Note: OMG I can't believe I'm even still alive, like, seriously, I can't. Because life is sh*t and I have the power to turn everything I touch to sh*t. Like, school sucks, life sucks, heartbreak sucks, he sucks, people suck. So many things have happened, and so many of them have sucked so hard that I couldn't even write, or think, or anything.

My current emotional state can be described with deppressive piano versions of "Chandelier", "Elastic Heart" and "Young and beautiful". Soon to join the list "Big girls cry" and possibly Christina Grimmie's take on "Wrecking ball". Bless my piano that has kept me alive through insanity and loneliness. Togehter we have spread deppression like wildfire.

BUT, even through all the sh*t, there's just no way I'll ever abandon this. I just got terribly astray on this path. But the story keeps going, it's just a little harder to work on it. But it keeps going.

.

I'm so sorry for the delay worth my execution, there wasn't even a warning for it (well, to be fair, life didn't give me warning sign of "sh*t ahead", but still you didn't deserve this).

Here, have the chapter you should have had like four months ago. It's not even, like, fully edited yet, so pardon any mistakes. I just didn't want to keep you waiting any longer, I'm such a terrible person already.

.

I'm trying to update the next chapter this month. Wait for it on the once usual fridays. I just have so much sh*t going on right now I can't fix a specific date.

Read, enjoy, review, don't hate me! ! ! !

Chapter 33: First steps.

.

.

Toothless' bright green eyes kept glancing over the faces around him, detecting with his draconian senses micro-expressions that nobody else could read. But despite how much his eyes could see, it wasn't enough, he needed to hear.

- Ok, this awkward silence's been going on for too long. I need you guys to say something. Anything.

It took yet another minute before any words were spoken.

- I can't believe your parents left you just like that – Astrid mumbled, in feral denial.

- Technically they think I died. I try not to think about it. Not anymore. I guess in Berk I've finally come to a point in my life where I can put everything behind me – he said while intertwining fingers with Hiccup, who rested his head lovingly on his shoulder.

- But that night when… we had to pick you guys in the forest? – inquired Ruffnut.

- Well, some things do stay in the past. Some others come after you. The Hunters…

- Or Green Death?

Toothless didn't really respond to that.

- With all the super skills stuff… When you hit him, you… I mean, you could have really, really hurt him – added Snotlout, thoughtful.

- Yeah… sometimes the Fury does get the best of me… – Toothless seemed ashamed.

- You were provoked – interfered Aura -. You were just defending Hiccup…

- But what I did is paying back today.

- And you say that now Green Death is part of these… hunters people? – Astrid wanted to confirm, because they've all been taking in so much information she needed to know she wasn't getting lost.

- The Hunters. Yes. It's a Vatican division – Toothless confirmed, and the girl nodded.

- And you think they're coming after you? – spoke Fishlegs - Here, in Berk?

There was an uncomfortable moment of silence; obviously each member of the gang was picturing the worst possible scenario for Toothless and Hiccup to be involved, and none were very excited about the image.

- Well, I don't think they know I'm here, I mean the Night Fury – Toothless promptly added, trying to calm the spirits down -. The Hunters don't even know there's a half dragon. Evelyn does a very good job about that.

- But Green Death knew – said Hiccup.

- After I solve this issue with Green Death nothing like this should ever happen again – guaranteed Toothless, as self-confident as he could look.

- And how do you plan to solve it? – interfered Snotlout - You have no idea where he's gone… or if he is gone, do you?

- He's still out there… – gritted Hiccup, summoning the tensest of ambiances with his words. His friends fixed his eyes on him, stunned, and Toothless merely sighed defeated.

- How you know? – prompted Ruffnut.

- I went to the woods and the dragons are still nervous – said Hiccup.

Another moment of tense silence, this time interrupted by some awkward coughing and fingers hitting the sofa. But things were getting too dark for anybody's good, so Fishlegs decided it would be kind of nice if they postponed such issues for later. Right now, knowing how nervous Toothless was to be sharing all this, and just how serious the situation was, what they needed was some time out, to just relax and let things happen naturally, without drama.

- Listen, guys, I know this is all very important and everything, but… The part about having dragons in Berk… is that really true? – Fishlegs had to ask.

The cue to turn the conversation in a different direction was very well received by all the gang's members. Everybody looked at Fishlegs with half a smile.

- Am I not enough of a proof? – Toothless grinned, relieved.

- Yeah, I don't mean otherwise, but… you know… Dragons.

Hiccup restrained a giggle when seeing his best friend acting with such resemblance to an excited child before christmas. He and Toothless exchanged entertained looks.

- We can show you, if you want to.

- Godsyesplease – said Fishlegs, Aura, and the twins in perfect unison. Astrid burst out laughing because of the obviously rehearsed synchrony.

- You do realize that will only make the secret bigger, don't you? – Toothless reminded.

- Meh, we're already neck-deep on the water. Can't make it worse – said Snotlout.

- You want to see dragons too? – Hiccup was honestly surprised. His cousin, the tough quarterback, willing to take part in a story that seemed taken straight out of a book he'd never even read?

- Sure. That would impress you, right Astrid?

- Oh, yes, Snotlout. Playing with dragons would make you so irresistible before my eyes – replied the blonde girl in friendly sarcasm.

- There you go.

So they were completely serious, then: they really wanted to become a part of the secret. Never mind the reasons, the interest was genuine, and neither Toothless nor Hiccup could say no to that.

- Shall we show them the nest of the Whispering Deaths? – suggested the Haddock boy, side-glancing at his friends, whose eyes were glued to him and the silent conversation he kept with the dragon boy.

- Hell, no! They're not ready for that – replied Toothless at once. Even if it was an empty nest, it was quite a big step to begin with -. We'll start with the Terrible Terrors.

- Sounds dangerous – giggled the twins.

- With your charisma? I bet it is – Toothless snorted, earning a double killer-stare.

- What do we have to do? – Fishlegs literally begged for instructions, anxious and super enthusiastic.

- Just take some fish with you. The Terrible Terrors will do the rest.

- Won't we scare them off? – reasoned Aura.

- Not if you go with us – promised Toothless, solacing -. Take that plus the fish and it shouldn't take longer than an hour before they feel confident enough to show up.

.

Needless to say that twenty minutes later the fridge at Sunstone had been sacked and pillaged in a true viking style, and every bit of fish was now in possession of several excited teenagers who didn't mind at all getting their hands dirty if that meant watching an actual dragon, live. They were all now walking into the woods, their hands full and their hearts beating fast.

- So, how are we luring these dragons? – wondered the twins, grabbing Toothless by the arms and teasing him from both sides - We settin' traps? You're using some dragon superpower to call them? Can you even do that? 'Cause that'd be amaziiing!

- We're using the fish, that'll be enough.

- How can it be enough? It's just fish!

- Trust me, dragons love it.

- He doesn't want to tell us his secret – muttered Tuffnut angrily -. You selfish dragon.

- Just… get the fish – said Toothless, sneaking from the twins' grip. He didn't let the pout on their faces deceive him, the moment to answer those questions would come later anyways; the twins wouldn't have to wait much.

As they walked through the woods, however, the answer came by itself. Toothless' nose got captivated by the strong smell of fish around him, and he began, unconsciously, to look longingly at the food in Hiccup's hand. The Haddock boy, of course, immediately noticed.

- Want some? – he asked. Toothless blinked for a moment, until he became self-conscious of his actions.

- Yes, please – he mumbled.

With an amused smile, Hiccup tossed a bit of fish into Toothless' mouth, who, much to the gang's surprise, swallowed it happily.

- Did you just… take a bite off a raw fish? – Ruffnut dropped her jaw. Toothless didn't know how to answer.

- One of many draconian attitudes you'll have to get used to. Personally, I find it adorable – defended Hiccup instantly.

- Eew. Just eew – agreed the twins, the others sharing their disgust with a lot more discretion.

Toothless had to look somewhere else to dissimulate the fact that he was still chomping on the fish. Although of course Tuffnut did try once to lick the raw fish after watching Toothless do so. (If dragons did it, it had to be kinda cool, right?)

All doubts and disgust however, were dissipated when the Terrible Terrors showed up like bees attracted to honey, absolutely unafraid of the trespassing humans as long as they had fish on their hands.

First it was only a lot of movements in the bushes, like a breeze, then tiny reptilian heads started popping up from amidst the leaves, and a couple minutes later some of those heads were followed by winged bodies. That moment was later described as "the most superfantamazing experience" in the entire world.

Fishlegs went absolutely nuts with all the happiness, and everyone (the twins an awful lot more) did have a blast. Hiccup and Toothless high-fived in utter satisfaction, as their friends ran like crazy from one side to the other playing with the little dragons (some of them playing a little tough and getting bitten on the nose).

.

.

They socialized with the Terrible Terrors for a week until other dragons started feeling curious and Toothless knew it was time to take the next step, before they did.

- You're gonna have to be extra careful this time – he warned -, and do not approach any dragon before Hiccup or I, understood?

- Yeah, right, whatever – disdained the twins.

- You could get killed if you don't do exactly as we say.

That seemed to do the trick. The twins promised to behave, as did everyone else.

The next day, Toothless went first to the woods, in his dragon form, and Hiccup lead everybody else to a previously arranged meeting point a couple hours later. The idea was for Toothless to gather a group of socially apt dragons for the gang to meet, though he wouldn't dare making any promises that he would find any at the first attempt. "Don't get too excited, guys, they can be even more unpredictable than me" he suggested before leaving.

Two exact hours later, however, Hiccup did get the expected sign that it was safe-ish to take the gang to the spot (a clearing not too far from their cove), and he lead the group of excited teenagers there, all the while reminding them not to do any harsh movements, loud noises, or stupid things in general ("Yes, I'm talking to you Tuffnut"). Fishlegs had to walk biting a napkin because he wouldn't be able to conceal his excitement otherwise. Aura bit her lips so tight she almost made herself bleed, and surprisingly, Snotlout did the same thing, although Hiccup was almost certain his cousin's reaction came out of anxiousness. He was the one who felt less at ease with this whole situation, but cleverly hid his true feelings in his determination to impress Astrid. If he managed to control himself before the dragons as perfectly as he was doing before Astrid, Snotlout could even be the first to actually touch a dragon.

When they reached the meeting spot, Hiccup asked the gang to wait behind a rock, while he stepped ahead in the open and called for Toothless.

The Night Fury landed gracefully in the very middle of the clearing, followed by a small group of dragons of various species, who seemed to obey Toothless as if he were some kind of authority. That was the first time Hiccup ever took seriously that comment made so long ago about Night Furies being some kind of royalty amongst dragons.

Most of the dragons turned aggressive when they saw the human standing so close of them, but when Toothless eagerly went to him and let the human touch him affectionately, some of them lost a bit of their fear. Hiccup recognized immediately the species standing before him: a blue Deadly Nadder, a double-headed Hideous Zippleback, one gentle Gronkle and a reluctant Monstruous Nightmare.

- I tried to lure a Changewing, but you know what those are like – explained Toothless as he slowly turned hybrid -. Next time, I think I'll convince a Thunderdrum, but I can't make any promises.

- These are perfect. Absolutely perfect – congratulated Hiccup, hugging the half-dragon boy -. May I…? – he extended his hand towards the closest dragon, the Monstruous Nightmare.

Hiccup stepped ahead, and the Monstruous Nightmare growled and narrowed its eyes into a thin line, but Hiccup didn't back away. Toothless started showing his teeth, ready to communicate without words that if anyone dared to hurt his beloved human, they'd learn where the Fury came from, but Hiccup stopped him at the second.

- Don't help me, Toothless – he muttered, confident -. I can handle them. I want to earn their trust by myself.

Moving slowly and cautious, Hiccup found himself staring the Monstruous Nightmare right in the eye, with an inner strength and confidence worthy of a legendary knight.

- It's alright – he said soothingly -. I'm a friend.

Then he placed his hand on the dragon's muzzle, softly, and the Monstruous Nightmare seemed surprised to find such a kind human. He let Hiccup pet him repeatedly, making all the other dragons incredibly curious about this particular human boy, that for some reason was quite embedded in Night Fury scent. Toothless didn't even try to dissimulate his expression of pure pride.

- Wow – came murmurs behind the stone -. Just wow. Double wow. Triple wow.

- You can come in Fishlegs – called Toothless with a smile -. Just carefully, ok? Slow. That's it.

Fishlegs was approaching the dragons with eyes bright and wide as if he were standing before gods. Such admiration made the dragons, of course, feel comfortable, and they let the new chubby human come close without much of a fuzz.

Behind Fishlegs came Aura, jaw dropped in utter adoration. She held Fishlegs' hand tight in excitement and that gesture almost managed to make the boy forget about dragons for a tiny second. Blushing, they exchanged looks and shared that epic moment in a very couple-y way. Toothless didn't say anything, but mentally took note to tease them about it later. But in that moment, dragons were demanding for their full attention.

- Alright, everyone, you can come too – Toothless said -. Remember, slow movements, quiet. Make a line and let the dragons come to you. Don't move, get it Tuffnut?

- I'll keep him still – guaranteed the twin girl.

A couple minutes later, the whole gang stood in line before a bunch of curious dragons, which showed a bit of reserve towards them yet allowed Hiccup and Toothless to walk freely among them, petting their heads and counting their scales.

Hiccup quickly explained the names of the species (although Fishlegs and Aura didn't really need any specifications, for they could measure the strength and skills of each in points according to their many collectible trading cards), emphasizing just how lucky they all were to be standing there.

- Remember to show respect at all times, they're very smart… and proud.

- And let them do the first move, ok? – added Toothless.

They all held still for as long as they could as the dragons surrounded and sniffed them, taking particular interest in some more than other. The Deadly Nadder seemed to immediately click with Astrid, after the girl addressed what a beautiful and magnificent beast the dragon was. The Deadly Nadder growled something, and Toothless listened attentively, nodding and replying afterwards.

- She likes you. She just asked your name. I told her.

- And what is its name? – Astrid wondered. Toothless translated for her.

- It's a she, and seems to be willing to let you choose one for her.

- Really? – Toothless nodded, dead serious - Stormfly – Astrid said at once, ceremoniously. Who would have thought she'd one day give a dragon the name of the parrot she never had as a child?

- Good name – the dragon-boy reckoned -. She likes it.

The Deadly Nadder then proceeded to strut among her dragon peers, probably bragging about her new name. Toothless rested his hand friendly on Astrid's shoulder, congratulating her. Still, she wasn't the only one getting along quite well with the mythical reptiles.

- Aura, look! This Gronkle likes me! – squealed Fishlegs in delight, seeing how the dragon began to lick his fingers (because he, of course, had brought some fish) - I'll name him Meatlug! Hi Meatlug! Who's a good boy?

- Ahem… you're aware it's a she, right? – interfered Toothless. Aura facepalmed in utter shame; she'd been able to tell the dragon was a girl ages ago.

- What? ? ? – Fishlegs squealed with much less enthusiasm, as Aura burst in laughter right in his face the second she realized he had truly believed the dragon was female.

On the other end of the clearing, Hiccup held back a snorting laughter of his own. He would never let his best friend forget that. Like ever.

Next to him, as it was to be expected the twins were already starting a quarrel.

- Great! – cursed Ruffnut under her breath, waving her hands to mark her words -. The two-headed dragon likes us! Am I gonna have to share everythin' with you for the rest of my life?

- Hey! You should be grateful you have me to share with – pouted Tuffnut -. I want the right head!

- No, I want the right head!

- Shut up barfin' beetle!

- You shut up belchin' worm!

And funny enough, as the twins began fighting each other, so did the two heads of the Hideous Zippleback.

But what was even weirder was the staring contest Snotlout and the Monstruous Nightmare seemed to be holding at the middle of the clearing, while everybody else was focusing on their own dragons.

- Great – sighed Toothless -: a dominance battle.

- A what? – wondered Hiccup as he walked towards him, and fixed his look on the same thing Toothless was watching.

- They both want to be the alpha in this partnership – explained Toothless.

- And who's winning?

Toothless drew a poker face.

- Who do you think?

- Good I didn't bet anything on my cousin this time.

And just when they were about to laugh and joke some more, the Monstruous Nightmare growled something that had Toothless listening in a heartbeat.

- He can't be serious… – mumbled Toothless in disbelief.

Noticing his expression through the corner of his eye, Snotlout had to look at his friend for a second, and when he looked back the dragon had stopped staring.

- What's going on? – Snotlout questioned Toothless - What can't be serious?

Hiccup mimicked the inquiring expression of his cousin, fixing his eyes on Toothless.

- He's actually gonna let you lead – the dragon-boy translated the Monstruous Nightmare's words.

- I won? ? – Snotlout shared on Toothless' disbelief.

- He won? ? – Hiccup joined the club.

Toothless had to get confirmation from the other dragon before translating anything else. The Monstruous Nightmare seemed to be completely serious.

- You'll be on trial for two weeks – the black-haired boy informed Snotlout -. If Hookfang gets proof that you can't handle it, he's pretty much stealing leadership from you.

And despite seeing the dragon nod before Toothless' words, Snotlout had to admit he still didn't get what was going on.

- This dragon actually wants to team up with you – said Hiccup, impressed the most -. You should touch him.

- What? ?

- Touch his head, now – he specified -. You need to bond.

Snotlout side-glanced at the dragon, with the glimpse of a terrified expression, as if he'd been asked to cut the wires of a ticking bomb.

- Don't think that's a good idea- - -

- Guys! ! – Hiccup yelled - Snotlout's gonna touch a dragon! – he announced, totally ignoring the panicked shriek of his cousin. He knew that if Snotlout had witnesses (especially if Astrid was one of them) he wouldn't step back. He couldn't let him back out from what could possibly be the biggest chance of his life so far.

Once the whole gang stood around, Hiccup approached his cousin and asked him to relax.

- Just reach for his forehead, right in the middle of the eyes. Slow – he instructed.

Snotlout did as told, moving his eyes from the dragon's to Hiccup's eyes. He gulped, but kept himself together for good. He couldn't show any kind of fear before his friends, that would be humiliating. He breathed in heavily and tried to imagine he was standing in front of an enemy quarterback before a match, somebody that, despite being way larger and stronger than him, Snotlout would still feel confident enough going up to him and saying "I can, and I will, beat you at this".

Before he realized it, his stretched out hand was already pressed against the dragon's head, and the Monstruous Nightmare closed his eyes and nodded.

A gasp could be heard from his peers, even a low-voiced "Wow" from Ruffnut.

- H-Hookfang, right? – Snotlout whispered, not quite believing what he was doing.

- Yup – Toothless nodded -. I guess you really are Hiccup's cousin.

.

.

Almost as if following Hiccup's unconscious prediction, Snotlout was the only one to actually touch a dragon that day (only after an intense discussion on whether the Gronkle licking Fishleg's fingers did or not count that lasted the whole walk back to Sunstone). Never mind, because everybody else would get plenty of opportunities on the days to come.

- We so have to come back tomorrow – said Ruffnut for the millionth time, excited the most -. Snotlout, you so gotta show me how you did that. It was amazin' – to be honest, she was the one who'd been praising Snotlout the most, a fact that dampened the quarterback's spirits a little because Astrid didn't seem to be half as interested as her best friend, but Snotlout didn't want to be rude to Ruffnut (because he knew perfectly she would get revenge for it if he did), so he did follow her comments and attempts of conversation, giving thanks every now and then.

- We are coming tomorrow – Toothless guaranteed -. After school.

- But I got study session with the mathletes – Aura remembered with sadness -. I've already missed too many.

- Don't worry. We'll also come the day after. And the day after.

- Yeah, but right now looks like we have to go – Astrid interrupted as soon as she distinguished a silhouette watching from the windows now that they were close enough to Sunstone -. I'll drive you guys home – she told Fishlegs and Aura.

- You mean I'm stuck with the twins? – complained Snotlout.

- It's your turn. I picked them up.

- Whoa, guys, stop fighting over us. We can't handle all your love – Tuffnut broke the world record of sarcasm when speaking.

- Don't be so dramatic, I'm driving you – Snotlout gave in -. You Hiccup coming or stayin' a while longer?

- Staying – the Haddock boy replied right away.

- Ok.

Snotlout pulled his keys out of his pocket and the twins followed him to his car. Soon enough he and Astrid were driving down the road, away from Sunstone and its blinding walls of glass. And away from Evelyn and her unwelcoming manners.

- You know I don't approve of you teaching these kids more about dragons – she said as she opened the door for the boys, pursing her lips -. Hello, Jay.

- Hi, Evelyn – Hiccup still couldn't get himself to call her "aunt" just like that.

He already knew the routine by then: Evelyn would be all harsh manners and concealed anger towards Toothless, and all british charm towards him. She and Toothless would argue with subtle hints and implicit messages until the upset moods wore off and then they'd become allies again and talk about how to solve the issue regarding Green Death.

That day, they were still in the subtle arguing stage; and as she closed the door behind them and activated the security system Toothless turned to her with a frown and gritted.

- I still have three weeks.

- Two weeks five days. If – the woman specified -. There's some bouillabaisse in case you're staying for supper, Jay.

- Yes, thanks.

- Well, you know what? – Toothless held Evelyn's look, defiant, and crossed his arms in a self-satisfied gesture - Hiccup's cousin, your other nephew, Snotlout, he touched a dragon today.

Evelyn froze on the spot, her eyebrows the perfect image of skepticism.

- A Monstruous Nightmare is gonna let him be the alpha – Toothless continued.

- You're making this up – Evelyn assumed with a laugh.

- Ehm, no, he's not – interfered Hiccup, aware that he usually softened the woman's mood. Being a direct blood relative had to had its perks every now and then -. It's true. My cousin did touch a Monstruous Nightmare.

The woman was rendered completely speechless, and she looked at both boys intermittently with her eyes full of doubt.

- Why don't you come with us? Maybe next week? – encouraged Toothless, changing his tone of voice to a more friendly one - When you see these dragons trusting my friends maybe you'll be able to trust them too.

- We will see. If, and only if, an army of Hunters don't happen to show up first.

Now it was Toothless' turn to run out of words.

- Why would an army of Hunters show up? What news do you have?

Evelyn sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose, looking tired.

- Green Death? ? – Hiccup gasped.

- No, not yet. We don't know where he's hiding – she said, lowering her voice -. But I got some information about his contact with the Hunters: he's not welcome anymore among them. Apparently, about a month ago, he left and stole something from a Vatican facility. Must have been something really big. There's a price on his head.

- So you think the syringe was actually the Hunters'? – Toothless questioned, stunned.

- Why would Hunters have an injection that turns people into a dragon? – wondered Hiccup, exchanging baffled looks with the other boy.

Evelyn shook her head, unable to provide any satisfying answers.

- That remains the true question. And if the Hunters have really developed a substance capable of that, then we have a big, big problem to worry about.

- Developed? ? – inquired Toothless , intrigued the most. Why would Evelyn use such a word so careless? She surely had mentioned it for a reason.

- One of my main informants found out that the Hunters have been playing with DNA for quite a while now. As if they were trying to create hybrids to stop the real myths.

- They're fighting fire with fire…

The air grew thicker, heavier; Toothless couldn't breathe anymore. Any attempt at inhaling felt as if trying to lift an entire mountain on his own. Everything around him went dark, as his heart slowly began to sink into panic. Had it not been for Hiccup's comforting, reassuring hand, the Night Fury inside of him would probably have given in to the panic of his survival instincts.

- But none of this is confirmed yet, Dean – Evelyn tried to alleviate the situation. It caused her pain to see Toothless so scared; it was her mission to keep him safe, and right now she felt like she was doing a lousy job on that -. Maybe we don't actually have to worry about it.

She also held Toothless' hand, trying to imitate Hiccup's soothing aura. Toothless fixed his bright-green gaze on her, his eyes looking more dragon than human.

- What do you think? After what you saw?

- My honest opinion?

- Yes, please – insisted Toothless.

- If they are really making artificial hybrids then you are the key to everything they want to achieve – Evelyn said, somber -. Now, more than ever, I must keep you safe. And now, more than ever, I do not trust your friends. I will not have West End happening again.

The mention of that event sent a cold shiver down Hiccup's spine. He was well aware of what had happened in London, Toothless had told him how he was once sold out by his supposed friends. It was one of those painful memories that had made Toothless shed silent tears in his arms those cold evenings at the cove.

- It won't – he declared. Nothing of the sort wouldn't happen again, because his friends were not like that. They were honest, they were caring, they were true.

- Because I won't allow it – Evelyn differed.

- Because no one will betray me this time – Toothless assured, knowing what Hiccup's thoughts were like at the moment. He let go of both hands and stood of his own, filled with renewed determination -. If you can't trust them, then you're gonna have to trust me. Us. We still have three weeks, you promised.

- Dean…

- If this really is as bad as it sounds, then you and I can't handle it alone. This is too big for us, we need people on our side.

Evelyn didn't reply anything.

Another note: Bad cliff-hanger ending is bad, I know. Please don't hate me. T^T

I already hate myself enough. See how I spread deppression everywhere I go? ? Please somebody stop me now! Before this fic turns to injustified angst or something.

Ahh. I think the only good thing in my life this time of absence has been "Age of Ultron", all the beautiful Stony feels, and "Jurassic Wolrd", that finally convinced me to be happy this franchise is coming back with those gorgeous practical effects.

Also, my cousin. Gosh, I love that jerk so much.

And "Always Raining Here". Jebus, ALWAYS RAINING HERE. ;A;

You've already spent at least five minutes reading this chapter...

Go on, you can use five extra seconds for a review.

P.S.: I'm thinking of selling my soul to tumblr. What do you guys think? Should I join? I mean, I don't have a life, so sinking in that vortex would probably be a better use of my so-called time... Mmh... Would you guys follow me? We could keep updated on whether or not I'm writing... You could literally harrass me to get me writing... How does that sound like? Would it make any sense? TUMBLR anyone? ? ?
