Race To The Edge - Blog Posts

Thinking about how Snotlout and Tuffnut slapped Hiccup’s ass in HTTYD3.

Wondering how much ass slapping the Riders got up to on the Edge. 

For the non dominant hand doodles!! Snotlout with baby fireworms (i dare you to draw the helmet)

(Good luck my friend you can do it!!!! We believe in you!!!!)

how dare u make me draw the helmet 😭/lh

tysm for requests everyone <3 I feel like I have improved in drawing with my non dominant hand because of you!

I’m a really big fan of the headcanon that Snotlout has a soft spot for baby dragons. Like man is guarded and angry a lot of the time but put him next to a baby dragon and he’s instantly concerned/fussing over it 🥹🫶

excuse me!‼️‼️‼️

i have something to say

ok… here goes nothing…

Hiccup is Demisexual,

Jack is Trans and Pansexual,

I rest my case.

Finally saw the original on @heyniceworkasshole ‘s page, and an idea struck me

“I- uh, what?”

Astrid was standing at the edge of the door, looking at the clusterfuck of a mess.

Hiccup and Jack, both wide eyed, stared back at her. Jack pinned against the wall, his hands wrapped around the viking heir’s neck. One of Hiccup’s hand next to Jack’s head, the other holding the spirit’s waist.

Both flushed, silently held eye contact with the shield-maiden.

She crossed her arms, “Okay, break it up you guys. This is important.”

Jack and Hiccup awkwardly pulled apart, Hiccup sat on his chair while Jack chose to sit on the table.

Astrid cleared her throat, “Okay, how long?”

“Um,”

A beat passed between them. The boys refused to look at each other.

“A week?”

“A month?”

Another awkward silence fell upon the group. Astrid stared at the pair, eyebrow raised.

Hiccup and Jack sneaked a glance at each other but immediately looked away.

She sighed. “Okay, let’s try again. But this time, without the lying.”

Jack is 165 cm. In other ways 5’5.

Hiccup, in the first film is 154 cm. For other people, that’s 5’1.

Starting from rtte to httyd 2, Hiccup is 185 cm. 6’1.

Hiccup is canonically is taller than Jack in rtte. And that probably irritates Jack so much.

When Jack can’t get something from a shelf, Hiccup reaches from behind him and gives it to him. And that makes Jack so mad.

“Oh you think I can’t reach? Like I can’t just fly up and get it for myself? Are you implying that I’m short?”

And Hiccup tries to explain himself like “No, I was just trying to help you!” And stuff.

When Hiccup’s working in the forge and Jack is there chilling, he sometimes gets in the way of a tool Hiccup needs. So Hiccup just, picks him up and settles him on a table. And Jack is just, shocked. He has to process what just happened and when he does, the humiliation just fully kicks in.

He goes red, and starts to yell at Hiccup like “How dare you-?!” And to this point Hiccup is used to it. But seeing Jack blushing amuses him and he kinda likes it.

So Hiccup starts to doing it on purpose. He rests his arms on Jack, wraps his arms around his waist when Jack’s doing something and startles him, puts his head on top of the others head or shoulder. Picks Jack up when he’s in the way instead of going around him. All that stuff.

It drives Jack mad.

He always goes red when Hiccup does them. He either jumps or shouts at Hiccup. And Hiccup is so smug that he can get ‘laid-back Jack’ so frustrated.

Through time, he gets used to it. It becomes their thing. Hiccup gets touchy with Jack and Jack doesn’t even bats an eye. The gang was surprised and baffled at first, but they also got used to it.

Heather was really baffled when she saw the dynamic. She asked the others, but all she got was shrugs and fond sighs.

Nobody ever actually explained it to Heather how it started, and even though she was curious, she never asked further. Figured out it was just a ‘them’ thing.

Should I make this an AU? Jack being his spirit self and hanging out with the rtte gang? Just daily lives? Say if you want more!

Snotnuts. The trio ever. They don’t know anything

Something i've noticed.

So recently, i've been rewatching Httyd: Rtte, and have noticed something about Heather that I wanted to comment on, even if other people have, too. While I feel that emotionally, Heather was ready to be a spy for Hiccup and the Riders, strategically, she was not for a multitude of reasons. She had been out on her own and away from people for a good period of time, and even when she had been around Hiccup and the rides in DoB (or RoB can't remember when she was introduced), her people skills were quite lacking, and she had never been in a trade where strategy and lying are quite common. On Berk, for the most part, Hiccup and the Riders were very straight forward with her. She was very guarded with her information, unlike Johann who had carefully crafted a persona to distance his actual self from Hiccup, and give information away quietly. Heather was not quiet about information that she dropped. She told them every single mission, and that itself was a huge indicator that she was the mole. Take Viggo when he's introduced in "Maces and Talons, Part 1". When I first watched the show, I didn't notice it, but coming back and watching the way that Viggo introduces himself to both Heather and Dagur (because while he may have had more suspision towards Heather, her and Dagur are still siblings, they could both be in on it) he immediately clocks in on the fact that at least one of them is lying about their allegance. "They say there are two ways to be fooled: One is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe what is." He knows. He knows that one of them is lying. The way that he's framed, the way that he looks back at Heather and Dagur, there's an immediate sense of unease that comes with that situation, and any viewer can feel that with the music and the way that Viggo speaks. Coming back around to Heather, I believe, at least to a certain extent, that she knew that Viggo was onto her. I mean, the man took her out onto the cliffs and talked about weeding out the "wrong-doer in our midst" which is inherently a set up that neither Heather nor Hiccup realized. During Viggo and Heather's talk, I found myself paying attention to Viggo and the way he was talking to Heather. His body language is very calm and somewhat comforting given the circumstances. He puts his arm around her, and immediately is open and honest with her- at least, that's what she thinks- he calls her "my dear," and trusts her with this big mission of apparently finding out the mole, which in Heathers mind is proving to him that she's trustworthy and can handle information. He's giving her a chance to prove herself, or prove to him that she's the mole.

It's brillant, in a way- because who else besides Heather knew the information about the Flightmare? In his own words, Viggo told her to "keep it to ourselves," and Hiccup and the Riders just so happen to know exactly where they are exactly when they're coming? It was very obvious. And, if this had been played right with Hiccup and Heather, they could have avoided this situation all together. If, quite frankly, Hiccup and the riders had let Viggo have the Flightmare, they could have exponentially gained more information because, at least for a little bit, Heather had proved herself to Viggo. So, Tdlr, Viggo is the best written villain of Httyd because of the way that he critically understands people. I truly think about what would could have been if Viggo had been the one to mentor Hiccup. I know that this is probably obvious, but I did want to word vomit about it. So, uh, bye!
