02 [Video]

[Yue has been here for a little while now. This place isn't the Spirit World - in fact, it's not a part of her own world at all - and while she may be dead back home, this is another chance at life for her. And then she almost lost that chance when she nearly got executed on stage. Since then, Yue has been spending most of her time in her suite, except for when she has to leave to go work, or anything else like that.

It's something she struggles with, but if she's here, then she may as well... try to enjoy herself. Especially since she doesn't even know how long she'll be here. And besides! She's in the Water Sector, and the Water Sector is safe. So, if she does something that doesn't involve her leaving the Water Sector, then everything should be okay. ... Hopefully.

And that's why Yue decides to make a quick request over the network today.]

Does anyone here know how to swim? [Wait, no...] I mean, would anyone that knows how to swim be willing to show me?

There's water everywhere where I'm from, but it has always been too cold to try swimming properly. So... I never actually learned how to do it.

I only have a little bit to pay people in exchange, but I would be very grateful either way! [Yeah, she knows that probably won't be enough. But hey, might as well put it out there.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I'm pretty good at it.

[The look on her face suggests she's selling herself short for humor value.]

[Yue's getting that implication, although since she's never seen Nita in water, she doesn't get why that would be funny. Although, she does recognize her as the one who rescued the other woman that day.]

You are?

Namorita Prentiss. Just call me Nita, though.

[Of the Southern Water Tribe, sorta. She was born just off the coast of Antarctica.]

[Names! Names are always good.]

I'm Yue. [Um.]

... Just Yue. [She's starting to learn that titles are pretty much meaningless here, so introducing herself as 'Princess' would just be unnecessary.]

It's nice to meet you, Nita. [Ah.] Again, I suppose.

[Nita's a princess, too! Small turtle!]

Can't really say we met the first time, so yeah, nice to meet you.

I've got a lot of experience swimming but I'm... [A quiet sigh. She wishes she were already back on her feet.] not in condition to teach anyone or be in the water. Payment wouldn't be necessary.

You're not? [In proper condition,that is.]

Did something happen? [Conceeeern.]

[Well now Jill feels bad for mentioning it in the first place.]

It's a long story. [Pause.] I can teach you in a few days if you still need help.

I'll let you know - thank you for the offer. Although, if you're hurt, it might be wiser to try and focus on recovering for the next while.

... I'm Yue, by the way.

[There's a pause where Jill nods silently.]

Jill Valentine.

I'd be happy to show you, Princess. If you're still looking for an instructor.

And-- speaking of instruction... I was wondering, are you interested in learning martial arts?

Oh, um... you don't have to call me 'Princess', Asami! Just Yue is fine.

[She'd comment on the swimming thing, but Asami mentioning martial arts catches her interest a bit more.]

I can't say I've ever thought about it before. My father would have never allowed it. [But she doesn't sound bothered by the idea of learning. On the contrary, Yue actually sounds somewhat intrigued.]

Well... your father isn't here, is he?

[There's a bit of mischief to her voice, oh yes. She's learned all about defying paternal wishes lately.]

Would you like to learn? I've been trained by some of the best martial artists in Republic City, I could give you a lesson or two.

[That earns a small laugh from her.]

No, he isn't.

But I think that would be a wonderful idea! Especially with [um] everything that's happened recently.

Great! Let's start tomorrow. I'll come get you in the morning, how does that sound?

What're you, from the North Pole?

I am. [What about it?]

... wait, seriously?

I'm from the Northern Water Tribe. It's in the North Pole.

... Okay I think we're talking about two different things here. You're not from Earth, right?

[Ororo loads up the video actually looking interested.]

This sounds like a problem that a few pool parties would fix.

[God, yes please. Relaxing, mindless fun.]

Edited 2012-08-25 21:23 (UTC)

[well yue knows what a pool is and she knows what a party is so this in one instance where she actually knows what somebody is talking about. But mostly, Yue is just wondering what's up because ORORO YOU LOOK A LOT LIKE YUE DOES AND THAT IS CONFUSING TO HER. But also interesting. So you know what, she'll flip on her video, too.]

I... suppose it could? Although I'm not sure I'd want to have any more big celebrations for a while. [Considering what happened at the last one? Yeeeah, no.]

[It's kind of like talking to a different version of herself -- maybe one that learned English from someone other than John Wayne and his iconic movies.]

Then don't invite the kedan. [An eyebrow goes up and she smiles bitterly.]

[Haha. Ha. Oh, memories.]

I... don't intend to.

[Nice to meet a fellow OH-GOD-WHAT-THE-FU-- non-fan of the kedan.]

Make it strictly an A-list event and you won't have that problem. [She stretches as she thinks about that.] Like, put a ban on gills or something.
