so i know that when people say night furies are the unholy offspring of lightning and death, theyre probably referring either to the force of nature/abstract concept or simply making a powerful metaphor - but it would be interesting to think about dragons as the offspring of gods, and in this case toothless would be the offspring of thor and hel
i think it would be cool if each dragon species had an associated god or godly pairing that they were fabled to originate from (if not literally then symbolically)
im also playing around with ideas of people who still hate dragons seeing them being as descendants of nidhogg and therefore being agents of chaos that must be eradicated. im also considering jormungand but idk if he's as strongly associated with chaos and i want to focus on the order vs chaos thing pretty strongly
thinking about drawing links for fafnir too? idk
need to brush up on my norse mythology
but i was already thinking about how to include religion in my thw rewrite and it would be fun to compare how the protagonists use their religious rites for celebration and to inspire hope while the antagonists use it to justify conquest of people and dragons

Oops, my hand slipped and I ended up getting an idea for another AU. I tried to keep the Light Fury’s design a little closer to the canon this time, but still with a few minor changes. She’s based on one of the concept drawings in the art book. Her build is more like a Night Fury’s, her ears aren’t short and round, her wings are sharp instead of having rounded edges. She still has smooth scales (in this AU her smooth scales are directly linked to her ability to cloak. This also means that Toothless does not share that same ability), but her scales are no longer sparkly. She’s also just solid white, with perhaps some hints of grey in some areas. No blue underbelly and no pink eyeshadow.
In this AU the Light Fury is actually Grimmel’s dragon rather than being wild. He killed her entire flock when she was a hatchling and was originally going to kill her too, but instead made the decision to raise her to help him kill the remaining Furies. Her job is to lure in Furies and lead them to Grimmel, where he ambushes them with his Deathgrippers and kills them.
Grimmel attempts to use her to lure in Toothless as well, but things don’t go as planned when she starts to develop a close attachment to the Night Fury.

Hi again! Weird question, but if you could rewrite HTTYD: THW, what would you change?
Ohhh that's a really good question. This answer might get a little long, sorry about that <3
There was a lot that bugged me with this movie. To keep this a little simpler, I'm not going to include the characters from the shows because they seem to be trying to keep those separate so that people who only watch the movies don't feel lost, but you can imagine that all of the characters from the shows (particularly characters like Heather and Dagur would be featured prominently)
Things I would do differently;
Maybe mention something offhand to explain away the lack of support from the outcasts, berserkers, defenders of the wing and wing maidens in the event that they aren't included
Hiccup wouldn't have let the village get that overcrowded. Seeing as we see him relocating dragons to different islands all the time across the course of rob, dob, and rtte, I don't think that he would have let it get this bad.
Astrid and the rest of the gang would have more of an active role in the plot. Astrid was really reduced to being Hiccup's inspiration and very little more than that this movie which bothered me. In the last two movies, though admittedly trivial, Astrid and the other riders have had something to do in the plot. (Specifically in the 2nd movie, getting caught by Drago, turning Eret to their side etc.)
Maybe they're trying to take out some of the other leaders that are working alongside Grimmel to weaken him
Snotlout would be totally different. He would retain the maturity that he had gained through the course of rtte. They don't even have to cut him having a stupid romantic subplot in this movie just keep the Ruffnut thing going and scrap the Valka/Eret love triangle thing completely.
Ruffnut wouldn't be that stupid, she would have led Grimmel somewhere else, or have known Grimmel would have been following her and sent him on a wild goose chase or something. We see her being much smarter in rtte, and even without the rtte thing I refuse to believe that after everything they've been through she's still that dumb.
I wouldn't have reduced every character down to one joke. Fishlegs' character is about more than the stupid baby, Snotlout isn't obsessed with Valka, Tuff isn't obsessed with his beard and Hicstrid's relationship etc. We've seen these characters be funny in several situations in rtte. They have the chemistry to make funnier, more diverse jokes
Instead of making the conflict that Hiccup and the gang just straight up don't know how to work together (because we've seen in both the movies and the shows that by now, they absolutely know how to work together) I would make it them trying to balance their new positions in the tribe and how they were struggling to work together in the light of the fact that they are newly all at the head of the tribe, and this a new kind of responsibility
Maybe they're all overwhelmed enough that they aren't focused so much on working as a team but on convincing Hiccup that their ideas are the right way to tackle the Grimmel situation altogether, which causes more problems in the long run until they reach the end and start doing their jobs and working together like the well-oiled machine they are
I feel like that would make the 'you guys are the best i've got' line more impactful. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE that part, but that is heavily influenced by the fact that I actually like the characters and have seen them actually being friends and being competent in the shows. (and lets be honest, what movie only fans actually like the gang? The movies didn't make them feel like a group of friends or competent characters without the context of the show imo)
But seeing them competent and struggling to work together before finally coming together might make that line hit harder
Toothless would not be so willing to leave Hiccup (his best friend for SIX YEARS) for a female dragon he met six minutes ago
He would want to go to her, he might even go with her to the hidden world after Hiccup gives him the ability to fly on his own, but he would want to return.
the light fury would look cooler
Maybe Grimmel would follow Toothless to the Hidden World and start attacking it. Maybe he captures the light fury. Toothless, panicked comes back, and Hiccup and the gang have to take the fight to Grimmel at the Hidden World. Grimmel dies, but they realize that people will always find the dragons no matter what they do and that they're stronger together
For that to work ^^^ then maybe we have Hiccup beginning to think that they brought this on the dragons and maybe the right thing to do before the final fight at the Hidden World.
You know how we had a fake-out happy ending where it looked like maybe Toothless and the light fury would be able to stay before Grimmel comes? It's like that, but we think Hiccup might be preparing to say goodbye to Toothless
This is really scattered and messy, and I don't know how clear any of this is, but that's what came to mind. I really hope that answers your question! If anyone has anything to add or to say about my critiques I'd love to hear it.
Thank you so much for all of your asks, every time I get one it legitimately makes my day it's just so exciting. Thank you so much <3333

Wow! Just cracked into the 1k club. Absolutely delighted with the number of positive comments, kudos, bookmarks, etc. in response to this fic. 😊 I'd been meaning to write this for several months but kept telling myself not to bother because no one would care, or the fandom had moved on, or whatever. But then I realized it didn't matter--I wanted to give Hiccup and Toothless a good, happy ending, and at the end of the day, that's all the justification I needed to start drafting. You want to see this story in the world? Well, you can make it happen. Here we are. (I will hopefully be posting chapter previews with artwork once everything gets squared away. Very excited for that.) Link to fic in case this somehow gets notes and people want to check it out.
Summary:
One year after Hiccup has become Chief of Berk, he finds himself confronted by both the past and the future. Even as his practice of dragon taming spreads throughout the Barbaric Archipelago, old enemies have returned from across the sea to stand in the way. Back at home, Hiccup and Toothless grapple with their destinies as leaders and the singular question: how far will they go to see peace in their lives?

" In the past week, We've made significant progress in our study on Dragon K01. And we made a fascinating discovery. The species is hybrid in orgin with traces of three species with one yet to be given identification. In the samples, we've noticed an odd abundance of a yet to be named hormone found only in the adolescent nightlight (thunder) DNA sample
It's been suggested, due to the hormone effect on muscle and bone growth, that this is the early stage of what the Nordic artifact describes as a " Titan wing". However, further data is required

People be asking after the HTTYD3-rewrite thing I did so here’s the Old Night Fury
Tumblr media
I dunno. I’ve never tried to draw Toothless before
Let’s flesh out the Old Night Fury, for funsies:
- He never makes any purring noises or cooing noises.
- He does this thing in mid-air when Toothless is following him where he dives straight down, then snaps open his wings and halts because his wings are bigger and stronger than Toothless’, causing the heroes to shoot straight past him. Usually when they wheel around, Old Night Fury is gone.
- He signals to the Light Fury Flock by opening and closing his back spines quickly, which makes a clicking noise. For this reason Tuffnut calls him Shutter.  - His plasma blasts are paler than Toothless’.  - When he returns to the spot where the Fury Flock is resting to find Hiccup and Toothless watching from the edge, he immediately attacks and rips Hiccup’s peg leg straight off before Toothless intervenes. 
He’s just basically the bigger, slightly darker (because reptiles darken as they get older) and spikier Toothless before being tamed—no hesitation, he just always immediately chooses violence.  He never really warms up to Hiccup or Toothless, and actually we’ll say the Love Interest Fury actually has to get between him and a protective charge from Old Night Fury right before Grimmel catches up and kills him. Maybe if Old Night Fury hadn’t been distracted by Hiccup and Toothless, he could’ve heard Grimmel coming as usual 🤷‍♀️

If the third HTTYD film actually wanted to end like the books, the dragons wouldn't have all left like that

A scene out of my httyd rewrite:) yes Krogan has a night fury. Her name is Sigrùn
So. Anyways, this rewrite completely redoes most of season five and six of rtte and has to go through httyd 2 as well… it isn’t just a rewrite of thw, which is getting an overhaul COMPLETELY. it is not going to be anywhere near the same plot as the original. Without giving too many details, the entire rewrite is going to be split up into several parts, and is told completely from Krogan’s pov.
Sigrùn pops up later towards the end of season six for the first time though,

Heather, Dagur, Rainier, and Mala in my HTTYD 3 wip (15ish years after HTTYD 2)
More details about their family below
I imagine this is the Berserkers/Defender royal family arriving in Berk for The Thing
Heather and Dagur are clearly excited...they they to see Astrid and Hiccup 😏
Rainier (14 - 15yo) is significantly less excited. He does not want to be there (doesn't want to be around the other kids), but it's his responsibility to shadow his parents and learn from them - especially as the heir to both the Berserkers and Defenders. He takes his duties seriously, so he's there begrudgingly. He'd much rather be at home, sparring with Throk. (He probably wishes Throk were his father tbh)
He really wants to impress his mother, who is not the most physically affectionate, but her approval means the world to him. He has his father's approval (and very clear affection), but as he gets older and learns more about his father's past, that means less and less to him.
Rainier is a mix of the most important adults in his life: like Heather when she was his age, he's defensive and has a hard time getting close to people. His aunt is also pretty much his only friend. He looks his father and has his anger issues - though if anyone pointed out the similarities between them, he'd draw a sword on them. He strives to be like his mother and values his responsibilities very strongly. He even dresses like his mom and moves and speaks like her - as if that can somehow make him less like the father he so clearly resembles.
Dagur and Mala have grown apart over the years, partially because of the growing rift between Dagur and Rainier (and the thing with his eye. it's a long story). They love each other but aren't really in love (or rather, Dagur is in love - or at least wants to be - and Mala isn't). They try not to argue and end up speaking very little instead of risking a fight. Heather ends up being the go-between to make sure everyone is okay. She feels like she spends all her time taking care of others while they rarely remember to make sure she's alright.
They arrrrre falling apart at the seams. I can't wait to write their scenes. I love them so much.

Fury Facts
(Note that these are canon specifically for my AU. Some of these aren’t even headcanons I have for the official canon.)
- The most common eye colors found in Night Furies are green, yellow, and orange. For Light Furies it’s blue and teal.
- Furies can live up to 50-70 years.
- Furies retract their teeth as a way of showing other Furies they’re not a threat. It’s seen as a sign of submission. They also retract their teeth so they can safely carry their hatchlings without hurting them.
- Furies can survive completely solitary and it’s not uncommon to see one by itself, but it’s also not unheard of for them to form packs. These flocks are often led by an alpha male and an alpha female.
- Since Furies mate for life, they are often very particular about who they choose for a partner. It can take years after they’ve fully matured before they finally settle on a mate. Fury pairs only breed once a year and can have up to four eggs at most, though three is the most common.
- Light Furies are the closest living relative to Night Furies and vice versa. Sand Wraiths are distantly related to both species and while they share some similarities in appearance, Sand Wraiths aren’t considered a Fury species.
- Furies develop small nubs on the underside of their jaw to indicate their age (which we see with Toothless starting with the second movie). Female Furies develop these nubs at a much later age compared to males. The nubs also grow in smaller and females don’t develop as many.

Rewriting httyd 3 with my friend
So in the third movie they say night furies don’t like the cold
And in the first movie Hiccup describes berk as very cold so it would make more sense if night furies lives closer to the equator
So the movie would start with hiccup and the gang rescuing dragons like in the original third movie but they overhear the trappers talking about going south to get rare dragons
They decide to get there first and as they are flying over an island they see something black running around so they land
They find a night fury and there would be a parallel to the first movie when hiccup first freed toothless and toothless roared in hiccups face
Toothless would jump at the night fury and they would start fighting until the gang realizes they are surrounded by night furies
That’s all we came up with for plot but we did come up with light fury ideas
They would still be very sleek like in the original but they would look a little more like night furies and they would be a light blue or white to blend in with the sky
They hunt by standing in front of the sun so their prey won’t see them and then they dove down and grab them light furies rarely use a plasma blast
Night furies can’t camouflage or use lightning they only have a charged up plasma blast then where spines turn blue and they get this when they get to a certain age like toothless
Light furies can camouflage and the two dragons are constantly fighting for food
The light fury’s introduction would be similar to Toothless’s intro in the first movie
The gang would be standing there and all the sudden there is a plasma blast near them but it’s broad daylight and there isn’t a night fury in sight
A while later they find out what shot at them when they run into a light fury for the first time
We also had a few ideas of night fury variants that adapted to living in extreme environments like in an active volcano, deep in the ocean, and high up in the cliffs
We also have a feral hiccup story but that’s for another day
