My Friend Made A Comment About My Autism But I Never Told Her I Have Autism So I Looked Up At Her And

One thing that I wished they kept throughout the franchise was Hiccup being the smallest Viking. I wish they kept him scrawny and stringy and shorter than Astrid and the rest of the gang.

Hiccup was ostracised by his entire community for many reasons, one being his weak build and small stature.

Snotlout may be shorter than Hiccup in the movies, but he's got bigger muscles and puffs himself up. He makes up for it by acting like a proper Viking, being loud and obnoxious and always ready to start a fight - that and he can actually lift a weapon.

The name Hiccup is meant to mean small and frail - the runt of a litter or the black sheep. I want Hiccup to be the absolute epitome yet antithesis of his name. I want Hiccup to be small and unassuming and shorter than the rest. But I also want him to be Great. I want him to be brave and stubborn and hard to kill. Awkward and sarcastic at the worst of times but still kind and friendly and always dependable.

I want him to be everything a Viking is and isn't. I want him to be a peacekeeper and a warrior, an adventurer and an inventor, the son of the chief and the hiccup of his tribe. Someone who can't wield the same weapons as his tribesmen so he makes his own. Someone who wants to uphold the traditions and culture of his people yet always thinks outside of the box. The representation of this new age that's fast approaching, the line in the middle where old and new clash.

I want Hiccup to dress like a Viking, talk like a Viking, eat, sleep and walk like a Viking yet be the very last thing anyone ever thinks of when they think of a Viking. And most of all I want there to be absolutely nothing wrong with that.

I wish they hadn't made him tall and appealing in the end. I wish they'd kept him the way he was. A Viking born too early and too weak in the middle of one of the harshest winters ever experienced by the barbaric archipelago. A Viking who beat the odds and survived. He's braved every terrible winter since his birth and lives in a place where it snows nine months of the year and hails the other three. He can endure bone-freezing chills and frozen oceans but never fails to catch the common cold. He's always been a bit sickly, ever since he was a child, but he always bounces back. He's got scars and a missing leg and his hands are filled with callouses, cuts and burns, but he's soft-spoken and loves to read and never skips a meal yet can never seem to get any bigger.

I wish they could have kept Hiccup the way he was. I wish they didn't have to change him in order to have him become a worthy hero.

I wish the entire village could look at their little runt of a chief and still crack jokes about his long-overdue growth spurt. I want them to look at him and be filled with pride, cause despite the fact that he hasn't grown an inch since he was sixteen, there isn't a single person on Berk who can look at him without seeing just how far he's come.

I love how everyone banded together to look into the welfare of this kitten

People that never read the httyd books will never understand the positive impact that shit has on a child. (I had nightmares for months)

Just started reading heroes of Olympus my favourite is Leo because he says booyah

God is homophobic and he has it out for us dawg 😭

why am i having such bad period cramps i literally have they/them in my bio

In the beginning of the first httyd book Hiccup says "They are crawling back into the sea from whence they came, leaving not a bone, not a fang, in the earth for the men of the future to remember them by." Referring to the dragons and it's cool because that's what he said in the end of the third movie :)

sick of this anti-aging obsession. let's go in the opposite direction. i want more characters who are hardened & grizzled & have a face lined with the harrowing tribulations of time--and then halfway through the narrative u find out they're 27

AAAAHHHH I CAN’T BELIEVE I JUST NOTICED THIS, BUT AT THE END OF HTTYD WHEN EVERYONE WAS GOING TOWARDS HICCUP BECAUSE HE FINALLY WOKE UP, HICCUP WAS LIMPING AND STOICK SAW AND HE HELPED HOLD HICCUP UP TO WALK AND I JUST AJKDFLSJSL

AND IDK IF YOU CAN SEE IT, BUT HICCUP HAS A REALLY BIG SMILE ON HIS FACE. UGH JUST STAB ME IN THE HEART. IT’LL HURT LESS

I feel like I need a little nickname for you people to call me. Does anyone have any suggestions?? Maybe Milo, Bailey, Table, Cable idk I just feel like I need a name that isn't not0an0alien
