[Being cooped up inside during the storm for one day isn't much fun, so whether Hiccup approves of it or not, Toothless decides to make his way up onto deck. The air is funny and there's water everywhere, but for the moment, it beats being in the hold, and walking around on the boat helps for not feeling seasick.

The dragon keeps his wings tight against him so he won't get caught up by any of the gusts of wind, and he's not even up there for five minutes but already his scales are slick with water. Shaking off doesn't help much, but at least he doesn't seem to mind being wet.]

[Lea wouldn't be on deck at all if he had any say in the matter, but you can't sail a ship with everyone below decks and he's been doing his best to tie down some things on deck so they don't blow away in the storm.

Someone probably should have told him that he was more in need of tying down than some cargo.

Right now he's clinging to a rail for dear life as the ship rocks and the wind blows. It feels like the next blast of any strength is going to send him right over the edge into the ocean, so when Toothless tries to shake off some rainwater and it goes straight into Lea's eyes, letting go to wipe it out probably isn't the best idea.]

Geez, did you have to--

[Not that there's much time to complain before his grip on the rail slips...]

[b2_dragon]

[The dragon wanders near the redhead since there don't seem to be any others about this area of the ship, finding it strange and somewhat fascinating that Lea can defy gravity like that. Then again, Hiccup probably would be in worse shape than this guy.

He blinks as the man slips from the railing. This ship has an interesting amount of flying humans.

Only not. It's obvious the guy's in trouble, so the dragon makes a leap forward to grab onto whatever he can of Lea before the guy can go overboard or something. At least he's using his gums and doesn't have his switchblade teeth out? Ignore the teeth in the picturejf;af;f]

[by_heart]

[He shouldn't be complaining about getting his bacon saved, but now his leg is covered in dragon spit, he's soaking wet, and he almost fell off the boat.]

Uh...thanks? Can I, um, have my leg back now?

[b2_dragon]

[Oh good, he caught him. Once Toothless is sure the guy's not catching the wind again like a spindly kite, he lets go, sitting back to smile his gummy smile. There, there, stick guy- all safe!]

[by_heart]

[It's hard to be mad about dragon spit when the dragon is that cute. Dammit.]

Yeah, yeah, you did good. You want a treat for it or something?

[b2_dragon]

[Treats wouldn't go amiss, although if Lea doesn't go flying off again, that would probably be better. The dragon seems to be eying him carefully to make sure he doesn't.]

[by_heart]

I'm being careful! See?

[Lea grabs hold of the rail again when the ship rocks.]

Though if you want that treat, I'm gonna have to figure out how to get down to the galley...

[That could prove to be a little more difficult...]

[b2_dragon]

[The dragon watches him, and then looks back towards the steps down. Glancing back at Lea, Toothless gets up and starts towards him.]

[by_heart]

[Lea watches him warily.]

What? What are you up to now?

[b2_dragon]

[Nothing bad! Toothless does stop once he's right in front of the redhead, right before he moves to try snatching the end of his coat. He's going to try tugging you along to safety, that's what.]

[by_heart]

Man, now I have dragon spit on my coat, too...

[Not that he doesn't feel that tug and figure out what's going on, but still. Dragon spit.]

I got it. I walk, you make sure I don't blow away, right?

[b2_dragon]

[It's only mildly adhesive.

The dragon seems to smile almost as Lea looks down at him, giving another tug. Yes. You walk, he'll play anchor.]

[by_heart]

[Lea carefully makes his way to the stairs, thankfully only having to rely on Toothless a few times. Once he's safe and sound, he reaches out to gingerly pat the dragon on the head.]

Uh...good boy. So about that treat?

[What do dragons even eat?]

[b2_dragon]

[The dragon smiles again, butting his head against Lea's palm. He looks eager about getting a treat. Maybe they've got some fish or something!]

[by_heart]

[Lea grins and laughs.]

Ha! You look pretty excited now!

[Now that he knows he can get away with it, he pats Toothless on the head again.]

Okay, let's go see what I've got for you.

[Lea leads the way into the galley and starts poking around. It's not quite as well-stocked as he'd like, but he's gotten it into some semblance of order.]

What do you want? Meat? Bread? Cheese? Fish?

[b2_dragon]

[The dragon follows after, and hopefully no one will slip on the wet trail they likely leave behind them.

He pokes his head into the galley, sniffing around. There's a snort at the offer of cheese- after Donatello had made an entire model out of the stuff, the dragon is pretty sick of the smell alone. He does however perk at the fish.]

[by_heart]

Fish, huh?

[Luckily there's a lot of that. If there's one thing he's learned from his time cooking for the Spades, it's that fish is the easiest thing to keep stocked. He has a bucket set aside for later, but he can spare a few.]

You just want the whole thing?

[He picks out a nice big one and holds it up.]

[b2_dragon]

[Toothless looks pretty eager at that as he eyes the fish excitedly. And he'll happily move to snatch it up in his mouth, whereupon his previously toothless maw will spring teeth, and the fish will vanish down his throat in seconds.]

[by_heart]

Geez, did you even taste that? You really like fish, huh?

[Well, he can spare another one, maybe. It's kind of hard to turn down a happy dragon.]

I'm gonna toss you one. Think you can catch it?

[b2_dragon]

[The dragon licks his chops, watching Lea in anticipation.]

[by_heart]

[Lea picks a slightly smaller fish (since he's going to need to heft it a bit) and gives it a toss.]

Catch!

[b2_dragon]

[It's an easy catch at that, sideways, but quickly adjusted to go slipping down just like the first.

Toothless moves closer to Lea then, wearing his happy dragon smile.

And then he'll make a noise. And his eyes might roll back slightly as some unpleasant sounds roll along from stomach into gullet and then SURPRISE, Lea might get half a gooey fish deposited into his hands.]

[by_heart]

[OH EW. Lea drops that thing immediately.]

What was that for?! Geez, at least warn a guy!!

[In hindsight, he had ample warning, but what does he know about dragons?]

[b2_dragon]

[He has no idea why you're yelling, Lea. Why'd you drop a perfectly good piece of fish on the floor! Rude!

Toothless figures it's only polite to share- and judging by the gummy smile on his face, he seems to have no idea why the guy's making such a fuss.

He'll even lean over to nudge it with his snout. Hey. Hey. You dropped it.]
