Third Viking Assault. [Video]

[punchandkiss]

[Astrid is sitting somewhere in Violet City when she turns her camera on, leaning her back against a wall. Her Axew is seated next to her, holding a pokemon egg between his legs as her Sentret sits on his head, chittering at everyone who walks by.]

[She's apparently added a new member to her team, as there is a rather tiny Shinx sitting in her lap. The little blue pokemon is gnawing on Astrid's thumb, her eyes intent, even as Astrid uses her other hand to rubs her fur between her ears. The teen doesn't even seem to realize she's doing it, her attention on the camera itself. She looks...frustrated.]

Okay, I know this place is pretty big, but how long does it actually take to get to Ecruteak from Violet?

[When you've spent your whole life in one village, distances can be a bit hard to wrap your head around.]

I need to get there. It's kind of an emergancy.

[She hesitates, her eyes narrowing as she studies the gear for a moment.]

Right. Someone told me I can use this to talk to just one person? Instead of...well, everybody. ...Can't figure out how, though. So, if anyone can let me know? I'm trying to reach a kid named Hiccup again.

...Pick a new one? It's his name. His Dad gave it to him.

Doesn't mean he can't give himself a new one. Especially here.

[punchandkiss]

That's stupid. Why would he change his name?

[video]

[duncansdontsing]

Maybe because it's a stupid name? Heck, even moving up to 'Belch' would be an improvement.

[punchandkiss]

How is that possibly better than Hiccup?

[duncansdontsing]

It's still stupid, just a little manlier.

[Congratulations Astrid, you have run the Duncan gauntlet. So, he'll be helpful in return!]

Anyway, you wanna talk to the twerp and nobody else, you just gotta get the number for his gear. If you talked to him before, you should just be able to look it up that way. Then, just call him, instead of makin' a big broadcast like this one.

There's nothing wrong with his name.

[Astrid wasn't sure why she felt a need to defend Hiccup's admittedly silly name, but she did. So there.]

...Right. I can probably find it, thanks. Someone else mentioned...filters...maybe?
