That would've been fun to deal with. But yeah, they did...because I was the one who saw things from a different perspective.

[He pauses, looking away for a moment.]

...And, well, I'm not proud of it, but I'm the one who hurt Toothless in the first place.

[anelegantmyth]

...and how exactly did you hurt Toothless?

[summing_it_up]

I...shot him out of the sky.

But that was a long time ago! Like I said, I wanted to make my mark in Viking history. [And he visibly deflates.] And. I'm glad I couldn't kill him when I found him.

[anelegantmyth]

You shot him out of the sky. Suddenly I'm so glad I met Toothless before I met you, kid. So was that couldn't kill him or didn't kill him?

[summing_it_up]

Hey, you and me both!

–Couldn't. I was at the point of psyching myself up, too.

[anelegantmyth]

Then what happened? How exactly did you tame him?

[summing_it_up]

After the first time I found him tied down, I cut the ropes to let him go. He screamed at me. [Shrug.] Which was understandable, I guess, but I heard that dragons usually went for the kill if you left yourself open like that.

When I ran into him again, I was a little more prepared. Had a fish and shield ready for anything – or, just the fish, since the shield...yeah. Feeding him was the first step, but it took a while.

[anelegantmyth]

Huh...you'd make a good trainer, Hiccup. I mean, if you ever came to my world, I'm sure you'd fit right in.

[With the whole idea of pokemon training, as for getting use to her time, dimension and technology well...that was a different story.]

[summing_it_up]

[That stuff they can worry about the technicalities another time. Being considered as a trainer is fine in his book.]

Heh. Thanks.

[anelegantmyth]

So...Leo told me you nearly burned down the ship once. Any truth to that?

[summing_it_up]

What– oh, um. Well.

[Yeah, don't mind him glancing off to the side sheepishly.]

Y-you heard about that, huh? Because it's a funny story!

[anelegantmyth]

Oh? Well I do enjoy funny stories. Please, do tell.

[summing_it_up]

Soo it sorta went like this: Toothless has a habit of, um, warming up spaces so he can relax and sleep. Unfortunately, he doesn't really have better resources for him to go and do that on a ship.

And guess what happened one day!

[anelegantmyth]

Oh...oh dear, who knew nap time would be so dangerous? The dragons we have back home aren't like that. But then, their habits do depend on their type.

[summing_it_up]

I learned that firsthand back at home. The dragons we have share some of the same characteristics. The more basics to work with, the easier it is to discern one type from another.

But I discussed it with the guys, though – we just need a bed for him so he can toast it to his heart's content!

[anelegantmyth]

Huh...any time you want to work with my dragon, you have my blessing, Hiccup. Maybe you could get through to her about her little attitude problem.

[summing_it_up]

Oh, cool. I'd be honored to work with her. And, well, when you put it like that.

[anelegantmyth]

Just be sure to give me a heads up first? Fire breathing is one thing, but I'd rather she not hurl meteors at you.

[summing_it_up]

Waitaminute, did you say meteors??

[anelegantmyth]

Yup! She used draco meteor sometimes. A pretty sight during battle, but not so much when they're aimed right at you.

[summing_it_up]

...Uuh...

[Let him take a moment to process this.]

...I know I already have enough trouble between trying to keep a dragon from burning the ship and doing strenuous exercise routines with Raphael. Yeah. This shouldn't be a problem!

[Note that sarcasm right at the end there.]

[anelegantmyth]

Well as long as you don't startle her. I'm sure the most damage she could do is cause a minor earthquake or something. Which wouldn't do much since we're on a boat.

[summing_it_up]

That's a relief.

[Sort of. He does make note of this, though.]

No startling. No upsetting in general.

[anelegantmyth]

Bingo.
