[Remember how when you were a kid and someone made the mistake of letting you near a video camera? And how you recorded you and your friends LARPing in the back yard, making up silly skits that involved using up-side down laundry baskets as cages, and lots and lots of footage of you tormenting your house pets?

Yeah, no, Hiccup's totally too old for ( Read more... )

[there's a bit of silence on this end -- Jim was going to ask him for help finding Sokka who got away from him but.... well wait hold on.]

....Huh. So I guess it happened to you too.

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 05:56:51 UTC

Wha- Okay? [He follows after Hiccup quickly, looking around taking in the surroundings so he can remember things later. He honestly hadn't even had a chance to take in the fact that he'd gotten older too; he'd been too busy trying to find Sokka but... wow, longer strides interesting to note.]

Action talkingfishbone July 17 2011, 06:02:06 UTC

Here.

[All but one of the foil wrapped hamburgers are passed off to Jim. Hiccup is obviously in a hurry. He wants to find Sokka--he wants Sokka to be okay.

Friends Need To Be Okay.]

Now, uh...Yooou. You said he, like. He went that way?

[Hiccup motions down the street.]

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 06:08:17 UTC

[He looks at the foil package curiously and continues on, looking at where he gestured]

Yeah, that way. I didn't see where he disappeared to around that corner up there.

Action talkingfishbone July 17 2011, 06:21:20 UTC

Oookay.

We'll start there...Or...

[Hiccup pauses and turns a hesitant expression Jim's way.]

Maybe we should...like. Split up. You know. To cover more ground?

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 06:23:00 UTC

No offense, but I don't think you wanna have to find the both of us in an hour.

I'll stick with you.

Action talkingfishbone July 17 2011, 06:33:11 UTC

Yeah, okay.

[Seems to work for him. Now...to the task at hand.

Hiccup unwraps his lone hamburger and heads around the corner where Jim had lost sight of Sokka.]

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 06:36:19 UTC

...

[It only occurs to Jim just now that Hiccup's... trying to lure him in like an animal and not a little kid. Rolling his eyes, he goes around the corner himself, holding a hand to his mouth]

SOKKA! Come on, where'd you go?

Action talkingfishbone July 17 2011, 06:42:37 UTC

What? No--nonono, not like that.

He'll, like--he'll think you're angry at him. C'mon, when's the last time you ran towards an angry adult?

[Look, they are both tiny, scared, hungry things. THE SAME PRINCIPLES TOTALLY APPLY.]

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 06:54:30 UTC

... Good point.

[Okay Hiccup, take the lead because Jim.... legitimately has no idea what to do.]

So-- If you were a terrified nine year old, where would you run?

Action talkingfishbone July 17 2011, 07:03:55 UTC

Probably...under something. If I'm avoiding people, down an alley somewhere?

Sokka!

[It's almost sing-song.]

Sokka, your, uh. Your sister's gonna be worried!

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 07:07:43 UTC

[Jim keeps looking around, trying to see if he can catch sight of the blue parka and doesn't exactly realize he's bumping straight into Hiccup's backside. Different body, not used to driving it yet, he's sorry. He instantly has an apologetic face on.]

Sorry-- Sorry. Sokka? Hey, come on, Hakoda's gonna be worried if we don't find you soon!

Action talkingfishbone July 17 2011, 07:18:12 UTC

[Hiccup staggers forward a few steps, certainly surprised by the the collision.

What surprises him more is the apology.]

It's, uh--

I-It's okay.

[B-Back to the matter at hand.]

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 07:48:11 UTC

Right-- Yeah.

[H-hey, he's a nice guy at least, come on 8( But he keeps looking around, kneeling down to look around benches and leaning to look around corners]

Sokka, please? Please come out?

Action talkingfishbone July 17 2011, 07:53:05 UTC

Sokka--your sister--she sent us with food. It's meeeat.

I'm...pretty suuuure.

[They've cleared another block which...isn't saying much in a zone with 500+ neighborhoods. Still, Hiccup is stubborn and patient enough to lose hope.]

Action believedlegends July 17 2011, 08:03:00 UTC

[Jim's starting to get legitimately worried about the guy now. Sokka's a pretty smart kid and there's no telling where he might've gone now.

...Wait.

Sokka's a smart kid.

Jim glances at Hiccup, then looks at his wearable. If Sokka's the same smart kid he kind of remembers, he'll certainly find some way to turn that thing on. So Jim picks up and picks through the posts and-- AHA. He was right.]

Hiccup-- Hiccup, hey, he got a post out on this thing. I can't tell where he is, do you know it?

[Jim moved close to show him the image from the video post and Sokka's responses as he's wandering around. Hopefully the area is something distinguishable.]
