014 - Action and Phone

[worstvikingever]

[Action: general]

[Klaus is droned. That much was obvious as soon as it happened. Hiccup has no idea if it's temporary or permanent, but either way it's depressing.

And then Hiccup ran into Astrid. The way she said hello immediately tipped him off to the fact that she was gone too. Astrid never talked like that.

So there it was. The man he looked up to as a father and the girl... well. They were gone. Talking to empty shells of them made him want to go somewhere quiet and smash his head against a wall. He didn't, of course. That would be stupid.

So instead he spends most of his time at the forge or just away from the house.

Hiccup, for the purposes of this post, can be found at the forge (339 Brady Lane), or in the park, just quietly sitting on a bench and watching the birds.]

[Phone: unfiltered]

Anyone who asked me to make them stuff, I've got most of it done now. Just give me an address and I can drop it off, or you can come by the forge and pick it up.

Anyone else who might want something just let me know.

[Agatha is being good today and not setting the house on fire. Instead she's been out on a walk Because Zeetha is here and training stops for no kidnappee so that means hiding. She notices Hiccup though and walks over.]

Hey.

[worstvikingever]

[Hiccup's startled, but he smiles a little (rather hesitantly).]

Hi.

[Phone]

[float-like-a.livejournal.com]

Is your name Hiccup, by any chance?

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, that's me. Why?

[backseat-dragon.livejournal.com]

You sound a bit down... something up?

[worstvikingever]

[He hesitates for a moment before answering.]

A couple of my friends have been droned.

Forge

[ra-ra-razputin.livejournal.com]

[Raz is returning home from a long day of target practice (i.e. he's destroyed every mailbox on the street) when he finds somebody in the forge.]

Hey! What'cha making?

[worstvikingever]

[Hiccup looks up, pausing in his work. He looks down at what he's making, almost as if to remind himself, and looks back up.]

It's a cane with a lot of weird specifications.

[You are now sharing the bench with a small blue dog. What do?]

[worstvikingever]

[It's a dog.

And it's blue.

That's weird.]

Hi.

Phone

[flipping-fate.livejournal.com]

Ah. So you're the one in charge of the forge?

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, that's me.

[Filtered to Hiccup]

[ooeeooahah]

[ Ilsa is curious about the tone Hiccup used on the phone, and calls back. Yes, she's got an excuse to call him about the knife, but she's going to try being straightforward. ]

Hiccup? Is everything all right?

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, I'm fine.

park action.

[madeofstoic.livejournal.com]

[ Ah, he saw the Baron's drone. It's...more alarming to him, really, to find the ruler of all Europa acting so off.

He was pretty close to his not!son, wasn't he? ]

...Y'alright, kid?

[worstvikingever]

[Oh. It's. That guy. He hasn't talked to Higgs all that often, but yes he does know who he is and his connection to Klaus.]

I'll be fine.

[Liar.]

[lunawolves10th.livejournal.com]

[Garviel stops by the forge, with the shattered remnants of the shield in one hand. He watches over hiccup for a while and says.]

Something is wrong.

[worstvikingever]

[Hiccup takes one look at that shield and moves forward to take it.]

I'll say. You messed that shield up pretty bad. How'd you manage that?

[doudemoe]

[>Hiccup's tone over the phone is worrying.]

Something happen?

[worstvikingever]

It's fine, don't worry about it.

Action, 339 Brady Lane

[inababanchou.livejournal.com]

[ Souji just drove a car onto the front yard (http://inababanchou.livejournal.com/2879.html) of 339 Brady Lane. ]

Hiccup. Are you around?

Re: Action, 339 Brady Lane

[worstvikingever]

[omg totally missed that post sorry ANYWAY Hiccup hears the car and comes out from the backyard.]

...I'm pretty sure that's not where cars go. And it's not my lawn.

[phone]

[commentboxtroll]

[A blacksmith that delivers, huh? There's a first.]

Any chance that sword is one of the things done? [And he adds for the sake of reference:] This is Caesar.

[worstvikingever]

Oh yeah, yours is all ready.

park;

[xuffasch]

_{( this kid spends a lot of time at the park. at the moment he's looking at hiccup rather quizzically. )}

What's the matter with you?

[worstvikingever]

[He shrugs. He doesn't really want to talk about it.]

I'm just taking a break from the forge. And. Missing home, I guess.

[There. All true. He just doesn't feel like adding the reason he's missing home right now.]

[worstvikingever]

[He smiles at her a little.]

Hi Chell. Doing okay so far?

Phone;

[braided_icarus]

Just don't forget, I did offer to help if you need it sometime, Hiccup.

[worstvikingever]

I haven't forgotten. Thanks, Ed.

[Ruri nods to Hiccup and sits down]

"Hi."

[worstvikingever]

[He smiles just a little.]

Hi Ruri.

[Phone]

[putmeinstitches.livejournal.com]

[Loki sounds excited. He's only just nicely figuring this stuff out, but he's picked up the phone and it's a familiar voice!]

Kid! Hey, kid, is that you?

[worstvikingever]

L-loki?

[omg so weird to be talking to him on the phone]

Yeah, it's me, Hiccup. Figured out how to use the phone, huh?

The Forge

[buttery-tech.livejournal.com]

[You know, for being an ex-law enforcer and apparently a firefighter now, you would figure Bridge would know how to find a place with a map right in front of his face. Or at least notice his surroundings. Instead, Hiccup may notice Bridge passing by several times before he finally realizes his destination has been right in front of his nose the whole time. And now Bridge will approach the boy!]

Uh, hey there! I'm supposed to be asking for a guy by the name of... Hiccup, I think?

[worstvikingever]

[Hiccup looks up from his work. He doesn't recognize this person.]

Yeah, that's me. Hi.
