Fifteen: In Which Klaus Finds Himself in the Present Once Again

[myblimpisbigger]

[This isn't Westport. That means this is Mayfield, and for the first time, Klaus is honestly relieved to realize that.

His first order of business is checking on a certain someone left behind -- that is, Hiccup, who he last saw with his head ripped open, very much dead. Hiccup, if you are in the house, expect Klaus to find you... and inspect your head to make sure it is no longer all ripped open.]

[Later, Klaus is going to send out a phone-call -- much as ones in the past, it is filtered to those he particularly cares about - Ples, Empress, Chrome, Dist and the like.]

I trust all of you are currently safe and uninjured, yes?

[And another, this time to Garviel.]

I must say, I was quite impressed by your taking charge so quickly and effectively in Westport. Perhaps you and I should collaborate at some point-- and I have some weaponry you would perhaps be interested to see.

[Later still, Klaus will be in his garage with the door open, working on the gun that Dist made him so long ago. He hasn't had a chance to improve it since he got the second phase of his Spark back, but after the Westport incident, it suddenly occurred to him that being properly armed in case of another disaster would be a good idea.

Do you approach this strange man whose activity is making loud, sciency noises, y/n?]

[Walking on by, Quinn can't help notice there's science a-happenin'. He stops for a peek, wondering what it is you're up to in there.]

[Oh, hey neighbor. Edward's gonna come outside and see just what's making all this loud, science-y noise. Don't mind him.]

I'm fine right now, Klaus, thank you.

...I'm sorry you had to witness him.

[he blinks, then tries to conceal his embarrassment. Garviel has a great deal of modesty.]

"I would be pleased by that, Klaus. And I thank you for your kind words. I am a soldier, and I wanted to safeguard the lives of those within this town. We all need each other to resist the malignant nature of this place."

[he pauses... then decides to jump in]

"I had actually thought to ask you if you would like to work with me on forging some blades. I know a man who owns a forge, but has no skill in crafting weapons. You clearly do. I thought we might provide for the common defense by making a few standard-pattern close combat blades."

ACTION

[He's in the living room, staring out the window at the street.

No he's totally not watching for angels.

Not at all.

[Oh, hey, there's a teenage girl with limited social skills just walking straight into the garage. The loud, scary noises do nothing to bother her because this is so cool.]

Oh, man, this is way, way awesome! What're you making?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

[A small pale girl with amber eyes that sem to almost sparkle with electrical flashes watches the gun work]

"Are you Hiccup's father, and... Do you need help with that?"

[Aisling was passing by when she remembers that this is Hiccup's house...only now there's someone else in the garage. Oh right, it's that guy she met in the park a while back...

So she'll just peek into the garage and watch him until he notices her. Because that is how she does things.]

[ Hey, it's his boss. And said boss is being rather sparky. Should he say something yes he should. ]

...You workin' on somethin' there, Sir?

[buildstherobots.livejournal.com]

...I'm fine. I didn't even leave the house since those things started popping up everywhere.

[There's a moment of quiet on the other line]

...I'm alright. For the most part. [But there's a weariness to her tone that gives away how emotionally exhausted she is]
