Dragon Prince Drabble: Astrid Vs. CamicaziThe wind rushed past their faces as they grappled on blue scales. Astrid would normally never wield an axe on top of Stormfly, but it was the only way to deflect the rapid sword-strokes. Her feet danced on top of the saddle. Her opponent grinned and also stood.
"Take that, you blonde barbarian- ooh, you're quite good-why don't I give you a nice haircut to show to mummy-see how I perform the Grimsbeard Grapple-"
Astrid deflected the grapple before it spun a hole into her chest. She retaliated with an axe swing to the gut. Camicazi giggled and spun out of the way.
She had never met a more annoying student than the Bog Burglar heir. Camicazi's blond tresses were tangled and filled with the pokiest hairpins, one which she used to pick her teeth while fighting. She kept a wicked grin pasted to her heart-shaped face, and her pockets constantly jangled with pilfered items. During combat, like this current unexpected morning bout, Camicazi insisted on talking while swinging a short bladDragon Prince Drabble: Astrid Vs. Camicazi by ~JayaLaw
HTTYD Easter Special, Chapter NineteenHiccup had never wanted to punch someone more than he wanted to punch these young demigods, including the dark-haired idiot had punched him and frightened away Mud. He knew this was a disrespectful towards Asgard and may have earned him another blow to the stomach. 
So he had given them both-- Vali and Vidar-- a piece of his mind about storming through like they had permission to blow up the place. The twins had perked up on hearing this last bit, and even Snotlout, checking Hookfang's pulse by listening to his neck, looked surprised to see Hiccup's red face and pure frustration. Toothless agreed with every word and glared at the divine brothers. 
Vidar stared at him, at him standing up and calling them "boys." So did Vali. 
"You shouldn't be getting up so easily." He clenched his fist.
 "Go on, hit me again," Hiccup shouted, thrusting out his scrawny chest. The rune stone jutted out. "That'll prove that you're actually sincere about your apologies."

How to Court a Dragon Prince, Chapter Twenty-OneThe night seemed to pass quickly; I slept in the infirmary, and Astrid slipped in to kiss me goodbye.
Normally when Astrid wanted someone awake, she'd shake them out of their bed sheets. This time, though, perhaps sensing that I would freak, she placed a hand on my shoulder and stroked, gently whispering my name. I still woke with a jolt, afraid Alvin had come back. She looked startled as I gasped and struggled with the thick sheets. 
"Sorry. Just leaving soon." 
"What time is it?" I muttered with relief, reaching for her cheek. She grabbed my dry palm and pressed it to her bangs. Toothless cuddled near her.
"After dawn. Stormfly and I are awake enough."
"Be careful. Alvin has spies in the castle; don't let him catch you on the way back."
Her grip tightened. "I will be. Don't let HIM catch you while you're here."
"Touche." I gave her a sleepy smile. "Means I'll probably stay awake so he won't catch me by surprise."
She shoved me with her other hand. "Go to bed; you need yourHow to Court a Dragon Prince, Chapter Twenty-One by ~JayaLaw
HTTYD Easter Special, Chapter EighteenHiccup's Dragon Academy was the most unconventional school that Mud had ever witnessed, and he has seen many alternative programs thanks to Skold's visions. For starters, there was no assigned reading, set curricula, or homework assignments. Everyone learned by doing. Fishlegs had memorized the Book of Dragons, so he needed more confidence when testing Meatlug's ability to swallow catapult rocks. 
Mud, who preferred structure and a fixed curriculum, would have balked on a regular day. He did best when presented with a problem and the means why which to solve it. But something in the babies' faces and in his gut told him to not worry. Something told him that a great calamity would shatter the peaceful ruckus, that Alvin would mount another attack. So he swallowed his tension and joined in.
The twins wanted to keep tossing the chief's discarded carvings into the air as target practice. Everyone was surprised when Hiccup gave up on discussing strategies and Mud volunteered.

Please Read!

★ Welcome to the How To Train Your Dragon group! ★
This group is for artists who loved the movie and would like to submit their art and/or just watch other submissions.

☆ So here are the rules:
• Please only submit finished artwork.

• NO screenshots, manipulations or movie scene GIFs.

• Sketches and doodles are fine, so long as you put them in the SKETCH folder.

• WIP's aren't welcomed.

• We'd prefer if you submitted characters in the movie only, rather than a character heavily based off of Hiccup or Toothless, or any of the other characters within the movie.

• Original characters are okay, though, but not preferred.

• Submissions to the featured folder are automatically declined, no matter how good or "bad" the art.

• This is a Fanart-based group. Stamps, animations, pictures, tutorials, comics, etc, all welcomed and loved. Submit anything you like as long as the character you've drawn or are drawing was in the movie or book! Enjoy yourself, and tell a friend to join.

• No porn, please.

Dragon News: Dreamworks Amusement Park!?

:iconsuper3dcow:

You read that right, Dreamworks is creating their own Amusement Park. They've had plenty of rides based on their films in many places before, but this is the first time the whole park is being build by Dreamworks. This isn't really new news, but nobody's ever mentioned it, so I guess it slipped by a while ago.
It's being built in New Jersey of all places, which I'm sure many East Coasters such as myself are very happy for. It will be inside the Meadowlands Sports Complex, and will be an entirely indoor Amusement Park. The Project was named American Dream, and upon completion, will feature an indoor ice skating rink, an entire Skii slope(Whaaaa!?), many theaters, and of course, the park itself.
Similar to Disney World, it is believed that the creators of the films are helping to design and create a lot of the park. And yes, there will be How to Train Your Dragon themed attractions, the first of their kind.
It is currently expected to have its grand opening in September, 2014. More information can be read here [link] and here [link]
Official website here - [link]

In case you missed it, The Nostalgia Critic did finally do a review of How to Train Your Dragon. He gave it a great review, giving some perspective I hadn't thought of before. Go watch and enjoy it yourself here! [link]

I'm sure many of you already know by now about the images that were leaked for How to Train Your Dragon 2. If not, some can still be found on Tumblr. Dreamworks however was not too happy about them being posted, and so out of great respect, many users removed the images. We can only hope that Dreamworks will now make an official release of images and announcements sometime soon.

Now for my personal tidbit of information. I sent one of my plushes to Dreamworks a couple weeks ago, to which had a fantastic response. I have since had calls from Dean DeBlois and Bonnie Arnold personally thanking me for it. I also just received a package from Jeffrey Katzenberg, containing some of their newest movies, and a very nice letter signed by him. Things may not be over just yet, as I last heard there was some interest in mass producing the plush, and I was told to expect another call from them, so I suppose we shall see if anything happens. Details and photos can be found on my main page, so just click my name to check it out.

That wraps things up. Hope you learned something new, and feel free to post below!

Greetings Club Admins & Members,

As a fellow dragon fan and Temeraire group admin, and your affiliate, I would like to let you know that there is a SPECIAL PROMOTION going on for Temeraire E-book 1 at Random House.

The price is ONLY 0.99 cents for e-book 1 of Temeraire Series. LINK [link]

The promotion is limited! Hurry and get your copy! :D

Why would you WANT to get it/promote this to your club members? Because it is an AWESOME book about dragons. Temeraire Series is a collection of books centering on dragon Temeraire and his human companion Laurence as they fight together in British Aerial Corps against Napoleon's invasion.

Intrigued? ;)

Regards,
Gryphonia of :icontemerairefans:

Hey! I'm not sure if you remember me, the original Group Founder.

I am happy to see that this is still up and running! I am very glad I
chose you, anyone else I wonder if they would have closed it by now.

Keep up the hard work!
