#valka

[yenich]

she was really weird and quirky in comparison to other Berk vikings

she couldn't even kill a dragon, always finding those rather interesting to watch than fearing them

yes, she was very strange...

but somehow he loved her with all of his heart, especially for those strange parts of her soul...

Nothing bad ever happens to them. You hear me? Nothing bad. This is such a happy little family, and they continue to be just that for more than five minutes 😊 If we all believe the Haddocks are okay, they’re okay

I know she's a pain in the ass to draw but can you pleasepleasepleaseeee draw Valka with Hiccup and Stoick? They deserve to be a happy family again

Having both parents be alive/presumed alive at the same time for longer than an hour au

They would have been so fun if they were allowed to be a family after httyd2🙏 context to this is that he was upset and shutting off from people so they be silly to cheer him up

Snotlout public execution when

[nat-but-free]

I adore Astrid's face in the first movie and don't like how it was changed later on so here's my attempt to save her unique features, complaining under the cut as usual

I feel like in httyd 2 and 3 they got rid of her "imperfections" and made her look more like elsa frozen or something, she's more plastic and conventionally attractive looking imo... in the picture below you can see how I tried to understand what exactly happened here

Could some of these changes be considered her aging? Ears yes, everything else - not really, sorry

Same shit happened with Valka and Im going to kill people, WHAT IS THIS TONOWARI WHY IS SHE WEARING MAKEUP AND HAS DIFFERENT SKULL STRUCTURE

this scene is sooooo important and nobody talks about it

this was the moment he first changed someone’s mind

a few hours ago he was about to give up. fly away and never look back. if she hadn’t found him right when she did then he would’ve been GONE. he thought that there was no point in even trying to show everyone the truth because he knew not a single person would believe him.

and then astrid finds out. astrid who was working the hardest out of everyone in training. astrid who is everything a viking should be, everything he ever wanted to be. and he looks her in the eye and tells her that he is choosing the dragons. up until this point he would’ve given anything to gain respect from someone like her, and at this moment he realized that he didn’t even care about that anymore. so he tells her she’s wrong, and he would not be giving up his dragon.

and she listened. hours before he would’ve never believed that anyone in that village was capable of change, and here she was, agreeing to keep his secret and asking him what he thinks they should do. ‘what do we do?’ not only is she agreeing not to turn him in, she’s also joining him. that’s the only reason he stayed. that’s the only reason he bothered trying. because she gave him hope. she proved it was possible.

this is why i’m a valka defender til the day i die, because she didn’t have an astrid. she didn’t have any evidence that change was possible. hiccup almost gave up twice, once when he tried to leave and once after they took toothless and left for the nest, and both times astrid is the one who convinces him the keep going, because she believed he was right, and that his cause is one worth fighting for.
