Also can we PLEASE talk about how in Darkest Night, as cheesy as that ‘what if’ scenario was, the overall message was that Hiccup and Toothless would have overcome all odds and bonded and become partners no matter WHAT the circumstances. Even if it was years before, or years after Hiccup was initially supposed to shoot him down. They were destined to meet and bring humans and dragons together. It’s an encounter set in stone by fate itself and nothing can change that

Varian Month: Week 1 (Alchemy)
As prompted by rocksandrobots, here is my chapter 1. I didn’t get a lot of heads up... just kind of made this as fast as I could. Mine are going to be How to Train You Dragon crossovers because I want to.
The landing had been rough. Hiccup and Toothless, and the rest of the riders, had been practicing crash landings. They were always unpleasant, but they had gotten the technique down. The dragon is responsible for taking the brunt of impact and rider readies themselves for a force dispersing roll. It wasn't perfect but it's hard to practice something that could break every bone in your body.
Thankfully, that skrill hadn't knocked them from too high. Well, more like thankfully there was an island summit they were just passing. They had been trying to practice some advanced reflex tests around the cliffs and sea stacks.
It was funny how unprepared he was. With all the dealings with the Outcasts, Berserkers and even his own people, He hadn't put much thought into what to do when he met another person like him. Another dragon rider... another inventor even. Another hiccup.
When he'd first seen the skrill, the same skrill, unfrozen and back for revenge he cursed his usual luck for running into it again while just out for a nighttime fly. It dove in and out of the clouds snapping and sparking at them. That was when he heard a voice shouting over the wind. Normal dragon flying things like "Hey! Knock it off!" Or just general screaming.
Eventually he got a good look at what was ridding the skrill and it didn't look human. Just a blob of dragon skin flapping in the wind completely unbothered by the electricity around it. Hiccup had just made contact with a pair of horrible bug-like black eyes and was distracted enough to miss his moment. Toothless tried to doge another attack and his tail wasn't turned for it in time and they were flung onto the better side of a cliff.
Now, as Hiccup turned himself upright, the purple dragon was landing just behind Toothless. Before he could stand a burst of pink erupted beneath his dragon. The substance clung to his scales and the ground. Toothless gave a roar as he rolled. Grass was ripped from soil easily, but his claws and wings couldn’t be pulled free.
Hiccup sprinted to his dragon tried to help pull him free only for his hands to get trapped as well. "Oh, gods" He sighed in panic. "Calm down bud. Don't move." Toothless managed to move himself just enough to see his rider's predicament before turning back and roaring at something Hiccup couldn't see.
Suddenly a staff, polished and alight with the same electric energy as the skrill was held too close to his face. The light reilluminated the horrible bug eyes. A swift movement removed the unformed shawl from over its face. It's human face, obviously, of course he was human. Hiccup never thought he wasn't.
The boy seemed to be Hiccup's age, only slightly taller. "Ok" He sighed, catching his breath. "We ready to calm down."
"Am I ready to calm down?!"
"I know this looks bad, but I swear this isn't my fault."

oh wow so not Madcom content but httyd content im proud of-
Plus i do want to introduce the species that Phobos is in the HTTYD crossover AU- Yeah homebrew species, they are basecly komodo dragons, rattlesnakes and woodpeckers combined when it comes to their traits and abilities
Pure stoker class dragons, one of the slower kinds of dragons and they cant really glide due to the obsidian like covering on their backs, but they do have saliva which has a similar property to radioactive rays and poisoning-
they are very distant cousins of the Woolly Howl but dont share the same class or enviroment.
