Worlds Apart [closed] [Set before moleplot and aliensplot]

[i-saw-myself.livejournal.com]

After training with Zuko (and a shower), Hiccup had just wanted to relax. That meant a trip to Hydroponics, for fake sunshine on his face. At least until he got under the shade of a tree with bright pink leaves, anyway.

It also meant hanging out with his buddy.

There was outright giggling as Toothless nudged his side, rolling him over so that he could squeeze in under the shade, curled around his boy, and then Hiccup lay there against his dragon's side, one foot gleaming in the light, the toes of his other foot wiggling in the grass.

One hand idly reached up and over and scratched the dragon's neck so that his whole body rumbled as he purred.

The teenage Viking looked half-close to drifting off for a nap, but that wouldn't stop him from saying hello to anyone that passed by.

"I take things day by day here. Throbbing beds? Old news. Plantsuits? Given to Ratchet for study." Pepper sat down nearby, smoothing her skirt. "Now a dragon, that's new today."

She looked at the teen. "Meat. The ship is made of meat."

"Look at it. We're inside something alive, right? So it's made of meat," he explained simply. "It is a meat ship."

He patted the dragon's side.

"Dragons make waaay more sense than this ship does."

Pepper couldn't help herself, and giggled. "When you put it that way, then that makes a twisted sort of sense."

She looked at the dragon. "What is your dragon's name?"
