Okay so I'm rewatching the old Dragons: Riders of Berk show (also called Defenders of Berk for season 2) and can I just say the show is great at representation. The How To Train Your Dragon franchise is well known for great disability representation with Hiccup and Toothless. But! In the show, we meet characters like Bucket and Gothi. Bucket, who "lost half his brain" after he hurt his head. There are some jokes in there about him, but none of the characters really make fun of him. They take him seriously, and he's not seen as weaker and can do as much as Mulch can (who is 100% his domestic partner, they're always together and seem to live together, and Mulch brought 2 male yaks back to "restart the herd" when they lose the animals in the snow in season 1. They're gay. Everyone knows they're gay, too.)

And Gothi. She's the village elder, she's highly respected, and she communicates silently since she can't speak. Even Stoick defers to her opinions on things and yeah. I love this show and I love this franchise so much.

Random HTTYD Headcanons

Someone once tied together the Boneknapper and Death Song, saying that the former would hang around the game sites of the latter and then collect the bones and I agree with that so much. I’d love to re-find that post so I can credit the blog responsible because they are so, so real for this! I had to mention it because it’s such an under-appreciated take. (ETA: I found the original post here, by @dragonjadearts — thank you for this headcanon I think about it all the time.)

Changewings started to put their eggs in trees to deter Cavern Crashers from eating them.

Red Changewings are the ones that inhabit Changewing Island. Green Changewings are from further south.

Male Thunderdrums are actually the primary caretakers of young Thunderdrums. Both parents will look after and protect the eggs until they hatch but after they do the mother often leaves.

Additionally, Thunderdrums will also transport their eggs and/or hatchlings in their mouth.

Thornado and Skullcrusher have actually met. Thornado had gone out when Bing, Bang, and Boom were asleep and visited Berk, hoping to meet up with Stoick alone only to find another dragon by his chair. The encounter was awkward at first for all three parties, with Stoick trying to break the ice, but once the two dragons recognised what they had in common, they became very friendly and respecting of one another.

The Rumblehorn naturally hunts boars as its primary food source. As opposed to fishing for saltwater fish like other dragons, they also fish for freshwater fish like salmon.

Like the Submaripper and Shellfire, and the Skrill and Singetail, the Rumblehorn and Catastrophic Quaken are naturally opposing species.

Dark Deep was originally the home of the Catastrophic Quaken, not the Gronckle. Due to the sheer number of invading Gronckles, the Quaken was then mostly pushed out.

Gronckles are like the rabbits of the dragon world. They can reproduce from a young age and very often and with high egg counts.

Dragons like the Razorwhip, Timberjack, and Typhoomerang have shorter lifespans in comparison to other species.

Barb-shooting dragons grow their spikes like hair/teeth. The spines that are shot out out are ones that are knocked loose by new roots.

The more distinguishable the colours of each head, the older a Zippleback is.

Zipplebacks evolved from a mutation caused by inefficient embryo separation which means most if not all members of the species distantly share the same common ancestor.

Whip & Lash, Bucket and Mulch’s dragon, is actually female.

Bucket is related to the Thorstons.

The twins removed the S from the alphabet in Reign of Fireworms to annoy Snotlout.

The riders have contemplated who is most likely to turn into a Mildew-type, and most of them have come to the agreement that it would be Tuffnut. Chicken is his Fungus.

Mildew actually has a soft spot for Flystorm. Away from the knowing gazes of others he indulges in petting him and giving him fish, muttering “That’s nice,” as he would with Fungus.

Spitelout treats Kingstail better than anyone ever. As such all of his past methodology surrounding dragons is now in vain, and very hypocritical. (That sword analogy? How dare you compare ol’ Kingstail to that, boyo?)

Fishlegs is actually an only child (he’s always stricken me as one and it boggles me if he isn’t). Those kids he teaches in the Gronckle Scouts are actually his younger cousins. They call him ‘uncle’ due to him babysitting a lot and the difference in their ages. Fishlegs has a lot of cousins.

Fishlegs’ mother, Termagant, owns a Snaptrapper by the name of Arrogance, Innocence, Patience & Conscience. This means that Meatlug has older brothers (and a sister. Technically. Allegedly.). At first they were a bit too mischievous/privy with one another for her liking, making them seem like they were hanging up in her a bit, but they eventually got used to one another.

And yes, she makes all six of her children crab cakes.

The Monstrous Nightmare that Valka saves in HTTYD 2 is the one that took Gobber’s hand.

The Night Fury and Light Fury evolved via something similar to the Peppered Moth Evolution. Whichever one was the original species, however, is still unknown.

Gustav is allergic to peanuts.

Fanghook actually has a fear of setting things on fire.

Hiccup sees a lot of his younger self in Gustav, but it frustrates him that Gustav takes a bit more after Snotlout sometimes.

Gustav’s mother actually wanted to call him “Hiccup” (being the runt) but didn’t want to upstage the chief or confuse people, so she chose “Gustav” (meaning god’s staff or popular guest) to be ironic.

Snotlout was originally proud to have Gustav model himself after him, but when growing up and maturing on the Edge he realised that Gustav was or could be reckless because of it and started to resent him for being a “cheap copy” of him.

Hookfang has a soft spot for Gustav, mostly when he was younger. Since Gustav got Fanghook, his patience has been less withstanding.

The dragon with the least patience for kids is actually Stormfly. Just after would be either Barf & Belch or Hookfang, but by a long shot. Hookfang holds more patience for younger kids than older ones.

Spitelout for some reason shows more outwards appreciation towards Gustav, but argues with him over being leader of the A Team.

was going to post a photo of some tractor work i did today but don't want to seem like i condone tractor usage....

[halfdeadhalfpaniced]

do you have anything in the Fairy Tale au for Nezha?

Okay so hear me out:

Thumbelina.

A tiny warrior born from a lotus blossom! Obviously this one won’t follow the actual fairy tale that much but I can’t really resist the idea. Just a tiny little guy done with the bullshit of the big world. He makes his clothes out of lotus petals enchanted to be stronger and never wilt carrying a spear made of a large sewing needle and decorated with a ribbon. His skates are made from a pair of dolls shoes and the wheels of a fancy small metal toy cart or carriage .

I don’t really know what role he would play in the greater story right now but he would probably end up traveling with either MK or Wukong for a little potentially both. Eventually he could settle down in the village Pigsys is located in getting a custom little home!

That’s just a loose idea for his place in the story though if I or someone else thinks of a better idea I’ll gladly change it.

[hiccup-in-the-code]

Also okay, Bucket and Mulch were definitely meant to be gay right?

Just a reminder that I was friends with someone puppychan/wolfertinger666 was friends with when he got really toxic, and I personally saw everything (aside from things he kept in dms) going down in real time. He acts the way I acted (minus when he was uh really racist and is too comfortable with groomers, minors, and now "radqueers") before I got help and reflected on myself and my previous actions. You know, the actions I can say are in the past because I've grown and moved on from them and haven't suicide baited in 5 years and haven't been toxic to people and don't lie every chance I get and try to look all cute and small and squishy by going "boobies! You can't hate me because I'm a soft little boy with boobies! And tummy and ass!" every second of your damn life. You can't say the same, and you never, ever will, because you will never grow and you continually stunt yourself at every chance you get :p

in hindsight, his willingness to push through literally any situation despite being wildly stressed and overwhelmed the entire time was clearly the main thing that endeared me to him

[strengthofmayhem]

mokuton user oc but she’s honestly extremely weaksauce (it’s not exactly that her chakra reserves are pitiful but she physically can’t channel enough of it at once to utilize the kekkei genkai effectively— abnormally narrow tenkatsu system?) and also isn’t an idiot and noticed pretty young what happens to orphans who show the physical signs of belonging to a clan bloodline (usually they disappear) so nobody knows this about her. cagey little freak.

her physical resemblance to hashirama isn’t *nonexistent* so it’s plausible she’s a bastard offshoot of his line and not some random branch senju… but she doesn’t think about it very often. <3

she melts into buildings (wood, baby) and collects blackmail material on everyone she knows as like… a hobby. no friends. forgot what normal personal boundaries are.
