I have decided to write a fanfic for HTTYD. I am currently early in development, but I will be studying the movie closely to find the best way possible of describing the characters. Since I am in school and may be getting a job here in the next few weeks it will take time for me to attempt to make this. However here are my notes so far: Title
Characters• Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III • Stoick the Vast • Gobber the Belch • Astrid Hofferson • Snotlout • Fishlegs • Tuffnut • Ruffnut • Toothless Plot
Time Period• One month fter HTTYD Locations• Island of Berk References• Just the movie Ideas/Expansions/Notes• Hiccup and team continues to be heroes • Hiccup and Toothless “next level” training • Hiccup and Astrid relationship • Expand on other characters • New Characters? • Humor • Story-driven • There may be an impending “doom”. MAYBE • A little darker, but not too much. • Somebody may die (Most likely not) I'd appreciate suggestions you may have. Now watch the series and second movie destroy everything in my fanfic!

It sounds interesting, I would like to read it. I suggest that it would if it would be like a month after the movie rather than a day.
Good luck on making it!

I was going to possibly include Hiccup coming to terms with his missing leg, but after watching the movie again it looked like he came to terms with it.

*Update on the project* Finally chose how the beginning. Not looking too good for our heroes.
I'm still working on the story, but I expect Chapter One to be ready for reading in about a week. Next Friday sound good?

Keep on watching the movie for ideas. That's what I did. I watch the movie once every day, with English subtext so I can study how each character talks.
I also listen to the soundtrack to HTTYD non stop. I try to play out scenes in my head that flow with the music.
Research is also a very good idea. Thank goodness for Wikipedia. They have a good HTTYD version with information about the books, and movie. They have detailed profiles of all the known dragons and charactes (Some of the dragons are user created though. The dragon I chose, I believe, is a user created one, but it really helped me come up with a very believable story.

I've actually decided to wait to post the first chapter until I have the enitre story and plot thought out. As of now I've only thought up just bout half of the story, so I'm going to make a lot of edits and tweaks.
Infact, just the other day while working/reading my fanfic I found quite a few mistakes, some of them being pretty big.

Not quite. College is being so wrong to me right now, and I have to get a job or I will lose internet access. That will not happen!

I have decided to complete this fanfic. Instead of doing one large one, I'm going to try to do shorter stories, that way I can actually finish one and start on another.
