Hi, I recently found out about the no writing academia discord when one of my fics was added to the ao3 collection (very honored) and was interested in maybe joining. You're the only person I've found whose posted the link to join but it was broken so I was wondering if you could help me out. If not no worries! Thanks!

Explanation. December is full, you’ll have to wait until January.

I was flying my loftwing and suddenly Skwyard Sword!HTTYD AU. Entertain the idea because really are Hiccup and Link that different. Snoutlout and Groose. If only in Skyward Sword I had a pet dragon instead of a bird. I want all the residents to yell NIGHT FURY GET DOWN when Link comes sailing in to skyloft. You're welcome

heh heh heh…

1) When Zelda is presented before the Statue of the Goddess, it’s a Monstrous Nightmare that untangles itself from the writhing mass of dragons crawling over the surface of the statue and comes to meet her. She holds out her hand: straight in front of her, fingertips up, palm out. And the beautiful red Nightmare sniffs, tilts its head, and presses its nose into her palm.Their bond is sealed. And as the other dragons push off and fly from the statue, shrieking and winging into the blue sky toward the distant islands, the Goddess smiles upon the partnership.A Monstrous Nightmare suits Zelda, as the headmaster’s daughter–it’s the top class of the common dragon breeds, with sprawling size and double the firepower. The Goddess fittingly bestowed a Nightmare on her father as well.Pipit and Karane, who are already enrolled in the Academy, both have Deadly Nadders with their spiny tails. Groose–who, like Zelda, and hopefully like Link too, is going to start his first year in the academy next semester–received a tank-like Gronkle, while his friends Cawlin and Stritch were jointly presented with a two-headed Hideous Zippleback.What Link is hoping to get from the Goddess, when it’s his turn to be presented to the statue (it’s got to be soon, right? He and Zelda promised they’d be in the same class at the Knight Academy together!), isn’t any one of these.Also, Link isn’t just hoping. After all, grown-ups are always saying that the Goddess helps those who help themselves...

2) Its speed is unknown. Its size is unknown. It’s the dragon no one alive on Skyloft has ever seen, and everyone thought the line had died out generations ago.But there have been whispers in the past few years. Rumors passed around by night patrols, by old man Rusta, at the Lumpy Pumpkin. About a shadow of wings sweeping out the stars. A distant, but unmistakable, shrieking whistle in the dark.Night Fury.The rarest of the Goddess’ dragons, in all the history of Skyloft no one has ever flown with one before.Link’s decided he’s going to be the first.

3) Link stands in the circle at the foot of the Statue of the Goddess. He’s supposed to stand still and reverent and waiting, as the dragons of the sky islands circle the Isle of the Goddess Statue and drop down to roost on the statue itself. Still and reverent and waiting, and hushed in awe, the only sound the flap of wings and scrape of claws and slithering of scales and chittering of dragons.Instead, Link tilts his head back, looking up until he sees a strange silhouette of pure black against the blue.Then he raises the practice bow he smuggled out of Knight Commander Eagus’ sparring hall and draws.“Link, no!”

4) The fact that Link is participating in the Wing Ceremony is something of a miracle, given that he almost missed his chance to enter the Knight Academy at all, let alone in Zelda’s class.This is because, although he did help the Goddess give him a Night Fury to be his dragon companion all those years ago when he was presented, Link’s arrow ripped messily through one of the dragon’s tail fins and did a lot of damage. It might have crippled the Night Fury for life--and Link, too, from being a Knight--except that Gondo managed to finish crafting and perfecting a replacement tail mechanism in just under a month, allowing Link to squeeze in a day before the cutoff.It must be the will of the Goddess, Headmaster Gaepora says. Nothing else explains the bond that boy and his dragon share, with a first meeting like that.

5) There are dragons down on the Surface, too.Link didn’t know that.Huge dragons. Dragons without wings, but that can still fly. Rare dragons no one’s ever told stories of, even rarer than a Night Fury. Dragons that wear garments and speak the Hylian tongue.“You will explain how you got here, and quickly,” the dragon says. The dragon has been saying a lot.Link nods along to Faron’s words, while busily nocking an arrow to his bow. He raises it and draws, steadily, despite the insistent distraction of chiming over his shoulder.He bets no one’s ever flown with a Faron before, and he bets he’s going to be the first.“Master Link no I can inform you with 100% certainty do not shoot that dragon!”

I like the Generation Why. It's a true crime podcast and the hosts present all the cases without bias and let you make your own conclusion on what you think really happened

I’ll check that one out! Thanks!

mageofthepen replied to your post: I recently rewatched Slander Against Chameleons

I haven’t even watched Tangled and I am personally offended right now

mageofthepen replied to your post: I recently rewatched Slander Against Chameleons

Also Disney the hell??? How bad are you at taking care of chameleons that you had 6 chameleon babies??? Aattalanta laid like 27 eggs each go around and the majority of them hatched. Like I think we still got more than 6 out of the less fertile batches as well

mageofthepen replied to your post: I recently rewatched Slander Against Chameleons

Are you telling me Disney only animated a danish and therefore if shoulder dog pascal every took a step he had a stupid ass danish in the way???

No, the danish wasn’t ever in his way because they rolled his tail upwards instead of downwards. See, Disney is super smart! They’re better at designing chameleons than nature is!

Y’know, I didn’t really stop to consider why the number was so low.........maybe they were only entrusted with 6 chams.......??? But no, wait, clearly Disney was in charge of naming the babies because all of the names were awful as far as I recall.

One of the babies was named Bitey and I just hope that name was well-earned.

Also did roomie take the picture? Or roomie’s friend because I don’t care if he did

mageofthepen replied to your photo: Total Eclipse of the Park at Robertsville State...

Who the hell didn’t pitch their Rams stuff after the entire city disowned them???

THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I SAID WHEN I PULLED THE PHOTO UP ON MY COMPUTER AND ACTUALLY SAW THE CHAIRS IN THE BACKGROUND LOL but I guess they didn’t want to have to buy new chairs

not roomie, and not the friend from up north, but a local friend. An extrovert, so we told her at the end that it was her job to ask someone else to take a group photo of us hahaha
