Eleventh Viking Charge [ Video]

[punchandkiss]

[When the camera clicks on, rather than show Astrid, it shows a wide, grassy field. About twenty feet away, sitting in the grass, is Hiccup, next to his Salamance, apparently talking to it and not doing anything else. After maybe thirty seconds of this, the gear turns around to reveal Astrid, looking rather annoyed. Her Sentret, Fuzzball, is perched on her shoulder.]

I need to know how to snap a stupid boy out of a funk.

All he does is sit around staring at his gear or talking to his dragon or talking about that Clair trainer! Or talking to his dragon about that Clair trainer. Or just sitting there thinking about that Clair trainer! That's it!

[No she's not jealous, shut up.]

He's not training enough or doing anything and keeping his attention for more than five minutes is impossible!

[She almost shouts that last bit, and then catches herself and sighs.]

I just need to snap him out of it, that's all.

[Quite frankly, Adder isn't too thrilled about this arrangement, either. Sure, she's happy that Hiccup trusts and confides in her, but after the fifth or sixth "And she trains dragons on top of all that," it starts to get a little tiring! Still, she waits patiently through him worrying about what he should be wearing to the prom, and through his wondering what Clair is going to be wearing before huffing out an exasperated sigh. Really, Hiccup, this was reaching levels of ridiculousness she didn't know existed.

Luckily, Eve makes the Pokegear's screen blink a few minutes after Astrid's video hits the network, and it just manages to catch their trainer's attention. After watching the video, looking around with a confused expression and spotting Astrid, he finally replies.

...In video, because wow Astrid, you were being too rude to have him talk to you in person.]

I'm pre-tty sure you're exaggerating.

[Adder harumphs again. She wasn't.]

Have you tried talking to him about it?

Sometimes people don't realize they're in a funk unless someone else points it out to them.

[... Oho~ Sounds like somebody is jealous. Clearly it's the time for Crow Hogan's Absolutely Useless Relationship Advice Hour™!]

And I bet you'd rather he was paying attention to you, huh?

Perhaps we should think of something else to draw his attention.

[audio] yes let's be jealous girls together

[healium]

[Oh good, someone else with boy problems, let's just go with her first thought in mind.]

Punch him.

[Wait that's not right.]

I mean, it would snap him out of his silly funk. A spar. Or something, maybe a battle? [Jane that's still not right but it's already said so oops.]

...Maybe you could...slap him?

_{[Well, Heather might be a bit of a dummy when it comes to her OWN relationships, but she ain't blind.]}

... Sooo, what about it is pissing you off more?

The fact that he's off in la-la land, or the fact that he's got a crush?

I can give you advice- and good advice, at that... But the real question is: are you going to be up-front if I ask you about why this situation is making you so mad?
