Heyyyy so remember me--

[ Yeah, probably not. Viking girl who wanted to go home how long ago? Yeah, she's still alive. And she still doesn't know how to properly use the journal, but she does know if she screams at it long enough words will start appearing. Which is nice. But still weird. ]

I'm... Astrid, and I've kind of been a bit anti-social what with dealing with my dragon and all and trying to figure out new things like... toasters! Why didn't we think of that? They're so-- oh.

[ Getting a little off track, yep. Um. That doesn't happen a lot, really. ]

Anyway, considering all I do all day is sit around outside or bother Hiccup I think it might be a good time to actually... oh... make some friends? Acquaintances? People I can wave to as I pass them?

Maybe? I, uh, got some pretty cool scars I can show off.

[ This is weird. Hiccup's awkward is rubbing off on her. She's just going to stop while she's ahead, okay. She was the most popular person in Berk so this whole thing is just. No. ]

Warmed up to it? See, microwaves are used to warm up food. Get it?

[ex_battleaxe109]

Oh, right. The joke I made. [ Haha. Yeah. ] I'm hilarious.

[secondchances]

I hope that's not sarcasm. It was pretty funny.

[ex_battleaxe109]

Oooh no, definitely not sarcasm. I'm just realizing my career as a comedian.

[secondchances]

It's definitely a good way to make friends. Humor leaves an impression, you know.

I'm Stephanie, by the way.

[ex_battleaxe109]

I kind of like the way I make impressions better. With a little bit of violence. But I've found it's harder to do that... here...

Uh, nice to meet you. I guess.

[secondchances]

Is that a... thing, where you're from?

[ex_battleaxe109]

Well, viking. So. Yeah.

[secondchances]

A viking that deals with a dragon, too? That's pretty badass.

[ex_battleaxe109]

[ Okay, yeah. You're just the type of person she needs to boost her ago, Stephanie. ]

Yeah, I know. It's really nothing though, sort of raised that way and all. I'm not really a special case.

[secondchances]

I think most people would beg to differ.

[ex_battleaxe109]

Well yeah but if my entire island shows up here one day then it'll be less exciting.
