Hello, I'm Narska. I'm a maladaptive daydreamer who can't take it anymore and has to make it everyone elses problem.
This blog is for my art dumping and about my AU's in diff fandoms. I mainly draw oc's and art from ROTTMNT and HTTYD.
I think I have a few f/o's that I'll post about, but my main wife is Dagur from Httyd rtte. Yes, I am a full grown adult. No, I have no shame left. :p
I hope we can be friends and have fun in our debauchery! :>
I finally did that! Even if my life.. is fucking hard right now.
Heyy @hypertonickriz , I'm tagging you so you know I used it, hehe. I didn't want to copy your art style, it somehow ended up being very similar. I don't have my own art style, I'm a chameleon, I adapt to what I see. ^^'
Anywayyy, my httyd oc Livvia Eldarston!
She's: friends with the whole group,
with Hiccup, they're also bit of best friends, since they both love tinkering and inventing new things, and they both can communicate with dragons (although Livvia literally understand dragon language).
She doesn't know Eret during RTTE (like everyone else).
She's also kind of best friends with Heather, and she loves her a little platonically. Well, Heather's her boyfriend's sister, how can Livvia not worry about Heather and not care about her then?
She loves Dagur, of course, but they're also best friends, because why not?
And Snotlout.. they like each other, but since they're almost constantly teasing and bickering, they also dislike each other a bit.
She likes Fishlegs for his knowledge of dragons, and because he has feelings for Heather (who's becoming a bit of a sister to her), and the Twins? Livv always liked how crazy the Twins were, just like Dagur, haha.
Livvia is easy to like, although she acts like a dragon 70% of the time. Once she likes someone, she sticks with it.
Ah yes, her skin is pale, practically white, a porcelain complexion that never tans, and her veins are visible beneath her skin. She also has freckles on cheeks and shoulders. She wears her hair either loose or in a ponytail, with the 2 strands braided in front with gold metal clasps, similar to Ruffnut.
Im gonna do this rn!!
How to Take Care of Yourself When You Have A Stomach Bug
A lot of you have been asking me to do a "how to take care of yourself when you're sick" post. There's a lot to that ask, so I'm going to be breaking it up. You can read the one I did on colds here.
This post will be about taking care of yourself when you have nausea/vomiting/diarrhea. Those symptoms aren't limited to just the infectious kind of stomach bug, so take this as more general knowledge.
When we are talking about the infectious kind of stomach bug, you want to be very careful about cleanliness. Wash your hands with soap and water (notably, not hand sanitizer in this case- many GI pathogens just laugh at hand sanitizer) every time you go to the bathroom or vomit. If you are sick, do not handle food other people will eat. If you are the only person who can possibly handle food and there is no way around it, wash your hands extremely well, wear nitrile gloves, and cook any food you have touched thoroughly.
Nausea/Vomiting:
Nausea is the sense of discomfort in the abdomen, chest, or throat that often accompanies vomiting. You can have nausea without vomiting too. It can come from things like infectious stomach bugs, but it can also come from things like motion sickness, chronic GI illness, emotional distress, or side effects from medications. Nausea is multipurpose like that.
Generally the biggest thing with anything GI is that you want to stay hydrated. With vomiting, it can be hard, especially if you are vomiting frequently. Always start by waiting about 30-60 minutes since the last episode of vomiting, then taking very small sips of plain water every ten minutes or so. If you vomit again, start over. If you can't hold down plain water for 24 hours (or less if you have other symptoms of dehydration like very dark, infrequent urine, or your skin stays tented when pinched) seek medical care. You should also seek medical care if there is blood in your vomit (red or "coffee grounds" appearance) or if you have a fever.
If you have nausea/vomiting often you should also see a healthcare provider about that. It's not normal to have nausea/vomiting regularly.
Once you're tolerating water though, branch out to other clear liquids. Clear liquids are things you can see through (or theoretically see through) and are liquid at body temperature. This includes black coffee and tea, juice without pulp, soda, broths, sports/electrolyte drinks without resin (not cloudy), gelatin, and popsicles.
Once you're doing well on clear liquids, move to full liquids. These include everything listed above and also milks, puddings, thin yogurts, ice creams, and custards without chunks.
Once you're doing well with full liquids, move on to pureed foods (like pureed soups without chunks, juices with pulp, and smoothies), or if you're really feeling good move on to soft foods like mashed vegetables.
This progression helps give your stomach time to rest and gradually build up tolerance to foods. Most people can go for a many days as long as they're getting fluids with calories and electrolytes, so don't worry about protein/fiber/vegetables/vitamins as much in the acute phase of nausea/vomiting.
There are a lot of things you can do to reduce nausea and make you more likely to tolerate liquids.
Tasting/smelling things:
Ginger is pretty good for nausea. You can chew or suck on raw ginger (which is pretty intense for most people) or get ginger chews or tablets. You can also consume strong ginger tea hot or iced. Notably, you generally have to taste the ginger instead of just swallowing it.
Mint is also a good option. You can eat mint candy or smell peppermint oil.
Smelling isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol works well too. They sell alcohol wipes for prepping skin prior to injections, and these are super convenient (and often pretty cheap) ways to carry around isopropyl alcohol.
Coca Cola. This one is less about taste and more about the phosphoric acid content and carbonation in Coke. Because of this, it does need to be brand name or it won't work. Phosphoric acid is a great nausea reducer. Do not flatten the Coke prior to drinking. The bubbles are actually really good for nausea too. You do have to basically continually sip it for it to work.
Other sodas/Seltzer water. For the bubbles.
Other strategies:
Hot water. Sipping water or tea that is as hot as you can stand can very temporarily relieve nausea. Like with the Coke, you have to do this pretty much continuously.
Pressure points: pressing on the inside of your wrist can help. Generally the bands designed to do this don't put enough pressure on the spot, so try on your own and experiment with how much pressure you need.
Heating pad: this is more for abdominal pain/cramping, but having a sensation like heat or cold can provide some physical distraction and improve nausea.
Cool damp wash cloth: On the face or back of the neck.
Very hot baths/showers: This is mostly useful for cannabis hyperemesis syndrome.
OTC Meds: Emetrol. This is just phosphoric acid. If Coke is working for you, just use that, it's cheaper and you can take it more often.
Bismuth subsalicylate: Pepto-Bismol. Works by reinforcing the mucous layer in the lining of the stomach and reducing inflammation. It also "collects" (adsorbs) bacteria like H. pylori and prevents it from doing damage. It also thickens poop to treat diarrhea. Don't take with aspirin or if you're allergic to aspirin. Ask before taking with other NSAIDs like ibuprofen.
Dimenhydrinate: Dramamine. This is a first generation antihistamine, which blocks histamine in the part of the brain that causes nausea. Contrary to popular belief this works for all kinds of nausea, not just motion sickness. Don't take it with other antihistamines, but you can take it with phosphoric acid or bismuth subsalicylate.
Diarrhea:
Diarrhea excessive liquid or very loose stools.
You can lose a lot of fluids very fast with diarrhea, so it's important to consume more fluids than you're losing. Drink a cup or two of electrolyte drink with every stool, if your stomach can tolerate it, and watch out for signs of dehydration.
A lot of people are afraid that if they stop diarrhea with diet or meds they won't "flush out" the bacteria, virus or parasite causing it. Because any infection is in the lining of the GI system and can't be flushed out, that's not how diarrhea works. That said, before starting an antidarrheal for acute diarrhea (diarrhea that comes on due to an infection or immediate problem), talk to a healthcare provider. Slowing the diarrhea has advantages in that it prevents dehydration and prevents the spread of certain pathogens. But if the diarrhea is caused by a pathogen that produces a toxin (like C. difficile) or if the diarrhea is caused by a food intolerance or allergy, you do want to get rid of the toxin or offending food. So you need to see a healthcare provider to rule this out.
If you have more than about 24 hours of severe diarrhea or can't stay hydrated, you should see a healthcare provider. They can give you better meds for diarrhea than over the counter, and antibiotics/antiparasitics if you need them. Other reasons to see a healthcare provider include blood your stool (which can be red or very dark black), a fever, a lot of mucous in the stool, pain in the abdomen that is sharp or hurts when you move, or significant changes to the color of the stool (like turning orange or white).
There are a number of things you can do about diarrhea:
Diet:
The BRAT diet is a diet to help make diarrhea more manageable. It is primarily a low-fat, low-fiber diet that classically includes Bananas, (white) Rice, Applesauce, and (white) plain Toast. You can also include things like skinless potatoes, white flour noodles, and lean meats without skin.
Caring for the Skin Around Your Anus:
One of the problems with diarrhea is that your butt hurts due to the constant irritation from the diarrhea itself and the wiping. There are a couple of things you can do here, and you can do basically one or the other at any given time. You can alternate them, though:
Protect the skin: Get zinc oxide cream and apply it after every stool. This protects the skin around the anus from moisture.
Soothe the skin: Use witch hazel or pramoxime pads to make the skin feel better. This makes the blood vessels in the area smaller and prevents pain.
Additionally to one of the above, try using baby wipes or water to clean yourself after pooping instead of dry toilet paper.
OTC Meds:
Bismuth Subsalicylate: Pepto-Bismol. Thickens stools. Don't take with aspirin or if you're allergic to aspirin. Ask before taking with other NSAIDs like ibuprofen.
Loperamide: This is an opioid that doesn't cross the blood-brain barrier. So it doesn't help with pain, but does slow down how fast food/liquids move through the digestive system. Ask a healthcare provider before taking this with other opioids.

A quick viking-era ref sheet for AkĂ. He/They trans-masc war veteran.
LORE
⢠Was born between Stoick's brother Fervid and Stoick's fianceÊ of the time, Frilda. Frilda was an ally tribes chiefs daughter, but after the betrayal the engagement was annulled. Valka became Stoick's wife after. Frilda left for home after Akà was born and Stoick (even though a little peeved) gave his brother help with the child.
⢠Though cousins, Hiccup and Akà grew up like siblings. Akà was one of the main people who helped him with village bullies, though Akà had less and less time because of their training with their father Fervid.
⢠Akà gets sent to the same ally tribe as a learning warrior at 17, which causes Akà and Hiccup great anxiety. They send letters to eachother through out the yeats and Akà gets to hear how Hiccup grows into a fine young man.
⢠Akà is one of the reasons the ally tribe start training dragons.
⢠AkĂ returns home as AkĂ the Undying, with no arm nor dragon. Hiccup and the riders take them with to the edge and start training them to become a rider, though it seems to be hard to AkĂ. They have a tough time with bonding any dragons and have to leave trainign sessions on the verge of tears.
⢠Dagur takes an interest to them as an other strong redhead and for the reseblence of Hiccup. He helps Akà get through panic attacks and shows them meditation. They bond with tales of war and tomfoolery.
Yay thats allll for noww <3
I've been sinnin and have drawn so much nsfw about Dagur. Can't get that man out of my head.
these are cuties from cutie town?????? ??????
Some doodles with @deranged-just-like-that from today! My oc Nikke and Ruffnut having banter and a Dagur doodle.
My HTTYD oc Ăki/Nikke in Moder!AU. Trans masculine nonbinary dragon rider veteran.
â˘They/He/She pronouns.
Nikke is Hiccups cousin, their fathers are brothers. Nikke is 3 years older than Hiccup and others. He gets sent into an international dragon rider school at the age of 15, having to leave their home for 11 years. Nikke returns as a veteran with only one arm and traumatized from war-like missions he had to go through.
Hiccup and the riders take him in and try to help Nikke with his fears of dragon riding after loosing his dragon during a mission.
Nikke gives the riders advice on dragon managment and seems to be trusted by all of them.
Though the dragon riding school had military strict rules and was basicly an army special unit, Nikke enjoyed the structure of routine and freedom of educational direction. Now living among the civilians, they feel anxious and depressed.
Also I might ship my oc with Dagur.
This might be a self-insert....
I made some dagur modern AU sketches. Yes, His tattoo is the monster energy logo. My babygirl.....
