[Seeing herself looking back at herself in the little window on the corner of her monitor, Korra gave a stumped look and tapped the little camera lens that the desktop was using. Seeing her huge finger tapping back at her caused her a smile and she cleared her throat. Music can be heard from the speakers.]

Ahem. Hello. My name's Korra, I just got here. I'm the Avatar, but I'm not too sure that means anything here. [She looks both angry and confused, immediately wondering why she just thought of that now instead before.] But anyway, the kedan informed me that I should probably get a job. [Of course it probably sounded a lot nicer when they said it.]

So if anyone knows of a good place to work at, I'd appreciate the help. [She leans forward and puts her forehead in her hand, admonishing herself for not bringing up what she would able to do for work.] Um, I'm a bender, I can create fire and move water or earth around or into just about any shape or form you need? [Ice sculpting crossed her mind. She'd never given any thought to it. Then again she was never too artistic to begin with.] I don't know if fire matters? Burning things doesn't sound a like it'd be in big demand...

Also I'm a former pro athlete! If there's any kinds of sports going on I'd like to get into that! [A smile spreads across her face.] Doesn't even have to be a job, just for fun.

I'm in the Metal Sector if that helps. If anybody's from there we can meet up and you could fill me in a little more about this place? Looks pretty cool to be honest. Oh, and food, meeting at a restaurant would be good. [She stares at her monitor screen with her lips pushed to one side of her mouth.] And any advice or pointers on these things- [She points at the monitor, which just seems like she's pointing at the viewers.] would be welcome too. The kedan gave me a quick once over for it, but I'm not sure that's going to be enough.

[There's an long awkward pause as she looks left to right nervously.]

Yeah, that's about it.

You will.

I have two. One on either side. They ended up becoming some of my best friends on the whole Turtle.

[And then some.]

Yeah, you can move if you really want. Some people like to Sector Hop depending upon where their friends from home end up.

It definitely makes the whole congratulations-you're-trapped-on-a-giant-Turtle news a little easier to bear.

I'm Zatanna.
backwordscompatible: (pretty much)

Uh...thanks?

[The 'cool' part, she got. It was the rest of the sentence that had her momentarily confused.]

I had two, but got fired from one a few weeks back due to extreme prejudice. Long story.

For the moment, I'm working in a little magic shop on the sector's edge.

Oh, great. You'll probably feel right at home, then.

[Don't mind her sarcasm, Korra. It's not directed at you.]

All kinds of magic. Flight. Teleportation. Transformation. Healing. If I have enough power to supply the spell, I can do it.

[Fabulous. They'll understand each other perfectly.]

I can.

But isn't that what you were talking about before? With the elements. That sounds like pretty routine spells to me.

Not as far as you think.

I was born with the ability too. I inherited it from my parents, but it took a long time of training with my dad before I could use any spells properly.

[Magicbending. Nice. It actually had a pretty good ring to it.]

A little of both, really.

I mean, I'm not exactly fluent in divination, but any magician worth her trade knows the basic of tarot card reading. The store itself is mostly for supplies. Herbs. Charms. That sort of thing. And I enchant them for an additional fee according to store policy.

I can use magic to cook. And I can summon things if I know where to get them. Creating something out of nothing is a little harder than that, though.

[Well excuse fher for not working miracles, Korra. Sheesh. Don't be so picky.]

Someone else's.

One of the few kedan who didn't really care whether someone was a local or foreigner. Unfortunately, she more than makes up for it with her bias towards magic users and against those without any powers.

Maybe 75% of them, yeah.

Oh, there's plenty of spots. I wasn't kidding when I said the Turtle was huge. If you're willing to make the journey, you can head all the way out to shell's edge. It's pretty peaceful out there most of the time.
backwordscompatible: (THIS much)

[She'll assume that's far, not knowing if Korra's "south pole" is the same as Antarctica.]

Impressive.

The trip's not too bad. If you can fly, it takes less than an hour. One time, a friend of mine and I raced each other there. 20 minutes, tops.

Technically, they were Green Lantern Energy-powered flying motorcycles...but, you know what? Yeah, let's go with magic.

[It saved her the trouble of having to explain exactly what Green Lantern Energy is. Even better for her, considering she only had a vague idea herself.]
