17 - fury of the night

[forbiddenfriend]

[There's a strange noise coming from somewhere-- outside, certainly, perhaps in the forest? It sounds kind of like a repeated hiss... sloppily mixed together with a slight growl and perhaps a cough. It happens once, twice, three times, then stops...

Toothless butts his head against the doors of the castle, letting himself in. He looks around and--

Ha-tss!

He sneezes, and a bit of flame lights itself on the floor. He perks his ears up at the fire, then casually snuffs it out with a foot. Nobody saw that, nope...

Except his eyes widen, and he rears back his head, and,

HA-TSHCK!

The nightfury sniffs a little, and then he freezes.

So, um. The couch in the lobby might just be a little on fire, guys.]

[Connor had been engrossed in the book he'd been reading so he hadn't notice the... dragon... coming into the castle. He does, however, notice that the couch he's sitting on is now on fire.]

FUCK!!

[He leaps up and scrambles out of the way]

[forbiddenfriend]

[Toothless watches him jump away, then looks at the fire on the couch, tilting his head a bit.

He was pretty good at causing fires. Not so much at putting them out.]

[shepherdsveritas]

[Not noticing the dragon just yet because, well, FIRE. He grabs his coat and uses it to dampen out the flames. ... waste of a fucking good coat but he'll be damned if he's gonna wish for something if he can just take care of it without]

[forbiddenfriend]

[son wtf are you doing? ... it seems to be working, though, and eventually the fire goes out.

Toothless sniffles a bit, then gives a little sneeze. A tiny bit of fire dances next to the man's foot.]

[shepherdsveritas]

[He jumps. WTF IS GOING ON HERE!? After stamping out that flame he looks around... and sees a motherfucking dragon. Excuse him while he stares for a moment]

[3_butterflies]

[Yes, because clearly she hasn't been frightened enough lately. She spots the fire, and shrieks.]

Oh no!

[forbiddenfriend]

[Toothless gives an apologetic croon, backing away from the couch a bit.

He didn't mean to, honest! >:]

[forbiddenfriend]

[Toothless looks back at Carson for a moment, then turns his head, sneezing, flame streaking the air for a moment before disappearing into nothing. A bit of smoke trails out his nostrils as he snorts.]

[shepherdsveritas]

[Connor blinks, taking a slow breath and silently reminding himself that it's still Lent and he wasn't to judge people... do dragons count? Might as well. He coughs softly]

Y'arrite?

[frogs]

[oh it's that dragon she ran into! ... hope he doesn't remember her growling at him...

also that sure is a couch on fire.]

Oh no!

[3_butterflies]

What do we do? What do we do?!

[lifeandpride]

[Stepping out of the kitchen and seeing a couch on fire was not in his plans for the day, but before he could do anything another man seemed to have the situation in hand.

Ukitake waits until he's sure the fire is truly out before he approaches the dragon, trying to assess the situation. He recognizes this dragon from before, but he didn't recall it being hostile.]

What happened, friend? If you're angry at the castle, I don't blame you, but lighting it on fire is not the way to go, I think.

[Harry stops and stares at the dragon for a moment. Alleria told him about there being dragons here but... fuck that's a living bloody dragon! It takes him a moment before he grabs the flower vase nearby and pours it's content all over the couch in hope it'll make the fire go out]

[beforepride]

[it seems like they just keep running into each other under weird conditions--but there's a little Zelman in the lobby, staring at the giant monster thing and the couch that he's set on fire.

whoa. 8|]

[forbiddenfriend]

[A slightly disgruntled sound comes from the nightfury as he lifts a leg, pawing at his nose. At least it wasn't pollen central in here like it was outside.]

[forbiddenfriend]

[He looks back at the couch. The fire doesn't seem to be spreading, at least, although the nightfury isn't entirely sure why.

...and then back to Fluttershy.

Um.

He doesn't know.

>:?]

[forbiddenfriend]

[Yeah, this dragon doesn't forget. Silly growling humans aren't really his biggest problem right now though, and he just kind of looks at the couch in confusion, not really sure what to do about it.]

[3_butterflies]

Water... we need water... o-oh! I'll be right back!

[She suddenly heads for the doors, needing to go outside.]

[forbiddenfriend]

[Toothless looks up at Ukitake and snorts lightly with a toss of his head.

Ha-thsk!

He blinks and sniffs, then gives an accusatory look at the little flame he sneezed out onto the carpet.

Stupid spring. Stupid pollen.]

[forbiddenfriend]

[YEAH IT IS. And good job making more pollen go everywhere, Harry. Toothless just gives the man a sort of baffled look before a bunch of that pollen attacks him, and...

well, now he's sneezing fire all over the place. Giving an irritated sound, the dragon quickly bounds into the kitchen. At least that area is relatively less flammable.]

[forbiddenfriend]

[YEAH THAT COUCH IS.......... not his problem B|. Toothless just sort of starts to walk off before he notices A WITNESS.

oh. hello there.]

[forbiddenfriend]

[Toothless sniffs, watching Fluttershy dart out in confusion. More pollen comes in from outside when the doors open briefly though, and Toothless sneezes again.

... oh, well. Now the other side of the couch is on fire. That's good.]

[3_butterflies]

[Moments later, she returns, flying... and tugging in a raining cloud. Cause Pegasi can do that. She tries to shove the cloud over the fires.]

I hope this is okay...

[forbiddenfriend]

[The fires combine into one big fiery couch.

Toothless looks at it patronizingly.

They're going to need more than one rain cloud.]

[3_butterflies]

[Whiiiiine ;; ]

I-I'll go get some more clouds!

[Out she flies to do just that.]
