#HE'S LITERALLY TOOTHLESS

[wickedcriminal]

Remember when Hiccup adopted a terrible terror in Riders of Berk

Sharpshot my sweety <3

I think it would really funny if Terrors are actually kind of nightmarish to train; that or Minicup just drew the short straw and Little Tooth is an outlier because he's Just That Terrible

In any case Toothless would HAAATE Sharpshot

#httyd #httyd au #half brothers au #my art #oughgh or maybe toothless is that bad because hes not actually a terrible terror but THEY DON'T KNOW THAT YET #you guys i HAD to bring up sharpshot i think he's the biggest reference to book toothless there is #despite the fact that Sharpshot couldn't be more different from book toothless personality wise (he's obedient for crying out loud 😂) #STILL LOOK AT SHARPSHOT'S MOUTH IN THAT GIF #HE'S LITERALLY TOOTHLESS #i rest my case

I like to think Hiccup has whole 'conversations' with Toothless that are essentially incomprehensible to anyone but them (they consist of little human language–mostly draconic noises and body language as well as signals/cues specific to Hiccup and Toothless) the other riders are used to it at this point, but a lot of people are very much not and find it incredibly confusing.

Its started a lot of rumors of Hiccup being some 'dragon whisperer' that can actually speak to and command them and the other riders tease him about it relentlessly because he despises the rumors and always tries to correct them. Like every time they're brought up he'll say something along the lines of "No. If u actually pay attention to and connect with them, adapting to their way of communication isn't hard. I don't actually speak with them ur just not observant enough" and is constantly ignored

(This is kind of a follow-up to another post but I didn't want to tack it onto a rb)

#he'll seem like hes talking to himself then make the weirdest fucking none human noise or movement #and they'll realize toothless is like right behind him with his ears perked up very clearly listening and about to respond #this is partially canon but they have a lot of hand signals too #hiccup waves his hands around absently when hes talking and excited (literally stimming) #but also has developed the habit of making specific movements when talking to toothless #httyd #hiccup and toothless #hiccup haddock #httyd headcanon #hiccup horrendous haddock iii #toothless #im supposed to be asleep rn 💀 #rtte #how to train your dragon #autistic!hiccup #moth.txt

Oh god please no more movies where a stubborn child forces themselves to be in a dangerous situation after the adult that cares about them says no

#If the movie was more realistic. The child will fucking die #Jell tells shit #Movies at the top of my head #Fnaf. Sea Beast. M3gan. Megalodon 2 #HTTYD did it right cuz Hiccup was cautious about handling Toothless. He has stakes that he takes in account #The rest of the kids tho. They're being little shits about not getting what they want #Turning Red is a LITTLE more reasonable than the rest #At least it shows that the kid is capable and it's clearly shown how controlling the mom was #Brave was literally about the consequences of forcing what you want without thinking about it and growing from it #I'm not saying punish when a kid is being stupid in media. All I'm saying is that they're way smarter than this

Been relistening to How to Train Your Dragon, and something I’ve noticed is:

Hiccup chooses his fate.

Like, I absolutely love the whole fate is ruling Hiccup’s life - playing games with him - I mean he is a walking “lost things magnet” to quote the witch. He seems destined to be king because there are so many signs - the blue snow, the swimming race, speaking dragonese, the dragon mark, the list goes on.

But. (And I only spotted this now) In the very beginning, when Gobber sends the boys in to steal a baby hunting dragon, the first dragon Hiccup ever has to train, he picks out one. He gets a nice easy basic brown (Horracow) and he probably would have been very happy with her. She’s obedient, holds similar non-violent beliefs as him, and would have been easy to train. He could have had a fairly ordinary life with her, nothing impressive but he’d have lived.

But Fishlegs didn’t get a dragon.

Fishlegs would have been banished from the tribe had Hiccup not decided to disobey the ‘only the strong can belong’ mentality and given up his dragon. Because he gives Fishlegs his dragon, Hiccup chooses Toothless. And Toothless. Toothless is the key to everything. Literally. *Looks hard at the lobster claw*

The point is, that because Hiccup chooses compassion over self preservation, he chooses to become king the wilderwest. He would rather do a hard thing, like find another dragon, than let his friend suffer. He would rather pick a dangerous adventure over those he’s responsible for, who he cares about, getting hurt. And that’s why, again and again, he always pick the path toward being king.

It’s the same when he saves Fishlegs by claiming he wrote the letter to Tantrum, and in the quest for the potato, and, finally, in how he defeats his father in the flashburn duel. Because dragons are people he cares about.

Yes, Fate chooses Hiccup, but only because Hiccup chose Fate first.

#hope this makes sense #it made sense in my head #but I’m ill #so... #nervous laughter #I just love this kid okay #I also need to do a post of toothless #hiccup is literally trying to compete with adolescents dragons #while toothless is a toddler #that’s like two year old trying to do high school classes #no wonder he struggled #hiccup #book hiccup #book toothless #How to Train Your Dragon #httyd book fandom #httyd book spoilers #httyd spoilers

rewatching httyd has me giggling wiggling my toes kicking my feet

every time toothless shows up im like 'OMG ITS HIM' and then they do cool things and im like "OMG' and then something horrific happens and im crying under my bed patting my cat telling her i will never leave her on an island forever no matter what

#i am very normal #unironically i see toothless and i think omg hes literally my cat #httyd #toothless #how to train your dragon

[vikiiitumbl]

There are no cats and dogs in the HtTyD universe because the dragons ARE the cats and dogs

#httyd #how to train your dragon #toothless #cat coded #in one of the scenes he's literally modeled after a cat #like theyre so silly

[shadszyyx]

im about to be such a stupid hater but as an aromantic person i hate the httyd 3 ending.

#YES i know its similar to the books ending #but idk man toothless leaving hiccup to go live far away with some random dragon he met like two days ago after he and hiccup have basically #grown up together just rubs me the wrong way #they've been through so much together #both literally saving the life of the other at one point #and YES i know they didn't just leave bc of that #but CMON THEIR FRIENDSHIP??? toothless and hiccup care so much about eachother #they're basically eachother's whole world #they're soulmates even /p #even valka tells her son that he has the soul of a dragon #idc what ppl say #idc if the ending was supposed to be ''realistic'' #it's a fictional world they could've came up with a happier ending where they didn't have to get separated #also i love love love astrid #dont get me wrong #but even since i was a kid i never really cared that much about her's and hiccups relationship #← aka aroace person speaking #yeah they have a lot of cute moments together #just bc im aroace that doesn't mean i cant find their relationship really cute #but again the friendship between dragons and humans is what the story is all about #idk where im going with this anymore sorry #im tired n mad n i just wanted to talk about one of my favorite franchises in the world #i love to just pretend the actual stayed together at the end of the third movie n also the light fury doesnt really exist #sorry but thats a topic for another post #bc i feel like this one has too many tags already #not that i completely hate the light fury #its more complicated than that

wanna introduce y'all to my baby white dragon critical role oc who has taken up 90% of my brain space for the last three years. her name is moonghost she's a champion fighter* and fully exists to be yasha's trinket, her most favoritest person in the whole wide world

#critical role #critical role oc #my art #*as of EotS she is lvl17 fighter/lvl3 paladin (for bahamut) #i can not stress how much thought and energy i've put into this character. she has a dndbeyond sheet with real stats #i homebrewed a dragon player race i made her a playlist i collected tropes from tvtropes and wrote out what her profile there would be like #as i'm sure you can tell by her shape and glitter ghost is heavily inspired by the light fury if she wasn't designed by utter cowards #in my imagination she straight up is a light fury but that's copyright so i added some more features inspired by the tlovm dragons #lucky for me she's not real so i can do what i want but it is something i take into consideration #her personality is very thw toothless (except justified because she's literally a child and not a flanderized idiot like he was) #i wanna do a ref sheet for her but dragons are difficult and she can't exist without yasha #once i learn how to draw yasha it is OVER for you people i will truly become even more insufferable than i already am in this fandom

All this talk of Shrek being powerful got me wanting to rank the Dreamworks protagonists by power levels so here's that, I guess, completely arbitrary with no real basis in reality at all.

Bonus: Dreamworks villains ranked on how easily I could take them in a fight

#look strength isnt just physical babes #but yeah my ranking is mostly physical #hiccup can hold his own in a fight without toothless and its time to stop acting like he cant #also moses has the literal power of god on his side so #barry b benson is just incredibly inately powerful so #as for the villains #fairy godmother could tear my asshole out and id be happy about it #jen rambles #dreamworks

Sometimes I think people forget that Hiccup didn’t just shoot Toothless down just to shoot Toothless down. This was a legendary, dangerous dragon that was firing on his village. He didn’t steal any food or anything that he might have needed to survive (yeah, the dragons were stealing for The Red Death but obviously no one knew this at the time), he was literally just firing on Berk for no actually defined reason to the Berkians and I think anyone would have shot him  down to save their friends and loved ones from being 1-hit-KO’d for no reason other than the fact that a dragon was just shooting off. Toothless warranted Hiccup’s little intro monologue on him for a reason.

#how to train your dragon #httyd #Hiccup #Toothless #//I've seen some people before go on and on on how it's Hiccup's fault Toothless was injured// #//and although yes Hiccup fired the shot he was literally just trying to protect his village and make his life more bearable// #//as far as I'm aware I don't even think we know if Toothless was actually with The Red Death's nest or not// #//he could have just been going there during the commotion for all we know// #//unless this was explained and I missed it somehow :0// #Lumii Ramblings

forever fucking floored gobsmacked, astounded, dumbfounded, open-mouthed, stupefied, breathless, wide-eyed, and left speechless by romantic flight

#the entire fucking scene #every shot every frame everything about the scene #combined with the MUSIC #everything combined together in just. this absolutely perfect bow #a pinnacle point in the movie. #it's the moment astrid #the MOST viking of all the teens the one who clearly is a viking through and through #the most traditional and serious #understands #she understands why hiccup befriended toothless #her literal point of view has been turned upside down and it took her seeing up instead of down at the ground of berk #bc SHE understands #change is POSSIBLE #and you start rlly hoping he can change his father's mind #SORRY i'm fucking high and watching httyd stuff on youtube #httyd #rose rambles

i got the dogs one of those "burrow" toys for xmas that's a spaceship with three extremely cute mini removeable aliens and now every time i walk into my living room all the aliens are strewn abt like the scene of a horrible crash landing into the arctic and subsequent mauling by a toothless polar bear

#the toothless polar bear is casper. he is OBSESSED with them i have never seen him play with a toy for literally a whole day #bunny doesnt care abt the aliens and is ambivalent to most toys but i also gave them a fleece elephant toy and she enjoys shaking that lmao #its so funny tho theres just like. the spaceship and three little bodies just laying there like they were ejected at great velocity

[thetimelordbatgirl]

Finally went to Build A Bear first time in my life! And despite intending on getting one you can dress, ended up deciding on getting Toothless.

#literally only ever seen BATB when walking past it and stuff #and always wanted to go in but money and stuff be issue #but got toothless with my own money so like #he got the bubblegum offered scent and offered sound effect #cause i couldnt resist #and did technically get a gift card thing so may have to go back one day lol #and also yes thats belle my kitten photobombing

2023 so far is shaping up into my 'fake it 'til you make it' era.

#boggle makes a living #i'm being spotlighted at work for their monthly newsletter and i'm like 'HUH???' #i literally spend all day like 'they're going to fucking fire me i'm going to get fucking FIRED' and my lead's like #that one meme from httyd where he's giving the thumbs up while toothless is fucking everything up #like i'm clearly?? doing something right??? #but i could not tell you what
