Home again, home again

Who: Hiccup, Fearless, and YOU!
What: Hiccup and Fearless have been lost for two weeks and just found their way back
When: July 28th
Where: Near the Terminal Building


[Not far from the Terminal building, a figure can be seen slowly making its way into the more central part of town. With every few steps they take there's a loud, grating squeaking sound, the groaning of rusted metal. After making it so far they stumble slightly and manage to catch themselves on a nearby light post, deciding it's better to stand there and rest for a moment than to keep going.

Hiccup lets out a heavy sigh, the side of his face pressed against the coolness of the metal of the post. He lifts his head slightly when the two, small fins resting on his shoulders stir a bit, and a head pops up next to his own. It's not Fearless the Gomamon, however.
It's Fearless the Bukamon.]


...Nnn....Hiiic......can we stop now?....

No...for one we....we're lucky we finally found the town again, but two you're not even walking in the first place, Fearless..

[The Digimon lets out a groaning squeak of his own before dropping his head on Hiccup's shoulder, moaning as the viking gathers himself up and continues walking, slowly.]

I'm sooo hungry, Hic.....an' if I didn't fight off those wild Digimon you would'a been dead now anyway.....

[Hiccup just ignores that and keeps on walking, not stopping again until he reaches a bench, not far from the Terminal building. He all but collapses on it, turning to lie down lengthwise on it on his back with on arm over his eyes to shield them from the noonday sun. Fearless takes this opportunity to peel himself off Hiccup's back and drag himself onto his chest, where he flops on his belly with a dramatic, agonized groan.

They're both covered from head to toe with grime and look completely exhausted. Hiccup's tunic is somewhat torn, and his furry vest was stripped from him a long time ago to be tied around his waist. Hiccup's prosthetic leg is rusted to the point where it will barely move with him when he walks. One might be alarmed to see dried blood on the front of his tunic, but it appears to be from a gash on the palm of Hiccup's left hand, haphazardly bandaged up with a torn strip of the bottom of his tunic.

For the moment the pair just lie there on the bench, not really caring if anyone sees them or not.

This ain't a time to ask about painting, ace.

[Impmon gives a cheeky wink for his own crack.

While he and Hiccup have had a rocky relationship, he still didn't see a reason why he couldn't be concerned. So the news, while alarming, is a bit of a relief.

He withdraws, toying with a loose bandage anxiously.]


I thought...I...scared you.

[His head rises up and down, avoiding eye contact. Even when his eyes weren't on the side of his head, he couldn't make eye contact so well.

What Leatherhead felt for his friends was...it felt like holding an egg with one hand. And he had to tread carefully lest he drop it and shatter that fragile friendship.]


You left after we talked in my room. I tried to call.

I thought...you hated me again.

[Pause.]

I would not blame you.
bigsoftie: (you're my only friend record)

[Leatherhead wants to believe that with all his heart, but...he's not good at letting his heart speak for him. He's not good at sorting out what he wants at all.

His fingers dawdling around each other, he takes a sharp inhale of breath.]


...as long as I do not get mad, I believe that.

[He just wants to be blunt.]

But...so long as I did not scare you off,it gives me a little relief.

[As soon as he sees Hiccup's pain, Leatherhead reaches out to catch him before he withdraws. Should he help him? Does he want it? All he manages to get out is a blunt statement.]

No, you are not. You must get home.
bigsoftie: (sorry senpai shredder)

[personal profile] bigsoftie 2013-07-28 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's a bit of a dilemma there. He can't leave Hiccup there, but then again, does he have the strength to carry him all the way? He takes a seat next to Hiccup, Impmon giving Leatherhead a 'what the hell are you doing' look.]

I dunno who's crazier, your partner or mine.

[Eventually Leatherhead breaks his strange little meditation, finally speaking.]

...I can help you home.
bigsoftie: (I trust you)

[Leatherhead rises, nodding that yes, he can definitely help with that. Impmon sighs in exasperation as if to notify that this is a stupid idea.

He catches a glimpse of Hiccup's leg. Often he's only marginally aware of it, knowing full well how people injure themselves in combat. But it brings a little pang of empathy to see that Hiccup must have been in something like he went through.

But now wasn't the time. Leatherhead began to reach out and offer his hand to Hiccup, the bandages still wrapped around them.]


Lean on me.
bigsoftie: (uh personal space)

[The big guy gets himself adjusted so Hiccup could do the least amount of work. Part of him still felt guilty for getting angry at Hiccup for losing his cool...it was hypocritical of him. He couldn't understand and he didn't think he ever would. But for now, he'd make it up to him, as much as he was loathe to get too close.

Don't think Leatherhead missed that, though he couldn't really decipher what it meant. He just looked down at the viking.]


Are you ready?

[Impmon just followed behind, still in a bit of a pouty mood. Impmon was bored and didn't feel like hanging around this sob fest...even though he had a begrudging obligation to the big guy.]
bigsoftie: (Mikey will protect me)

However I can help.

[Leatherhead takes Hiccup along, going at whatever pace was comfortable for the viking. His eyes followed Hiccup's gait, noticing the pain that goes through him.]

...the pain must be unbearable.
bigsoftie: (you're my only friend record)

[personal profile] bigsoftie 2013-07-30 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Leatherhead nods. He knows Hiccup will more than likely not wanna talk about it. But he understands.]

You have a great will...

[Seriously, you live through a lot of shit.]
bigsoftie: (now kiss)

[Their lives are made of long stories, man.]

It is the only thing that has kept me alive.

[Take that as you will.]
