    Summary

    Fishlegs is resigned, as he looks over at the box hiding the tiny Nadder, “That’s the risk of big clutch sizes too, it increases the chances of having a tiny one, or an- uh, weak hatchling? There’s a name for those types of births but I can’t-”
    Astrid drops the mirror, and doesn’t even hear as it shatters on the ground at her feet.
    “A hiccup.”

     

    __

    Taking in a clutch of Nadder Natchings, the Riders expected dealing with an onslaught of stray spines, fire, and squwaks that kept them up through the night.

    What they didn't expect, was for one little hatchling to remind them so strongly of their leader.

    It all unravelled from there.
