Incident Reports [Bendytimes to before podpop]

[i-saw-myself.livejournal.com]

Hiccup wasn't exactly sure how to go about all this, but he wanted reports. He wanted things filed. Ideally, he wanted Azula arrested but he had a feeling that wasn't going to happen. His word against hers, after all.

But he wanted a paper trail.

Which was why he and Daja made their way to the Precinct to report what had happened.

"I, uh--I have a complaint. Sort of thing?" he said, when he came in. "To make?"

Comments

"That was certainly a threat." Wanda's lips pressed into a thin line. She had started taking down notes when Hiccup began and she was still writing them. "As well as openly declaring that it was wrong for Zuko to let her live. None of that encounter was benign by any standards. And given her history, you were right to come here."

"What can be done?"

"I believe Azula was also assigned an escort?" Daja asked. "I would also like to know why they were not with her."

[hexyeah]

Wanda set down her pen. "As do I. I will file the report and speak with the Mr. Grayson and Winchester. I'll recommend that they talk to the Captain. And as a former Councilor, I suggest that you discuss this with the Council."

Hiccup nodded.

"So, is that it?"

[fireforger]

"They will need to investigate," Daja told Hiccup gently. She turned to speak with Wanda. "How long until we can expect to hear back from you?"

[hexyeah]

"I will contact you as soon as I've talked to the heads of Security, unless I have their assurance that they will speak with you within a day." She took a deep breath to calm herself. "That said, if you want any guards I can arrange something."

Hiccup looked reluctantly to Daja.

"Do you think...? I mean if I have my meetings in your forge instead..."

He wasn't sure if he wanted someone guarding him all the time. It made his pride take a hit because he couldn't look out for himself.

"I could probably make sure I was always with someone. I train with Zuko in the mornings, and otherwise, I'm with Daja, the Council, or Astrid."

[fireforger]

Daja nodded. "As long as you make sure someone is with you when you journey from one place to another, I think you will be fine, Hiccup." She knew how important pride was - having to hold his meetings at her forge instead his own was already a deep enough blow. "I know that I will always be happy to accompany you wherever you need to go when you leave my forge."

[hexyeah]

Wanda also nodded. "Stay safe, Hiccup. And if you need me- at any time- just call me."

[i-saw-myself.livejournal.com]

"Thank you, ma'am. I should be fine with staying with my friends in the meantime."

He turned to Daja.

"And thank you for looking out for me."

He made an odd little shrugging gesture.

"It's a blow to my pride that I even need help, but I appreciate it. I really do."

[fireforger]

"We all need help sometimes, Hiccup," Daja said, giving Hiccup a slightly sad smile. "If it is easier, think of it as a trade. Just like you will repay my teachings by teaching your own student one day, you may repay my help by looking out for someone else who needs help."

She looked up to the door, nodding towards it. "Would you like me to walk home with you?"

Hiccup nodded, looking faintly embarassed.
