#stef rambles

Sampo finding a pretty silver earring with a cute small aquamarine + sapphire pendant, really just a tiny + almost plain accessory, but all the more reminding him of Gepard, so ofc he has to get it + gift it to Geppie

and Gepard wears it every single day after that

everyone notices -bc since when does the Captain wear jewelry?- but no one dares to say a word

except Serval, who bluntly asks him who he got it from + as Gepard tries to stutter his way out of giving her a straight answer, face flushed, she just smirks + says "they have great taste, it suits you"

he just blushes harder + mumbles a shy "th-thank you" then

bonus:

this is how the conversation goes in the english translation

obv in english this can be chalked up to him just like… not knowing her name. but the reason he asks is because when aoi mentions sakura, she refers to her as sakura-chan and everyone else atp only knows her by her surname and MAYBE an honorific (or a flat out insult, thank u hiro hagakure)

Hey there, anon! I actually really like this connection here. 

I like this connection because I’ve always fully believed that when the Haddock men love…they love hard and they are in it for the long run. 

Below is my rambling analysis: 

Looking at Stoick, you could tell that Valka was the love of his life the way he’d talk about her and especially when he saw her again twenty years later. “You’re as beautiful as the day I lost you…” STOICK BRINGING ALL THE FEELS. Then you get to HTTYD3 and him telling Hiccup she was the love of his life…I’m still clutching my heart over that whole entire scene. 

Then you look at Hiccup who doesn’t really need to say all of these mushy things for you to know that he loves Astrid with everything he’s got. One look at that boy looking at her and you can see it in his eyes. You can see it in their interactions. But still, I’m mentioning the show because some of the things he told Astrid in RTTE made me melt…still makes me melt to this day. “There will always be a Hiccup and Astrid. Always. Whatever that means, whatever you want it to mean. I am with you.” *wipes away the flow of tears* AND THEN YOU GET THIS SCENE IN THE IMAGE BELOW. (I really should do an analysis on this moment). 

You can even look at this from a non-romantic point-of-view by looking at Toothless/Hiccup’s relationship and beautiful friendship. Toothless loves Hiccup and Hiccup loves Toothless. It shows in every interaction they have. Every time the other has saved the other. It shows in how well they know one another. It shows in that damn hug at the end of httyd3. That love in that friendship is forever even from afar.  

And I loved getting to see Toothless and his interaction with the Light Fury as well. It was love at first sight for that dorky dragon. And just like the Haddock men, he fell in love and was in it for life. 

*clutches heart* I love the Haddock men. 

And y’all best believe Nuffink is going to be just as charming and loving as his father and grandfather. One look at that kid and you know that much already. LOL gah…he’s adorable. (putting a photo cause it’s cute and i’m trash)

Geppie tries his best to catch him, as flustered as he is, but Sampo is one cheeky little brat, so he always manages to slip through Geppie's grabby hands until Sampo trips over an abandoned toy and Geppie literally throws himself on top of Sampo to keep him from escaping

but as Geppie hears a muffled 'owww...' underneath him, he gasps and immediately gets off Sampo's back, asking if he's okay as they both sit up

but Sampo being the sneaky little brat he is, just leans in, gives Geppie another quick peck on the other cheek before he takes off again, leaving a flustered and agitated Geppie behind

just a few moments later, Geppie jumps up and once again chases after Sampo while furiously yelling his name

the teachers watching just shake their heads, chuckling, before eventually catching both of them and punishing them with silent work in a separate, quiet room for making a ruckus
