video, @hiccup

[When the video starts up, it's a little shaky, jostling as if the person behind the camera is trying to get situated. Eventually it evens out, and focuses on a creature a few yards away - about the size of a large cat, with the head of a chameleon and bulbous eyes, long body flocked in short, vibrant orange fur, a curled tail and four grasping little hands like a monkey. It has all four of those weird little 'hands' curled around a fallen stick, where it perches on the makeshift log in a field of tall grass, occasionally fluttering the set of dragonfly-like wings on its back.

Hiccup's soft voice comes from behind the camera.] And this seems to be the natural habitat of the furred chameleon. It prefers tall grasses to hide from predators, although the bright colors make me think it might be venomous also. It's, uh, it's kind of the opposite of camouflage out here, so-

[As the furred chameleon opens its mouth, long tongue shooting out like a frog's to catch a colorful beetle buzzing by, the camera jostles again. A black shape blurs onto the screen, leaping into the stalks of tall grass and rolling joyfully.] Wait, Toothless-!

[The furred chameleon lets out an indignant trill and flies off. All that's left on screen is a delighted looking Night Fury, rolling around on his back like a cat in the grass, flattening a good sized patch of it. Dryly, Hiccup continues,] Well, there goes my biology extra credit. Is that- is that dragon-nip? Ah, we're gonna be here a while, huh, bud?
