doitrockapella: (ADJUST ❖ feels good to be a gangster)

His other great literary accomplishment involved immortalizing the fact that Hiccup's Cubone once hit our poor Viking in the head with her Bone Club.

"A graceful swing! The club connects!
And as her father, sore, objects,
A growing lump upon his head
Is rapidly a-growing red."

Carmen applauds his artistic pursuits but concedes there is a certain amount of room for improvement, particularly in terms of vocabulary choice.

Yeah, honestly 90% of what I do boils down to either "would this be funny" or "is this a new twist on something I haven't seen yet". I know a lot of trainers, for example (Riku included!), have trained their rosters to respond to nonverbal commands, but I hadn't seen anybody yet who actually tried to train their roster to be outright autonomous, and for Carmen it seemed to make sense so I decided to give it a try. Which led me to breaking down the whole roster into groups and subgroups within an almost military-style hierarchy, such that I always know who answers to whom and what group will get deployed where depending on what special need requires it.

And details on Sly, Ringo, and Ivy are forthcoming!
