Moving on to more consistently posting my own art/memes/whatever, I'm most likely going to be putting a focus on TES related stuff, although other fandoms might make an appearance here and then.
My thoughts and commentary on the How to Train Your Dragon books as/after I read each one:
Book Nine
Well the table of contents alone promises a wild and interesting time. “Oh for Thor’s Sake,” “The Wicked Witch of the Wilderwest,” “Still Going Wrong,” “The Boy Hunt,” and, of course, “How the Hook Survived the Flames.”
Aaaaaa the “don’t blame the story” plea omg
Oh boy. Oh this is already going so bad.
“The Prey Dive” oh dear. Oh this is bad
“I’ll take a little breather while the dragon pauses,” FUCK!!! THATS SUCH A GOOD CHAPTER CLIFFHANGER BUT FUCK!!!!
“Make red your claws with human blood… […] The rebellion is coming…” chills. That’s like such a haunting chant to hear
Oh of course a dragon that cute would never tell a lie! Absolutely never ever for sure
“They were scared.” 🥺
“considerably worse than a ghost.” Yeah I agree with you on that one
Oh dear. Well Hiccup, you’re in for a rough time of it now more than ever if I had to guess
Come on. Searching the hut is clearly a bad idea guys.
That scene with the Liar Dice was so interesting and chilling oh my goodness
!!!!! Time for Hiccup the First’s story!!!!
“Three dragons, each with a scar above its heart. Three boys, all called Hiccup.” AAAAAAAAAAA 🥺❤️💔😭
OH MY GODS THE GREEN DEATH
The Vorpent poison scene oh my gods… actual chills /vvvpos
Lmao, “gorilla with a hangover”
HIS FATHER?!!
Godsdamnit the witch is out again
Hiccup is only three apples tall years old
“If only THIS were the end” is right…
Oh of course the witch had to see the Slavemark. Of course.
Ahwwww Fishlegs 🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️
Ohhh my goodness. Oh gods. Oh dear. Oh this is worrisome.
Oh. My. Gods. That was… holy shit, that was definitely captivating. My emotions were played with so much what the fuck. I loved that. That was devastating. Oh my goodness.
Onto book ten!
[first], [previous], [next], [all]
By the way, I am curious, how do you pronounce Wilderwest? Do you say it like wild-er, or more like the wilder in bewilder? Personally as I read the books my mind goes to Wilderwest as in the wilder in bewilder.
ok I know everyone’s considered Ryland grace wearing an “I put the ace in space” t shirt but. have we considered the infinitely funnier option of putting this shirt on eva stratt
yeah, they did. I wrote up a big long post about the Trevor Project and the 12 hour charity livestream I'm participating in right now, and they deleted it. twice. We've raised over $50,000 for a legitimate charity but because it helps trans kids it gets deleted from the site
☝️🤓 it’s because the further you move toward the earth’s poles, the lower the angle of the sun is at the hottest parts of the day, meaning the radiation hits your whole body, causing it to feel 10-20 degrees warmer than the thermometer reading will tell you. People from tropical climes, aka close to the equator, are used to the sun’s radiation hitting a much smaller target- their head and shoulders.
Also the further you move toward the poles the more pronounced the difference between the length of day and night is. Worst part of a far-north (or south) heatwave is it doesn’t get dark long enough for meaningful cooling.
Actually, my therapist has told me this is a healthy way of processing things. Because you can get the trauma out of your head And you can write the ending you wish it had. The trusted person rescue, the catharsis of getting to kill the one who hurt you.
It's good for your brain. It's healthier than bottling it up. Fiction is where we go for emotional release. That can be true with trauma too.
Adding @dear-massacre's tags because they are so true:
#this is why it's important to remember that fictional characters are fake #they have no agency. they're made up #it hurts no one to make any character go through the horrors #it is healthy and cathartic
