011 - Action, Monday afternoon

Apr 04, 2011 00:09

[A: Outside 729 Anderson Lane] [Hiccup comes home from school to find that oh hey there's a package waiting for him. He stares at it for a minute before lifting it and shaking it only to find that it feels completely empty. Out of curiosity, he opens it.

The moment he opens it, part of his left leg disappears, replaced only by a bleeding stump as ( Read more... )

[A metal hand reaches out to take your hand as you stumble]

"Hiccup, correct?" [a deep voice booms from behind a shining white helm.]

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 19:42:43 UTC

[Caught by the giant man, Hiccup regains his balance. He looks up, surprised by the armor.]

Uh, yeah. That's right. Who're you?

lunawolves10th April 4 2011, 22:27:28 UTC

"You mean it is not obvious?"

[he removes his helm]

"It is Garviel. What happened?" [he looks to Hiccup's leg.]

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 22:29:05 UTC

[Hiccup blinks.]

Oh. Right. I just... never saw you in... all that. Before. Sorry. Hi.

[Hiccup takes a breath and shakes his head.] Sorry. No, this is something that happened before I even got here, and I guess the town decided that it'd be nice to let me have only one leg again.

[ quietly watches this stumbling from across the street for a bit before approaching. stops about an armslength away. ]

... wouldn't a wheelchair be easier?

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 19:46:49 UTC

[Hiccup looks up at the new arrival and shrugs.]

Maybe, but I can still walk. Mostly.

desolavi April 4 2011, 20:38:34 UTC

Mostly. [ glances at the prosthetic leg. he's never seen one before, so he's a little curious. ]

Seems like a nice, soft room would be better to practice walking in than the streets, though.

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 20:45:09 UTC

I guess, but you can't go very far in a room.

[Seeing Hiccup fall she rushes over from behind and offers a hand up]

"What happened?"

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 19:50:38 UTC

[Hiccup smiles a little and gets up with some wincing.]

Well, I lost my leg back home and Mayfield decided to be nice enough to remember that. Basically.

hontobakabaka April 4 2011, 19:56:02 UTC

"Hrm... I know there has been some success at regrowing lost limbs back home, but I don't think I have the technology for that here. Maybe I could give the plans for something mechanical to Klaus?"

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 19:58:09 UTC

Actually Klaus helped me with this one. I really don't need anything fancy.

[Oh jeez does he have to kick down a door like he did with Chrome? Well, no, actually, he doesn't. It would be cool, but the garage door already is open, so he can just glance up and see what's wrong.

And really? Really Mayfield? Now, of all times? What is it with this town and amputating Hiccup's limbs? He puts down what he's working on and makes his way over to the bleeding boy, giving the leg a glance before picking him up.]

Let me guess -- this was a regain?

[Aaaand just gonna take Hiccup into the garage. He can't really sew the wound shut, obviously, and just bandaging it won't work -- cauterization is likely the best course of action.]

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 19:59:42 UTC

[OW LEG OW OW OW okay just breathe Hiccup, you've been through this before, and this time Klaus isn't actively cutting off all the other limbs too, so it is going to be okay.]

Haaaaaaaaa apparently!

myblimpisbigger April 4 2011, 20:42:42 UTC

When this is over, I would quite like to know how you lost it the first time.

[He sets Hiccup down on the table and gets to looking for tools. The last time he had to clean and cauterize a wound in Mayfield was eight months ago, when Fran lost her arms, and all he had on-hand was some vodka, a knife, and an open flame. This is likely going to go much better.

And then his eyes fall on the healing engine he built. It's a bit too large for this job, really -- too big to just strap to Hiccup's leg. But if he can just thread the tubing in and hold it steady, it should have the same effect. Luckily, this wound is much smaller and shouldn't take that long to heal.

Besides, then he won't have to build a cauterizing apparatus and waste time.]

A question -- would you prefer to be knocked out for the healing process, or does it not matter to you?

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 20:47:49 UTC

[Hiccup is still breathing. This is a good thing. It's hard not to hyperventilate, though. Also it's hard not to let out tiny little whimpers of pain BUT GOSH DARN IT HE'S GOING TO TRY TO SUPRESS THEM.]

Uuuuh... is it going to hurt more than it already does?

[Oh man that one hurt. He blinks and looks over at Dave.]

Thanks. I worked hard on that one.

[Aaaand working on getting back on his feet now. Might take a minute.]

worstvikingever April 4 2011, 21:07:18 UTC

Well... it's kind of a weird story, but long story short, I'm new to it. Again.

[Yeah that made no sense. But he's standing now, that's a good thing.]

I mean that I had just lost my leg back home before I got brought here, then I had my leg back, and I just got it taken away again. So. Yeah.
