--oh, shoot. Just how do I work this contraption? I knew I should've asked for specific directions... Is it a phone? Or... something... huh?

[ The feed opens up to one confused looking Avatar with a hand paused mid-scratch at the side of her head. Blink blink. She straightens and attempts to clear her throat a bit, but even doing that does nothing to remove the slightly confused frown on her face. ]

So... Keeliai. [ how does i start conversation to people she isn't even sure she might be speaking to ] It's... a nice looking place, I guess. I have so many questions, but I think I should start off with...

What next? I mean, if anyone's got any helpful suggestions on how to deal with this place, I'd be all for it. Really!

[ Pause. ]

Uh-- oh, right! The name's Korra. It's nice to meet... whoever'll be answering this message. I hope. Ugh.

[ She's making a fool of herself, she knows it. ]

And what makes you say that? What's living here been like, anyway?

...It's boring. Nothing much goes on here, but it's not bad if you came from a place where too much happens.

You kidding? Things were definitely happening before I was whisked away to here!

Well, then, think of it as a break?

I... wouldn't be sure on that. When I said that they were "happening," it was something pretty urgent. Civil war just broke out in the city I was supposed to defend!

[ Ahhh, shit. :( He cringes. ]

I'm sorry. Hopefully you and all the rest of us find a way back.

Thanks-- it's just... I hate feeling like I abandoned them, you know? Even if we really can't control leaving or entering this place...

I'm sure everyone knows you didn't do that. It's not that simple.

I'm starting to get that hardly anything ever is these days. [ Sighing so hard. ]

Hey, chin up, kiddo. It could always be worse.

"Kiddo"? [ Getting a dubious eyebrow raise, York. Sure, Lin called her "kid," but in her case? That makes sense. ] And... yeah. There's always that. With one of my friends here, I'd say I lucked out somehow.

What?

[ He raises his eyebrows at that. ]

Until you hit your twenties, I think kiddo is pretty accurate when you're talking to an old guy like me. [ He's mostly kidding-- he's not that old, not really. ] But 's good you got friends here, that's true.

Hey, I was actually thinking you were pretty young looking! You don't look that old, pal. [ Huff puff, obviously the teasing sort of flew past her head. But then she shrugs. ]

But, if you're gonna be that way, I'll say "thanks, old man." [ Or maybe she actually did! ]

[ York can't stop the shit-eating grin at that, laughing openly. ] Points for the flatt--

Ohhhh, and they're gone. [ ice burn on him there, Korra. ]

You say "kiddo," I say "old man." That makes us pretty even on the scoring.

[ You get your own shit-eating grin here. ]

[ He's still grinning, at least. ]

Seems fair enough.

[ She chuckles at that. At least she's getting more comfortable now than she was several minutes ago! ]

So... got any friends of your own in this island?

Nah, none from where I'm from. Not sure if it's good or bad, yet. Made some friends here, though.

Why wouldn't it be good?

'cause everyone has stuff going on back home. And some of 'em shouldn't be here. They're uh. Not the best of people

[ She thinks on that, and... ] I can... totally understand that.

[ Because, you know. Amon. Creepy ass mofo. Anyway! ]

... well! Can't leave an old man by yourself sometimes. Guess you'll have to deal with me for a "friend" for a while.

Eh, there's always worse things, right? You seem preeeeeetty okay, I suppose.

[ :> ]

Just "okay"? Pfft. Hah, I'll take that. For now.
