The Alphas.

The Alphas.

This one took me forever! *panting* Hiccup’s gear killed me. So I freed Toothless from the saddle and gave him the automatic tailfin, so that Hiccup could ride him like momma Valka rides Cloudjumper… like a true badass dragon lord!

I also wanted to share some thoughts about HTTYD 3 and the various theories I’m reading online.

“As Hiccup fulfills his dream of creating a peaceful dragon utopia, Toothless’s discovery of an untamed, elusive mate draws the Night Fury away. When danger mounts at home and Hiccup’s reign as village chief is tested, both dragon and rider must make impossible decisions to save their kind.”

Sooo. I have recently read all kinds of tragedies about this, because yeah, there are fans that want to see a ‘strong finale’; I have even found a fake soundtrack on Youtube with titles like ‘Thanks Buddy, See You In The Valhalla’. DAFUQ??? I had a heart attack! Many fans believe that Toothless is gonna die in the 3rd movie to save Hiccup. I mean, really? Do you really think Dreamworks is wishing to go as far as killing a major character, maybe their most loved creation? Gosh! It’s still a film for young audiences, just think about the mass trauma that would result. Idk, it seems pretty damn extreme and I really don’t think the Studios are willing to risk being lynched by the fandom.

The hints about Hiccup and Toothless saying goodbye and the bittersweet ending are clear enough, but still. The whole franchise, tv series, and everything related are freaking based on the wonderful relationship between Hiccup and Toothless! Breaking it up so drastically would make the very foundations of the franchise collapse, and I don’t think they want this. There has to be something else.

Then, Dean DeBlois said that Drago Bludvist will return as a more complex villain, along with a brand new villain named Grimmel and voiced by Fred Murray Abraham. I think there’s more to Drago than what we have seen in HTTYD 2.

Most importantly, a mate. A mate for Toothless. First of all, FINALLY! Our lovely black-scaled fella deserves to get the girl too. And if this is true, I think the plot for the 3rd installment will more or less pivot on the appearance of this female Night Fury: something tells me that she may play a part in Hiccup and Toothless’s separation, but also that she may somehow be related to Drago and Grimmel. So, in a few words, these characters might shake the foundations of Berk’s dragon utopia, forcing Hiccup and Toothless to separate… but not forever! At least, I hope so…

Okay, I’ve run out of hypotheses. I can’t wait. And 2019 is so far away. *cries*

In the meantime, enjoy the drawing, and let me hear your ideas if you wish.

I. WANT. A. CAT. JUST. LIKE. THAT.

Cats or Toothless!?

I wanted to draw a Gothic pinup, and I chose @aciddollpinup because why not!

Toothless Playful Moves

Endometriosis is a chronic, complex condition in which the layer of tissue that normally covers the inside of the womb (endometrium) grows outside of it. This tissue flakes off and bleeds every month: when it does so inside the womb, it is fine; when it does so outside the womb, the bleeding stagnates inside the body, irritating and scarring the surrounding tissues and organs.

Millions of women in the world suffer from endometriosis. Most of them have no symptoms at first, but they start to notice that something’s wrong when they have strange abdominal pain, when they are infertile, and when they have miscarriages.

The causes of endometriosis are still not entirely clear, so there is no definitive cure. Being it a relatively new disease, its recognition by health authorities is still walking baby steps.

I have severe endometriosis. The drawing represents my belly, an eerie artwork of scars resulting from three surgeries. I will have to deal with this condition forever, and a possible pregnancy would be risky. Now I am fine, but being fine is expensive: every day, at the same time, I take a latest generation medicine that costs me a lot of money. This medicine is one of a kind, it has no affordable generics, it is sold only through a non-repeat prescription, and above all it is not covered by the National Healthcare System of my Country.

This leads me to think of all the people in the world who suffer from chronic diseases and have to pay shocking sums to get the cures they rightfully need. Those who can’t afford such expensive treatments go through a living hell every day, and nobody seems to give a damn.

Healthcare should be a right for everybody, a mission, a safe haven, not a bunch of bureaucracy and money in the hands of pharmaceutical corporations, who get obscenely rich behind people’s suffering.

I won’t go as far as hoping that in 2018 every problem will be magically solved, but with this little piece of artwork I’m sharing today I hope that all the women who suffer from endometriosis, and all the people who have chronic illness, will talk to each other, come together and claim the right to be decently taken care of without the goddamn problem of a cure being expensive or affordable. It’s life we’re talking about, not luxury goodies! Ill people fight a battle every day, and healthcare systems are supposed to help them without charging them with the extra weight of expensive cures: if someone cannot pay, they should be cured for free. You understand, big shots of Pharma Corps? For free! Because being healthy is our most important right, and cures must be provided for everybody.
