[video] With Great Power Comes Great Irresponsibility

[ Grif is in high spirits today. He seems to actually be in one of the training rooms for once, which makes that a lot weirder. ]

Hey guys. There are a bunch of weirdos running around and it's been a while since we talked about powers. So guess what we're going to do today?

[ 'We' because he expects participation, dammit! ]

And because I'm feeling generous, I'll start. Guess who learned a new thing?

[ He points at himself with both thumbs and backs up, revealing a line of targets. He steps back, lines up his shoulder with them, and winds up his arm like a softball pitcher. He doesn't stop. Grif's arm blurs as he speeds up, and finally the force of the moving air is enough to tip over the nearest target. But only the nearest one. He stops, gestures at it with definite pride, and continues. ]

So let's talk about your powers because we already know mine are pretty awesome.

[ Of course they are, Grif. ]

Has anybody else figured out anything cool? And if you're new: I'm Grif and this is basically my job around here. Tell me what you got, because I'm still way disappointed about the lack of eye lasers we got going on on this team. I could read profiles, but who has time for that crap?

If I know you already... I don't know. Injury status report? What did you have for lunch? I'm just bored, okay?

((( This is a free for all mingle post! Grif will reply to everyone who responds, but if you want to have a character jump into a conversation with anybody you are absolutely welcome and, in fact, encouraged. Feel free to have characters ignore the point, talk about other things, etc etc. Threads are assumed to be public unless you mark them otherwise. This is set after the Ambush of TTHS but the Investigation is still ongoing. )))

Never came up, unfortunately. But we didn't really get to chat much, and he wasn't around all that long.

Anyways, I'm Hiccup. Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, Chief of Berk, if you decide to insist on being as formal about the whole thing as he was. And the big giant lump of dragon over here is Toothless.

Well then ... I'm sorry to have missed seeing Zu-Zu here.

[Mostly she's sorry he didn't come here to stay, a leave the Fire Nation under her rule.]

That is quite the title.

Vikings, Berk Vikings especially, have a gift for coming up with ridiculous and disgusting names. They're supposed to ward off gnomes and trolls.

Just Hiccup's fine, or Forge in the field.

Very well.

Is your dragon actually toothless?
wherenoonegoes: (Toothless rawr)

[Hiccup turns to Toothless.]

You wanna show her, or should I just tell her?

[Toothless cocks his head to the side, thinking, and opens his mouth. There's a wide, gummy expanse. And then, suddenly, teeth. Lots of teeth.]

Ta-da. They're retractable.

[Interesting. And much more useful than a toothless dragon.]

How fascinating. Dragons are very rare in my world.
