The lawn behind the dorms, after the picnic

[abitlegless.livejournal.com]

"Okay, buddy, check out what I got for you." Hiccup emptied his pockets, and then the tablecloth full of food he'd...acquired from the picnic. "Don't know what any of it is, but it's all good stuff."

They were out of the woods. The people he'd talked to hadn't seemed to see any problems with the dragon, and he had been allowed to bring him, so he'd decided it was safe for Toothless to show his face.

Toothless sniffed at the food, making intermittent purring noises, and started scoffing it down. Hiccup collapsed onto the grass, legs--one real and one wood and metal--stretched out in front of him, glad to be sitting and glad to be out here in the warm sun. "You're going to meet my roommate," he said after a bit, and Toothless' head came up, ears cocked to the side. "You be nice to her, no, you know, bouncing and knocking her over."

An inquiring rumble.

"Yes, I said her. No, I don't know how I'm going to explain it to Astrid in a way that lets me keep the rest of my limbs."

The sound Toothless made was definitely the dragon equivalent of a laugh, and Hiccup rolled his eyes.

[OOC: Expecting the roomie, but totally open if you want to meet, stare at, or whatever the dragon. No slaying!]

"You should come to Berk. We've got hundreds of them. None like Toothless though." Toothless tossed his head in agreement, then turned to nudge Hiccup affectionately. "He's a Night Fury, and I think he might be the only one."

Cara approved of names like Night Fury, even if they brought to mind an image that was less kitty-like. "Berk's where you're from?"

"Isle of Berk, a million miles north of anywhere, where it hails when it's not snowing and it snows most of the time. But it's got dragons." At least, it did now. "Where are you from? Because I'm guessing it's not here."

"There's snow?" Look, Cara liked snow. "The Midlands. They're...not here."

"Lots of snow, endless amounts of snow, if snow was valuable, Berk would be the richest village in the world. It's not, so Berk is just cold and wet most of the time." He looked at her curiously. "You don't have snow in the Midlands?" Yeah, he sounded just a bit envious of that.

"We do. But just in the coldest part of winter."
