The next animation on my list of HTTYD scenes to remake is the one where Toothless (Thunder in my case) gets controlled by the alpha dragon. Anyone who’s seen HTTYD2 is going to remember that exact scene….

and you know someone is going to have to die.

When you can, where do you go outside of the castle?

Do you like being around people or do you like to be alone most of the time?

What do you like to think about when no one else is around?

What are your favorite hobbies and pastimes?

What do you have in your pockets right now? Do you have a habit of carrying anything with you…[Read more]

Oh. Why would you like to go to the fairie realm?

“I’m… curious. Who wouldn’t be? They’re very mysterious. And they visit our realm all the time. It’s not fair we don’t get to see theirs.”

How has your kingdom made alliances with the fairies before? Do you know the details of how that happened?

“I am mostly referring to legends and ru…[Read more]

You’ve already got some wonderful stuff, but I’ll throw some more in because I too have free will.

Tsar Peter the great tried to run away from his kingdom but didn’t make it onto the ship he was stowaying on because he was too tall to go unnoticed and was recognized.

There’s a Scottish noble family that according to legend has…[Read more]

What is… your favorite color?

The corner of Merlin’s mouth quirks. “Blue.”

Do you or have you ever had any pets?

“My family has owned lab rats, fish, sea monkeys, cats, new mother dogs in foster, insects, worms, isopods, all sorts of microorganisms. I’ve always wanted a bird because I’m going to work with them someday, but I guess y…[Read more]

Oh. Why would you like to go to the fairie realm?

How has your kingdom made alliances with the fairies before? Do you know the details of how that happened?

What is your family like?

What does a normal day in your life look like?

Do you like your royal responsibilities?

I have an idea. I might jump forward in time later and also have you interview post-meeting-Rook-and-River Ellis at some point.

Ah. Do you normally have manservants and guardians following you around? That must feel stifling.

“Yes. It is.”

Why do you enjoy hunting and fencing?

“I just find it fun. I enjoy being active and outside.…[Read more]

Awesome. *clicks open pen*

What is… your favorite color?

Do you or have you ever had any pets?

How well do you usually do in school? And are you homeschooled or go to public school?

What’s your favorite thing about yourself?

Do you have many hobbies?

Your mother sounds kind. Did you have nightmares because of your special gift? Or were your nightmares related to something else?

“Alright, then. Wheedle what you can out of me.” Merlin takes the pretzel sticks and puts one halfway into his mouth like a cigar.

Don’t worry. It’s just a questionnaire that’s only for fun. I’ll leave this notepad here when I’m done and you can do whatever you want with it. Read it, show it to your brother, burn it. Does that sound alright to you? And, come on, you can’t say no to snacks.
*opens my ginormous snack bag and offers him a bag of pretzels*

How would you describe yourself in three words?

“Um… Adventurous? I enjoy hunting and similar activities. Then also Seer and Prince. My main duties.”

Who is your best friend?

“Beckett’s not bad. The son of Lord Fenwick in the west. I enjoy talking with him and he is a decent fencer. He helped me get rid of my most recent shadow of a…[Read more]

Merlin watches you for a little longer, his eye glittering, before he strides over to the kitchen counter and sits down across from you. His voice is quieter and much less emotional than his brother’s. “I’m not sure what all this is about, really.”

Hello! How is your day going? Would you like to sit down? I just have a few questions. I also brought some snacks if you’d like.

*climbs in through the window* *sets up a chair in front of the previous interviewer, facing Cosmo*

Cosmo, putting away his pie tin and oven mitts, pauses mid-movement. He watches you curiously.

Okay, my turn. *pulls out notepad and pen* I am here to interview your brother.

“Oh. Okay.” He takes off his mitts and waves them at you as he…[Read more]

Why did I read Ellis’ voice in a British accent when you’re the one who is supposed to hear British accents from my characters

Who I am doesn’t really matter. I’m just here to interview you. I promise, anything you say will be kept secret.

How would you describe yourself in three words?

Ellis: “Yes, alright. I am not busy at the moment. Who are you?”

*climbs in through the window* *sets up a chair in front of the previous interviewer, facing Cosmo*

Okay, my turn. *pulls out notepad and pen* I am here to interview your brother.

You’re Ellis Stormwatcher, aren’t you? We were both sent here so I can ask you a few questions. I hope you don’t mind if I do that.

I’m just doing some stuff at community college, to get basic classes out of the way. Spanish has been a little time-consuming but it’s fun!

You two understood the assignment!! This is exactly the stuff I want.

This is a lovely smorgasbord of information. I’m taking notes. I will be back to look at this again and look all of this up. Absolutely delightful replies.

Thank you for the ideas! I will add them to the list. Naming pets is a little harder than I remember it being. It’s been a while since I had some of my own. All of your suggestions are spiffing little names, indeed.

I’m tagging a bunch of you. Firstly, I doubt you will be offended, and secondly, I have free will. (You may ignore, of course.)

UHM. NAMES.

1. Butterbread

2. Charcoal

3. Ermmmm… Gary and Jeff.

4. Cookie

5. Potato

Okay so only two of those are actual names… And they are just the first ones I thought of. Also I want one now 🥹 They are so cute.

Moth

“Please, listen to me,” Moth whispered to the third arrow as he pulled it back.

He supposed he must stop imagining anything sometimes. Why did every single object and living thing siphon off Moth’s mind? It was deeply bothersome.

He had to resist getting worked up and listen to Ari’s advice. He took a deep breath a…[Read more]

I got some guinea pigs yesterday. :] Does anyone have any name suggestions? They’re both boys.

Like yes, I had just texted my sister saying that the character was the most romantic figure in modern literature

I love this rant about your specific relationship to this fictional character and how you perceive him in specific instances. 😂 Oh goodness

Ah, okay. That makes sense…

Bryce 

A dry laugh escaped Bryce before he could stop it. “I got a lot of things to figure out, and most of it is really boring.” 

His eyes surveyed the plethora of books around them. He had so many resources to search through, about so much stuff he did not care about.

And if he we…[Read more]

Unfortunately, the pot I ordered initially was too damaged to use so I have to get another.

That is unfortunate 😵‍💫 Do you have any other plants? If I may ask lol. I grew zinnias this summer, and tomato vines. I successfully killed a succulent  😶‍🌫️I’m not great with indoor plants, apparently.

Currently Communication Sciences and Disorders. It’s a lot of fun, if a lot of work.

*Currently fighting a headache that was probably due to stress over an exam this morning*

Great!

I understand. What are you guys studying in college?

@keilah-h

Totally understandable. I’m planning to join CWW next year too, so I’ll look forward to you being on there too!

YAY! I’ll look for you on there when it starts!

I am barely keeping up with my college classes and work as it is, so I’m afraid I won’t be joining.

Same as Koshka. I’m juggling schoolwork and writing at the same time, and although I write a decent amount most days, it’s easier for me to keep the habits I have now. Not sure if it’s worth joining an unfamiliar challenge.

That’s just me. I hop…[Read more]

Your colors are great!! Your practicing has really payed off.
