It was time for their litter to catch a glimps of the surface world. They're almost five years old, they're good fliers, Runt taught them well. Now it was time for them to find out about the world beyond the Birthplace.

It's a long trek for the Night Fury, who hasn't been able to fly for a very, very long time. He's missing a tailfin and the human who used to make it died many years ago. Not that his old age helps matters. Even so, Runt is patient, as he always is. He needed to have patience with his mate, too. When he knew something for a while that took him some time to figure out; that they belonged together.

Their four kits are not as patient, much too eager to get going every time their birth father tells them it's time to let their father catch up. It's not often that they're allowed to leave the nest, let alone be allowed to travel for this far. It doesn't matter that their wings aren't used to this kind of distance yet, they want to keep going.

The Night Fury catches up for the final time, hating how he can't keep up anymore. Climbing up on the cliff they're waiting at him for, he hangs his head, sits and pants. While his daughter and sons are playfighting, Runt comes over to him to lick his crown and nuzzle him. He's telling him that he did a good job making it here, knowing that his mate is older than he can ever dare to fathom. He knows he once knew a time when the humans still used boats made of wood.

He grumbles like the grump that he is. Not that he doesn't appreciate Runt's affection, he loves him more than life itself, he just also wishes he was still as young as he is.

Runt nuzzles him until he nuzzles back and then the two of them lie down and take a breather. Cuddling up, his head on the Night Fury's. Seeing an opportunity, the Runty Son worms his way between his parents and finds the warmest spot that he can get.

They rest for a little while as their litter keeps themselves busy. When Daughter comes to pull on her birth father's earfin to get him up and going, Runt figures it's time to go.

Stretching before rising to his three feet, he accidentally wakes the Night Fury up. He stretches and struggles up, too, many of his joints popping with every little move he makes. Runt whimpers for him, but the grump, grumpy as per usual in his old age, doesn't want his sympathy.

Afterwards, they both look up towards the hole that is their destination. It's one of the ways out of the Birthplace and into the Surface World. Hiccup's world, even though Runt can never remember.

Beyond it is the starry night sky and they've chosen the perfect night. There are no clouds in sight and the moon is full. If there is ever a night to chose to give them a taste of the world above theirs, this is it.

The Runty Son is nervous, but Daughter can hardly wait and her enthusiasm infects her other two brothers. The Night Fury leans down, snips her in the butt and causes her to startle. With a grumble, he reminds her to listen to her birth father and she meekly concedes. She'll listen or be send right back down.

Runt licks the Night Fury's crown as a goodbye and he returns it, licking his chin. Then he does what he usually does to show their litter it is time to take off. He stands near them, looks down at them and spreads his wings. Their offspring follows his example, dutifully standing next to him, their big eyes moving from him to the sky, two butts wiggling in anticipation. They can feel the breeze and they want to soar through it.

He takes off with a strong beat of his wings that almost knocks the four kits over. Luckily, they know to brace themselves and expect it. A moment later, they all follow, Runty Son included, and they leave the Night Fury behind.

He watches, proud with a bittersweet aftertaste, as the five of them take to the starry night sky and disappear. Blending in perfectly with the night, like they were born to do.

I love how there are a few things in every Alice Oseman book. For example, Tumbler. This is in every book but I see it used a lot more in Radio Silence. I find it very interesting because you see how Frances use it a lot along with Tori. You get to see their messages a lot and it’s very entertaining. I have not seen a single book that she has written that didn’t include Tumbler. It’s something that stay the same each book. It’s nice.

There’s also for some reason skinny jeans in each book. I don’t know if they are very popular in Europe since I’ve never been there?? I just see that one a lot and it’s easier to imagine the outfits because most of the time the characters are wearing sweaters and skinny jeans.

Anyways yeah, I just think it’s cool that there are some things that stay the same in each book.

There is a secret medicine given only to those who hurt so hard they can't hope. The hopers would feel slighted if they knew. You were born with potential. You were born with goodness and trust. You were born with ideals and dreams. You were born with greatness. You were born with wings. You are not meant for crawling, so don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly. ~Rumi~

Hi! I've been looking for it but I couldn't find anything :( I guess that an only thing we've got for now is this translated episode 1 of the season 2 that one good soul uploaded on Youtube. I hope that DFB Play will upload s2 on their site in the future!
