New Villagers part 2

It was yet another sunny day on Berk and Emily exited her new house, exposing her to the warm air. She looked around to see Berkians walking around, talking, and laughing. She saw Hiccup and Astrid walking hand in hand. Hiccup said something into Astrid's ear and walked over to Gobber. Emily took this as her chance, walked up to Astrid, and stuck her hand out. 

"Hi, I'm Emily Cloner." Astrid shook her hand. After their hands separated, Emily wiped her hands off on her skirt, and Astrid looked at her in confusion. "Sorry, I just don't want me, a human, having any physical contact with whatever you are." She waved her hand around as she spoke. 

"Excuse me? You were the one that stuck out your hand." Astrid said while she rolled her eyes. Emily ignored her.

"So, where do you live?" Emily asked, looking around. (That's an awkward question)

"In that house up there." Astrid pointed to a fairly large house about ten stone steps up the hill.  

"Can I have a tour? I love how people arrange their houses on the inside." She asked the Chieftess. Astrid eyes her skeptically but nodded nevertheless and gestured to follow her. She turned in the direction Hiccup was standing.

"Hiccup!" She called. Hiccup looked at her. "I'll be right back!" He nodded and the two woman made their way to the house. Astrid opened the door and told Emily to go in. Emily stepped in and followed Astrid. "That's the kitchen." It had a wooden table with four chairs around it, a counter, and a tub of water with dishes next to it. They walked into the living room which had a fire place, a couch pressed to the left wall, a fur rug in the middle of the room, and drawings in wooden frames on the wall. One was a drawing of what looked like to be Hiccup and Astrid on their wedding day. Another was Hiccup and Astrid as young teenagers. Another one was of Valka and a buff man with a red beard. And the last one was of two dragons, a Blue deadly Naddar and a Nightfury. 

"Who's that man?" Emily asked. Astrid looked at the picture and sighed.

"That was Hiccup's father, Stoick the Vast." She said sadly.

"Was?"

"He's no longer with us and don't ask questions about his death. It's personal and Hiccup prefers not to talk about it." Astrid said sternly as they walked up the wooden stairs. She pointed at a door to the far left of the hallway. "That's Valka's room." She pointed to two other doors across from eachother. "Those are empty." They walked down the hallway and she opened a door. "This is where Hiccup used to make inventions." Emily peered inside and saw a desk that was covered in papers, two saddles, and a red tail on the floor. She shut the door with a heavy sigh and ran a finger through her long hair. 

"Why doesn't he invent anymore?" Emily asked, curious. 

"It was usually for his dragon, Toothless, but since he isn't living here anymore he stopped. He will once in a while but yeah." She said moving on. She opened a door to a fairly large room. "This is Hiccup's and my room." In the middle of the room, pressed up against the wall, was a queen sized bed. The bed was covered with the most expensive fur blankets on Berk and pressed up against the back board were expensive feather pillows. On each side of the bed was a wooden table. On the table to the left was a coal pencil, a candle, and a notebook. On the table to the right was a candle, a chain with a pendant laying on it, and a book. By the left wall were two wodden dressers, an open window, and a mirror. (Don't know if their were mirrors but roll with me here.)  On the right wall was a desk and a chair. Astrid walked into the room and shut the window, walked back out, and closed the door. They walked out of the house and stood outside of it.

"I'm impressed. I didn't expect you to live in a place like that." Emily said with a smirk. " Maybe something smaller. Something so much more uncomfortable. Like a cage."
