Happy Father’s Day to one of the best dads in the Archipelago, the absolute best dad without question, Chief Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III!
We’ve only briefly seen Hiccup as a dad at the end of HTTYD:THW, in HTTYD: Homecoming and in the Snoggletog Log, but we all know that he’s without a doubt an incredible father to Zephyr and Nuffink. We see that he’s supportive of Zephyr’s inventiveness, proud of her even though he’s the “test dummy” in many of her inventions and traps, and it’s her distrust of dragons at Snoggletog that prompts him to decide to put on the paegent - “I’m gonna make him look so much like Toothless,” he says regarding the Toothless suit, “Zephyr’s gonna fall in love with him”. Hiccup also has a close relationship with Nuffink, carrying him around on his shoulders and in his arms, throwing him up in the air as they’re riding Toothless, and it’s clear that his son adores him right back.
We see that Hiccup loves to tell his kids about Toothless, about the adventures the dragon riders had, and it’s obvious that he loves both of his children with his entire heart; he’s so proud of them, and he’s a supportive/loving/gentle father to them. Zeph and Nuff are arguably two of the luckiest kids in the entire Archipelago!
