10 fics where dagur is a good guy :)
1. A Night of Surprises by evilwriter37
2,584 words | 1/1 chapters | rated M | Gen
Hiccup wakes up trapped in the trunk of a car. He is utterly shocked when he learns who kidnapped him, and his rescue might be even more surprising.
2. As I Please by Emachinescat
Part 31 of AILESS Whumptober 2025 | 2,567 words | 1/1 chapters | rated T | Gen, M/M
"You do not give the orders on my ship," Viggo hissed. "You are my prisoner, to do with as I please. If I want to touch you, I will touch you. If I want to sell you, I will sell you. If I want to hurt you, I will hurt you." He increased the pressure on the knife the tiniest bit; Hiccup gasped in pain as the skin broke. "And if I decide I want to keep you, all for myself, well. Then I will keep you."
Gold Rush AU in which Viggo takes advantage of his time alone with Hiccup while he waits for the remaining riders to fall into his trap.
Written for AILESS Whumptober Day 31: Knife to the Throat

Part 10 of Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Hurt | 2,854 words | 1/1 Chapters | rated G | M/M
In a moment of panic and anger, a reformed Dagur lashes out and accidentally hurts Hiccup, shattering the trust and comradery he's worked so hard to maintain with his former enemy. AU of Sins of the Past.
Prompt: redeemed Dagur relapse, Dagcup
5. Lacking Angel Kisses by fallenStar_cygnus
2,349 words | 1/1 chapters | rated G | Gen
Hiccup has had an abundance of freckles ever since he was small- uh- smaller. However, as time marched on, they'd faded away under the harsh bites of Berk's perpetual winters.
His long distance... acquaintance now.. mourns the loss. Vocally.
[written better than the summary suggests]
6. Midnight Scrum: Over the Edge by SixtyFourSquares
16,123 words | 9/? chapters | rated T | Gen
Midnight Scrum Retelling. Refusing to let Ryker cheat him of his "merchandise," Krogan drags Hiccup with him off the cliff.
7. Peace-Child by Anonymous
14,634 words | 3/3 chapters | rated G | F/M
Hiccup didn’t think twice about being called and answering to brother when Dagur and Heather called. In hindsight, though, he probably should have been a bit more careful about it. Not everyone had the luxury of knowing all that history.
Scratch that: he really should have been more careful with that, because now he was fairly certain the bounty hunter chasing him had called him Egilson spawn.
Which, to be clear, an Egilson he was not. Haddock, yes. Third in a series of three and counting, might he add. Egilson? Not on that bounty hunter’s life.
(In which Hiccup learns the truth about where he came from.)
8. Protecting Him by ForeverMoreEight
18,411 words | 7/7 chapters | rated T | F/M, Gen
Toothless is chill. Until someone messes with Hiccup.
Then it’s claws out, fangs bared, and don’t even think about it.
Five times Toothless said “absolutely not” to other people hurting Hiccup (even playfully), and one time he said it to himself.
Because being a loyal dragon is hard, especially when your human insists on getting into trouble, kissing girls, and nearly dying. Again.
Otherwise known as, five times he stood between Hiccup and the world… and one time he stood between Hiccup and himself.
9. tell me that i've gotta clench to stay awake by dylacola
Part 7 of dylacola's whumptober 2025 | 2,508 words | 1/1 chapters | rated T | Gen
Written for Whumptober day 7: Trapped with the Enemy. Title taken from Clench To Stay Awake by The Garden.
Hiccup stares at him, and as Dagur stares back, he stops seeing fear in his brother’s eyes. In fact, he stops seeing anything at all, just a green haze of nothing, and it finally clicks.
For whatever reason – he dreads to think what – Hiccup is not in the present right now.
10. Son of Suffering by Anonymous
42,878 words | 10/? chapters | rated T | F/M
Hiccup had gone missing from the Edge two weeks ago: he went out on a patrol, said he’d be back in an hour or two, and that was the last anyone had seen of him. Toothless was found with a twisted, tattered wing on a scrap of a sea stack a day later, screaming with what was left of his roar. Astrid tried not to let herself be overtaken by terror, but it was there all the same. Hiccup had made powerful enemies: he had a freakish knack for that as well. Those enemies had armadas at their command, weapons that could shoot their dragons out of the sky, cages that no beast could melt. Hiccup was a valuable prize indeed to anyone who was an enemy of dragons.
(In which Hiccup is taken by an enemy the gang has never faced before. Waking him up isn’t the end to their problems, but only the beginning.)

Yay, new regular blog content!! Instead of Masterlist Monday, I decided to do List Ten Tuesday, where every Tuesday, I'll rec 10 fics (some other people's, some my own) based around a randomly selected theme! Some broader themes will have multiple parts because I have so many fics to rec for them. And all 10 fics will be randomly selected from a Masterlist of that theme. I'm still going to do my regular Fic Rec Friday and Self-Rec Saturday, so you may see some of the fics listed here again on them or on another list!
