my huge gripe w modern httyd aus is that it’s always set in the suburban midwest in podunk nothing town without taking it to its natural conclusion. As if berk would not be a steel mill town on the rust belt with the gas prices jacked sky high for tourists driving through the middle of nowhere. As if the barbaric archipelago would be the suburbs of a big city rather than rural towns in the Deep South. as if hiccup would not somehow end up hiking in the appalachias or turn up half dead after missing for 6months in the oregon wilderness. Cowards. Fools. if you’re setting it in america then you should take it to its natural conclusion 🗣️🗣️🗣️
#looking at the reblogs and comments and you are all so correct and big brained#I will admit I've fallen into the suburbia trap#but now I'm thinking Hiccup being from some place that's like#a smaller shittier version of Pittsburgh#is actually so so much better#and him living somewhere with a full forest and wilderness practically in his backyard??? So fucking true#having woodland dragons in the rural US would actually be such epic urban fantasy/magic realism#BUT doing some research and having him grow up in a small town in like Norway#would also be fun!!!#it would track for Hiccanna too#I need to do this tbh I've just been lazy so far#httyd#hiccup#hiccup horrendous haddock iii#fanfic#fanfiction
