originaljackass | 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!))

[... Jack looks down at Toothless like a person would look at someone else's yapping poodle.]

Hey, calm your lizard down, would you?

[Oh, he's just asking for it. Fortunately, Hiccup does manage to get Toothless' attention, and he whispers in rush to the dragon:]

Toothless, we need to get out of here. Now.

[With a venomous glare, Toothless starts to back up.]

... so, I guess you two got places to go, then.

[But he isn't moving to stop them. He's not intimidated by Toothless at all.]

O-oh, um, yep! We definitely do. Okay, Toothless? Hear him? Let's just g-go...nice a-and quietly, please...

[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.]

[Jack ducks his head out of the way, glares at the offending spot where the fire blast hit, then sends out his own burst of flames. He intentionally misses, because he doesn't want to hurt the kid. But he isn't going to take a threat like that sitting down.]

[Toothless does a barrel roll anyway, leaving Hiccup temporarily dizzy and disoriented. Man, they were never coming out this way again.]

Toothless! Just get us out of here!

[...]

Seeya.

[After they're gone, he'll give an awkward quadrupedal shrug, then fly towards town for lunch.]
