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 🗣️🗣️🗣️
#mochis mumbles#httyd#im jesting. For the most part#but seriously look me in the eye and say with a straight face that hiccup is a city boy#or he’s from suburban america#i’ll laugh in your face. stoick and gobber shriek at hiccup if he isn’t awake by sunrise and the cows haven’t been fed. Etc.#he would totally only go to the city when he hits his college years…..then it’s his devil wears prada era (i am dragged offstage)#anyway but my gripe is mainly the american-centric nature of modern aus#which I mean. fanfic is for fun. but multiculturalism is cool too
