Hey, this is Hiccup. [HE SOUNDS REALLY NERVOUS.]I guess now is a good time to say that if you requested something from the forge, it's all done now, you can come pick it up. We uh... we might not have time for me to take requests right now, but I do have some extra weapons and shields that I made if anyone needs one. Just let me know

Something small and light that you can handle without too much difficulty. Probably a dagger or a short sword, but nothing bigger than that. Even kitchen knives would be fine, since they're usually quite sharp and light and easy to handle.

I don't know what's going to happen, but try to stay with people. Don't get caught on your own.

[pants_yourmove]

I will be right over to pick up mine.

Do you need help or do you have somewhere to go?

[[He knows where he is going after he gets his sword.]]

[worstvikingever]

All right, cool.

I'll be fine at the forge and back at the house. But thanks.

[pants_yourmove]

Sounds good.

Thanks again.

[worstvikingever]

Hey, no problem. We all need to help each other out.

[ooeeooahah]

Hiccup? Did you happen to have any unclaimed long knives in the last batch?

[worstvikingever]

I might, but I'd rather give out stuff to people who don't have anything yet, if you don't mind. If people get what they need and there's still an extra then I'll let you know.

[ooeeooahah]

Yeah, arm the new ones first, I agree. I can get by with what I have in the kitchen, maybe, but they're mainly trash steel, and I don't feel bad about throwing them.

Lord and Lady watch over you, smith.

[worstvikingever]

...you didn't lose the ones I made for you, did you? I mean, I realize that was a while ago, but still.

Uh... thanks? You too...

[goddesschosen]

Do you have any extra swords?

If it comes to fighting, I'd rather not use a bat again.

[worstvikingever]

Yeah, I do. Any preferences? I try to keep a variety around for situations like this.

[goddesschosen]

A longsword would be great, but I'll settle for any blade.

[worstvikingever]

Yup, I have a longsword I can give you. Come on around to the forge and pick it up whenever. It's in the backyard of 339 Brady Lane.

[hispalette]

That's nice of you, but...you do have enough for yourself, right?

[worstvikingever]

Red? Is that you? I haven't heard you around for a while... did you...

[He coughs.]

Yeah, I've got what I need. This is kind of what I do in my spare time anyway, so I've got a bunch extra.

[hispalette]

Yeah. [it's a response to both questions, not least of all the one Hiccup can't seem to finish.]

As long as you're okay. [pause, then a little quietly:] I think, this time...we should all stick together. Like when that big robot came; we were more effective that way.

[worstvikingever]

[Hiccup's quiet for a moment, but then he's focused again.]

That sounds good, but we have no idea what's coming so... I dunno, it sounds like people are going to stick together in the houses first and then take it from there depending on what happens.
