Waking up

[dragonnerd.livejournal.com]

[Viking and dragon incoming, but Hiccup doesn't seem all that happy.]

... others can dream they are heroes, or that they are at some other place, they could even fly without wings in their dreams, or anything but but but a princess?! Being a girl!? Haha, the Gods must have thought it would be funny to show me how it is to be a girl-! A princess even, very funny! ...A princess... In a kingdom with dragons...

[And in the middle of his rant, Hiccup's knees go weak and he falls flat on his face... and not getting up. Toothless, the dragon who is following him, stops next to him and lays down to take a nap too. They were practicing all day after all, so Hiccup could distract himself from the 'dream' he recently had.]

To Thor's hammer... But it was so real, how could it be so real, I can still remember everything... [Hiccup mutters into the Astral floor in a muffled voice.] I was- I was going to marry Astrid...! [The realization makes him blush like some kind of viking tomato.]


((ooc: Yyyes, the experiment has ended. No more Princess Hiccup or wild Nigh Furies around the Plane. Thus, freaked out Hiccup!))

[This is slightly sillier than when maman gets a hangover.]

G-God doesn't hate you... e-eh... w-w-what happened to you...?

I don't even want to start on all of it. [Sighs.] I couldn't kill a dragon, and now I'm here, stuck with one, who I think as a friend of mine, and then this strange dream happened where I was a girl, and I wanted to ride dragons, because everyone was doing that-- What a stupid... idea... [Mutters and slowly sits up, his expression is thoughtful.]

Th-that doesn't mean... l-look, God loves everyone no matter what... a-and if you couldn't kill... i-i-isn't that... g-good....? [Matti glances at the dragon, wary of it after all the stories about dragons kidnapping and/or eating princesses.]

In my tribe it's not a good thing! You must... do some things to get recognized. I will never be, because of my stupid-- I don't even know why I can't. Only that... why I don't want to anymore.

[Toothless is sleeping calmly, sometime giving a low growl.]

W-well... i-if I killed a dragon, I still wouldn't be recognized... I-I don't r-really think it matters anyway... b-but blaming it on your faith is dumb... i-it's really the f-fault of the people who d-don't recognize you... r-right...?

[That hair sticking out of her head twists into odd shapes with every growl she hears. Dragons are much too scary.]

You don't seem like a viking, so I can believe that. You are lucky. [But he blinks a little confused.] Faith? There really are Gods out there. [As a matter of fact.] I heard Gobber saying that he met Thor on a stormy night.

[Woah, oops. She totally forgot everything she knows about vikings and Norse myths, so she can't help there.]

W-wouldn't G-- a-ahem, w-wouldn't the Gods stay up in heaven, s-so no mortals would have more contact than others...? [Not something explicitly stated in the Bible as far as she remembers, but it seems logical.

My grandfather said they can get bored, that's why they toy with us too. They travel the land when they feel like it. Aaaand we could see their doings almost every season and all, like the rain, the grass... the oh so great cold. [Rolls his eyes. He doesn't like cold...]
