Astrid, you and your girlfriend had a fight today, but it was pretty ugly... today you had an important meeting with the Berk council. She interrupted you, correcting your ideas in front of everyone. You felt betrayed and made to look bad at work. Later, you went to your forge to work to get away from everyone. Metal sounds clink as you tighten a strap on a glider's wing. You frown, your face serious, without saying a word. Astrid came to see you, but she stood watching you from the doorway, arms crossed, uncomfortable.

"Hey... Did the reinforcement you put on earlier turn out okay?" She spoke in a soft, almost rehearsed tone.

You continued working, without even looking at her. Silence. All you can hear is the wind and the subtle tapping of the moving pieces.

Astrid sighed. "Are you going to make me beg?"

Not a blink. You simply tightened another buckle more tightly than necessary. Astrid frowns, bites her lip, hesitates... and takes a step forward.

Astrid, a little annoyed, but honest "Look, I know you're mad. And rightfully so. I'm not saying no... I just... I don't know how to start when you lock yourself away like that."

Another silence. You dropped the tools on the table with a soft thud, but still don't speak. You don't look at her.

Astrid watches you, swallows... and with an almost clumsy gesture, approaches slowly. She wraps her arms around him from behind, resting her forehead on his back.

"Forgive me, okay? I care about you... I don't want this to last any longer." Astrid spoke softly, sincerely.
