StrangeSpot, Round Twenty Nine: Land

On the cusp of elderhood, Tycho quits his lab assistant job to spend more time passing on knowledge to his family. His birthday party also doubles as a family reunion and he suits the new grey hair.

Delta learns physiology and maxes her body skill with dance exercises. Go elders!

I wanted to do something to kind of say goodbye to httyd, now that I've finally finished Race to the Edge and thus watched every installation of the franchise (excluding comics, books, and spinoffs) and it just so happened that Hiccup's birthday was coming up, so I started this big illustration featuring Everyone! Then I lost my tablet pen and couldn't finish it in time :( But I still wanted to post something, so here's a closeup of the sketch.

Happy Leap Hiccup Day!

stoick will be like “if my daughter comes out as gay what should i do” and not wait for an answer (aka, the t4t lesbian hiccstrid catholic school au)

im so glad that we never get a clear picture of sophie’s background in leverage & i hope we never do. however i also really like making up various, often conflicting backstories for her in my head. perhaps they’re all backstories for an alias of hers, ones she laid to rest back in season two.

Trans and nonbinary characters in The Dragon Prince / The Mystery of Aaravos!

Terry (he/him), an Earthblood elf and main character from S4 onwards who is transgender. He has a coming out scene and is dating another main character, Claudia (she/her). He has a sunny and easygoing disposition but can sometimes be a bit too supportive/accepting of people's darker sides than he should be.

Kazi (they/them), a Sunfire sign language interpreter with a passion for research and linguistics. They work for the royal family and sub in as an interpreter for Amaya when her personal attendant isn't there.

The Merciful One (they/them), a mysterious figure with an unknown but seemingly sympathetic connection to Aaravos, at least on their end. They are the only other Startouch elf we know of at this point, as their kind are incredibly rare and not much is known about them.

My kitten has a new favorite teeny tiny mouse toy that we got at her first vet checkup and she loves it so much. We call it her mousey. She goes crazy over it and could play with it for hours, but sometimes she bats it somewhere she can't reach and we have to get it for her

Today she was getting into a bunch of stuff she shouldn't and I realized that I hadn't seen her playing with her mousey all day. So I asked out loud (rhetorically) "where's your mousey?" and started looking for it so I could give her that to play with instead. As soon as I said that though she walked over to a box of my gf's craft stuff and started pawing behind it, and when I moved it the mousey was right there

She knows the word mousey and she led me to her toy so I could get it for her 🥺 she's such a smart baby

Thinking about Oki watching the conversation between Jes and Zasza with a calculated expression. Sure, they're silly and a little prankster, but I think between his little quips there was something more in his expression. Calculating and thoughtful, they know more than they let on and this new 'side quest' is another part of the game.

I'm also deeply intrigued by his "Nothing is real" thing like. There's GOT to be something more to that

✨ shuffle your ‘on repeat’ playlist and list the first 10 songs that play, then tag 10 people ✨

i was tagged by the wonderful jules @tiffanyachings ! and you also get my annotations bc i love to talk about my little songs:

linkin park – friendly fire (2024) as someone who listened to linkin park almost exclusively from the age of 9 to 14 and then had to take a huge hiatus from the band in 2017 (or i’d get too sad), i'm very :') about this release

chappell roan – good luck, babe! (2024) jules wrote “WHO amongst us isn’t listening to this” and i can only say, so true (also no. 2 on my list!)

marianas trench – your ghost (2019) i love songs about ghosts & this is one of the best ones

kate bush – running up that hill (deal with god) (1985) i originally put this on bc i was having kristen applebees feelings & then i’d suddenly listened to it 6 times on repeat

fall out boy – fake out (2023) i can never ever decide what my favourite fob song is, but this one is on my top 3 for so much (for) stardust

carly rae jepsen – run away with me (2015) in my heart i am always listening to crj

hozier – too sweet (2024) it's so good !!! my fave line is “if you can sit in a barrel, maybe i’ll wait”

paramore – burning down the house (2024) i love the original version of the song & i think paramore absolutely nails it (everyone go listen to it!)

jeff rosenstock – liked u better (2023) my fave line is from the chorus, “i liked you better / when you weren’t on my mind”, & i have def felt this way about various crushes before

metric – help, i’m alive (2009) this is because i got a very stressful work e-mail recently lmao (and it reminds me of one of my d&d characters heh heh)

& i tag: @makeadexsave, @florencepout, @barebevil, @kwonhozhi, @bymenneske, @fire-and-fog, @lintillaarchaeologist, @flinkelinks & @ghost-of-bambi – if you want to, ofc ! ✌😎

StrangeSpot, Round Nineteen: Land

Land life is good. Everyone’s in a bit of a liminal period in their lives, except Astrid who’s just become a teenager. She’s seeing everything in a whole new way! While Nobel is currently dating Lettice Subject, Cosmo and Astrid are secretly fancying her too..

[pixelpaladin24]

I am here for the second time. 🖤

[l-carlyle]

all the news about the live action httyd remake? adaptation? did was make me want to rewatch the movies again from start to finish

[snapdragons-nest]

There was an extended period of time where I thought it was 100% canon that Astrid's full name was "Astrid Finn Hofferson"

Like. Finn, like her uncle ykyk

I thought it was so clever until I looked it up and it was NOT CANON AT ALL 🔥🔥🔥 and that I'm just insane and dreamt it

So now I'm curious, what does everyone else headcanon her middle name to be? (if anything at all cuz I've literally never seen a middle name headcanon for Astrid)

[waywardsalt]

now that ive remembered it, i might make my current ph playthrough a 100% playthrough (of as close as i end up with getting what i am interested in) because i am interested in the locations of all of the power/wisdom/courage gems to see if there’s any kind of pattern beyond just collectables being placed around

[cosmobrain00]

if i were to post more of my ocs here is there one in particular u guys would like to see more of perhaps?🫶
