Where: House Avatar
Summary: Just your average worlds colliding.
Rating: G for "greet?"

So... meanwhile, back at the ranch, there were opportunities for those who have caught their journals to know who's coming, and those who have not caught their journals to be taken by surprise at the new Water Tribe member in the house.

[He replies in an equally low voice.]

Yeah, sure. [So many things to talk about. Most of them he's afraid to. He starts for the window.]

[Aang doesn't pay much mind to the barefootness. There is still a bit of a chill. He walks several yards and turns to make sure Katara is following.]

[Aang keeps walking on and stops when the river is sight.]

Is this good?

[He looks towards in her direction. He wasn't really sure why he had chosen the river. But he felt some concern that she was having trouble sleeping too.]

It's fine. I hadn't fallen asleep yet.

[He pauses and tries to think of a place to start. He just knows he has to be honest.]

I... I've been thinking about everything a lot, Katara. Everything that you and everyone else has told me. It's a lot, and... some of it scares me.
savedtheworld: (meditation)

[He quietly seats himself down. He knows he probably looks like he's a kid again, but he knows he has to work through this. And Katara's the best person to help.]

At first, everything looked... so happy and good. A city that helped the world to be in balance in a new way. Zuko's still alive and still himself. And... and o-our family. There will be Airbenders again. [Pause] But I can't ignore the bad parts anymore, when with every other arrival it becomes harder.

[He tries to look into her eyes.]

I... I never thought that there would be any other b-bloodbenders. Or that I would take another person's bending. And that it would... inspire someone else to try taking the bending of everyone, from my family and Toph's daughter! Korra's going to help them, but I can't. I won't be there in the living world for them or you or anyone!
savedtheworld: (sad)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2012-07-14 05:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Her hold helps to calm him, but his breathing is still heavy.]

I... I guess you're right. Like with Ozai, I really must have thought he'd be powerless without his bending. [Pause as he goes onto the other portion] Korra's really a great person. And I'm so grateful to her for saving our family and the city. But I still wish I could be there. Actually there. That I wouldn't leave you behind, and that I'd be able to see them. [His eyes dart in the direction of the house at the latter part of the statement.]
savedtheworld: (frustration)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2012-07-14 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Her listening is helpful. It makes him dig deeper.]

And it makes me hate this place and myself. Because now I... I want to stay here. I don't want to forget Ikki and Jinora, because this is all the time I'll have with them. And I know how horrible it is for them to be here. But I still can't bear the thought of them being gone, Katara!
savedtheworld: (sadthought)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2012-07-14 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
[And he grasped her shoulders for support, as he looked down at the ground.]

When I'm around either of them, it's just... so easy to forget everything this place has done to us. And it's been so long since I've been around any kind of actual Airbender. But... but I know now what it'll be like back home. I have fifty-two years left, and the only other Airbender I'll know in my life is Tenzin... who - who I know will alone be more than I could have hoped for. I know I'll love him, but I already love them too.
savedtheworld: (worried)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2012-07-14 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks, Katara. I... I'm glad you understand. I'll treasure all the time I have with Ikki and Jinora, a-and... anyone else who might end up here. I'm glad that we've been able to take care of them so far. And I appreciate everything you've done to make this comfortable for them.

[He glances up at her briefly before returning to the ground. He knows there's something else related to his lifespan that he has to get out.]

But... I feel kind of conflicted, too, when I think about how long I'll live. Did you know that Avatar Kyoshi lived to be under 200? Whenever I thought about that.... I was always afraid of outliving all of you and being alone again. Now I know this won't be the case, but I'm still worried. Because you'll be the one who's left. And I'll.... I'll be stuck in the Spirit World forever.
savedtheworld: (fond)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2012-07-14 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
[He looks into Katara's eyes for several seconds before making a slow, decisive nod.]

You're right. There still is a lot to look forward to. And I know that... even if we can't see it coming back home, we'll make every moment worth it. [She's been there almost every day of his life since he woke up from the iceberg. And it looks like that'll continue, as long as he lives. He still doesn't like to think about afterwards, being stuck in the Spirit World with just the other spirits.

I wish I could come back for you, when you're ready.]


It... it does feel a little better to talk about all of this.
