[Fishlegs]: Come on, Meatlug!..-Fishlegs laughs as he, the Twins, and Snotlout race-

Gothi gasps as they fly past her, her Terrible Terrors squawking and flying around in fear. They gather around her as she softly coos at them, scooping one up and petting it just as Snotlout whizzes by, startling them once more into flying away.

She huffs, stomping her foot in annoyance as she glares at Snotlout's retreating form.

[Man]: Hey there, Stoick!..-A man greets as Stoick walks into the workshop-

[Stoick]: Hey, how are you? Beautiful day..-Stoick says with a nod, snickering when he sees Snotlout's father- Spitelout, great race..-He jumps, backing up as he almost runs into a woman- Sorry, Mrs. Ack...-She smiles and nods, walking away as Stoick approaches Gobber- Any sign of them?..

[Gobber]: Ah!..-Gobber waves his arm, his face covered by a welding mask- They've probably flown off the edge of the world by now...-Gobber nods as he finishes his piece, walking over to a light blue Zippleback- Are you sure you want that kid running the village?..-He questions as the Zippleback opens one of its mouths, revealing a missing tooth as Gobber sets the metal one in place- You can still delay your retirement..

[Stoick]: He's ready. You'll see..-Stoick replies as Gobber hammers the tooth in lightly-

Toothless' roar catches their attention, making Stoick widely grin when he sees him land alongside (Y/n) and Aster.

[Stoick]: There they are!..-Stoick laughs, raising a brow a Gobber- The prides of Berk!..

[Gobber]: Who finally decided to show up for work..-Gobber scoffs, raising his arm and pretending to hit him- Yay..

[Hiccup]: Sorry, got held up. Hey, uh, Dad, could I have a word?..-Hiccup calls, jumping as Stoick grips his shoulders with a grin-

[Stoick]: Something you're itching to tell me?..-He says as he wraps his arm around him and walks-

[Hiccup]: Uh, not remove the itch you're thinking of, but, yes..-Hiccup responds as Stoick lets go, grabbing his apron and throwing it at him-

[Stoick]: Oh, good man!..-Stoick laughs, walking towards the number cards- Now, lesson one: a chief's first duty is to his people, so...41!..

[Hiccup]: Well, can we just talk in private for..

[Stoick]: Forty...

[Man]: That's me! That's me!...-A man yells in excitement as the others groan- I'm next!..-He pushes through the crowd as another glares at him-

[Man 2]: hey, I was ahead of you!..

[Hiccup]: If we could just talk..-Hiccup sighs, rubbing his temple and relaxing slightly-

[Man]: Excuse me, I have been here all day..-The man pants lightly as he approaches the window- Okay, okay. I want one of those high seaters with lots of spikes... And a big storage compartment!..-He waves his arms for emphasis as Stoick smiles and nods-

[Stoick]: Absolutely. You got it, sir!..-Stoick turns with a grin and starts walking away- 

[Hiccup]: Dad, this is actually a little more important than building saddles..-Hiccup calls as he pursues his dad-

[Stoick]: Ah! Lesson two. No task is too small when it comes to serving your people..-Stoick waves his finger before glancing back- Oh, excuse us, Grump..-Stoick apologizes, petting his nose as he snores softly-
