JACK:

Around sunset we agree we still have a long way to go with this training... and we are all tired and hungry.

Toothless perks up when we all approach him at the cliffside.

"Hi Toothless!" Rapunzel squeaks and runs forward, the story I was telling her fading away as I toss up my arms in disbelief, expression confused. "Really?" I ask under my breath.

The dragon crouches with an excited look and hops up once like it's so happy to see her.

She leaps over and pets him as he enjoys it, saying, "You're such a good boy, aren't you?" Then she points to the ground. "Sit... sit," she says like she's training him.

"He's not a labradoodle," I tell her with disappointment but amusement.

But then the dragon tries to imitate her and he manages to sit like... like a dog...

We frown and exchange some weird looks

We frown and exchange some weird looks.

Rapunzel crosses her arms and looks back at me with an I-told-you-so expression. "You were saying?"

I let out a snicker and walk forward, "I was saying, 'you're never wrong, babe'." I hook her with my staff and kiss at her cheek to tickle her.

She giggles and Merida folds her arms, saying, "Nice save," with a tone that makes me wonder if she meant that sarcastically but she is smirking with amusement.

Hiccup walks to Toothless's side. "You know, Punz, if you want—"

She gasps immediately. "Yes! Yes! Yes! I want to ride him!" She jumps up and down and Hiccup and I chuckle.

"Sure thing, m'lady. Hop on up," Hicc says when he mounts the beast, patting the spot behind him.

She squeals. "Yay! I'm so excited!" she hops again before leaping onto the beast's back.

"Wait, wait, how will I get back to Scotland?" Merida asks with confusion.

"Uh," Hiccup starts then looks at me, assuming that I would take her back the way I took Punz here, but doesn't know how to break the news.

She follows his gaze then drops her mouth open. "No, no, no, no, no! Absolutely not."

I crack a snicker. "What? Are you scared, princess?"

"I am not scared! I rode on the back of a dragon in battle!"

"Then what? You hate the feeling of freedom?"

"Hate being such close quarters with you for an hour more like," she says, with immense attitude, in my face.

I roll my eyes but she turns to them, saying, "There is absolutely no way at all that I will—" She stops when she sees the puppy dog look Punz is giving her. She drops her shoulders and groans, her expression done. "...Fine..."
