Into the storm

Who: Hazardous Materials with special guest star Draco Malfoy
Where: the ship, and then Eternal Bliss (oh joy)
When: November 1-5 at sea, 6-? on land
What: sailing log, and then shenanigans on wedding island
Warnings: let me know if there are any
Style: as you please
Status: closed to "who"

[As soon as the sun did not rise on the 1st, like others had suggested it would, Gan Ning wanted off Isla Empieza. He put out the call to his crew - get on the ship, leave no man behind. Or woman, Cynthia.

The storm hit while they were two days out from the island. It would take all hands on deck to keep the Nightfury from capsizing, good thing they have a couple of solid dragons to keep things in check. Just watch out for Gaius and his fiery pendant! By the time the storm blows out in the wee hours on the 4th, the charts put them drifting near to Eternal Bliss. Are the residents still pissed at pirates for what Kodachi did? Who cares, they need to land to make repairs. And maybe score some treasure, if anyone wants to go through the marriage requirement.

[He nods.]

I always thought so, too.

[...Well. When he was younger, anyway. Then the hippogriff mauling happened and he had to watch four of his classmates nearly get torched by bloody huge dragons and he decided he was a bit put off of large, scary animals. Also, isn't that the job that one of Weasley's brothers has? Draco's father would never allow it.]

We don't really use weapons in my world.

[lollll.

Draco pauses for a beat, and then shakes his head.]


Or Wizards don't, in any case. The Muggles have plenty. But we basically just fight with this.

[Twirls his wand again.]

Goblins are rather skilled at weaponry, though. And making armour.

Oh. Well, that's...impractical. Interesting! Potentially dangerous, even.

[Hiccup laughs awkwardly, swinging his arm a little.]

Mmagic is magic. Yyyou're sort of asking for trouble if you make fun of it, right?

[But at least he looks like he's heard of goblins. He grins.]

Hey, that's something. We have trolls running around somewhere! They don't really do much, however. They're known to steal socks, but only the left ones for some reason.

[Just looks at him, eyebrows just slightly lifted.]

More than sort of, I'd say. [Then he backs off, grinning again.] Remind me to show you some of my offensive spells sometime. They're not to be trifled with.

[After the sock thing, he blinks. Because whaaa?]

...Your trolls steal socks? [How odd. And random.] Ours enjoy the taste of raw human flesh.
summing_it_up: (Hiccup: I'm trying? No?)

[Hiccup is totes intrigued.]

Duly noted! Can't wait to see that in action.

[He also pauses after that little tidbit of information, brow quirking as he leans back, grimacing slightly.]

...YyYyeah, I think I like my trolls a whole lot more now!
