HTTYD sideblog! they/them

[clever-paws]

Welcome to This!

My name is Kiyo (they/them), I'm a longtime fan of HTTYD who has only recently started interacting with the fandom. I'm mostly focused on How to Train Your Dragon 1 and Gift of the Night Fury.

I write (very slowly) and draw (once in a blue moon).

Find me on AO3!

I don't start posting longfics until they're almost complete, but I have a few projects I will gladly answer asks about in the meantime! I'll summarize them below. Feel free to send asks, my askbox is open! <3

To Be Loved

Hiccup befriends the Night Fury, and in doing so he discovers a magic that lets him be something more than human. (shapeshifting, soulmates of choice, disability and mutual care, queerplatonic Hicctooth, and more!) browse the tag! | (AO3 link will be added once I start posting chapters)

How Many Ways Can You Tell the Same Story?

They aren't fast enough to escape the Queen's fangs. She eats them alive in a single bite... And then Hiccup wakes up. Again and again, he wakes up. (time loop that resets every time Hiccup dies, with some additional complications along the way. This one gets depressing, but each of the Riders gets a chance to shine!) browse the tag! | (AO3 link will be added once I start posting chapters) Bonus Content: A Brilliant Line (deleted scene)

Other AUs and Projects!

Small Fry - a collaborative AU with @astrid-goes-for-a-spin featuring Stoick and the teeniest tiniest baby Terror. Extremely sweet!

The Maze - a series of canon compliant one-shots I have planned, exploring Hicctooth as a queerplatonic relationship.

They Don't Bite! - Hiccup ends the war with the power of friendship and ends up with the protection of a dragon the size of a mountain. This is not a popular decision.

QPRs are absolutely NOT accepted and very rarely understood nor are they taken seriously both on and offline. Whenever I’ve mentioned the term I’ve always had to brace for impact because I’ve had literally debates over whether or not they even EXISTED. Most people can’t even believe you can have intimacy outside of romantic interactions.

I’ve felt consistently inadequate because of internalized amatonormativity and overall lack of representation for QP love and intimacy and only had romance and sex to base my feelings off which made me deeply uncomfortable. It’s been deeply difficult to try and relate to other lesbians as an aroace lesbian because I feel like sometimes I’m in a completely different world. Really, it should be easier for me to know my boundaries but I don’t live in a vacuum. I’m still affected by all sorts of discrimination and oppression and have still a lot of ideas internalized about how I as a human being should behave intimately.

I sometimes feel like I’m intruding on aro conversations especially romance repulsed conversations because so many folks just treat it as “Romance-lite” and I never feel like I’m seen as truly aromantic (asexual) and also lesbian. I hate that people see my love as romantic, it really, really fucking hurts. And it hurts even more to feel like a fake or an intruder in the aro community for doing it. This may be the OCD talking but I feel like I have to hide a lot of myself because it either makes no sense to alloroses or it’s too intimate for aros. And please don’t tell me I’m valid, treat me like I am instead.

[rusababy]

I really hate when people try to frame their repulsion for QPRs as romance repulsion. Like, really it’s possible to be repulsed by QPRs. Please just say you’re repulsed by QPRs. Acknowledge it’s different! It feels so bad seeing others paint it as just a romance cause it’s not what it is nor does it reflect accurately of who I am. Like, I’m literally romance repulsed and love and want QPRs, that’s not an oxymoron! If you dislike something please be specific in what you dislike, makes it easier for all of us🫩

[blkaroculture]

This goes for sensual attraction/physical touch too, though people are a bit better with not equating it to sex immediately people still use it as the definer for romance. Like, a QPR is not just “relationship without the kissing”… my nigga. kissing is alllll i think about. Not a huge fan of liberal aspec activism, i think it’s time we deconstruct amatonormativity now thangya!

Not “Only my reading of canon is correct” or “Interpretations are subjective and all valid” but a secret third thing, “More than one interpretation can be valid but there’s a reason your English teacher had you cite quotes and examples in your papers, you have to have a strong argument that your interpretation is actually supported by the text or it is just wrong and I’m fine with telling you it’s wrong, actually.”

[mooncustafer]

If the text says the curtains are blue you can argue about what that means; but if you’re going to claim they’re actually yellow you’d better have a really good argument.

[xwilltruman]

i know the curtains better than the author. thank you for coming to my ted talk

[maidenvault]

Fandom has such unresolved mommy/daddy issues about authors. If you apply a little reading comprehension skills to my original post you’ll see I didn’t say anything at all about the author. You guys always make “interpretation” about your beef with the author. You’re all obsessed with the author. This post is just about deciphering what is there in canon. Figuring out what is being communicated by the canon itself with all the words and images and basic formal elements that are there in canon. That’s all it’s about. It really doesn’t matter if the author intentionally put all those things there in a pattern that might support the idea that this one character’s queer. That’s not what this is about. What matters is if you can compellingly argue there’s a pattern of evidence there. Or not. Everyone is conspiring together to make me go insane still adding shit about authorial intent on my post.

“Why are you watching it again? You already know what happens.” Because The Character is in there, bro. THE CHARACTER

[clever-paws]

has anyone actually identified the bird calls used in HTTYD1? i can find some references to birds that are shown on screen or mentioned in dialogue, but i would like to know what birds we can actually hear on Berk (mostly in the Downed Dragon scene)

[point-two-two]

yeah

[joyflameball]

Mischaracterization getting so brutal I'm about to ask people for sources and citations on their wrong opinions

[joyflameball]

What is your source for the idea that he would fucking say that

[schlarklezyaoi]

children are so fucking funny man. i just overheard a kid go “i just learned a new way to pinch, wanna see it? it hurts a lot more!” followed by a loud, notably pained scream
