[The forge in the background is slightly smoky with the big hearth-fire going, and Hiccup has a smudge of charcoal on his cheek, and black dust all over his tunic and leather apron. Some project or another is on the worktable behind him, but he's fixated on something that has him frowning in thought.
He turns the video around to catch Toothless in the shot, peering down at a much smaller, black and white dragonling, who is making loud, insistent screeching noises at the night fury, practically crying while the bigger dragon seems at a loss.] Am- Am I crazy, or does anyone else see a family resemblance here? [He turns the video back, still frowning. The sound continues like a background track, interspersed with confused sounds from Toothless.] I guess this one's been harassing fishmongers in the Harbor District for the last few weeks... No one recognizes the little fella, do they?
[It's been a bit of a headscratcher, figuring out where she came from. A mirror, obviously, but- his? Really?]
Uh- well. Regardless! Hi, I'm Hiccup, I own the forge just outside town with Percy, and also the Phoenix Tear, which is a clinic for, uh. Mostly Monsters, but anybody, really! It used to be my Bonded's so I'm trying to keep it running. If you're new and need- anything, honestly, just go there! It's located in the barracks. At the forge, we do a little bit of everything, including enchantments, so if you need anything made, weapons or armor or whatnot, just talk to me or Percy. We do custom work, great for gifting!
[He seems like he's about to sign off, but then something occurs to him, and he leans into the camera again to ask,] Wait, before I- What charities are taking donations this year? For the holidays? Modranicht and stuff. Toys or- or money, whatever. Okay, that's everything!
