Snotlout leaned against the chained ceiling of the training arena as he watched the sparring match going on below him. It was normal for the twins to fight and honestly, they had toned it down a little today but it was still fun to watch Ruffnut beat her brother's ass. Next to him was a rather energetic Annalout who had insisted on spending the day with her big brother. The younger of the siblings was nonstop talking about what advantages each twin had and how she couldn't wait to see who won. Snotlout shook his head in amusement when just as he suspected Ruff came out victorious and Tuff was rolling on the floor making it seem like he was in more pain than he actually was.

"Hey losers, how about we show them what we Jorgonsons are really made of with a little two v two?" Snotlout didn't even have time to turn around before an arm was slung over his shoulders, he didn't even have to look to know that it was Leiflout, the oldest of the Jorgonson siblings.

"No, you two always team up against us and it's not fair," Anna whined, though it was in vain as Siggielout threw her over his shoulder without a word and carried her down. After grabbing their desired weapons and stretching the Jorgenson siblings began their skirmish.

In the beginning Snotlout and Annalout were doing pretty good at dodging attacks and even got a few of their own but it didn't take long before Anna decided to team up with the other two leaving Snotlout stumbling as he avoided three different attacks. Snotlout tried to keep focused but that was a lot harder to do with the twins constantly giving their own input, most of which was jokes about how bad their friend was doing. Turning around to tell the two to shut up, Snotlout let down his guard long enough for Leiflout to scratch his cheek and kick him into the wall.

"Wow, that looks like it hurts. Anyway the trade is here, do you guys want to come with me," Eydis said, walking into the arena and gaining the full attention of Tuffnut. She received a chorus of yeahs before almost being knocked over by the still standing Jorgonsons.

"Hey Ruff, you coming?" the younger twin asked, grabbing his mace and giving his sister a quizzical look.

"I'll catch up with you in a minute, I want to see how bad Snotty's wound is." Ruffnut waved off her brother, praying to Loki he would use this time to try and woe Eydis. Did she think he was the most annoying and stupid person on Berk, gods yes; but he was still her brother and she'd be damned if she didn't try and help him win over his crush. And besides he didn't need to see her actually providing comfort to Snotlout, she'd never hear the end of it.

"That's a pretty nasty cut, and honestly I wouldn't be surprised if you have several bruises as well," Ruffnut stated kneeling down next to her friend and moving his hair so she could fully see his injured cheek. "Do you want me to help you to Gothi's?"

"I'm fine, why are you helping me anyway? That's not normal for you," Snotlout said looking up at the blonde.

"You looked like you needed a friend, but if you'd rather I leave you here to wallow in your self pity than be my guest," Ruffnut snapped, already regretting her decision. She would have left him then and there if it weren't for the fact that he had grabbed hold of her hand. Sighing, she sat down next to him laying her head on his shoulder; she had known him long enough that she didn't even have to ask what was bothering him. All his life he had been compared to his brothers and it was clearly taking a toll on him. No words were shared between the two, none were needed as the blonde used her emergency supplies to tend to the other's wound and placed a gentle kiss on his forehead, silently reminding him that she would always be there for him.

"You know I prefer you over them any day. They're not as fun as you," Ruffnut said, pulling Snotlout to his feet and walking to the docks with him, their hands intertwined.
