"And through the rise and falling apart"
Who: Aang and Katara
What: A much needed conversation
When: April 16th
Where: House 56 -> THE OCEAN
Summary: ...soooo there are some things they need to straighten out
Rating: G for 'this should be good?'
[Time is the sweetest balm. It's been... nearly a week now, and Katara's starting to feel much more like herself. And as such... she really wants to not have to talk to Aang about That Night, or about what he called her when he first arrived, or about any sort of heart-manipulating experiments and their results, or about Masaomi...
She really doesn't want to have to talk to him about that. She just wants things to stay as they are, while he's here - happy and content, as best as possible. But... he remembers things differently. Or - he remembers things that haven't happened yet. And if she doesn't share of some things that have happened to her, and if she attempts to brush over the things he's told her, and what she's learned, then... then they're living a lie just as foul as one of the experiments. And she refuses to do that.
So after dinner, and after an abbreviated time of practice, Katara knocks on Aang's bedroom door.]
Aang?

Great! Sokka's really stepped up a lot with his creativity.

[And moving to the front door...]
no subject
Still pretty neat, all the new things you can learn here. And you're learning how to use cool machines too!
no subject
Yeah, there's all kinds of things that you can learn here, from all different worlds. [She gives him an almost shy look.] I've even taken up learning to fight with a weapon and found ways to incorporate it into bending.
[And she holds her breath because... preserving her cultural heritage by learning to bend had been the most important thing to her for a long time. And waterbenders don't use weapons in their bending. But. They can take your bending away here with the snap of their fingers. And she won't be defenseless, a dead weight, ever again.
It's not the worst thing she's done with her bending. But she's still a little nervous to see what he'd think about it.]
no subject
A weapon? What, uh, kind?
no subject
[She said on a shrug.]
It's... a little like you fighting with your glider. At least, that's what Sokka said when he helped me pick it out.

I don't usually practice it with bending. It's more of a... fallback.

I've gotten a lot stronger since I've been here, but just knowing that they do that made me want to make sure I'd be able to handle it if they took my bending away completely.
no subject
That's a good idea, Katara. I should try to think of something for myself.
no subject
[She, on the other hand, is having a flashback to that armor he put on before Sokka went to learn from Piandao.]
no subject
[Dat armor.]

But. She really doesn't want to get into talking about the drafts with Aang. This would be enough for the night.]
I'm sure Sokka would be happy to help you out with that.
[And they approach the teleporter...]
no subject
[He grins and looks towards the teleporter.]
Is that it?
no subject
[And then there was some fancy finagling, since I'm not exactly sure how the teleporter works. I think there's a lever involved.]
no subject
Wow...
no subject
[It activates]
And then--
[teleporting!]
You're at the ocean.
[And so they are!
Or at least, on the beach, a little bit away from the actual ocean itself.]
no subject
Whoa, this is amazing! It really worked!
