The Token Ging

Just trying to vibe my good dude.

RTTE deserves a HUGE appreciation AT LEAST for its sibling dynamics.

I mean, what other show can get you the whole 3, who go:

(However, Twins famous for their stability, lol:D)

Drifting Hearts

Drifting Hearts-Fanfiction Link

VigCup Pacific Rim AU! Enjoy. It's a little backburner project I've been working on with @antiqueginger

After his brother's death five years ago, Viggo Grimborn retired from the Jaeger program and has done everything in his power to fade into blissful obscurity. Unfortunately for him, the newly promoted Marshal Haddock knew exactly what to say to drag him back into the fray. With Ryker's shadow following him every step of the way, Viggo can't help but feel he's made the biggest mistake of his life. It's none other than the Marshal's own son that has him seeing things a little differently.

Hiccup Haddock wanted nothing more than to join the Jaeger Program and become a pilot. He was ready to prove himself in any way he could, and nothing- not even his father- was going to stand in his way. When his hero, Ranger Grimborn, unexpectantly comes out of retirement and takes an interest in him, Hiccup thinks he might finally have the chance he's been looking for.

no you do not need to hold fictional characters "accountable". they are not real.

Honey and Burning Nettle-Chapter 14

Chapter fourteen: Promises Made is live! Story co-authored with @antiqueginger

Snotlout wrapped up his training session in the fields as the sun crested the far horizon and happily marched his way home. His mother would be making breakfast by now, so he would come home to a hot meal. Absently, he wondered if Hiccup was still committed to doing his training with Emma. If he was, Snotlout was admittedly a little curious to see how he was progressing. Had they started yet? He knew Emma had long since been up, catching a brief glimpse of her crossing the square for the cliff face that led to the arena. She hadn’t seen him, and he couldn’t find it in himself to call out to her or take up her offer of training together. It would have been easy to see exactly what progress Hiccup was making with his own eyes. It also would have been a good chance to see how people trained without a father who accepted nothing short of might and glory.

Guilt took a bite from his stomach for doubting his father, but he shoved it away.

The last time Snotlout had seen Hiccup training, he had been sprawled on the ground, gasping for breath and trembling like a leaf in a storm while he curled in on himself in a last line of defense. They had been children together, training under his father.

Hiccup and Dagur forming the sons of chiefs with a parent who abandoned them in circumstances originally out of their control but after the incident itself they could have chosen to come home to their children if they really wanted to, they just apparently didn’t want to club.

We’re forgetting that Oswald was trapped on Vanaheim by the Sentinels. He couldn't leave.

Honey and Burning Nettle Chapter 13

Chapter 13, Vow of Silence, is available for your reading pleasure! Co-authored with @antiqueginger

Snotlout trailed Hiccup through the trees and maintained a careful distance along his winding path. Even when Snotlout lost sight of him, he could still follow the trail of disturbed earth. It wasn't until they reached Raven's Point that he lost sight of Hiccup. Even then, Snotlout was able to find the boy’s poorly disguised trail and follow the muddy prints and broken twigs to a rocky cliff face. Snotlout was proud to say he never once felt intimidated or scared of the sheer drop into a cove, but he was also focused on the steps leading away from the drop back into the forest.

What was he doing all the way out here? What could possibly be driving him to be in that part of the forest? Only idiots went all the way out to Raven’s Point. Maybe he was helping Jack harvest some kind of plant? Or maybe he was just building something too crazy to keep in the village. But to take it so far out…

You actually cannot skip to being good at a creative endeavour that you haven't put much practice into. You cannot trick your way out of the 'knows that your work is not what you want it to be but don't know how to improve it' stage by planning or reading or talking about it really really hard. At some point you just have to craft through it until your brain finds it's own unique way back to the 'everything I make slaps' stage and be prepared to start the cycle all over again. You just have to make that project you're excited about slightly less good than you want it to be. (Says this standing in a pool of blood and covered in blood and also coughing up a little blood)

everyone stop reblogging this I hate to be reminded of my own good advice

[tired-fandom-ndn]

Sometimes "rarepair" means "you are literally the only person who posts about this on tumblr dot com" and you have to learn to be okay with that.

[sycamorality]

Honey and Burning Nettle Chapter 12

I know what you're thinking- "didn't we already post chapter 12?" Yes. Then when we were going back through our story for unrelated reasons, we gave it a major facelift.

Honey and Burning Nettle-Chapter 12

I've been co-writing a story with @antiqueginger, and we finally remembered we have Tumblr accounts to advertise on! Honey and Burning Nettle is a HiJack story where Jack grew up on Berk and became Gothi's apprentice. Here's the link, as well as the first few paragraphs of the chapter!

Toothless watched with an unimpressed gaze as Hiccup paced the cove. He wasn’t here with the Healer or the other one tonight. The Terrible Terror that had latched onto the Healer was here, though, much to Toothless’ annoyance. He dropped his head in his paws while the boy wore a path in the sand. It wasn’t unusual to see him by himself, but it was unusual to see him so…

“-And then Fishlegs just turned around and said, ‘You know he likes you, right?’” He spun around and gestured to Toothless. “I mean, how do I even respond to that?!”

That.
