Fourth Flight. [video.]

[The feed opens up to the view of a boy. He's a scrawny thing, and is looking pretty lifeless this evening especially. After crumpling up a torn-off piece of paper and tossing it over his shoulder, he goes limp against the desk where he's working, burying his head in his arms.

On the floor, a creature stirs. The blue dinosaur toddles his way on over to the discarded paper, using gleaming claws to carefully pick it apart so as to view it's contents. When Adder sees what it is, his gaze lifts to the boy, then moves back down to the paper before going back again. After a few more seconds, only punctuated by the teen's sigh, the Bagon makes his way over to the other--to his new trainer--and offers up the paper. When he gets Hiccup's attention, he gestures with one stubby arm towards the gear.

Hiccup sighs again, gently taking the paper before patting Adder on the head and walking towards the gear, settling down in front of it.]


I don't know how many knew him, but... Toothless is gone.

[He checks the paper again, smoothing it out even more before showing the drawing. He manages to look even more grim than when this video began.]

This is sort of what he looked like, while he was here. And this is how he looks back home.

...I'm going to miss him.

[Hiccup averts his gaze for a few seconds, instead staring down at his drawings. He would have been content to leave it at that, really, but an insistent noise from one of his other pokemon causes him to look up.]

Oh.

[The boy gets to his feet, moving off-screen, then returns with an egg.]

...I have an egg here, too. I think it's Urd's, since it looks like how she did before she hatched. [He pauses a second.] I think she wants me to find a home for it. So I guess if anyone's interested...

[The viking trails off, giving the gear one last look before reaching over and ending the feed. He's going to take a walk, so it'll be a bit before he replies to anything.]

[ooc: egg is pre-claimed by Rose!]

Well...

Big building full of kids... stick 'em in rooms and tell 'em to sit still while grownups go on about stuff nobody cares about for six hours...

Throw in a half-hour break at one point for some crappy food.

That's school where I'm from in a nutshell.
