How would you feel if there is another love triangle between Heather, Hiccup, and Astrid in RTTE?
There wasn’t really one the first time, I don’t think. Astrid was jealous, but I think it was more because suddenly no one was listening to her and instead listening to Heather, I don’t think it was as romantically fraught as a love triangle implies.
And I’m torn about it happening in rtte. Because if some trite love triangle thing happened, well, at least that’s some hiccstrid development. That’s some jealousy and adolescent emotion. But I also fear that it would be more annoying than it would be well developed.
But honestly, this is my super unpopular opinion, but I LOVE love triangles. Love them. Yes, they’re overdone, but maybe we keep going back to them for a reason, because they’re amazing. I love stupid rom-com misunderstandings and teenage angst. If there were some eye-roll-worthy love triangle, I would pause to make myself some popcorn before devouring it like I devour ya post apocalyptic trilogies with love triangles.
So, I feel that it would be detrimental to the overall story of the series, I feel that they should spend their time differently because they have so much plot to fill in between Defenders and the second movie...but damn would I enjoy it.
