"Something About Him"

(Explicit)

4k Words

Summary: Dagur’s recklessness is getting out of control. Ryker wants to talk some sense into him, though the conversation goes a bit differently than he planned.

Inspired by this 😳

here's a little preview:

As Dagur also rose and turned to leave, Ryker found himself becoming agitated. The Berserker had been little but a pain in his backside since he joined the hunters, and yet…every time the idiot put himself in danger, Ryker was overcome not with annoyance, (or rather, not just with annoyance) but with a surprising amount of concern. He was struck not only by the possibility of losing a good fighter, but by something much more visceral…fear. On the most recent excursion, Dagur had nearly been set ablaze after taunting an ornery Monstrous Nightmare. Unable to stop himself, Ryker yelled out his name with much more panic in his voice than he anticipated. He’d had to grab Dagur and pull him back to avoid incineration. Heather managed to scare the beast away before it could make a second attack, but Ryker stood with his arms around Dagur for several moments longer than necessary, panting and frozen from shock and anger. And of course after the little shit got over the initial terror of being nearly roasted alive, he had to go and make some stupid comment about the situation.

Dagur squirmed about, rubbing his body against Ryker’s. “Huh…something’s sticking into my back. Is that a knife in your pocket, Rykie, or are you just happy to—whoa!”

Ryker had shoved him away so suddenly, the Berserker nearly fell to the ground. 

“Next time you pull a stunt like that, I’ll let the dragon have you!”

Dagur scowled in response as he stumbled to his feet, but upon noticing the flush in Ryker’s cheeks, he went into a fit of giggling. Gods, he was such a little bastard! 

the first thought i had was that ryker and dagur would get together first - it makes sense, seeing as ryker and dagur spend a lot more time together than dagur and viggo do. i can also see ryker begrudgingly getting close to dagur...maybe not being in love but definitely having affection for him - and then viggo seeing that and suddenly his desire for dagur pretty much coming out of a desire to take something away from his brother. it would make ryker so upset because why cant viggo just let him have ONE GODSDAMNED THING FOR HIMSELF? and viggo would be a smug prick about it.

but on the other hand...i think it would be very funny for ryker to get with dagur after viggo did as an act of rebellion. like viggos always belittling him so he gets a little revenge but then oh shit why does he kind of like this ridiculous, annoying man? why is he growing on him? and viggo would be like i order you to stop sleeping with dagur, he's mine, and rykers like....mmm nah, dont think so.

i think either way dagur would love the attention and try to break up their fights like "boys, boys youre both pretty" and theyd go shut up dagur this isnt about you- and then he's deeply offended like "what do you mean its not about me? how is it not about me???"

like yes they both desire dagur but a lot of it is just using him an extension of their sibling rivalry

My blog is mostly about the HTTYD film and TV franchise, though I sometimes post about other works and topics related to fantasy, sci fi, animation, horror, history, art, and writing.
