axetrid: (//Aw Shit)

Clocks. Now they were weird. Somehow people were able to tell time with them, or keep track of it. Not even Hiccup seemed to know how to read them or the symbols on display, so at the very least she felt slightly less stupid for being completely and utterly clueless. At the very least though, Hiccup seemed excited enough about them. That meant he'd figure them out eventually, right?

But even then, shouldn't she try to figure them out too? Just because Hiccup was more familiar with technology and how things worked didn't mean she'd be any less capable than he was, right? She just...needed to learn. Study...which meant reading. Reading wasn't the worst thing she'd ever done, but it wasn't the best either.

Suddenly the attention was turned away from the clocks back to what Hiccup soon labeled a remote, which he pointed at...whatever that box was and suddenly, as if a magic spell had been cast, a moving picture immediately overtook the screen with an explosion. Astrid found herself flinching, eyes wide as she cringed in awe at the explosion happening before her.

"It...shows you things exploding?"

She could get used to a function like that.
