Eerie quotes from HTTYD

Note: Not all of these quotes are exactly right, but you get the gist.
These are some of my observations, and I was wondering if anyone else agreed. (Also commented this to thenightfuryfan)
Anyway..
It's funny (not really figure of speech) how the lines in HTTYD 1 fit and are almost like ironic and painful to think about.. Like these...
"I- I screwed up- I should have told you before now I- just- take this out on me, be mad at me but please- just don't hurt Toothless!" and "He's not dangerous!" This one because its almost like foreshadowing that Toothless could kill someone, or had the ability to, yet Hiccup refuses to believe it; he views him to be as gentle as a kitten, and can't bear to think that he would ever hurt anyone. Like most of us, we came to believe Toothless was more cute then dangerous, lest we forget he IS a *night fury* and he can be *dangerous*... Who knows what his wild kind were like, how dangerous they were, or if they happened to be gentle like Toothless. In my mind, in that zombie moment where Toothless was controlled, I was thinking "Holy crap.. thats a night fury."
Which brings me to this one...
"Night Fury. Speed: Unknown. Size: Unknown. The unholy offspring of lightning and death itself. Never engage this dragon. Your only chance, hide and pray it does not find you." This is compelling because in this quote (I think I got it right, couldn't find the exact quote).. In this quote Hiccup is reading about Night Furies and the eerie line that ran through my mind during and after the movie were. "The unholy offspring of lightning and death itself. Never engage this dragon. Your only chance, hide and pray it does not find you." This is really portrayed in HTTYD 2, when Toothless is almost unrecognizable. It really hit me that THIS was a wild night fury, or one that Hiccup might have encountered in a death match before he met Toothless. (since Toothless was out of his mind at the moment and had no recollection of what he did, seemingly.. For after he shot and came out of it, when the bewilderbeast turned his head, he didn't seem to understand what happened until he sniffed Stoick and Hiccup pushed him away.)
"It's a mess. You must feel horrible. You've lost everything. Your father, your tribe, your best friend...." Another eerie quote. It directly depicts both HTTYD 1 and 2. In HTTYD 1 he lost his fathers respect and was disowned, lost his friend Toothless for he was captured and likely deemed put to death in that moment, and his tribe for they all had a grudge against him now. In HTTYD 2 it depicts it in a different way, where after his dad died he lost everything. He lost his dad to death, he lost Toothless to Drago and the bewilderbeasts control (his best friend), and he lost his tribe for they were all still on Berk with no way to get to him nor help him, and were all subject to the wrath of the bewilderbeast and Toothless, along with Drago's army of dragons.
If you can think of any other quotes like this let me know, but these are some of the eerie ones that I just couldn't get out of my head after the movie, along with the image of Toothless hunched over zombie like after firing the shot.
Also, just thought of this. The beehive quote. Where "It's like a giant beehive, she's the queen and she controls them." (I think I got that kinda right...) makes sense in HTTYD 2 to the bewilderbeast. He is the king, the alpha, and has control over them. This also gives more clarity to HTTYD 1 (if you remember Toothless was very briefly almost zombie like when delivering Astrid and Hiccup to the queen, in a sense. If anyone remembers Hiccup tried soothing him and Toothless shoved him off, pupils slits. Looking back, he was likely under the control of the queen. But was the control of the queen nearly as strong? Probably not, I am guessing, which is why Toothless still had some of his sense about him and was able to fly out with Hiccup and Astrid)
