1st kick: video/action

[kickingcatcher]

[Crys sat in the living room of House 11, listening to the rain tap against the windows. She opened her journal, curious but hesitant. After a pause, she speaks.]

So um... I have to ask. Is stuff like what happened with all the world-visiting normal for this place? It seems pretty unbelievable. I didn't just dream the whole thing, did I...

[She stays quiet for a moment or two and then opens her mouth to talk again.] If that's normal, then I hate to see what unusual is.

[Crys goes to close the journal, but opens it back up and smiles a little.] By the way, my name's Crys. Sorry for the late introduction.

[And then she closes her journal, but opens is back up, locking a message to Hiccup.] Um... are you doing okay after the whole thing? I think something like... that must have been kinda hard, and I hope you're not too hurt or anything. If you want to talk, I'd be willing to come over, too.

But we still got outta that just fine.

[kickingcatcher]

Barely.

[tsuntrader]

So what?

[kickingcatcher]

So, it could've been really, really bad for us!

[tsuntrader]

But it wasn't.

[kickingcatcher]

It could have been, though! That's the kind of stuff you have to think about before going into a fight.

[tsuntrader]

Is this a lecture?

[kickingcatcher]

Wha-- no! I'm not trying to lecture you.

[tsuntrader]

But you are. This is such a lecture.

[kickingcatcher]

No it isn't!

[tsuntrader]

Yeah it is. You're treating me like a little kid.

[kickingcatcher]

I'm not! I'm just telling you to be a bit safer.

[tsuntrader]

And scolding me.

[kickingcatcher]

How am I scolding you?

[tsuntrader]

"You have to think about this stuff before going into a fight." "Things could have been really bad for us." That sounds like scolding to me.

[kickingcatcher]

[kgjbzjdhbkh] I didn't mean for it to sound like I was scolding you, I was just trying to tell you to be safer!

[tsuntrader]

[...Yeah, but that's only okay when Blue says it.] You don't need to worry about me.

[kickingcatcher]

[Wow, screw you, Silver.] You're my friend, though. I kinda do, sometimes.

[tsuntrader]

Gold and I are friends, and he doesn't worry about me.

[kickingcatcher]

[... ouch, Silver.

Ouch.] Well, fine. My mistake for wanting you to be safe.

1/2

[tsuntrader]

[...Wait, why are you- well, he did just compare her to Gold, and...]

[tsuntrader]

I- [No, just-] Sorry. [And shut up and don't say anything else.]

[kickingcatcher]

N-no, it's okay. I guess I just worry too much, after all.

[tsuntrader]

I didn't have to be a jerk about it.

[kickingcatcher]

You weren't being a jerk, it's okay. [No, you really kinda were.]
