had set a date for their wedding which Hiccup and Astrid (and Kara) were of course invited to. Then finally, he was ready to let Astrid watch the new video.
She leapt on to their bed while Hiccup was setting up the cast, twitching with excitement. The video loaded up and filled their TV screen, and Hiccup very wisely joined Astrid on the bed to watch it with her.
The premise was a touch corny, but most porn was, and it wasn't enough to dull the clear and real chemistry between the three performers. 'Queen' Elsa was offering Jack as a gift to 'Queen' Heather, though the politics of such a thing were skimmed over completely. Astrid didn't mind. Heather and Elsa agreed to share the young man, who clearly had no complaints about that fact as they led him to an enormous, very regal-looking bed. His clothes were soon torn off of him, exposing his cock. He was only half-hard, but it was still clear that he was well above average size as Heather pushed him down on to the bed.
Elsa climbed up to straddle his face while Heather began to suck him off, Jack soon reaching full size under her ardent attentions. They marvelled at the size of him (though Astrid doubted that either of his long-term girlfriends were truly surprised) and took turns sucking his cock, before Heather straddled his face while Elsa started riding him. Heather calling it 'damn hot' didn't do it justice, frankly. Astrid turned to Hiccup, her breath coming in short pants.
"When we next go to America, we're gonna have to find a babysitter. Or soundproof their room."
"Oh? Why's that?"
"Because the five of us are going to absolutely destroy that bed. We're all gonna get messy and sloppy with oral, and then you and Jack are going to fuck me stupid while Elsa and Heather... do whatever they want to me. I'll be too braindead to care by then. Then they can take turns having their brains fucked out by you two."
Those images of the five of them were clear in her mind as Astrid clambered on top of Hiccup, tugging down his shorts and pushing her underwear aside so she could get him inside her faster. He groaned against her mouth as she kissed him hungrily, Heather and Elsa's moans still filling the air as the porno kept playing. Astrid's soon joined them as she rode Hiccup in earnest, though she slowed just long enough to help him strip off the t-shirt she had on. Hiccup reached up to play with her breasts, pushing Astrid closer until she shuddered through her first climax.
It only just took the edge off, if she was honest. Hiccup gripped her hips and turned them over, hushing Astrid when she whined in protest as he pulled out. Her briefs were pulled down and tossed aside, before Hiccup began stroking her legs, kissing playfully at one of her ankles.
"I told you, I want to take my time. I just thought you'd be less likely to break something if I let you get off first."
He was certainly in no rush, kissing and caressing her from ankle to knee before he moved on to her thighs. Astrid groaned as he skipped over where she needed him, instead moving up to her torso.
"I've always loved your body, but pregnancy definitely made you hotter. Your hips, your stomach... and yes, these too."
Hiccup splayed one hand over her left breast, head dropping to her right one so he could lick and suck at her nipple. Astrid's hands clutched his head, hips wriggling under his weight. He continued to explore her, stroking the soft part of her belly that had never firmed up after she had Kara - ten years ago, Astrid might have cared about that, but now she was simply proud her body had carried and birthed their daughter. Hiccup adored it too, kissing over the soft skin before he moved down at last. Her fingers tightened in his hair as Hiccup dragged his tongue over her clit, tracing lazy shapes around it to make her pant and writhe.
"Hiiiiiccup!"
She protested his slow torture, but Hiccup would not be hurried. He coaxed every sound and shudder possible out of her, drawing back whenever Astrid showed signs of getting close to coming again. When he finally took her over the edge, Astrid's back arched clean off the bed, thighs locked tight around his head. Hiccup kept going, dragging it out until she slumped back to the bed, gasping for breath as Hiccup pried her legs off him to get some air for himself.
He'd barely let her come down before he was moving again, lips wet with her pressed to Astrid's own as Hiccup folded her legs up and settled between them, leaving her almost bent in half under him. It let Hiccup slide deep, her mewls of delight vibrating against his mouth as he filled her. She could still hear the movie playing in the background, but her attention was all on Hiccup as he began to thrust, moving slowly, taking his time and watching her every response.
"Love you."
He murmured against her cheek, panting softly in her ear when Astrid wrapped her arms around his shoulders. Her body had calmed a little, letting Hiccup set the pace for them both as he rocked in to her.
"Love you too."
Astrid managed to say it back, nails digging in to his back when she clutched him tighter. He pulled back when Astrid changed tack, pushing at his shoulder.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Just wanna be on top."
He chuckled.
"Don't you always?"
Astrid winked and shifted her legs so she could roll them over and sit up straighter. Hiccup settled his hands against her thighs and let Astrid do the work, her muscles flexing under his hands as she moved. She loved to watch him under her, the way his pleasure showed on his face, his chest heaving as his breathing grew heavier. The sapphires in his ring sparkled when they caught the light, his eyes lighting up much the same when they met hers and the two shared a breathless smile.
Their final climax wasn't explosive, but a long, lasting glow that seemed to wash over Astrid in slow waves as they tumbled down to the bed together, damp with sweat as they laid on their sides to look at one another. Hiccup raised his hand so he could stroke her cheek with his thumb, smiling when Astrid hummed happily.
"I'm so very glad you dragged me in to the world of sex on live stream."
Not the usual choice of romantic sentiments, but Astrid felt her heart flutter happily. If she hadn't, then they might never have ended up together, those nights he joined her on camera the first steps beyond them just being best friends. Astrid leant forward and kissed him softly.
"Me too."
