Hello, dear Patrons!

I’m here with another oneshot that continues my journey through the weirdness that is Crossover Country. This particular fic is listed as a crossover between the 2000 film Dinosaur (a film about an Iguanadon raised by lemurs) and the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, but then there’s this in the summary;

this Story is a Triple Crossover with Aladar, Toothless, Hiccup, and Sheldon. But when Sheldon pulls the Biggest Prank, All of the Four Characters gets Electrocuted, and were Send to Somewhere.

The fic is actually a triple crossover! Because trying to reconcile multiple disparate canons always works out so well. Aladar is the main character from Dinosaur and Hiccup and Toothless are from HTTYD, but I have no idea who Sheldon is. Must be an OC or someone from the unknown third canon.

Also, it looks like the author was visited by Ike the Italics Demon’s cousin Randall The Random Capitalization Imp.

Hey guys I’m back from Thanksgiving Break, and I hope You like this Story, and I’ll see you next time.

Well, that’s certainly pertinent information for me to have now, at the end of January, well after any holiday breaks would have occurred.

—WARNING—

—POTENTIAL TRIGGERS AHEAD—

 

Hello, dear Patrons.

This fic is one of those works that starts out insipid enough but then smacks you over the head like a baseball bat built of bad ideas. I don’t usually rewrite my introductions because I like to experience the fic along with you, but I do feel the need to warn you, my Patrons – this fic contains massive amounts of abuse directed towards a child as well as several mentions of suicide and what could be considered a veiled reference to eating disorders. It is very badly written and doesn’t give a lot of specific details, but those that are given make me want to track down the author and punch them in the face. The author’s attitude towards females in general, based on their other works, turns my stomach. If you are at all sensitive to these subjects, I strongly recommend giving this one a pass.

I now return you to our regularly scheduled riff.

Hello, Patrons!

I’m here with a short little fic from the How to Train Your Dragon series that has been languishing in my pile for a while now; over a year in fact. I don’t really remember why I added it, but I’m sure it’ll come back to me.

Let’s take a look at the summary, such as it is;

its about hate and abuse sory about the speeling i have a beat reader now who will help me

Something tells me this “beat” reader has their work cut out for them. I’m going to go ahead and add a trigger warning to the top of the riff, because any time I see “hate and abuse” in a summary it rarely ends well. Of course,  I could be wrong. Let’s take a look at the first paragraph, shall we?

(This takes place a few months after the movie) In the place where the Queen of dragons had once lived all was destroyed. However, in the rubble there was a egg that survived it. The egg of the Dragon queen. The egg moved and moved. It finally came was a female Night Fury. She had scales as black as night and a birth mark that looked like the Queen of dragons. She waddled out of the rubble. (Here is the dragon’s POV)

Welcome back, dear Patrons!

I’m here with the last chapter of this increasingly off-the-rails fic. Joining me once again is local pirate expert, Syl.

:whimpering groans drift out of a darkened corner:

Or what used to be Syl.

“Do you have to be so loud?”

Oh, I’m sorry; does baby’s head have an ouchie? :slaps palms hard on desk, producing a loud bang: Oops.

“You are a cruel woman.”

Hey, you were the one who started the drinking contest in the Barracks. Did you really think you could out-drink a seven ton tyrannosaur? He uses a fifty gallon barrel for a beer stein.

“I thought I could handle the dragon, okay?”

Do you think you can handle this last chapter?

“I’ll do my best.”

Hello once again, dear Patrons!

We’ve passed the halfway point in this little fic, it’s all downhill from here.

“When was it going uphill?”

Good point. In case you’re wondering, I’ve managed to bribe Syl into returning for another chapter. It only took a barrel of my finest whisky.

“Lucky for you, I have the ethical integrity of a dockside whore.”

And I really appreciate that about you.

So what happened in the last chapter? In a departure from the standard narrative flow, the author decided that the second chapter would be the perfect place for a prologue/ backstory info-dump briefly covering the history of the “pirates”.

“I am not calling them that.”

I don’t blame you.

Hello, my lovely Patrons! I’m back with another chapter of this short little pirate-themed mash-up and once again accompanying me is Syl.

“Why am I here again?”

Because I don’t know anything about pirates.

“Neither does the child writing this thing.”

… I have booze?

:props bare feet up on desk: “Works for me.”

So let’s review what happened last time; :flips through notes: Not a whole lot by the looks of it. Our fearless pirate captain Elsa scattered her crew on various missions…

“That have nothing to do with being a pirate.”

And was on her way to steal the crown jewels…

“Which are nothing but a dinky tiara.”

When she decided to hire a couple of local goons to do the job so she could chase after some man-candy.

“He’s barely boy-candy.”

That just sounds so wrong.
