His response was delayed, almost as if there was an audible pop somewhere in his mind. The recovery was terrible. "Oh. Oh, yeah. Almost slipped my mind, actually..."
Hiccup trailed off as his hands were taken, his body almost floating as he stepped away from the wall. An awkward smile twisted his face at this, nodding as he tilted his head at the furniture in the living area. "There- there's a couch. Sofa. Over there. Here." And with that, he clumsily led Astrid to sit.
This time, the couch was much softer than the last time he sat on it.
Green eyes looked downward at the floor as he sunk an inch or two on its padded cushions, mouth forming a thin line for what felt like several minutes before turning upward on on side.
"Um. Okay. So." Hands clasped together in front of him as he glanced back up at Astrid. "...About all of this...everything."
