The Great Beyond

you can still create fanworks when it comes to old media!! PLEASE do!! there are always going to be new fans who will appreciate it, and veteran fans who are dying for new content and new perspectives. also, less than a year is NOTHING. the original Star Trek series was on TV six decades ago and there are still people losing their minds over it, writing stories and reblogging gifsets daily, and that's only one example.

You are capable of harm

You have some level of power and agency

Ergo it is your responsibility to communicate your needs and boundaries

If you lie to someone about something being okay when it isn't, that is on you

Something being a trauma response doesn't exempt it from harming your relationships and the other people in them

Enabling your trauma responses will not make them go away, and it is your responsibility to work on yourself for your own wellbeing as well as the people around you

Being A Victim cannot be a pillar of your identity forever, and being victimized does not make you incapable of harming other people (see above)

You are not a mouse in a jean jacket you are an eel with a gun / adult human being who can use your words even if it's Scary

I hate femboys.

And scrawny men who are always portrayed as feminine and in need of others.

Yes. I am talking about Hiccup Haddock the 3rd.

I genuinely cannot fucking STAND fanart of Hiccup where he's portrayed as some meek, innocent, and pure little boy. Like yeah, he's scrawny and was never usually one for violence, but that doesn't mean he's weak or in need of others' help 24/7.

The amount of drawings I see of him where he's that femboy stereotype is insane. I loose braincells at the sight of them. Also, I genuinely do feel like, sick when I see them, my stomach starts doing flips and tricks.

I love Hiccup as much as the next httyd fan, but HOLY FLYING FUCK. There is SO MUCH more to this character other than "Scrawny uwu femboy who needs his big alpha protector all the time :3" Like, Hiccup is genuinely talented and can handle himself when it comes to combat, he's not a damn baby omg-

That's another thing, he's so fucking infantilized in half of the fanart I see of him, it irks me.

And listen, I don't care if someone else is or likes femboys (Is there another term for this fuckass word!?), but the way they're mostly portrayed in media disgusts me. Maybe it's because I'm a trans man and have been called a femboy in the past

Speaking of- I also hate being called a femboy. The idea of someone still seeing me as feminine, even though I try my best to pass as a guy, makes me sick. And most of the time, its my irl friends calling me this. I've told them to stop, that I wasn't comfortable being called that, yet they continue. (I need to stop associating myself with them.)

Uhhhhhhh

Yeah, that's it. I hate when Hiccup's portrayed as a femboy, I hate being called a femboy, I HATE FEMBOYS.

(The same people who have the trans hiccup headcanon too.)

I see Mr Wilford from Snowpiercer as transgender because he’s the last person you expect to be trans because he’s a somewhat pudgy man in his sixties portrayed by Sean Bean.

They see Hiccup as trans because they want him to be a broodmare. Which as someone who is sapphic. I’m far too lesbian adjacent for this shit, jfc. Pregnancy just drives me up the wall. What’s the point with the “ooooughugh babies!!” that some cis people have an obsession with.

</3

I'm gonna add to this.

It stifles adult's creativity too.

Don't put restrictions on people's creativity.

That Mary-Sue OC you made as a child? That's a template for a well rounded character. Develop that shit. Flesh them out. Make them even better. Figure out what superpowers they really need and what ones are just extra. Let the character grow with you.

But you won't have that template to work off of if you were told not to make it.

Also, let people have power fantasies. Let that bullied isolated kid have an OC who's super powerful and surrounded by friends.

You've gotta love trans folks more than you hate TERFs.

You've gotta love your unhoused neighbors more than you hate the billionaires.

You've gotta love immigrants more than you hate ICE.

You've gotta love queer kids more than you hate christian fundamentalists.

You've gotta love fat people more than you hate the diet industry.

You've gotta love disabled people more than you hate the insurance companies.

You've gotta love your fellow humans more than you hate the worst that humanity has to offer. You don't have to like every person you're fighting for, and you sure as hell don't have to give up your righteous anger, but hate is ultimately corrosive.

The council has decided I have a 17 in dex.

What if HTTYD but cowboys?? Finally finished the lines and colours for the gang 👇

Dragons and their horse breed counterparts;

Toothless - Black Mustang

Stormfly - Andulasian

Hookfang - a very tall Arabian 🤣

Meatlug - Icelandic Horse

Barf & Belch - Splashed Quarter Horses

So what if the berserkers were Inuit or basic-unspecified-indigenous-northern-folk, cause I have done ZERO research on this. I think it adds more representation, (given this is a kids show and representation, even if it isn’t all that realistic, is extremely important at a formative age) and it adds more flavor to the world.

And then BAM, it hit me, maybe I would hate Heather less if she looked less basic!

Here is the brief sketch. I think I got a lot more character into her design than “her hair is black cause she’s sad :(”
