Another redraw, but slightly expanded and headcanonized:>
It's hard to argue that Dagur is definitely lucky that Heather even allowed him to have her on his side, after all that he did.. But it hurts me SO MUCH to watch how, throughout the series, Dagur hugged his sister many times, but only once was hugged by her:,,>
I love this scene and how Dagur says "I like having a sister", thereby once again admitting how wrong he was in thinking that he would manage in this life without people, who close to him, not just under his ruling..
He so worried for her and as Heather's arms just wasn't visible here, I really like to believe that she still hugged him with one arm at least for the last few seconds🥲🤲❤
Also.. I have NEVER thought that drawing characters in cloudy weather would be SO DAMN DIFFICULT!!! It took me a lot more time and edits than I planned... But hope it was worth)

Thinking about Dagur’s redemption arc in Httyd Race to the Edge series and how it is done so differently to other arcs from other shows:
-Dagur does not require help from the protagonist to start to change in comparison to others of his type. They usually require exposure or some influence from the "nice guys" to change, but this is not the case with him.
-He doesn’t exactly have a tragic backstory nor he was controlled/abused since he was younger (unless you count how he was betrayed by the dragon hunters in Season 2)
-Meaning that he doesn’t come off as ¨sympathetic¨ unlike other characters you know that they will eventually get redemmed on the long run.
-When he appears again after Season 2 finale, the focus is on how he is trying to change and how has he changed.
- At least in the Enemy of My Enemy episode, he doesn't ask Hippup to trust him or to give him a new chance, in fact, when Hippup asks him why he should believe him, Dagur tells him that he shouldn't since he "doesn't deserve it" due to his previous actions.
-He decided to change for the better because he thought it would be the best for him, regardless of whether Hippup or any of the other dragon riders helped him or not.
-There isn’t a moment he asks Hiccup any favor in exchange for saving him in ¨Enemy of my Enemy¨. He, however, does ask for his help to find Heather in a later episode.
-Even after the team believes that he is lying about how they are about to fall into a trap and put him behind bars in "Family on the Edge", he still tries to help them and almost loses his life when trying to stop the trap.
-While i have some issues regarding how some things seems to get retconned, Dagur tries compensating the pain that he caused to Heather by offering her a place to stay in Berserker Island and teaching about her Berserker culture.

Here is my contribution to the HTTYD fandom, even if it might have been done before:
An AU where the dragons and humans switch.
Hiccup as a smol Night Fury that's curious about the Vikings and just sniffs their stuff instead of killing people. Astrid as a brutal Nadder that's trying to protect him. Ruff and Tuff as the idiotic Zippleback that has only lasted this long out of dumb luck. Snotlout as an arrogant Monstrous Nightmare that also survives on dumb luck. Fishlegs would be the cutest and friendliest Gronkle EVER. Oh my God, Heather would be the scariest Razorwhip.

I just realized that in RTTE (HttyD), not only are Dagur and Hiccup are found family brothers, but Heather and Astrid are found family sisters. I know they never outright state it like they do with Hiccup and Dagur but their relationship is definitely portrayed that way.

Rating HTTYD antagonists/villains because I can
Stoick the Vast
8/10
He was an antagonist in the first movie change my mind. His conflict with Hiccup was super interesting and compelling, definetly one of my favorite parts of the movie
The Red Death
6/10
It did it’s job ig? It felt like a video game boss lol
Mildew
-100/10
I hate this greasy shit stain of a man and I have no clue how he got three wives
Fungus deserves better tbh
The Whispering Death
7.5/10
Fucking terrifying dude, absolute nightmare fuel, I love it (and it’s history w Toothless is a cool addition)
The Screaming Death
6/10
Not as scary as the whispering death, honestly, it was alright
Alvin the Outcast
7/10
Pretty basic, but he was solid. Really enjoy most of the episodes he’s in and I like the tie in w his history with Stoick
Savage
3/10
The greasiest man alive. He discovered free will halfway through Race to the Edge and even then he succeeded and literally nothing he tried. He’s kinda funny sometimes ig.
Heather the Unhinged
3/10
She was just so slimy and annoying in rob I didn’t like her at all lol
Beast (The Skrill)
8/10
I love all of the Skrill episodes so much omg. She’s so cool, I wish there was more of them
Dagur the Deranged
20/10
He’s actually insane and for that he’s my favorite. He’s just so good he’s so much fun
Berthel
1/10
He adds nothing to the story and I don’t particularly like him
Amos
2/10
His first episode is meh but I like some of his lines in Sandbusted
Ryker Grimborn
5/10
He’s alright. I like him well enough, but he’s certainly not my favorite HTTYD villain
Viggo Grimborn
15/10
Obsessed with this man. Easily the best HTTYD villain in the franchise and he creates the best conflicts in the series by far. I love the way he mirrors Hiccup’s character, I could honestly go on for a while about how much better he is than all of the other villains in the whole franchise lol
Krogan
7/10
His overall vibe is super cool and I really enjoyed that episode where he and Viggo were looking for ways to kill each other. His design is awesome
Trader (Traitor) Johann
10/10
Ruined the way I looked back on the hours in my childhood I spent watching ROB/DOB, I have never felt so betrayed in my life and I never will again, this man gave me trust issues
Drago Bludvist
3/10
He was alright, but I was never really scared of him. I liked how he killed Stoick, and he put Hiccup in an interesting situation, but other than that, he just didn’t do it for me
Grimmel the Grisly
0/10
Knock-off Viggo Grimborn. ‘You’ve never seen anyone like me’ yeah, alright. I hate his face and did not care about him. He shouldn’t have been the last straw for sending the dragons away, honestly
Spitelout Jorgenson
-100000000000000000000000/10
I hate him. This garbage man is an antagonist and you can’t change my mind. The Worst.

Do you ever wonder where the other vikings are that’s the same age as the gang?
I mean, all the vikings in the franchise either seem to be 5-10 or 30-50. The only person I know that’s 13-21 is gustav (which who appears in rtte series).
I don’t know if they were born in like a disease or a deadly virus that effected the pregnancy, birth, or while the child was growing in that period of time.
Tell me this, did the gang (including heather) just only and I mean ONLY hang out with each other OR could they go out and hang with other friends if they were able to, considering there’s multiple people in the village that’s their age group?
