#unhinged rtte

[dontgetcaught256]

Gustav: How would you guys deal with a toxic friend?

Fishlegs: Tell them how you really feel.

Hiccup: Slowly distance yourself from them.

Astrid: Engage in a 1v1 sword battle and if they lose they have to stop being toxic or pay the price.

Gustuv, being handed a sword: … well heck.

Tried to redesign the riders to be a little more believable? … as in convincing but not historically accurate? Tried taking the ac:Valhalla approach, I think they look kinda cool (pls ignore hiccup he was my test & I can’t get him to look any better but this is more abt design than polish I guess)

The helmets were kind of a nightmare and irl Viking’s defo wouldn’t wear any of those designs but I wanted it to still feel like their helmets. Snotlout esp needed his horns they’re too cute I’m sorry.

heather redesign

i miss mah girl and hardly anyone ever draws her

[byfulcrums]

been rewatching rtte

toothless is called T multiple times, but the letter T doesn't exist in the alphabet of this world

i think hiccup was also called H???

hiccup went to the wedding of the man who tried to kill him and his family multiple times. no wonder he thought he could change drago's mind

snotlout is canonically a theater kid

"you're so small and cuddly" "please never say that again"

the twins are really smart, but they're also just stupid

hiccup straight up disappears when he's working on something

heather had a super noticeable crush on astrid

fishlegs got a love interest!! a plus size main character actually has a cool, badass love interest!

it was super hetnormative but it was cute

there was an island full of flying women who were implied to regularly commit cannibalism

hiccup taught all the riders how to fly with toothless, that's so sweet

everyone is a flat earther except for the twins

hiccup almost directly killed a lot of people

and killed a LOT more when destroying their ships

“scalding– cal..ding--" "toothle, plama bla!" was pretty much the funniest part of the entire series

dagur was bullied as a kid by a guy 8 years older than him who literally tattooed an imagine of him beating up little dagur in his arm??? What was that all about

actually we need to talk about how messed up everything about dagur is and about how the things that could've/did happen(ed) to him may be the reasons why he's Like That

just why was he imprisoned by the outcasts??? he didn't do anything to them directly

oof my brain is spiraling. "he loved you" "ig now we'll never know" what do you mean he didn't know if his dad loved him

there's a technically musical episode

tuffnut became hiccup's defense attorney and immediately got him the death sentence

hiccup regularly jumps off cliffs

he also jumped off a boat, with his arms tied and without toothless. just where did he think he was going

snotlout's annoying attitude is actually because spitelout pressures him too much and he feels like he has to be perfect for his dad :((

THE 'HICCUP'S EVIL MIRROR' VILLAIN THEME DONE RIGHT YESS!!!

viggo is the best httyd villain change my mind (you can't, swords at sundown, you may bring backup but i will win on my own)

skrill comeback skrill comeback SKRILL COMEBACK!!!!

"COMEEE TO DADDY"

what is a boar pit???

oh my god i had missed this series so much. it has no right to be this funny

this was my childhood. it has forever shaped the way i am

berserker heather the unhinged >>>

actually good disability rep! yay

hiccup complains about his peg leg pinching him

he straight up cannot walk without it and it is shown many times

"well, there are the benefits of a metal leg" after it got caught in a bear trap

funny moments, like snotlout trying to steal it to use it as a weapon

the jokes!! toothless laughing at the jokes!!! hiccup being so fucking done with the twins, who are always making the jokes!

there's an episode where everyone is so sleep deprived they actually start spiraling

astrid becomes a happy go lucky girl, hugs snotlout and tells him he's handsome

the fucking mood swings snotlout got were insane

the twins were straight up just hallucinating

"i sent them to wash their dragons, how could they mess that up?" cut to heather falling on her face with a bucket full of water in her hands

fishlegs becomes so paranoid, he's yelling at everyone all the time

"don't you know the trapper's trap can trap the trapper?? ...oh gods, i must be losing it, i'm quoting dagur"

YOOOO VALKA!!!! it's so nice to see her

hiccup tried to murder dagur to stop him from getting to toothless, which is scary bc it shows just how far he's willing to go for his bff, but also funny because hiccup. that was not going to work

oh the hiccstrid slowburn, how i have missed you

the twins's made up language

there was a beach episode turned murder mystery and a musical episode held at gun point

hiccup has a whole little speech that he periodically gives astrid to remind her that the twins serve a purpose

[knightofthenewrepublic]

[foursidecity]

I know hiccup and dagur had basically the same conversation here

but I'm kind of eternally mad Heather and dagur don't have many one on one scenes or episodes and their usually separated despite. Living in berserker island and searching and training together SO.

SIBLING TALKING BLAST!!!!

[roshambo05]

So I decided to rewatch RTTE because I felt like indulging in some childhood nostalgia. A few things to note:

- Snotlout and Fishlegs are dating. Good for them.

- The twins are the best characters. Still don't know wtf a boar pit is.

- I know those are supposed to be dragon scales on Ryker's shoulder and arm pads but they look like turtle shells I'm sorry--

- Actually good disability rep?? Hello??

- Hiccup how tf are you still alive?

- "Toothle plama bla" is perhaps the funniest thing in any piece of media ever.

- On the subject of Gruffnut: There's another one???

- How does Tuffnut know so many languages? Did these languages exist in this time period? If so who taught him? Is Tuffnut Odin in disguise? Would that make Ruffnut Loki?

- Hiccup is AuDHD. No I will not be taking comments at this time.

- Where tf did Hiccup get his dragon blade in midnight scrum? Why did he not use it to free himself or fend off his attackers? Also, on the subject of midnight scrum, how is this boy's neck not broken??

- I stan one (1) Heather the Unhinged. Go off queen. Feral bastard child.

- Ruffnut is actually super smart?? And cool?? What??

- I did not watch the series before this one so Dagur's entrance confused me so much at first. Who is this man and why does his beard look like that?? Please shave.

- Gonna punch Snotlout's dad. Gonna kick his fucking ass.

- Why is Viggo so aggressively British? And why is his brother Scottish? Come to think of it, there is no consistency in any of the accents.

- Sir, that is not a dragon, that is a Pokémon (you know exactly which dragon I'm talking about don't pretend you don't know)

httyd characters based on things my patients did during my hospital internship, enjoy!

hiccup: calls for help because he can't find his other shoe and he wants to walk, forgetting that he just got his leg amputated.

astrid: entire bed is drenched in blood from her wound but doesn't call the nurses because she didn't think it was a big deal.

fishlegs: tries to help the nurses with medical procedures on himself because "they're working so hard and he doesn't want to be a bother".

ruffnut: calls the nurses for everything despite being able to do it herself, once called them to hand her the glass of water that was on her nightstand.

tuffnut: puts all of his home medication into a plastic baggie, asks nursing staff what pills are in the bag bc he can't remember.

snotlout: pretends to be in pain to scare the interns when they're practicing because he thinks it's funny.

heather: is never in her room, shows up in the weirdest places, will take the elevator to other floors to have a look there in the middle of the night.

dagur: is put into isolation because he has a contagious illness, is also delirious, and when the nurse uses the intercom sits up in bed and thinks god is talking to him.

gustav: tries to use the call button as a phone because he misunderstood the "call" part.

it bothers me that the general fandom consensus seems to be "heather is annoying but hey at least she's a cool fighter" (maybe not so much now but I remember people really hating her when the shows were airing)

I like that she's manipulative in riders of berk. She had to learn to be manipulative from a young age to save her family, and showing so much cunning at such a young age is honestly impressive

I like that she's flighty and has trust issues. I like that she's impulsive and deeply insecure -- it completely makes sense for her, considering the deep trauma she's endured. She was separated from her birth family, then her adoptive family (and presumably much of her village) were killed (maybe in front of her???). She's learned that relying on people only leads to pain, and it's better to choose to be alone than to have loneliness forced on you when the people you love are ripped away.

guys

this is good character writing.

I truly think if rtte were planned for a slightly older audience, heather could have had some grim moments that would make her complexity really shine.

Tbh I think her fighting skills are actually the least interesting thing about her, and I wish combat wasn't so important for her character in rtte

anyway I wrote a whole ass essay about this a year or two ago so let me not beat a dead yak

what I'm trying to say is that heather's faults all make sense, and I love flawed fictional women who make bad choices <3

Hiccup is an only child-

*LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER!*

Stoick has one son, two self appointed honorary Haddocks, one self appointed brother of Hiccup, one future daughter in law, one brother from another mother/geekout buddy of Hiccup, one 'this-guy-needs-to-be-adopted-by-better-father' cousin of Hiccup, one honorary sister of Hiccup, a bunch of Hiccup's animal friends who treat his son as either their mom or their hatchling at different times and finally, one adopted son who's the other missing half of the package deal Hiccup apparently belonged to
