First Flight. [video/action for new bark town.]

[For anyone browsing the network, they might notice a gangly, brown-haired teen flashing in and out of video. Technology this advanced might be foreign to Hiccup, but he's always been pretty good at working things out and soon enough he seems satisfied enough to keep it on video.

And is he wearing a dorky cape over his usual clothes? He is totally wearing a dorky cape.]


Uhh...

[Uncertain!]

Hello? I must be crazy... Uhmn, if anyone's listening, I could use a little help?

[A more thoughtful look as he goes back to fiddling with the device. A frown follows.]

New Bark Town? Hmn, I guess these guys don't know how to spell Berk... Why can't vikings see grammar is important, too?

[Hiccups gives the feed A Look before shutting it off.]

Well... [Hmmn, maybe that was a bit dramatic. Then again, vikings are pretty extreme! Hiccup shrugs.]

I'm supposed to kill a dragon tomorrow, but since my best friend is a dragon, I'm not really seeing that happening... So maybe they won't kick me out, but they'll certainly see me as even more of a disappointment, which I'm pretty sure they didn't think was possible.

[ Yikes, that's pretty terrible. ]

Sorry to hear about that. Must be tough.

[Hiccup shrugs weakly.]

Life in Berk has always kind of been tough? I'm pretty much...used to it.
tarotcards: (what are you going on about)

Yeah, you mentioned something about vikings in your post? I assume that everyone is vikings back at your place?

video; HARDLY NOTICED.

[Hiccup nods, then stands up a little straighter.]

Including me. Even if I'm...not all that great of one.

[And back to deflated.]

But it's not just that. We have to fix up our village a lot. It's hard to grow food, and dragons take a good chunk of our livestock. Plus the weather is like this or colder for most of the year...

Sounds hard.

The cold weather normally only stays for a few months here then it gets a lot warmer. It's not as bad in Johto.

You get used to it. [Hiccup just likes to complain.

The mention of warm weather causes his eyes to take on an interested gleam.]
Really? That sounds great. I wonder why it's so different from Berk...

If I remember correctly, some vikings lived in colder places a few centuries ago. I guess that's where Berk is and why it's normally cold for there.

[ Man, this is like really old stuff he read in his books at home as a kid. He hopes he has remembered this stuff correctly. ]

[Are you saying Hiccup is old. =c]

We've lived on Berk for seven generations. But I've never heard of any place any warmer. [He tilts his head.] There was one warm place, but... There was a good reason for that.

Did you guys travel south?

Ah... No.

[Well, he supposes there's no harm in it, now.]

I was taken to a dragon nest. It was sheltered from the cold, and with all of them in there... It was pretty hot.

That would be pretty hot. Johto can be pretty unbearable with the heat during summer, but it probably can't compare to a dragon nest.

Huh... So it really will be quite the climate change when summer rolls around, then?
tarotcards: (I'm not too sure about that.)

video; sorry about the late orz

[personal profile] tarotcards 2011-12-29 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and winters here can be extremely cold, but you shouldn't be too surprised if it suddenly snows during the summer or gets hot during the winter.

[ The... weather here is pretty wacky. ]

video; haha i don't mind

Uh... Okay. Man, just when I thought something was going to be at least a little be normal and regulated...
