So. It's come to my attention that we are like-- [he squints off-camera for a moment] three days away from Valentine's, and I've only got two questions: Where's the party, and who's in the market for a date? For the record, I am a Capricorn with exceptional taste in music, poetry, cars and alcohol.
[-- a slight pause.]
And, I mean. Come on, look at me.
[The most ridiculous, devil-may-care grin imaginable. Hear ye, hear ye, ladies and gents, Jim Kirk has the floor. But after a moment it fades and he clears his throat, going back to 'business', so to speak.]
Name's Kirk! Friends call me Jim. I'm new, but don't worry about the welcome wagon. Got that sorted out on my own. My kingdom for a good hamburger.
[And with an airy little wave, he disconnects.]
[ooc; 4th walling info for the curious!]

I daresay your sense of derring-do is debased if you derive such desperate insult from my dastardly debate.
[He points a little finger-gun at Hiccup and cocks his finger. Your move, Viking-boy.]
And hey, wow. Some alcohol is light. You want the real stuff, you just gotta dig a bit.
video.
I can't deny your divine determination to drive me down in a ditch with your delectable dialect, but don't dismiss my dashing demeanor with a dauntless disquisition.
[Okay, hold back that laughter, please.]
Then I guess I should ask the expert where to hunt down the "real stuff", huh?
video.
Okay, if we keep on like that I'm going to start using French. And I don't know that much French, it'd be awful. So point to you, Sir Meanfish.
[The laughter dies into a settled little smile.]
Hey, don't look at me. I have been here for like-- fourteen hours at this point.
video.
See? I told you. I'm part of a old, prestigious Viking fish tribe that aim to destroy. [Too dangerous for you to handle, Kirk.]
But alright. That pub I mentioned — we can start there. Like I said, their stuff is pretty decent considering the different setting.
video.
[TERRIBLE FEROCIOUS VIKINGS.]
And hey, sure. Just name the time and place.
video.
[Wouldn't wanna interfere with your personal time, bro.]
video.
I'll probably be free on the fifteenth?
video.
Gotcha. I think I'm off hero duty from water rescue that day so it works out.
video.
'Water rescue'?
[what are you rescuing water from, Hiccup??? TOTAL MISINTERPRETATION GO.]
video.
Life guard. That's my job. The one they gave me anyway. Course the kids are better at it than I am, so I think it was all for humor's sake.
video.
video.
[Not that he still thinks the king thing is legit anymore.]
You at least good at it?
video.
[Nah but you're a good sport for playing along, Hic.]
And I mean, yeah. Of course, I'm good at-- you know, practically everything. But there are limits to this kind of thing!
video.
We could always switch jobs. Engineering might be more my area than paddling around. You could work on a tan at least.
video.
[He brightens considerably. Sure, the guy's from a massively antiquated world and all, but he doesn't seem like he's lacking in smarts.]
What kind of engineering?
[He's thinking, you know. Maybe primitive war machines or aqueducts or something. Jim may be mum on the whole Starfleet thing, but he is happy to learn about the stuff that's mostly passed out of human consciousness in his era, okay.]
video.
Well, I'm actually a blacksmith back home, but uh, swords and axes tend not to be my kind of thing so I gave a shot at actually building contraptions like catapults and projectiles. You know, for the smaller guys who can't really swing around sharp objects twice their size. [Aka him.] When I had to build a tail fin for my dragon, I got more into studying wind patterns and started helping with designing more useful devices for the village, creating proper windmills to collect better water sources, and so on. There's also the automatic feeding stations and aqueduct network for fire prevention. You know, stuff like that.
video.
he had mentioned
a fucking dragon
hold up. full stop. go back. what?]
-- Waitaminute. Did you say dragon?
video.
I absolutely said dragon. Professional dragon rider. Guilty.
video.
[He puts his hand up near the camera, this is obviously a high five transmitted via the mysteries of electronics. Don't fail him now, just do it.]
video.
[It takes him a moment to catch on, but chuckling as he does, he begins to raise a hand — until a giant blur of black comes tackling Hiccup away from the screen. Prepare as a a giant black something, a giant arm blocks the view while Hiccup groans on the floor. Suddenly — oh, is that a giant green eye peering into the camera?]
video.
Well hello to you too. Please tell me you aren't sitting on your friend.
[THAT SEEMS HAZARDOUS, AFTER A FASHION.]
