[He's not used to working with people that can't handle daily monsters. Demon hunters and demons are his routine, so Hiccup's panic is a bit out of Dante's usual territory. But he seems to be holding up just fine, so the half-devil keeps going, wrestling with the water creature as it tries to bite him and snag Toothless and Hiccup in alternating, furious attempts. When they come up, Dante is still holding onto the side of the animal, clothes waterlogged and hair hanging down over his face. So much like a drowned white and red rat that it would be funny. If they weren't facing a raging monster.]
Oh, great. Now I'm gonna have to dry it out.
[He sounds irritated, but it's the tone of a man that just took a dunk in the mud wearing a nice suit rather than a man that is literally dodging the jaws of a river beast, which he has to do as the creature turns its attention to the extra weight sitting on it now that they are above water. He gets up and leaps out of the way of a bite, still standing on the monster's back, and damply gives Hiccup and Toothless a salute. He's not happy about the whole situation, which is probably the first sign he's actually taking the attack seriously, but he refuses to let that get his mood down.]
If it's mad, then it can be scared. Give 'im a good hit. That sound get his attention.
