Older Hiccup has a wealth of experience, and in many fanfictions, he imparts his wisdom about dragons, the Viking way of life, or leadership to the reader.

Another theme is the discovery of new powers or abilities. Since Jack Frost has his ice - related powers and Hiccup has his dragon - riding skills, the reader might discover their own unique powers in the fanfiction. This could be related to nature, magic, or something entirely new, and it usually plays a big part in the plot as the characters learn to use these powers together to face challenges.
