Giving in and voicetesting sob

[thepowerof]

Lady Mundane, I do not understand. What is the purpose of this realm? For what reason must you test your voice?

... Ah, a thousand pardons. However I see no reason for you to test my voice, either. You already have the Man of Iron as a companion and I have other battles to fight. Back home. Battles for which I need my voice. I cannot spare it for such trivial matters as playing with dinner.

[Even if Thor really doesn't see what playing with rolls has to do with the voice]

Allow me to pass, and we shall speak on this another time.

[Pym is getting a little old for hair ruffling, but this guy rides a dragon. He can ruffle Pym's hair forever.]

You have to ask questions for science! [Bear witness to the spawn of Tony Stark, Janet van Dyne, and Hank Pym.] AndI understand, I'd be really lonely without my family, but they sound so awesome--

[It occurs to him to look at Hiccup's feet, and he promptly flails even more:] You're a cyborg who rides a dragon?

[Of the nine people he's ever met, including you and Thor, you, Hiccup, are by far the coolest.]

Hey, you never know, these muns do weird things to time and space. You could come visit sometime, maybe, then you'd get to see them for a while, anyway.

[ Hiccup follows Pym's line of sight, and then raises an eyebrow, and also his peg-like, spring-loaded "foot". ] Uh... I'm not sure what a cyborg is. It's just my foot. ...Well, sort of. It's kind of a long story.

[ That is actually quite awesome, to Hiccup. He's still not entirely used to people, y'know, liking him, let alone thinking he's cool. ]

[growbug]

That would be so great--I'd show you my world, but it's full of evil robots and no dragons.

But! [Pym suddenly shrinks to go fly around Hiccup's leg, 'cause it ain't like that's weird at all.] Now I can explain a robot--it's like you with your mechanical leg, except it's their whole body! Even their brain! And they don't start off as people, they come as robots. So you're part robot already!

[Likewise, Pym is used to being threatened with smiting. This is a beautiful friendship.]

[mostofhim]

Woah! [ Hiccup jumps a little and almost loses his balance when Pym shrinks like that, but doesn't quite, and holds very very still as he flies around his leg ] Okay, that you're going to have to explain, too. You can't do that with machines.

[ Hiccup takes a moment to try to wrap his head around people who are just machines, and have machine brains. ] Okay, I... sort of think I can understand a person-shaped thing built like that, but... how do you build a brain out of gears and springs and stuff?
