2nd Flight [video]

[dragonconqueror]

Well I guess I can check 'get turned into a girl' off my list of things to do on the turtle.

[The voice is as deadpanned as it sounds as the feed flicks properly onto video. Instead of the gangly, awkward boy the citizens were introduced to a few weeks back, there is a young girl peering into the communicator. Hiccup shifts awkwardly, crossing her arms over her chest in a bit of embarrassment.]

I don't have to wear a skirt or anything, do I? [She pauses to brush her hair away from her eyes.] Ah, but...could someone braid my hair? It's a bit ridiculous and I've never really...ever done it myself.

[dragonconqueror]

Hmm...I guess. Braids are kind of traditional in my village, but I...haven't really killed my first dragon yet.

[Not to his knowledge anyway. He doesn't know what happened after the Red Death knocked him out after all. He scratches his cheek, face flushing.]

I know my grandfather used to make, um, a herbal tea for the women, but I don't...think I need that right now.

[alphatar]

Good thing your village isn't here to expect yo to kill one then. [Slaying a dragon just to put you hair in a braid. What is you world Hiccup?]

A little tea never hurt anyone...? [What?]

You already got someone on the braid thing though, so you're good there. Anything else you need some help with?

[dragonconqueror]

[His world is violent, mkay?]

It was a tea for, um, a specific pain but I'm not...feeling anything like that so I'm...I'm good.

[If his face could get any redder it'd be a tomato. He buries his face in his hands. Dear Gods.]

Is there...anything I need to know, um, physically wise? I had a bit of trouble with my balance, so...

[alphatar]

[”Specific pain” is a solid indicator and a silent Oh. forms on Korra’s lips.]

Physically, yeah, there is. You’re going to need some underwear to hold up- er, support…yourself.

I don’t know if I have anything that will fit, they come in different sizes. Sometimes I use some bindings for a workout, so maybe that?

[dragonconqueror]

[When he sees she's gotten the idea, he drags his hands down his face and pushes his hair back away from his eyes, cheeks still burning.]

The girls wear bandages back home so, uh, I guess...bidings?...wouldn't be too far off. Rapunzel said she'd pick me up something on her way over. I'm...really not sure what, but I guess anything would be better than, ah, loose and fancy free.

[alphatar]

Sure, I’ve got extra. Just in case this ends up going on for longer than it should.

[Which it won’t because Korra knows Zatanna can handle it. Somehow.]

Rapunzel? [Korra knows the usual welcoming committee enough to go by name recognition, but that one draws up a blank.]

Don’t underestimate the good feeling of loose and fancy free. [Said with a small half-smile and a finger point.]
