Y’know how people try to bamboozle celebs at meet & greets with some obscure job they did on a whim that they somehow forgot? Like MCR & Yo Gabba Gabba!

Me at David Tennant; yea, loved your work on the HTTYD audiobooks

No joke, I usually can’t do audiobooks but have been trying to find ones I like. And my public library doesn’t have the 3rd or 5th books in physical format. Reading the series now as I was in a reading slump & had never read them as a kid so figured why not? And it’s quickly become one of my favorite series. Even fixed up my cd walkman, granted she’s seen better days but still works!

Granted I do miss the maps & the drawings found in the margins every few pages when it comes to the audiobooks. Especially when it’s one of the dragon foes. Cause they do add a lot of charm & whimsy to the series. Like I see why it’s such a beloved franchise.

Top Nine No Skip Albums (as tagged by @heronfem), organized in favorite album order! I just straight up don't listen to music by album (and am also truly ridiculously picky about stuff) so this was. a lot harder than I was expecting! (this isn't so much "top nine no-skip albums" as "literally the only nine albums I can think of that I don't skip any songs on" lmao)

Tagging anyone else who'd like to do this, just tag me back so I can see!

How to Train Your Dragon OST by John Powell HTTYD my best beloved. I watched this movie when I was seven years old, got Test Drive stuck in my head and Forbidden Friendship stuck in my heart and haven't gotten either of them out since. I know it's not teeeeeeechnically an album, but I love it anyways and it holds an incredibly special place in my heart. Favorite song: Forbidden Friendship

Save Rock and Roll by Fall Out Boy The yearning... the yearning. Something about the nostalgia and the ache and the... the everything about this album sank into me. Alone Together is the song that got me to actually start listening to Fall Out Boy's entire discography, and we all know how that went. Favorite Song: Alone Together

Love Run by The Amazing Devil I just. I love this album so much, with all its motifs and melodies and intertwining songs. It's chaotic and beautiful and I will never get over how every single song but the last is about love going wrong in some way and yet the chorus of the very last song is love's worth running to. Favorite Song: Love Run (Reprise)

Vices & Virtues by Panic! at the Disco A collection of Absolute Bops and also The Yearning (Panic! version) and it's just. It's fun! The music clicks exactly with my brain in both a melodic and emotional sense, and that is extremely rare for an entire album to pull off. Favorite Song: This one's from the bonus songs that I think you can only find nowadays on Youtube, but it's Stall Me!

Masterharper of Pern by Tania Opland So this is a published CD of filk music based off the songs and poetry from the Dragonriders of Pern books, and. look. I like medieval-inspired folk. That's what this is. It's also about a book series that was extremely formative for my love of dragons, so just like. It's good. I like it. Favorite Song: Star Stone

Inside by Bo Burnham Every single song on this album is simultaneously an Absolute Banger and an Absolute Mood (which is everything Bo Burnham writes, really, but this one especially). That Funny Feeling is the best example of what it's like to be alive when it feels like the world is collapsing down around you that I've ever found. Favorite Song: That Funny Feeling

Ola Gjeilo by Ola Gjeilo Ola Gjeilo is probably my all-time favorite choral composer -- he does such fun things with harmony without being boring like some people (*cough* Whitacre *cough*) can be. Favorite Song: The Lake Isle

PTX, Vol. III by Pentatonix I went through a massive PTX phase in middle school (I was a preteen choir kid, what were you expecting), and this is one of the albums that stuck around. Favorite Song: Rather Be

Artificial Intelligence by Tom Cardy Every single song this man has ever produced is absolutely fucking flawless and I have nothing else to say. Favorite Song: Read Between the Lines

uh...jeremy jordan...because jeremy jordan. (but actually it stemmed from a tts obsession)

and i'm just going to list my not as active but still very much obsessed obsessions just to prove that i am the well-rounded person my blog does not imply 💀

star wars (in general), but i adore sw rebels (it is better than clone wars fight me) and love the bad batch

lotr...but who doesn't love that (i have watched all 24hr+ of special features and commentaries though...)

how to train your dragon (my favorite animated series of all time!! yes, the tv series are included in this)

wingfeather saga, my favorite book series!!

tangled, my favorite disney movie <3

and then i'm always down to talk marvel, harry potter, broadway (i also adore laura osnes and corey cott), and probably more that i can't think of off the top of my head

Good ole JJ! And I love, love that you became a JJ fan via the dark lil crumble muffin on Tangled. That is a 10/10 journey for you, bless.

I have never seen any of the Star Wars animated series. 👀 but I like my SW in a "limited world" kind of setting, which is why I love the Mandalorian so much - I don't have to know all the lore, and the animated series seem very "We ARE the lore." (But in a very good way! Lore is great.)

LOTR, everyone's beloved. The HTTYD series were so fun! WINGFEATHER MY BELOVED I need to sit down sometime soon and see the season two premiere of the show! (Btw my cat Artham is meowing at me and walking over my laptop as I type this lol) Tangled, Tangled, Tangled, bless. Marvel, my original beloved and reason I joined tumblr lol. Harry Potter the series I experienced and appreciated as an adult. LAURA AND COREY my unproblematic faves, protect them.

Thank you for dropping by! You have excellent and I think well-rounded tastes. 👏

[raayllum]

I’m not sure if you’ve seen anyone comment about how “similar” tdp is to ATLA or even people going far as to claim that tdp is a “ripoff” esp with the Soren, Claudia, Viren arcs in comparison to Zuko, Azula, Ozai. I personally find Soren more similar in characterization (though not entirely the same) to Steve Palchuck from the Trollhunters/Tales of Arcadia series (not sure if you watched or not) and if any character comes to mind about being similar to Zuko, it’s definitely Hunter from the Owl House in terms of characterization and arcs. Idk if you’ve done a meta about this before but I love reading your thoughts (if you’re interested ofc).

So I have done a couple of metas on ATLA x TDP, mostly noting the thematic similarities between them (bloodbending and dark magic, pre-S4's puppeteering too lol!) and between Rayllum and Kataang as developing relationships. Meta comparing "Thunderfall" and "The Southern Raiders" here, meta talking about Kataang and Rayllum (s1-s2 as it was written pre-s3) here.

Also a more opinion based piece on why I could get behind Rayllum but have never really been a romantic Zutara fan (I see them far more as narrative siblings, which is still one of my favourite metas I have ever done)

I am a big Trollhunters fan (reblog more about it on main @thethiefandtheairbender and various other cartoons like SU, HTTYD, OTGW, Infinity Train, etc) and I adore Steve, but I don't think I'd really compare Soren to him, simply because while I love Steve and his development, Soren's development is undeniably deeper and more pyschological, I think.

That said the ATLA character that reminds me the most of Soren is Sokka. Goofy, prone to joking regardless of if the situation calls for it ( "Mind if I watch you two jerks do your jerk bending?") just to get a rise out of people, lmao, sometimes overly confident or reliant on their battle prowess, and desperate to prove themselves to their fathers. Sokka's attitude particularly in early book 1 reminds me of Soren's in s1, as well as their more skeptic attitude and relationships with their more magically inclined younger sisters

For Callum, he reminds me the most of Katara and Mai (again, true before S4, but interesting to see how much he shut down the way Mai largely did due to her family relationship, so again, kinda fun that worked out). Caring sibling, fast and harsh temper, strong in magic but untrained, artistic and precise (hi Mai), ride or die for their loved ones above all else, even above morals. For Rayla, she's basically running parallel arcs to Zuko and Aang in a lot of ways: grumpy, banished, immediately protects the sibling duo she encounters, facial markings, guilt complex galore (hi Aang). Rayllum is a good blend of all their personalities tbh

For Claudia, she reminds the most of Azula, and Katara, and Zuko, due to her loyalty to her father, willingness to do anything for her family, and being marked by the same sort of dual visual storytelling that Zuko's scar had.

And Hunter from the Owl House was definitely one of my faves! I think he falls into a category a lot of more modern day redemptions do, though, in terms of not letting their character actually be messy enough for long enough that it feels like maybe redemption isn't in the cards (hi Claudia my beloved, you excellent subversion sweetie). Or they go too far and don't give enough reason for a character to effectively redeem themselves (eyes SPOP with a long sigh). And just to clarify, I do think Claudia will have a redemption arc, but I appreciate how we're going about it thus far.

It's funny bc in some ways while Zuko has never been my favourite archetype (particularly for male characters), my protagonist in my og work is a bit like him: lost, angry, easily resentful, and she's my baby.

I think I'm just kinda over arcs of "Oh my father figure is Bad / imperialism is bad"? Because 1) Zuko did it so well and 2) I wanna see stories that go beyond those things or do new things with those concepts (please no more "rich white lesbian girl with a mean family" arcs I am. so tired). I think that's why I like TDP so much, because dark magic thematically and its explorations of self destructive behaviour add a lot of layers and interesting aspects to all the dynamics that I don't see most other media for this age demographic kinda taking advantage of, tbh

[icy-watch]

This was a fun little episode, seeing all of the boys goofing off and having some fun. I'm always a sucker for these kinds of episodes.

As a Dragonite [the fandom name given to fans of the HTTYD book fandom by the beloved author, Cressida Cowel] and Berkian, I got a lot of nostalgia for one of my favorite series from this episode.

On to the next one!

[selkiewrites]

For years now, I’ve been filled with ideas of a grand medieval fantasy world, many of those ideas gone and forgotten as it’s developed in my head. For context I practically grew up on Eragon, visual media like HTTYD and H20 (props to fans of that), and a larger than normal dosage of celtic culture. See, I went to celtic language revival primary school, and though in reception I recall having to say grace before lunch sometimes, that didn’t last—the rest of my time there was filled with folk music, tales and cultural practices.

Now many years later, I’ve always thought to myself that my world was too cliche, too much “already done” and not enough “wow, that’s new”. Despite that it never went away. Some of my favourite music is soundtracks from high fantasy shows, like Game of Thrones (though as we know the show itself turned out awful, the music is stunning), and when I listen to those pieces I’m back in that world again, or possibly another one. So here I am, dedicating a blog to my musings, whether they be tidbits of writing advice I’ve picked up or actual content and worldbuilding to do with this place I wish was real.

I think a lot of people get caught up in cliche, myself included. I love the themes in my childhood favourite media as well as media I currently love. The question is how do you distance yourself adequately to not be a thief of ideas, while also taking inspiration? The line is subjective, and that's my biggest problem. Some people argue that Eragon, at least the first book, was a ripoff of Star Wars. I can definitely see where they're coming from. At the same time, though, a large portion of the overlap is that they both employ the Hero's Journey. There are other similarities, but there are also a lot of similarities between Hamlet and The Lion King. Both of those stories are massively famous stage productions now, without the majority of people pointing out the "stolen" ideas from Shakespeare's famous work. The line between "stolen" and "inspired" seems to move depending on the audience, the perceived quality of both works, and perhaps whether the "original" is a beloved classic or not. Hamlet, for most, is read or seen closer to adulthood, whereas for a lot of people Star Wars was (and still is) a childhood favourite series. If you're looking for someone to say it's okay to worry about this, then here I am saying it. If you're worried about it, it probably means you're doing your best not to plagiarise. You can still put the story you want to tell down on paper no matter if you aim to publish or not. Cliches and tropes aren't ever going to go away, and each one has an audience that adore it. They're what often attract people to new media, they're what tie us together, the common threads you can often find people talking about when it comes to discussing their favourite media. Things are a little cliche for a reason—they're done so often because people enjoy them. Enjoy your writing like many people out there would.

[hikstihjarta]

it’s been ten years since i developed a special interest in httyd 🤯

thirteen years of the most wonderful movie of all time, and ten years of me being absolutely in love with the characters and the world.

thank you, hiccup and toothless. thank you, berk.

thank you, cressida cowell, for writing a beloved book series that changed my entire life. 💚

[mrsnaildood]

I see one(1) newcomer reacting to the HTTYD books and immediately jump into brainrot mode, god, I love this series SO MUCH, thank you for giving it a chance gah

[rowan-e-ravenwood]

Do you have a favorite character out of all of the fandoms you like? If so, who is it? (And who comes close?) :D

Okay hi I apologize for taking so long to answer this, I was kind of treating it like the last slice of that really fancy cheese that you bought a while ago and meant to eat it slowly, but then ended up eating like half of it in one day on account of a standing-in-front-of-the-fridge-at-1-AM-incident, so you've been saving the last bit out of guilt but you don't want to leave it so long that you forget about it and it goes bad.

Cheese aside, this is a VERY hard question. Goodness gracious. I honestly do not think I could actually pick a favourite character out of everyone, but the top-ranking ones are probably:

•Fishlegs from the HTTYD books

•Villefort and Caderousse from TCoMC (poor little scrunkley meow-meows) oh, and Valentine of course (my darling sweetheart angel beloved wonderful gorgeous love of my life light of my heart)

•Alphys from Undertale

•Dagur and Mala from the HTTYD tv series (power couple of the century, also I'm in love with both of them)

•Charles from ASOUE

•Honorable mention goes to Corvus from The Dragon Prince. I haven't finished the show, but I would cling to his back like a baby opossum and bury my entire face in his beautiful fluffy hair. Also a big fan of Claudia- she's stupid and I like that in a woman.

Anyway, thanks for the question! 👋

[sea-of-dandelions]

favourite character in httyd and favourite scene???? go!!!!

SUNNYSUNGGU HISIIHIIHIHIHI

............scene. like as in one individual scene.

i think. if anything. it wld be the dancing and the dreaming scene. like honestly? goals man, i want that (pspspspspsps lior my love my darling can we. can we recreate that scene one day. please.)

also mala and astrid??? hot man. i love them. they <33 they cld step on me. i don't think i cld pick... just one.... honestly in the book series i loved snotlout's arc but we kinda missed that in the series ;;;;;

SPEAKING OF I'm so sad that arc was so good GODS he was such a good character just. man. and oblig kamikaze my beloved <33

[beachytablecloth]

brooke my beloved, since you were curious--

okay so the reason i only have one tag blocked is because for the longest time, i did Not know how to block tags so i kind of just. let it happen. (actually just learned how to filter on ao3 i little while ago thanks to grace, can't you tell i'm great with technology? 😌) and honestly once i learned it was like a spur of the moment thing, like, not to make an office reference, but ya know how they were like "michael has to fire someone and hasn't, he'll prolly fire the first person that makes him mad"? that was how blocking the tag went oiuyfdghjiko

the first post that made me mad was the tag i blocked and--don't judge me--it's the httyd movies 😬 ik everyone loves them but i. i love the books. so much. and the movies are uhhh they are Very Different from the books. like. percy jackson movie level different, and the books were like. a huge part of my childhood. plus, they replaced my favorite character with astrid to give hiccup a love interest and that is unforgivable in my mind because camicazi is the best God i love that tiny scary blonde child she's so funny

anyWAYS i won't go on a rant about how much they make me :/// cause i know most of my mutuals really like the movies and i wanna be respectful, but tbh one of the reasons it's blocked and makes me mad is because people would like. genuinely get mad at me in high school when i told them that i didn't like the movies and preferred the books??? like, i was in a class one time and okay i was one of four seniors in the class so it could be because it was a Pretty young class, but i mentioned that i did Not like the movies and they all Literally yelled at me for it and basically said my opinion was stupid and wrong and i had to go "we need to stop this conversation because y'all are making me mad and imma say something i'll regret later" and surprisingly that worked ??? but yeah, so one of the main reasons the movies fill me with rage is because of everyone in my life who got genuinely mad at me for not liking me lol great times

anYWAYS yeah. the next tag i block will probably be the next post that fills me with rage. thinking about blocking divergent now because i walked into two of my roommates and their friends watching the first movie and that filled me with rage (do not even get me started on divergent because that history is just as complicated as the httyd movies lol)

anyways this is really long. i am *sparkle emoji* procrastinating homework *sparkle emoji* so ig i made this as long as possible to Not do homework lol love you hope you're having a good day <3

omg hi corey <3 sorry for answering this so late i'm. just like that.

ok first of all i'm old af and have been on tumblr so long that i used to used extensions to block tags/ content -- most people remember xkit, but anybody remember tumblr savior??? yeah i'm ancient. so blocking tags is like second nature to me. plus i spent a lot of time in the one direction fandom so there was a lot of stuff that needed to be filtered out. hahaha. i love that you only recently learned to filter on ao3 kasjd;flj but tbf ao3 is a v confusing website!!!!

also. i LOVE the httyd movies, but NO judgment from me here. i totally understand loving a book series and hating how the movies change things. i never read the httyd books, so i never had anything to compare the movies to. totally understand your rage though.... you should've seen me when i first saw the sixth movie of a not-to-be-named disgraced franchise. i was LIVID.

but i'm so sorry people got so mad at you??? i understand how passionate people can be about the things they like, but there's no excuse to like. literally fight about it! that's so messed up :(

if you ever want to rage about divergent my inbox is always open because oh my god, did that series make me angry lmao

anyway i love your long messages please send them anytime (although i probably shouldn't encourage procrastinating..... jk i am the queen of procrastination)

<3

[that-was-anticlimactic]

12, 15, and 18? <3

12: a character that i love that's underappreciated

i already answered this one here, but i tend to attach to underappreciated characters oops so imma make a big claim here... but... camicazi from the httyd books... yes the books... actually, anyone from the httyd books but imma say camicazi and... no camicazi AND fishlegs.

the movies did them SO DIRTY first of all, they replaced camicazi--my favorite httyd character btw--with astr*d which is a sin in itself, and then they literally change like. everything about fishlegs??? fishlegs is actually an unhealthily skinny kid with curly black hair, glasses, pretty bad asthma, super bad allergies, and essentially the viking diagnosis of bipolar. he is like. Incredible representation !!! plus, he's hiccup's best friend above all others in the books and he is like super freaking important and they like never make him less than or poke fun at him due to any of his stuff (except like. the abelist vikings but they are made to be in the wrong), and he is still completely capable. he's scared, but he's brave and is willing to do anything for his friends. he's compassionate and clever and one of the more logical thinkers in the series. he actually thinks about the consequences before he does things !!!

then camicazi... my absolute beloved... oh how i adore she... she is super small. like. under four feet. yeah, she'll probably grow a little bit since she's pretty young but Still ! she defies female stereotypes, is the most skilled fighter in the main trio, is terrifying, fierce, can and will rob anyone she feels like for funsies, angry, loyal to a fault, willing to die for her friends without second thought, stupidly brave, and always tells hiccup and fishlegs "hey, you're not bad, for boys of course" or "you're a pretty good fighter, for boys of course" she is incredible, my childhood hero, and she is So underappreciated.

15: a character i'd throw hands with

hahn. hahn avatar. i have written two fics where i have had him punched in the face (zuko & jet) and i feel like he deserves it. he freaking Sucks, my dudes. will fight him. mean to my two favorite atla characters nope nope nope. also, i am more than willing to hate him than have people hate jet.

18: a character i'd be roommates with

okay so like... mai atla definitely and is that because grace and i are roommates?... no one needs to know.

but, uh, aside from the obvious, hmmmmmm, my gut is telling vanessa from the hollow and while i don't always trust my gut, i trust vanessa and i love vanessa and you know what??? i named my favorite stuffed pig vanessa after her so yes. i want to be roommates with vanessa the hollow send tweet <3
