So, who all here is into racing?

[simple, direct, to the point. she's smiling as she says it, though. It's about equal parts mischievous and competitive.]

Oh! And for anyone working on or interested in Mr. Kent's newspaper, I'm going to be writing a section on automotives. If anyone has any information on any of the vehicles or mechanics here, I'd love to talk shop. Thanks.

[She gives the camera a little wave, and disconnects.]

Is winning really that important to you?

It's pretty good, yeah.

I bet I could think of something better.

[Oops there she is being mischievous again.]

[EYEBROW RAISE]

Oh yeah? What're you suggesting?

Why don't you come over? I'll show you.

[This is not what you're even remotely thinking, Tommy.]

[well it's a good thing he's not drinking anything because he would have just spat it out. It takes him a few miliseconds to recover, but that smirk is dirty as hell. But what better way to forget what happened with Steph, than by spending time with good company?]

Yeah? Okay. Now good?

Now would be perfect.

[here lies danger, tommy.]

[Too bad he doesn't see it.]

On my way, sweetheart.

[and he's there in about three minutes, knocking on your door Asami.]

Door's open!

[You wanna know what she's up to, Tommy? Baking. She is in fact pulling a tray of (slightly crisp) cookies out of the oven as he comes through the door.]

[He opens the door and is hit with the smell and is pretty much by her side in a sudden blur of movement.]

Oh man, those smell amazing.

Thanks! I've been practicing.

[... a lot.]

Would you like one?

[She's actually gotten to a point where she can call them 'decent' instead of 'malformed hunks of inorganic material'.]

[Tommy leans over to get a better smell, and grins at her.]

Duh. [You shouldn't trust his tastebuds Asami, he eats pretty much anything because of his insane metabolism.]

Careful, they're still hot.

[She sets the pan down on the stovetop, pulls her oven mitts off and tosses her hair over one shoulder.]

So how've you been?

[He reaches out and takes one, hissing a little when it burns his fingertips. He tosses it from hand to hand for a few moments, whilst he talks, to cool it off and then takes a bite. And replies with his mouth full.]

Oh y'know--fff. [he has to try and cool the cookie down in his mouth oh man she wasn't kidding.]

...Fighting gangs and being awesome. The usual. --These are really good.

[She covers a smile with her hand. She did warn him, after all.]

Thank you. I'm not exactly used to things like this so-- it's definitely a new experience.

You weren't hurt during the fighting, were you?

[He finishes his mouthful and actually blows on the remainder of the cookie to try and cool it down before shoving it into his mouth. He has to pause when she talks though.]

You heard about that?

I-- heard about what?

[No, she didn't hear anything, but she's definitely giving him a look of concern now.]

[He gives a small shrug, frowning a little. He's glad that Steph hasn't told anyone about what had actually happened.]

I got some shrapnel all up in my leg. [He points down where it had been.] It's no big deal, I've had way worse before.

Tommy! Don't just say it's no big deal! Are you all right? My friend Korra, she's a healer, you should have her look at it.

[omg babby no. she looks genuinely distressed at the fact he's been hurt okay]

[he's not used to being fussed over. He sort of stares at her for a moment.]

--Yeah, I'm fine. My friends Steph took the shrapnel out and my brother healed me. I sure wouldn't be standing if they hadn't.

[He's not going to mention the emotional trauma it dredged up, nope.]

Good. Don't scare me like that.

[She leans back against the countertop, fingers curling under the edges.]

I'm glad you're all right, and that there were people there to look out for you.

[he finishes the half of the cookie he is holding on and nods.]

You didn't get involved, did you?

[is that a hint of worry?]

I did. During the riots.

[She notes his concern and reaches out to touch his arm briefly, a little gesture of comfort.]

It's all right, I've had a lot of experience with this sort of thing.

[He raises an eyebrow.]

What, Republic City not a safe place or something?

Not... as much as you might expect. We had a war recently.

[She sort of offers a helpless little smile. Sure, everything worked out for the best, but-- it was still hard on people.]
