Hiccup: Sleep is the body’s best safety mechanism.
Astrid: How so?
Hiccup: It keeps you from screwing up for 8 hours.
Tuffnut: Hiccup said its my turn with the brain cell.
Ruffnut: Square up.
Pansy, crying: Oh my God, I must look like a mess right now.
Draco, reaching into his pocket: Here.
Draco: Have some concealer.
Tuffnut: I’m sick and tired of being called 'mortal' like, you don’t know that. Neither do I. I have never died even ONCE. Nothing has been proven yet. Stop making assumptions. It’s rude.

Hi! Thanks for asking! My favourite fandom is probably Harry Potter just because it’s such an amazing world and I absolutely love Hermione. But I also love httyd (my favourite character is Astrid ofc)
Tuffnut: Can we get a birthday cake?
Hiccup: It’s not your birthday.
Tuffnut: The cake won’t know!
Ever since the release of jwct season 3, I've been wondering why Yaz was so set on following Brooklynn and saving her. Don't get me wrong – I'm not criticising my girl (I do criticise the way she talked about this with Sammy but not the decision itself), but I couldn't help thinking, "woah, she's very firm about this", and "but where does this decisiveness come from?"
I realized that, ultimately it is all rooted in "how everyone remembers Brooklynn".
We must take a couple of steps back and think about the flashbacks we got in jwct season 1/2. They say a lot about how the Nublar Five remembered Brooklynn, which memories were the strongest, or which bubbled up the most frequently.
Ben remembers Brooklynn as a friend who is a little bit adventurous, who listens to his crazy ideas, and who is a great companion. It is a fond and warm memory.
Sammy remembers Brooklynn in her family's house – Brooklynn is a part of a family, an obvious part of her life. (which makes her betrayal a "double" family betrayal – not only was Brooklynn a found family, but also Sammy remembers her in her biological family's space)
Kenji remembers Brooklynn in a moment that combines beauty, love, and heartbreak. His memories are bittersweet, very intense – but don't focus on regret (there's no "I could have done this other way).
Darius remembers love and guilt. Heavy cross to carry. He remembers Brooklynn through a series of his mistakes – the accidental confession, being late to the meeting. I think that this is also why he isolated himself so much – his grieving process was different because "his" Brooklynn was entwined with a negative perception of himself.
And then, there's Yaz. Yaz relates Brooklynn with her recovery, with working on her PTSD. Yaz remembers Brooklynn as someone who helped her when she felt misunderstood and lonely in her struggles. Yaz has been very visibly struggling with PTSD since jwcc, and it seems that while others learnt how to live with the trauma, she was still "stuck" – or rather, she felt stuck. Brooklynn was the one who helped her in a way that Yaz needed, and she was there at least during some part of her recovery.
Yaz remembers Brooklynn as someone who helped her, so it is very natural that she wants to return the favor – not because she feels she "owes" Brooklynn anything, but because helping is what defines Yaz's definition of "Brooklynn".
Hermione: Just a bit of light reading!
Hermione: Don’t worry, I still have a few books up my sleeve.
Ron: I think you mean cards-
Harry: No, she doesn’t.
Hermione: *pulling out Hogwarts, A History from her sleeve* No, I don’t.
*Dagur is cooking*
Fishlegs: Any chance that’s for me?
Dagur: It’s for Astrid and Hiccup. I’m planning on making some bad choices tonight, and I need them on my side.
Heather: I never realized the forethought that went into being a disappointment.
