Okay, but Viggo's plan in the Defenders of the Wing two-parter. So ultimately his plan was to have Hiccup see through his first trap and investigate what it is that Viggo is trying to keep him away from. Unfortunately, this was a double ruse because while Queen Mala was so concerned with the Dragon Riders, (the obvious threat put in place by Viggo) the Hunters can go in and abduct the Eruptodon.

So he used Hiccup's intelligence and natural curiosity against him. Of course, Hiccup was going to wonder what Viggo didn't want him to see. And that was the first ruse. The second one is when he uses the Dragon Riders to fool the Defenders, giving his Hunters the time and space to do their mission.

However, if Hiccup did sign the truce (which he never would've, but what if he did) then Viggo may not have had a distraction for the Defenders, but he still would've ensured that the Dragon Riders wouldn't have gotten involved. So either way, Viggo's plan still would've worked.

That plan basically had three plot twists in it.

highlights from "mi amore wing"

im fairly certain these screenshots are out of order. i am not going to put them in order

absolutely wild to put this dagcup-ass pose in the same episode as dagur and mala's engagement. like we dont see dagur and mala's actual proposal moment but we see this. (and im not complaining)

also - can we appreciate the autumn colours in these shots? damn

Hiccup not noticing the necklace Astrid is literally dangling a few feet away (Toothless notices it though) meanwhile he spots a dragon eye lens from several feet away

Hiccup...

Honestly?

Relatable.

hehe I love Snotlout's grumpy little "shut up" responses

Hiccup once again being extremely relatable when he's struggling to understand how he's supposed to respond to Astrid's frustration. Just straight up asks "what would you like me to say?" Honestly...people should just say why they're upset or what they want you to notice. And tbh I felt like Astrid was a little out of character in this episode. I feel like it would have made more sense for her to be upset but she would keep it bottled up inside because she *didn't* want Hiccup to notice.

he. is. so. fine

I understand where Astrid is coming from, but I strongly believe that what Hiccup and Astrid have is stronger and more stable than Dagur and Mala's relationship - not just because they've known each other longer, but because I just think the fact that they're comfortable with each other is a better indication than the life or death intensity of Dagur and Mala's attraction. That intensity is going to lessen at some point and if they don't learn how to adjust after the rose-tinted lens honeymoon period, things will not go very well.

(hence the dysfunctional dagur/mala dynamic ive referenced briefly before in a fic and that I will focus on in more depth in other fics)

Extremely bold of Krogan to say this while said "friends" are nearby

Each facial expression here is priceless. Tuffnut is lucky to be alive.

THIS. IS. WILD TO PUT IN A FAMILY SHOW.

ok yeah theyre definitely getting into some freaky stuff at home lol

I really like this shot of Astrid. looks very dramatic and mysterious

Have i mentioned before that I love Dagur? I love him. Watching him rile Krogan up was so good.

Also...correct me if I'm wrong, but Dagur doesn't interact with Viggo after his redemption, right? I think it would be interesting to see whether Dagur would trust him or not.

Astrid is blushing SO HARD

this scene had me giggling and kicking my feet ngl

and again - Astrid got cut off before finishing her though but they really don't have to be like Dagur and Mala. The level of comfort and familiarity Hiccup and Astrid have is wonderful.

Y’all… Americans specifically, this is for you, from a humble thirty-something northern neighbour.

On a US podcast just now, I heard some young people saying they’re planning to sit out the 2024 election because they’re not fond of Trump OR Harris.

If you’re in that same camp, have you considered that you’re essentially saying, “I’d be okay with Trump becoming president again”?

That’s what this is about.

Refusing to vote is not making a statement for any cause. Refusing to vote is silencing yourself and handing your power over to the Trump supporters, who tend to be very enthusiastic voters. Please, please don’t do that. (They would LOVE for you to do that.)

The stakes are staggeringly high, and you can decide the outcome of this election. Please consider using the power you’ve been given.

Kamala Harris at least deserves a chance to make the USA a better country for people other than old white men. And I truly believe she wants to do that.

Thanks for reading. Gob smack bless.

Heather, Dagur, Rainier, and Mala in my HTTYD 3 wip (15ish years after HTTYD 2)

More details about their family below

I imagine this is the Berserkers/Defender royal family arriving in Berk for The Thing

Heather and Dagur are clearly excited...they they to see Astrid and Hiccup 😏

Rainier (14 - 15yo) is significantly less excited. He does not want to be there (doesn't want to be around the other kids), but it's his responsibility to shadow his parents and learn from them - especially as the heir to both the Berserkers and Defenders. He takes his duties seriously, so he's there begrudgingly. He'd much rather be at home, sparring with Throk. (He probably wishes Throk were his father tbh)

He really wants to impress his mother, who is not the most physically affectionate, but her approval means the world to him. He has his father's approval (and very clear affection), but as he gets older and learns more about his father's past, that means less and less to him.

Rainier is a mix of the most important adults in his life: like Heather when she was his age, he's defensive and has a hard time getting close to people. His aunt is also pretty much his only friend. He looks his father and has his anger issues - though if anyone pointed out the similarities between them, he'd draw a sword on them. He strives to be like his mother and values his responsibilities very strongly. He even dresses like his mom and moves and speaks like her - as if that can somehow make him less like the father he so clearly resembles.

Dagur and Mala have grown apart over the years, partially because of the growing rift between Dagur and Rainier (and the thing with his eye. it's a long story). They love each other but aren't really in love (or rather, Dagur is in love - or at least wants to be - and Mala isn't). They try not to argue and end up speaking very little instead of risking a fight. Heather ends up being the go-between to make sure everyone is okay. She feels like she spends all her time taking care of others while they rarely remember to make sure she's alright.

They arrrrre falling apart at the seams. I can't wait to write their scenes. I love them so much.
