Summary
Pre-HTTYD1, Snotlout finds a mirror that lets him see into the future! Naturally, he shows this off to the other teens in his generation, Chief Stoick, and his right-hand-man Gobber. Unfortunately, Hiccup wasn't invited, though the more they see of the future, the more it's obvious that something changed in a big way, and Hiccup's future self is right in the middle of it.
OR: pre-HTTYD1 characters react to Race To The Edge episodes, but I gave Snotlout the remote (at least at first).

Summary
Snotlout waved his hands over the mirror. “Show me myself twenty years into the future!”
To the amazement of everyone gathered, the surface of the mirror rippled like it was made of water and a stone had been dropped into the center. When the ripples passed, a new image was left behind. Not the reflection of the roof of the Great Hall, like it had been before, but the side-view of a man who looked remarkably like Snotlout, but older.
“Holy yak dung, it worked!” Snotlout exclaimed, leaning further over the mirror. “It’s my future self! What is he doing?”
OR: 14-year-old Snotlout finds a magic mirror that shows the future. 34-year-old Snotlout is trying to balance two jobs he loves, raising his son, his long-distance relationship with his wife and daughter, and his closest friendships on Berk. Unfortunately, with the week-long Thawfest festival approaching fast, emotions are running high.

Summary
God Valley Divergence, MANGA SPOILERS.
Shamrock's role within the Freedom Fighters was acting as something of a secretary for his dad, taking notes, keeping track of their schedule, that sort of thing. But because they went up against the government, his dad was always scared that someone would discover the link between them and target Shamrock to try and make his dad give up on his goals. Already, the local armies of the countries they led protests in sometimes shot at them.
Or: What if Dragon managed to save Shamrock at God Valley?

Summary
When a Donquixote pirate driven by blind revenge shows up at Kyros's house, the present Strawhats, Sabo, and Law suddenly find themselves thrown into an expansive desert! And, as Sabo is quick to discover, two years into the past!
“We just need to figure out where we’ve been sent,” Zoro decided. “If that pirate just wanted to hit us in revenge, he might have sent us somewhere random. Same if he just wanted us out of the way to try and re-overthrow the country. If this was an attack with any thought behind it, he would have sent us somewhere where we would be surrounded by enemies.”
“That, or this is a desert island with no life, where we will all starve to death without any need to waste the lives of his own men,” Robin countered.
“So morbid!” Usopp shouted back, though his knees started to shake.

Based on the concept of ghosts having death anniversaries where they re-enact their final moments without having any control over it. Danny never thought he'd forget his own anniversary. He also never intended for it to come upon him in the middle of a class.

Summary
Danny’s plans for the weekend were derailed when a mysterious invitation had him whisked away on a “mother-son bonding trip.” That would have been bad enough, but it turned out to be a setup by Vlad that left them stranded in the Colorado wilderness.
At least Danny and his mom agreed: they would rather rough it in the woods than put up with Vlad’s creepiness in the comfort of a ritzy chalet.
But the woods are infested with ghosts, and Danny’s mom is wearing a Specter Deflector—something that keeps Danny at literal arm’s length.
Together, they have to navigate the unknown around them and between them to figure out a way back home.
