[Serana Fletcher]

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it." Serana hadn't been having a good week, with getting almost kidnapped and all, as well as many many failed breeding attempts, and two eggs coming out dead. Nothing saddened Serana more than when eggs went bad, the mothers and fathers of said eggs were always upset, and it meant that one of the parents were infected with something, and should not breed with one another or any other mate risk loosing another egg again. Serana had of course woken up in a horrible mood, bearing the outfit she usually did when she woke up such a way and heading to the docks where she kept her pen of baby tide gliders, only two of them for the time being, one pink and the other teal. Unlike many of the other dragons she had bread and raised, these had no mother ... as she had met an unfortunate end with a hunter ship while fishing instead of letting Serana feed her. So now the two hatchlings would have to grow up without her, meaning they were less likely to be put back in the wild. Perhaps if they were let go, they'd stay around Berk anyway, or the edge if they were released there instead. Either way the whole point of her work was to up the dragon's population.,. Can hard,y add if they're just going to be captive by humans their whole lives.  She had made her way to the docks without Amber, as the mother Stormcutter was babysitting the other hatchlings in the pin at the achademy. She sat beside the pin holding the baby's inside, for their own safety. It was like a fishing net that floated, allowing them onto the docks or in the water they needed, and roomy enough for the both of them, deep enough that ride or not they had room to maneuver as well.  She had named them Chi and Ko, against her better judgement. Naming things meant getting attached, she let their heads gently as they came up to her, speaking happily and letting out clicks of joy at the sight of the woman who had been with them since they hatched.

The past few days being back on Berk were...not entirely what Eret had expected. Things had gone from being a fairly welcoming but emotional comeback only for his one of his closest friends to disclose some disturbing news as of late, making Eret's blood boil and determined to stick around just in case his friend needed the support or the help. He had been gone a year with Skullcrusher so the two could afford something of a break and focus their attentions back on helping Berk.

For the time being, Eret was returning to the docks with the large Rumblehorn, his mind full of thoughts on what he knew, having been unable to find himself smiling much like he normally did. But a curious sound from Skullcrusher made the man pause, "What is it Skullcrusher?" He inquired before the large dragon nodding his head towards the edge of one, Eret following the dragon's gaze towards a woman he had never met before, or at least did not recall seeing far as he recollected. Finding himself curious, Eret approached to where she was, spotting the baby tide gliders and giving the smallest smile.

"Are you raising them?" Eret asked as he paused a few feet back, not wanting to startle the young dragons as Skullcrusher gave a soft croon towards the babies ad sniffing softly as he stood beside the former trapper's side.

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it." Serana picked up Chi, the blue one and nuzzled him affectionately before petting Ko, glancing up at the large man speaking and offering him a smile, her mood cured with the larking babies. "That I am. These two and plenty more, I'm a breeder." She stood and beamed st the rumble thorn, "Look at this big guy." She approached and reached out a hand to him, glancing to Eret as she did so. "I'm Serana. Nice too meet you." She offered the man her free hand, offering a small smile while the other was still petting the rumblehorns nose. "Their mother is gone. Normally I watch dragons I breed but these hatchlings needed care and it seems I'm suited for the job I guess."

"Pleasure to meet you Serana, my name is Eret Snow, son of Eret." Eret greeted, shaking her hand with his own but being careful of his grip as he always was with everyone. There were just some Vikings, such as Hiccup, who he didn't wish to accidentally break a bone of crush them with his strength. "This big guy here is Skullcrusher,"" He added with a small grin, looking proudly at the Rumblehorn who snorted softly, pressing his nose against the woman's hand and letting out a loud rumble from the petting.

Once more though, Eret turned his gaze towards the baby tide gliders, saddened to hear the loss of their mother. "I'm sorry to hear that. Sure it hasn't been easy." But it was sights like this that made Eret all the more certain he had made the right decision leaving Drago's fold, knowing there were probably many other baby dragons or young dragons in general who had lost their mothers or both parents, winding up like these tide gliders. "I do believe we have another tide glider in the village from our riders, perhaps she could give you aid with them." Eret suggested.

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it." Serana raised a brow at the man's name, unable to hold back a tease, "Well, Eret Snow, Son of Eret, that is quite a long name." She turned her full gaze to the rumble horn, as if examining him, and then faced Eret again, looking up at him with one hand on her hip, "I've heard about you. I'm not surprised Hiccup is able to help people see the brighter side. I myself was in a similar stance as you once." She narrowed her eyes, smug smirk growing before she turned to the baby tide gliders, "You're almost as handsome as your dragon." She added before she lowered the pin and let the gliders free. They were allowed to be out of the pin so long as she were around. She knew they wouldn't swim off, it was more of a matter of what would swim up. She shuddered slightly at the thought of some sea creature or bigger dragon eating these two. She whipped around when he spoke of a parent glider. "They would have to be female, and formerly wild, knowing how to fish and fly themselves."

The grin never left his face at first, knowing full well some teased him about the name and using the "Son of..." bit. Honestly, he just took in stride since that was one of the things he was taught among the other things. Though for a brief moment his grin became a look of weariness, initially that is, since when anyone mentioned they knew of him it tended to not be for the greatest reasons. Sometimes, he knew even some of Berk did not trust him due to his past transgressions but Hiccup, most of all Stormfly in fact, had shown him a newer way of life.

Relaxing when realizing she meant no harm, and in fact shared a similar situation his smile returned. "It wasn't exactly all Hiccup's doing Serana, you can thank Astrid's Deadly Nadder for the most part. She was rather persistent in me playing fetch with her, and Hiccup just took the reins from there." This time, Eret placed a hand on the Rumblehorn's back, rubbing the overlapped plating on the front of his body as Skullcrusher raised his head with an affectionate growl. "Perhaps we are just the luck ones." He added towards her, before looking as the baby tide gliders went into more open water. But with a gesture of his hand, Eret directed Skullcrusher near them, the large dragon taking flight to soar above, keeping a close eye on the water.

"Hm, well then maybe scratch that first suggestion." Eret said, rubbing his chin for a moment. "Perhaps I know where to find a tide glider. In my travels, both as a trapper and current, I have seen them not far from Berk or at least around the nearby islands. Maybe we can start a search for one." Though he gave a slight smirk, "Perhaps our handsome physique will draw them in. He mused.

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it."  Serana laughed softly at the sight of the larger dragon observing the two smaller ones as they chased one another near the docks. "Tide Gliders are very skiddish, but sweet in nature, so as long as I bring Ko and Chi around then at least one should realise we aren't a threat." She said with a smile growing, "I think they'd be more intimidated by our looks." She winked and whistled, the two tide gliders zipping towards her with their heads breaching the water surface, and both dragons jumped up on the deck, whistling and clicking like dolphins excitedly. They weren't old enough that she could understand what they were saying quite yet, but they were getting there. They both turned to look at Eret and started to crowd his feet, nuzzling him like a friendly cat would to an owner they knew and loved. "At least they appear to like you."

"I'm aware. Incredibly difficult to get close to, even more difficult to ensnare." Eret said with a nod, having made many attempts in the past to get such dragons. Now, he actually cared of getting close to understand the dragon, not to sell them to be forced into an army or being used as weapons of war. Eret watched as the little tide gliders returned, smiling as they nuzzled against his legs, seeming to not mind his presence and leaned down to gently pet their heads. "Well, whatever draws them in, hopefully these two can have a chance. And I suppose you could say I have an odd way with dragons."

Nearby, Skullcrusher continued to scan the waters near the docks before he too came to land, snorting softly as his tail scrapped small scratches into the wood. "If we're going to go though, now might be the time before we lose daylight." He added, glancing once more towards Serana.

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it."  The dark haired woman nodded in agreement, scooping the two babies up in her arms and cradled them like a mother would a new born set of twins, not seeming to care that her outfit was getting wet in the process. She made her way towards the ship behind Erret and his rumblehorn, admiring both males for slightly different reason. "Eret Snow, son of Eret," She started casually, tilting her head at him, "Would you consider letting me breed your dragon? It wouldn't take me more than a day to find a suitable female I'm sure."

Eret motioned with his head for Skullcrusher to follow, the Rumblehorn growling as he stomped after them towards the ship. With the tracker dragon's sense of smell, Eret was confident theycould eventually find a tide glider, a wild one that was, that might be able to help these baby dragons, coming to the ropes holding the boat in place. It was while he was untying them that Eret almost stumbled into the water in surprise, his hands fumbling with the rope before he caught himself and the secure line, causing him to look back at Serana,  clearing his throat. "Well, not exactly how someone warms up to another person they just met." He commented, glancing towards the Rumblehorn who seemed to only look back expectantly.

Obviously, the Rumblehorn was expecting him to answer. "Er, I suppose if that's what Skullcrusher wants. I could say yes all I want, but that doesn't exactly mean he will want it." Eret gathered himself as much as he could, hopping onto the boat as Skullcrusher gave a single flap and landed after his rider. "What do you think boy? Feeling lucky?" Eret inquired, the dragon giving a tilt of his head and giving a decisive and curious rumble.

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it."  Serana seemed to ignore his comment of asking someone she just met for a moment, as she was lost in thought about possible female mates before finally answering, "Well you're gone a lot aren't you? Would I really have another chance to get to know you and ask you while you were here? I'm a woman of opportunity and this is one." She waved her hand with a roll of her eyes, smiling at the two still, "That sounds like a maybe from both of you then. Just let me say that if I can get a wild Timberjack and a Typhoomarang to lay an egg together then a trained dragon like him with another trained female shouldn't prove any hassle." She stepped onto his ship and set the gliders down, who stuck close behind her as she took in a deep breath, hands on her hips as she looked out over the ocean.  She suddenly whistled sharply in a tune, and a roar from on Berk sounded out afterwards of a grumpy dragon, and moments later an ebony black stormcutter was diving down from the island, and landed on the far side of the ship, the baby tide gliders quickly making their way over to her. Amber looked... less than happy, then again she never really was happy in character.

"It depends on where business takes me. Sometimes I'm out voyaging to other markets, outposts, and villages and other times I'm helping with the riders here. So no, not necessarily difficult we could have talked about this another time." Eret responded, grumbling under his breathe when arguing wouldn't get him anywhere with this woman. She certainly was a strange one and it seemed her mind was dead set on helping his dragon pal. So, he simply went about hoisting the sails and setting off to some of the more common grounds to find the tide gliders while Skullcrusher plopped himself on a corner of the ship, relaxing to the movement of the ship.

"So, on another note." Eret said, standing ready to steer the ship if necessary, "You said you have a similar past, what did you mean if you don't mind me asking, Serana?" The man inquired, turning his gaze to look towards her, wondering if she'd be willing to share some of her past.

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it."  Serana smirked at the man's frustration, "I'm also usually busy, I'm sure you'll forgive me for wanting to help dragon's. It's not like I'm asking you to breed." She hummed, petting the tide gliders as they jumped up on a box so that she didn't have to kneel down. She glanced to Eret with a less smug expression as he inquired about her... history.  "A very long story short, I was the daughter of Outcast nobels and a dragon saved my life. My grandmother was a horse breeder so I took what I knew and left." She raised a brow at him, "And I'd appreciate it if no one else knew. I wouldn't want people to distrust me because of my past... Especially not Hiccup."

"Suppose there has to be another son of Eret eventually. Or daughter of course" Eret mused, knowing his looks hadn't gone unnoticed by some, but with his schedule and his duties normally such thoughts were at the back of his mind. But, he didn't mind joking about it to some extent, it was just those like Ruffnut tended to make him uneasy and not so keen to seek a relationship if it became something like that of Ruffnut's over aggressive affections. "But that is still a while to come I assure you." He chuckled.

He tilted his head then, listening as Serana did indeed answer his inquiry about her past. He would have understood if she did not want to disclose anything, knowing he hadn't disclosed everything of his own past, not even to Astrid or Hiccup. "Your secret is safe with me," Eret assured her, pressing his knuckles over his heart to show he would guard such a secret until she felt fit to tell them herself. "I'll be one of the first to tell you Berk not all of Berk would take kindly to such information. Yet, I also think you should give Hiccup and some a little more credit. Even a small bit of the truth helps." He explained to her, knowing from experience.

SERANA B FLETCHER "There's art in this world. You just have to look for it." "When that day comes I hope you keep that family name going. Eret, son of Eret's son of Eret." She teased and held back a laugh as the blue tide glider jumped onto the man's shoulder, letting out a series of happy clicks and squeals. The stormcutter sat herself beside the rumble horn, looking very unamused at the two humans as she laid down, ignoring the pink tide glider that sat herself atop the larger dragon's back. "I plan on telling Hiccup... when he is less weighed down with whatever is wrong with him. You're friends with him, right? I'm no fan of ratting people out but if you know anything it would be wise to tell someone in his intermediate family."
