I Hate Them (affectionate)

I just really like this narrator design

Something’s charming about old man Kevan with an adventure line demon tail

have you guys gotten the yaoi ending 😳

When paper and art block don’t mix, I fold.

I can never think too much about Httyd 1 Astrid before I get too emotional.

At 15, this girl was so bitter and harsh and kept everyone at a distance and hard on everyone, including herself, and she didn't allow any emotions of hers to shine through beyond anger and its varying shades. I mean, how could she?

She grew up around blood and death, destined to inherit the same war her parents and grandparents did, stuck in an endless cycle of violence no one truly knew how it got started in the first place other than the very plausible reason that their enemy was simply cruel, unreasonable and would never stop coming. Not until one side finally eradicated the other, never knowing that the annihilation of one side would without a doubt automatically mean the destruction of the other before the unknown third party in this war, the Red Death, inevitably moved on to rinse and repeat elsewhere.

Astrid had no prospects for the future and she knew it. She would live out her life as a warrior, fight and get injured until the day she would inevitably die, probably in battle. Except maybe she would get to see her parents die a brutal death before she goes. Maybe even her future husband. Maybe even her future kids. That is, if she even got that far in life.

So no wonder she just stood by and watched with a vaguely sad look as Hiccup was bullied. No wonder her best pieces of advice were "he's never where he should be" and "pick which side you're on." No wonder she got pissed as hell at Hiccup when she fought to get just the littlest bit of an edge in a cruel and unjust world only to have it stolen right out from under her by the chief's son, who basically breezed his way through dragon training thanks to Toothless. No wonder she was ready to tell on Hiccup's ass when she found out he was making friends with the enemy, the same one who would come at night and steal their food and destroy their homes, leaving them to starve exposed to the elements.

And no wonder, when Hiccup shows her that a bleak future of endless cruelty isn't the only option for her anymore, she blooms open like the most beautiful goddamn flower in the entire north. She loves Snoggletog, experimenting with cooking, pranks, big romantic gestures. She gets truly in touch with her emotions and finds it important to build up the guy who literally gave her a future.

Astrid makes me so emotional, guys...

Does the Lamb ever find out that headbutting = affection for cats?

they do, but narinder also learns. he has lots of cats to share gestures with, but lamb is the last sheep ever so i think its sweet if he works on picking up some of their cultural things

I love this so muchhhhh

Everybody’s posting this most awesome Duck art for Donald (and Della, and also apparently Daisy’s?) birthday,

and I wanna say how happy I am! Thank you guys for being such an awesome community. I love how we all come together for Donald Duck and his family, and all the characters in his universe. I’ve encountered the thoughts and musings, writings and ramblings, and art and sketches of so many talented people just on this website.

You’ve inspired me so much and given me so much joy.

Has Donald made me happy? Of course!

But I wouldn’t be as obsessed with Donald as I am if it weren’t for this community. You’re the people who have given me fanfics and analyses that have haunted my brain in the best way, drew fanarts and created art pieces that brightened my mood just by looking at them on a screen.

And, most importantly,

you’ve

been

my

friends

To all the people who I have chatted and contemplated Ducks over, I want you to know how much every conversation means to me.

Thank you.

This community started 90 years ago today, when Donald Fauntleroy Duck graced the screen for the first time on June 9, 1934.

He is one of the most important things in my life. But he wouldn’t have the same impact on me if it weren’t for this community.

Happy Birthday to Donald, Della, and Daisy Duck

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!!!

I posted non fandom origami here earlier, so why not crochet while we’re at it.

Have a dapper penguin.

How do you think they killed time?

My favorite train guy

Been drawing an Ingo every day I’ve been working on art for my warmups, almost a month’s worth here ^^ I’m still trying to figure out those dang coat lapels!!
