hey bud.

I love animals more than humans, sorry.

[rockin-robber]

“Ha - c’mere - no, wait not that way, you’re tangling it more,” Robin laughed, reaching out to try and turn him in the right direction to unwind the lights. “How did this happen?”

[blessedby-puberty]

“Oh, hey bud.” Hiccup slowly shook his head, and shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know. I was trying to get them on this tree, and then next thing I know I’m tangled. I can’t even walk.” Everytime he tried to move his arms, the lights would constrict around him. 

[blessedby-puberty]

“I have no idea what I’m doing…” Hiccup sighed, his entire body tangled in bright lights. 

[arewegoodguys]

“I’ll tell you– you’re doin’ a pretty good impression of a Christmas tree. Here, let me help you.” He picked up the end of one of the lights.

[blessedby-puberty]

“Uh..Well thanks.” Hiccup mumbled, trying to untangled himself. “I just thought it would add some cheer..If I hung some lights on the trees outside.”

“So you weren’t trying to get into holiday themed kinky shit?” Jamie eyed the sight in front of her, pausing on her way to get a drink. “Hate to break it to you buddy, but you’re not making it easy to believe.” 

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup turned bright red when the stranger began to talk to him. He lifted his arms up, trying to get himself out of the tangle of lights, but only ended up making it worse. “Uh. Uh no. No. I’m..Just..” He mumbled, looking down at his wrapped up body. “I was trying to..Decorate..” He admitted, looking over to a tree that was outside the cabin. 

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup: Hey, how you doing? Look over there, right there– there’s a tiger. That tiger weighs 800 pounds and it could kill a man in ten seconds.

Hiccup: I’m gonna touch it.

[blessedby-puberty]

“I have no idea what I’m doing...” Hiccup sighed, his entire body tangled in bright lights.

“Oh…is this it? Sorry, it was on the table and well you’re really good.” 

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup looked at the book in her hands, and sighed in relief. But panic welled inside him as he heard her speak about his talent. “Uhm. Yes. That’s..Mine.” He said slowly. “Thank..You.” 

[targetlaughter-blog]

Never having been one for sensing someone else’s discomfort, Roger continued blabbing away, oblivious to Hiccup’s growing anxiety. In fact, his line of sight stayed focused on the book that Hiccup now clutched tightly against himself. Anyone else would have been able to see that it was almost protective. But he wanted to see more of it.

“Taught yourself? Wow. That’s impressive. How long did it take? Have you ever done anything with it? Like make a comic, or a cartoon?”

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup swallowed hard, wanting nothing more than to disappear. He didn’t understand how the man in front of him couldn’t sense how uncomfortable he was. . “I..Well..No. I just...Sketch..Stuff...I guess.” He mumbled, looking down at the ground. Panic was coursing through his veins. What all had the man before him seen? 

[stealingeveryonesright-shoe]

“Not so fast,” he said, holding the sketchbook out of Hiccup’s reach. “What do I get in return?”

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup jerked back, almost as if he had been slapped in the face. “Wha..What do you mean?? What..Do you want?” He questioned, staring at the book. He didn’t have anything to offer, the only thing in his possession was the book, his prosthetic leg, and maybe a few cents that were laying around in his room. 

[snowsomeday-blog]

Snow leaped out of her bed and scurried behind him, quickly toeing into her moccasins as she went. “I promise I won’t touch anything. Especially not the animals.” She giggled next to him, ready to leave. “They wouldn’t have your notebook though would they?” 

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup nodded his head, and opened the door. “I mean, the animals wouldn’t..But I can almost promise that it’s in there. It’s the last place I remember having it.” He explained, holding the door open for her. “Just..Be careful..It’s late, and I’m sure the animals are all sleeping...Well..Maybe not the nocturnal ones, but the others will be.”

[im-notyourgirl]

Angel nodded her head at the description. “Sounds almost like every other book around. Shouldn’t be too hard to find.”

“Where do you think you left it? You try looking in your room?”

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup clutched his fist to her response, and spun around. He stopped dead in his tracks, his nostrils flaring from frustration. “If you’re going to be so sarcastic, then don’t bother.” He said through clenched teeth. Without another word he turned back around, and started walking. This was a serious matter, and her sass and attitude wasn’t needed, in his opinion. 

[targetlaughter-blog]

“Hey, no problem! Man, I wish I knew how to draw like that.” Roger said, letting the book go. Hiccup seemed quite eager to get it back into his possession as quickly as possible – probably because he wanted to keep drawing, or something. That would make sense. Someone of Hiccup’s skill-level probably never stopped! “Where’d you learn?”

[blessedby-puberty]

As soon as he had his hands back on his possession, he felt slightly better. But new panic was building in his chest. How much had the man before him seen? Had he seen the different sketches of prosthetic limbs that were tucked away in the pages? Or even the sketches he had done from his memories. Hiccup gulped down air, and shruggued. “Thanks..Th..Thanks. I uh...I just..Taught myself. I guess.”

[snowsomeday-blog]

She sat up straight at his words. “It could be! Could I… Could I come with you?” The thought of the bunnies from the petting zoo did have a little to do with why she wanted to go. “Two people looking will find it faster.” 

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup wasn’t sure if he wanted to bring her into the animal car. He wasn’t sure how they would act to a person they hadn’t seen very often. But still, she was right. Two people looking would find it faster. “Su..Sure. You can come.” He mumbled, starting to put his jacket on. He placed his hand on the door, and motioned for Snow. “Come on.” 

[targetlaughter-blog]

“Oh, is this it? It was just lying in the dining car, completely unattended! And open! You’re really good at this, by the way.”

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup looked at the book, and felt his cheeks turn a deep red. While it was missing, he was hoping that no one would actually look in it. “Y...yeah..That’s it.” He chewed on the inside of his cheek and reached out to grab the book. “Th..anks.” He mumbled. 

[stealingeveryonesright-shoe]

“You mean this?” Leroy held up a leather bound sketchbook, waving it slightly. “This what you’re looking for?”

[blessedby-puberty]

Hiccup narrowed his eyes, trying to focus on the object, before a rush of relief ran through him. “Oh, oh yes. That’s it.” He began to close the gap between him and the man, reaching his hand out. 

[im-notyourgirl]

“I guess we can start with what it looks like?” She asked as she quickly followed after him.

“Its leather bound, with a gold symbol on the spine.” He said, keeping up the pace. He didn’t know how he felt about her following him, offering him help, after she was so snobbish to him. She said she needed to try, but why try? If that was who she was, then why change. He knew he needed friends, and that he didn’t need to stay cooped up with animals all day, but the thought of actually going out made him uncomfortable. He found at one point in time he had made progress, but the hermit life hit him again as the carnival moved around more.
