[Danny has ventured outside of his room again!
He's also managed to bump his communicator -- again -- and seems blissfully unaware of the video feed of the underside of his chin from where the communicator sits in his lap ( Read more... )

Hiccup had stumbled into Sergei's on the off chance something in there would taste normal, not expecting he'd find his way blocked by a shambled looking man with a story book. As he makes his way around him, he pauses to look down at the pages.
...Which are nicely illustrated. Huh.
He lingers a moment longer.]

He pauses with his hand halfway in the can, shrinking back just slightly from Hiccup. Months on the boat have taught him that things are different here and that not everyone's out to force him to do things he doesn't want to, but he hasn't learned to tell the difference between the two yet.
A piece of ravioli slips out from between his fingers and the can and plops onto the storybook and Danny sucks in a worried breath.
Oh no, Mimmi's book!
He rubs his sleeve over the sauce, trying to clean it. Nooooooooooo. ;A;]

He's sorry. He totally surprised you, didn't he? Oh Hel, let him help? Hiccup scurries away and returns with a napkin. He starts to dab up sauce without getting in the other man's way.
Danny, he's not sure your way of doing things is entirely effective, but.]
I--I'm sorry. This--this is a mess, but fixable! This is totally fixable, right?

It's super effective!
He looks absolutely horrified, like maybe throwing himself over the side of the boat might be the best course of action here. Mimmi will be FURIOUS that he ruined her book! But then he is just a Dog, Bart always said this is why he couldn't have nice things, because he'd ruin them all.
He's actually too concerned to be afraid of Hiccup anymore, and he looks at him with a hopeless "oh god what do I DO?" look.]

He's also not a fan of being too predictable--especially when he's in the possession of certain, stolen materials--so he's ditched his preferred, quiet hang-out-and-think-while-eating-and/or-drinking spot for a new one. Which is why he's in Sergei's. Which is why he's blinking at Danny.
Because Torn might not know what ravioli is, but he knows what canned food is, and he's pretty sure it's not generally meant to be eaten cold.
It also probably shouldn't be eaten around books.
Torn crosses his arms and clears his throat.]

Freezing, Danny looks at Torn with wide eyes, sauce smeared all over his hand and chin.]

Relax kid, I'm not gonna bite you.
[He is, however, going to pick up that can before the tomato sauce goes any further.]
...You got a little something on your face.

Danny blinks, then wipes his face over his sleeves until he gets all the tomato sauce off.
Of course, then it's over his sleeves but well. It's sort of an improvement?]
Reply
Well isn't that funny]
Danny, do you know you have the video on?
Reply
Oh. Danny picks up his communicator and looks slightly confused, then apologetic.]
Sorry.
