For all intents and purposes, we're in another life. If we go home again, we might not remember this one. If we don't... then we don't, and we can't just wait for that possibility. Not when it might never happen.
[ She knows Hiccup wants to go home, even if Lex doesn't. He has things he has to do. But if he can't force it to happen... doesn't he deserve some happiness here, while he can get it? ]
I don't think it makes you a bad person. I think there are plenty of worse things that people do that make them bad people, and this doesn't even come close.
[ There's a soft smile on her face, and while Hiccup may not be able to see it, he may be able to hear it. ] I think it makes you human. I want you to be happy, Hiccup. And at the end of the day... I want you to have something worth fighting for.
