"People fear, not death, but having life taken from them. Many waste the life given to them, occupying themselves with things that do not matter. When the end comes, they say they did not have time enough to spend with loved ones, to fulfill dreams, to go on adventures they only talked about… But why should you fear death if you are happy with the life you have led, if you can look back on everything and say, 'Yes, I am content. It is enough.'"
Show Snotlout is just so vastly superior to movie Snotlout, and I KNOW i KNOW they had more time in the shows, but they didn't have to reduce him pretty much solely to comic relief in the movies (I adore movielout btw even though thw Snotlout was a total nightmare)
Bc like it would've been so easy to give him a moment w Hiccup where he's like we believe in you in the second movie to show his growth from the first, or to show him joking around WITH the gang as opposed to being the butt of the joke constantly and stuff idk
I have this head cannon that Snotlout makes sure his friends are safe and ok in different ways, like…
When Stoick is mad at the riders, stepping in front of Hiccup to block him from Stoicks view because what if he’s just a bit more like Spitelout than he lets on.
Saying the food in the great hall is “so gross” and passing his plate over to Astrid, who’s been training too hard again and sometimes forgets to eat enough.
Making sure Fishlegs knows he’s appreciated by saying stuff like “Why do you even read, you already know everything!”
Walking Ruff and Tuff to the door when it’s curfew, just because they’re lonely in the house with a mother, quieter than she was before her husband was taken by dragons
Checking Gustav for bruises by patting him on the back, because what kind of parents sell their kid and don’t notice when they go missing? The kind he grew up with and he would do anything to help Gustav if he was in the same situation
Looking after his friends in ways so small they don’t even notice. Just in case.
I've been so caught up in the euphoria of Amell looking like Hawke but with longer hair that I forgot about the devastation of her looking like Bethany but with blue eyes
I was bored so I jumped on Picrew and designed human versions of what I think the dragons from httyd would look like. This post carries the last shred of dignity I have so please bear witness to such an occasion. Also, if there are any artists out there, how did I do with the designs? Would they be fun to draw or an absolute nightmare?
