I know that Brave gets a lot of hate from people (looking at you Schaffrillas) and I get it, but you also have to understand how important Brave was to me and to so many other little girls when it came out.
I remember going to watch that movie in the cinema when I was 6 and I remember just relating so much to Merida. I didn't know why I liked her so much, why she spoke so much to me, but I remember leaving that cinema with a new favorite princess. Merida was a princess but she didn't fit the image of a princess that me and so many others had. She was "rude", boyish, tough, loud, energetic, brave, and she didn't want to get married to a prince. And the most important thing for me is that, by the end of the film, she stayed like that. That, sure, those were considered "bad attributes" by her mother and Merida did change by the end of the film, but she was still her loud, boyish self and her mom learned how to respect that.
Now, you have to understand that I was a 6 year old girl who the only adult life that had experienced was your typical heteronormative relationships. Until that point in my live the only princess that I knew was the the shy, delicate, damsel in distress who always marry the prince in the end Disney princess. I didn't know that not getting married was a choice. I didn't know that I could be loud and rude and energetic and out spoken and Still be a princess. Sure latter on I figured out that I was aromantic and definitely not cis but that is not what this is about. I was a little girl, who shared all of those characteristics with Merida, finally being represented! By a Princess, non the less!
All of this to say that Brave may not be the best movie but by god is Merida my favorite princess

I just watched Brave for the first time in a while and I realized Merida is extremely aroace coded. she was my favorite Disney princess as a kid (still is!) and I would watch that movie often. turns out I grew up to be aroace, too :)

Am I the only one who thinks that Merida and Hiccup would probably make a pretty good friend duo?
I think they might get along pretty well. I’d also love to see Runaway Hiccup getting along with Fergus. Merida asks Hiccup if he’s ever argued with his mom like she did in the past (and still does, but not as often), and he hits her with the “I never knew my mother”.
I want Hiccup standing in the snow all like “Oh, this is nice weather” while Merida is in some comically large coat all like “Did the logical side of your brain get frostbite or something?! It’s fucking freezing!”. I want them teaching each other their languages to overcome the barrier.
I want Hiccup looking at the tapestry of Merida and Elinor as a bear, then making a quick sketch of him and Toothless to show Merida. It’s a bit of a misunderstanding, but the feeling is close enough to being mutual. Like “Hey, look, I have a non-human friend too!”
Or Fergus sounding like Stoick making Hiccup randomly pause, but the way he acts is so different. Fergus is a lot nicer to him as a friend. If we follow the events of the first movie instead of Runaway Hiccup or if Hiccup lost his leg in a dragon raid after he ran away, then Fergus genuinely curious about how it happened, but knows that not everyone is okay talking about it like him and doesn’t press. He’ll gladly tell the story of how he lost his own leg, though, if you recall the dinner scene from Brave.
On that account, if they ever tell him how Mor ’Du finally died, Merida and Fergus will practically brag about how Elinor showed an entirely different side and it was the first time they’d seen her that mad protecting Merida. Seriously, she took the term “mama bear” to a literal level and used those claws. You could feel the protective rage through the screen.
Another sub-topic I’d like to bring up is that you can hear one of the clan leaders sarcastically say “Maybe it was carried off by a dragon”. I love that because it hints at the idea that the kingdom doesn’t actually believe in dragons. At least not everyone. So Hiccup’s stuck between proving that they’re real and keeping up the facade.
Also, there are lines in Brave hinting at the kingdom not getting along with Vikings. So imagine if in the early days, Merida handed him a viking hat to try to confirm if he really was one. She still doesn’t understand a word of what he’s saying, but the disgust on his face when he threw the helmet and the anger in his voice when he next spoke was enough to understand.
“I’m not one of them.”
Drunk Hiccup: I just miss my best friend right now. He’s outside, in the forest, and he’s not here! *proceeds to cry his eyes out*
Fergus: I… think you’ve had enough.
Elinor: Fergus.
Fergus, carrying a very confused, semi feral Hiccup: What? We’ve already got four kids, what’s one more?
Merida: Little brother or big brother?
Hiccup: Excuse me?
Merida: Are you my new little brother or big brother?
Hiccup: Wait, wait, wait am I being adopted??? What’s happening??

So when I said i was working on something Big Four related.... this was what i was talking about. I'm aware it's super sketchy, I'm gonna revisit it later and make it much cleaner, this is just my very first pass of this animatic. (((i got a toonboom harmony licence for my part time job but it was expiring TONIGHT so I just really rushed to get the ending done before it expired, so if the quality of the boards goes down hill near the end, that's why x___x )))
I've had this action sequence in my head for MONTHS and I finally decided to hell with it and try to get it down in my free time. And I had a lot of fun!! However, if you've never done an action sequence before, I HIGHLY recommend you don't start with a car chase.
My hands. My poor hands.
A few things to understand for this Modern AU:
Jack is a ghost whose life source is tied to a mysterious pendant
They were in the process of transcribing a historical monument that might have a clue as to the history of said pendant
The fearlings are there to both kidnap rapunzel and inspire fear into them, to keep them from looking into the matter further
The fearlings are supposed to look like this:
Tumblr media
Which in my opinion is a much stronger and scarier design than the horses in the ROTG movie, however it has the unwanted side effect in my boards of looking like black sperm.
BUT other than that, I hope you guys like it, god knows how long I spent on this. ;;w;; but man was this fun
