Ch. 6 - Scales and wings are such a drag for Jack of Fables
[Jack is getting restless now. It's been nearly a month since he was turned into this big hulking beast and frankly? It's getting pretty damn old. Each day he has to roll in his gold a little longer to make himself feel better and he's less and less inclined to leave his gold behind. That damn pirate is going to try and find it, he just knows it. Still, hunger is hunger and he's getting sick of deer, bears, cows, and sheep. The farm animals are the easiest to get, but he's noticed he's been... thinning the herd a bit. He can't live off them forever. As for hunting? It's a pain in the ass.
Well, if he's going to be stuck like this, like hell he's going to just hide. So retreating from his cave, he'll be flying towards town. He'll stop just behind the grocery store and land there. Seeing as he's too big to get in... he'll just bust a hole in the roof and start grabbing stuff that way. Good thing these buildings auto-repair and the food restocks itself, because he won't be leaving much of a store behind by the time he's done.]
((ooc: Feel free to catch him at the store or prowling around the mountains. But not so much his secret treasure horde... not yet!))

action;
I'm magic. Puff the Magic Dragon, that's who I am. I know all about you. During the last experiment, your father was Jack Sparrow.
action;
He gulps.]
Y-yeah, he was, but--why do you know that?
action;
I know more than that, kid. Like the fact you were involved with stealing from a certain lady during a certain festival.
action;
But that was--
Weeks ago. He couldn't still get in trouble for it, could he? Especially since it was during an experiment? He'd only done it to make the man who was not actually his father happy...]
What...what about it?
action;
[DEATH GLARE.]
action;
N-no! Of course not!
action;
Good. Keep it that way. People don't need to know about that, do they?
action;
[Toothless is practically seething under him, but Hiccup's mind is reeling too much to really do anything about it.]
Why--why does that matter? Now?
action;
[Yeah, that should totally convince him.]
action;
The Night Fury roars while a scrambling Hiccup tries to yank away his focus before he can launch a spout of fire at the other dragon.]
action;
Hey, calm your lizard down, would you?
action;
Toothless, we need to get out of here. Now.
[With a venomous glare, Toothless starts to back up.]
action;
[But he isn't moving to stop them. He's not intimidated by Toothless at all.]
action;
[And Toothless straighten up, giving the dragon a haughty look. Pfffft. All talk. He could take you.
Then he straightens out his wings and flaps into the air, but not before jerking his head back around and spitting a blast of fire at the other dragon.]
action;
action;
Toothless! Just get us out of here!
action;
Seeya.
[After they're gone, he'll give an awkward quadrupedal shrug, then fly towards town for lunch.]
