Nobody really reviews this so I'm always running out of things to say in the authors note...
Oh, I know! With RTTE S5 upcoming, it reminded me of a huge bug bear of mine. In Race To The Edge, with all the Dragon Hunters stealing dragons... surely there could be even a little mention of some Dragon Thief breaking stuff up. I can't imagine Valka ignoring it all! Come on DreamWorks!
-HTTYD-
With the evolution of the sexual relationship between Astrid and her mother in law, there were so many new ways three could come together. Hiccup reveled in the fact the two women were now into each other, loving that he no longer felt like someone selfishly bedding two women.
Astrid's current favourite thing was absolutely the double-teaming. Valka was currently leant against Hiccup's chest, his cock buried in her ass while Astrid knelt in front of them both with her fingers dipping inside her, rubbing at the older womans clit. Both women liked to watch their partner fall apart in pleasure, making for a constant race to bring each other off first.
Hiccup was just along for the ride sometimes. Others, Astrid and Valka would gang up on him, both equally keen to pleasure their male lover.
Valka reached for Astrid where she was in front of her, biting at her lip in desperation to kiss her hungrily. Astrid allowed it, using her free hand to toy with a nipple or squeeze her breast, the mound pleasantly yielding to her hand. The multitude of sensations from Astrid's fingers on her clit, Hiccup's cock in her ass and both their mouths on her neck soon completely overwhelmed Valka, sending her spiralling into a powerful climax between them.
Hiccup slowed his thrusts, holding his mother through the peak as she soaked Astrid's hand, nails gripping her shoulder as she quaked. Eventually, she leant back against Hiccup, pliant and lax but rolling her hips lazily to indicate Hiccup should finish. Astrid appreciated the view, watching his thick length press up into his mother over and over. Hiccup bit his lip, muscles tensing as he got close to coming.
"Thor, you're so tight mom."
"Mmm."
Valka still hadn't found her voice, but she continued to moan softly as Hiccup filled her, letting out a sinful sound of elation as he came inside her. Astrid watched her face, the resemblance to Hiccup uncanny when they were in the throes of passion.
"Don't forget to breathe."
Hiccup reminded her, carefully easing her off his softening cock and she all but fell across the bed, lax and sated as she reached for Hiccups face. He went willingly, kissing her deeply as she caressed his cheek.
"Astrid has been ever so patient, so I'm gonna repay her for it."
"Quite right to son."
Hiccup grinned, wiping himself down and handing his mother another damp rag to clean herself, then he advanced on Astrid with a predatory smirk. She found herself pressed down on the bed with his body pinning her, hungry mouth on hers. Hiccup kissed her thoroughly, leaving Astrid's head spinning while his lips journeyed down her body.
The first hot swipe of his tongue had Astrid's thighs falling even further open than Hiccup had parted them, aroused beyond belief by helping him bring Valka to a heady climax and now Astrid sought her own. Hiccup was a dedicated student when it came to oral sex, and Astrid was never short of the sight of his messy mop between her thighs, suckling lightly at her clit or making nonsense shapes with his tongue.
Astrid only noticed Valka had recovered when the elder Haddock kissed her, confident enough to play with Astrid's breasts with no concern for Astrid freaking out and gods it was good. Hiccup's tongue pushed inside her in an eerie sync with Valka's slipping into her mouth, fingers on her breast squeezing a nipple, hands on her ass lifting her closer to Hiccup's eager mouth.
It was torture, and Astrid loved every second as she thrashed and moaned and writhed like a wanton bar wench, dignity long gone when they both pleasured her so well.
She wasn't even sure Hiccup stopped to breathe, devouring her like he would never get another chance to taste her. Fingers pressed inside her as his tongue dragged across her clit, circling just below the tip to prevent Astrid getting too close, then going for the kill as he used the tip of his tongur to swirl the swollen bud until Astrid could take no more. Her back arched, moaning into Valka's mouth as the woman's son brought her off expertly, both pulling back with twin smirks as Astrid lay trembling on the bed.
Valka kissed Hiccup, humming in pleasure when she tasted Astrid on his lips and cupping a hand around his neck to keep him there until she was done enjoying it.
"You ok there milady?"
Astrid lifted her arm weakly, giving him a thumbs up.
"Actually I'm kinda thirsty... we got any mead in? And hungry... ugh, I have to get up now. Help?"
A chuckling Hiccup helped Astrid sit up, quivering when he blatantly ogled her bare body. Even just his eyes could make her squirm.
"Who took my clothes off? I forgot, and I demand whichever one of you it was find them."
Now they were both laughing, attempting to work out who owned what from the chaos of three sets of clothes scattered across the room. Hiccup found his tunic first, Astrid's vest beneath it. Her skirt was the other end of the room, untangled from Valka's yellow top eventually. They tended to lose track in a threeway race for bare skin.
"I had leggings on when I came in here, I'm sure."
Hiccup's metal leg clunked on the floor as he searched, eventually locating his bottoms under one of the bedfurs that had been pushed off at some point. Her breast binding was hanging off the end of the bed frame, but Astrid didn't need it to go and obtain food and drink, especially if they didn't need to go to the Great Hall.
Their dragons gave them the look, the one that said the humans mating had been loud and disruptive to their naps. Astrid tossed them all some cod as she foraged in the food supply, eventually located already-cooked yak pies that only needed warming. Sitting down, Astrid was struck by a strange and intrusive thought.
"Hey, when was the last new moon?"
Hiccup looked up from where he was trying to fight his mother for the mead bottle she was playfully withholding from him, calculating in his head.
"It'll be two weeks tomorrow, why?"
Astrid held up a hand, counting in her own head. Both intrigued, Hiccup and Valka watched her curiously.
"What is it Astrid?"
Numbers tallied, she turned to them properly.
"I'm a week late."
Both sets of eyes widened at her, making for a strange moment when everyone wanted to see if the prospect was welcome or not. Hiccup bit his lip, scaring Astrid with his pensive face.
"Well, its been way too long since the wedding for it to be then... do you think we missed a day with your tea or it just failed?"
Starting to grow nervous, Astrid shrugged.
"No clue."
Hiccup seemed to have an epiphany, immediately making his way to his wife. Astrid felt him cup her chin, guiding her to look up at him.
"I just realised you were worried I wasn't happy. Honestly? I'm thrilled. I just worry that if the tea failed for you, that could mean I'm at risk of getting mom pregnant and that would be much harder to explain."
That... that actually made a lot of sense to Astrid, nerves soothed.
"Don't count your yaks yet babe, I could just be late."
He blinked, but kissed her anyway.
"Mom can take you to see Gothi if you want, I've got a wedding to officiate in the morning or I would."
Astrid turned to Valka, who nidded with a smile.
"I'd be happy to."
"Ok, lets do that. For now, my yak pies are burning."
Hiccup kissed her nose, then stepped aside to finish fighting his mother for the mead bottle. Astrid only half-paid attention, the prospect of a possible baby inside her a little scary. Then there was the second concern - if the preventative tea did fail, Valka could absolutely fall pregnant by her own son. She still got her monthly cycle despite her age, so she was still fertile.
The three retired to bed together, sharing only kisses and light touches before slumber took them. The morning brought playful groping and Astrid had barely moved before two sets of hands had successfully teased the first orgasm of the day from her.
"Not that I really mind, but it's not easy to get up for a pee on shaking legs."
Hiccup, currently trying to attach his prosthetic while half asleep, grinned.
"I'll see your shaky legs and raise you stiff metal leg plus morning wood."
Astrid rolled out of bed, trading spots in the bathroom with Valka while Hiccup paced up and down, trying to work out the ache in his half a leg. It was hard to feel bad when she came out, seeing his morning erection jut out proudly.
"All yours babe."
"Thanks. Someone go make sure the fire is on while I get ready? I'll sort breakfast after."
He limped to the bathroom as Astrid dressed quickly, tingles running down her spine when Valka helped braid her hair, warm fingers brushing her scalp. The three shared a quick breakfast, then Hiccup had to put on his chiefs cloak, taking kisses from both women happily before he turned and left with Toothless.
Valka kissed Astrid first, soft and soothing before squeezing her hand.
"Ready to go find out if you're going to be a mother?"
"How do you feel about that?"
Valka furrowed her brow in thought, reminding Astrid so strongly of Hiccup.
"I think it may have me feeling guilty about missing Hiccup's life, but-"
"But if you had, we wouldn't be... what we are now. It happened for a reason, and Hiccup forgave you the minute he laid eyes on you."
"I suppose that's true. Whatever comes, I'm sure we will work through it. Shall we?"
"We shall."
Astrid hummed as Valka ran a finger down her neck, smiling as she won a reaction. They left for the healers, thankful for the wedding that meant half the village wasn't around to see. Astrid being escorted to the healer by her husbands mother would have suspicions and rumours of the pregnancy everyone wanted to happen running rife.
Gothi seemed to know what they were there for, peering into Astrid's mouth and prodding at her breasts, her stomach and most strangely, sniffing her. Valka reassured her these were all normal tests - she had gone through the same when pregnant with Hiccup.
Astrid couldn't imagine carrying a child, giving birth to one only to become romantically and sexually intimate with them as an adult. But she also couldn't imagine life without Valka with them.
The old woman peering up her skirt was a bit of a shock, almost falling off the stool until Valka steadied her.
"What the Thor is she looking for?"
She whispered the question to Valka as Gothi pottered off, tossing chicken bones across a table and oooh-ing to herself.
"Changes in the colour of your skin, or swelling from fresh blood flow. I think. I never learnt Gothi-speak very well."
Valka peered at where Gothi was scratching in the sand, squinting slightly as she tried to read the scribbles.
"When did you say you were due? A week ago?"
"A week ago yesterday now."
Gothi nodded, then scribbled in the dirt again.
"She wants you to urinate on the seeds, and she will tell you for sure the day after tomorrow. However, she's... very certain? That you are with child."
"She definitely said are? Not are not? I'm not doubting you, I just don't wanna disappoint Hiccup."
"Darling, he knows it's up to the gods. No matter what happens, he loves you."
Astrid nodded, looking down at her stomach and wondering if there was a baby growing within. Then there was a tiny, wizened old walnut of a woman shaking a tray of seeds at Astrid. She resolved to wait and see if she got fat in future potential pregnancies, trying to awkwardly squat privately in Gothi's hut in order to piss on a tray of seeds. Someone was gonna touch them, plant them and see what happened.
Well, it wasn't going to be her. She wiped herself up, then redressed and headed back out to Valka and Gothi.
"All done. Can I go?"
Gothi scrawled in response.
"She said to come back if you get any... satchels? Oh, symptoms."
Astrid made a hasty exit, checking nobody had seen her with the mad old bat with a stick as Valka walked her back to their home.
"I can't sit around waiting for Hiccup to come home, I'll go mad. So... I'm gonna go do some laundry and take a bath at the rock pools."
"Would you mind company?"
Valka probably needed to wash her clothes too, Astrid was reading too much into it.
"Come along. Cloudjumper won't fit in those caves, you realise?"
"I do. He can sunbathe."
Astrid nodded, tossing all her and Hiccup's laundry plus some of the more heavily soiled bed pelts into a sack, then grabbing a smaller one with her soap and fresh underthings. Valka was doing the same, so Astrid jotted a note down and left it on the table to tell Hiccup where they had gone, grabbed some yak jerky in case she got hungry and whistled for Stormfly.
"Cloudjumper? Fancy a trip?"
Her Stormcutter cooed as Valka stroked his head, nuzzling her hand. He might be enormous, but Astrid knew he was also a gentle giant. Clambering up on Stormfly with her laundry and wash stuff, they took off toward the rock pools slowly, enjoying the ride for a few minutes with their scaled friends.
"We'll go for a proper fly tomorrow Stormfly, promise. I'm sorry I've been neglecting you."
Checking, the caves were blissfully empty. Not that Astrid was ashamed of her body, nor especially shy about bathing, but it meant Valka was liable to be overly tactile and Astrid craved it shamelessly.
"Just gonna tie a clothesline across the cave mouth, give us a shout if anyone comes ok girl?"
Stormfly squawked in agreement, she and Cloudjumper settling down to enjoy the mid-morning sunshine as Astrid and Valka set about cleaning their clothing. Astrid quite enjoyed seeing their clothes all lined up together, bizarre as it sounded. Their triad was more domestic and easy than she had ever expected.
"Valka?"
"Yes Astrid?"
"What would you do if... you know, you were in my position today?"
Valka looked at her in confusion, then those doe eyes lit with understanding.
"Ah. I suppose I would accept the will of the gods, and find a way to disguise the growth as much as possible."
"Would you be happy?"
"I hadn't thought... but yes, I suppose I would be. Motherhood is an adventure I know very little of."
Astrid wrung out the pelt she was cleaning, laying it along the ground for the sun to warm.
"You know that you're in this too" Astrid placed a hand on her stomach "and I mean that literally."
Valka smiled, nodding.
"Thank you. That's quite the honour."
The woman embraced Astrid happily, rubbing her nose across Astrid's in that dragon-affection way that she did.
"I mean it. I know what we have is unusual, but you're part of it. Of us. Both... well, all of us."
"Thank you Astrid. Your love and acceptance continues to astound me."
"Well, its not entirely selfless. I can hardly say I get nothing out of it."
"But you weren't to know that at the start."
Valka let her go, but she was still smiling.
"I guess... hey, I have a question" Astrid started undressing, aching for a hot bath "when was it you wanted me as well as him?"
"Oh, very early on. Almost as soon as the ice thawed. You were always making Hiccup smile, and he always lit up when he made you smile in return. At first I thought it was an associative thing, but I soon realised it wasn't."
Valka's eyes watched her diminishing clothes with interest, starting on her own when Astrid was naked and heading for the pool she knew had a sort of ledge in the rock formation that allowed her to sit.
"Wow. I had no idea."
"Is it prying to ask you the same?"
Bare herself, Valka's miles of pale skin slid beneath the waters surface as she joined Astrid.
"It's kinda complicated. That time I first caught you and he... I felt something but I figured it was shock. Then I kept catching you, and it started to get to me. It wasn't a proper revelation until Snoggletog though, I was in denial before then."
Astrid reached for her soap, lathering it across her skin beneath the water quickly, functionally - she mostly wanted to relax in the heated water, cleaning was secondary.
"May I wash your hair for you?"
"Uh, sure?"
Astrid untied her braid, ducking her head beneath the water to wet and separate out her hair before resurfacing soaked through.
"Thank you. I confess I have quite the fascination for your hair."
"So does Hiccup. For your hair too, have you noticed he hides our ties?"
Valka chuckled as she worked a piece of shampoo solid across Astrid's scalp, dissolving it into bubbles before massaging them in with nimble fingers. It was lucky Astrid was half-seated, as the feeling was enough to make her knees weak.
"I have. I've started hiding spares everywhere, I fear he has no clue how uncontrollable and impractical long hair is while flying."
Astrid laughed, making a note to do the same.
"I think he knows, he just forgets when thinking with the little Hiccup."
"Mmm. Rinse dear."
Astrid shivered slightly as she climbed out of the pool, walking over to the running 'waterfall' nearby to effectively rinse her hair. It was a cold stream coming through a crack in the rock, which wouldn't matter if she weren't naked and flushed warm from the bath. It was glorious to return to the heated pool, vaguely sexual sounds leaving her mouth as she was enveloped in warmth.
"Cold?"
"Yep. Not moving until I wrinkle now. Even then I'll give strong thought to staying."
Fingers began to tease across her skin beneath the water, Valka waiting to be stopped as they were in a slightly more open space than their bedroom. Astrid felt secure enough with their dragon sentries, the clothesline and the fact most Vikings thought baths were overrated that she didn't stop her, instead enjoying the comforting familiarity the woman's touch was already starting to carry with her.

Think maybe i'm becoming a secret Valstrid shipper. Alongside Valcup. Or it may be that I love writing fluffy smut fics. Who knows? Ah well. Onward!
