But.. why is he apologizing? Hiccup didn't have anything to do with it, and it would've been obvious if you were to just look at the two. Really, the only thing Hiccup should be sorry for was ruffling Steven's hair like he was a little kid! He was almost an adult! Sure, maybe he was kinda short in comparison but- [i]Still![/i] Before he could linger much more on that thought though, Hiccup said something that made Steven more than a little confused. [color=fdc68a]"As long as we can get you back to your village, you'll be safe here."[/color] Steven glanced to the Night Fury - as if observing the dragon's expression would be helpful - before looking back to Hiccup. Maybe he was still frazzled, but that didn't [i]quite[/i] sound right. Maybe [i]Hiccup[/i] was [i]also[/i] frazzled? He didn't look it, but maybe it revealed itself in Hiccup by him becoming tongue-tied..? Maybe? Either way, Steven was still going to ask for a little clarification, [color=ed145b][b]"Don't you mean [i]until?[/i]"[/b][/color] [/indent] [hr][hr][right][@LouisTheDummy][/right]
