[ there's a moment where the view is upside down- and it's of nothing but a blue arrow. he pauses, holds it out further so the entire person holding it is in the shot (still upside down) ]

I think I figured everything out. Sort of. I can just talk into this, right? And then everyone else sees or hears it? [ there's a pause where he's not sure what to do after that. is it even working? how would he know? ] It's so weird to talk to people without knowing if you're actually talking to people.

Uh... - I'm Aang! Hi. Weiss said that this was an entirely different world. Thanks for the introduction explain by the way if you can see this! She said different world so I was wondering where everyone else came from to begin with? I only know the one I came from-- Okay, technically two but the Spirit World is interconnected and I can be in both at the same time so I'm not sure if that counts.

Also, how do people go about finding out if anyone they know is here? Or has anyone seen a flying bison around? Do you guys have bear-bears or different kinds of bears? What's a video anyway? Is this a spirit world or a regular world?

You're welcome.

[ She knew switching out the lame outdated flyers that started off with "DON'T PANIC" with something of her own design would pay off. The idea of "bear-bears" though, that sounds like something that Zuko would say when he was getting pissed off about her dog-dog just being a dog... and he did mention the spirit world to her and wait, wasn't Aang the name of--

Ooph, she wasn't exactly sure what to do so she just locks it after you're welcome after she clearly seems to realize who he is. ]

You aren't the Avatar, are you?

Hey, this thing works! [ she can see him. he can see her, as evidenced by him immediately flipping the screen right side up now that he can see the mistake he made. he's all smiles after that. ]

That would be me! I didn't know that information went across worlds... [ he trails off and that smile fades because how many worlds was he supposed to be bringing balance to all this time? avatar duties might have a really far reach and all this time he was just easing into it. oh great lion turtle. ]

[whiteas]

It doesn't and I'm not from your world I just know some people from it.

[ This was nice while it lasted, she's pretty sure. She isn't 100% sure if Aang being here is a good thing or a bad thing, but someone should probably give him a heads up before he goes and says hi to Zuko loudly and openly while Azula is nearby. ]

Zuko, Ty Lee, and that Toph girl are all here. And Azula, which is why I made this conversation private. I have no idea how that's going to go over but if you talk to Zuko, you need to make sure it's private too because Azula believes he and Ty Lee are both on her side right now and personally? I'd rather keep Azula as a friend rather than someone I have to fight without trying alternative options first.

[Have a very attractive face just beaming at you, Aang.]

Oh, I wouldn't worry too much about what kind of world this is, or what kind of animals we have... you won't be here for long.

[Griiiiiiiiiiiiin.]

[video]

[energybends]

You guys figured out how to go home already?

[ he'll just grin back ]

[video]

[warring_triad]

Going back? How cute.

I am the God of Oblivion. I have come to give this place what all things that exist truly yearn for~! The embrace of the void~!

[luckymonster]

And I thought you can't get any more stupid.

[An easy retort. Still, there was a war brewing inside her. What is she supposed to do with the avatar if she kills him. No father to present him to. But killing Aang would result to their complete conquest of the world. Decisions, decisions.]

[energybends]

[ he's silently thanking weiss for that little warning before he saw this or he would've had a lot of questions ]

I didn't know you were here. [ on a scale of one to ten how great is his lying? at least he can play it off as being nervous because it's azula and they both know she is currently debating murdering him in her head right now ]

Is there another way I was supposed to greet people?

You set the bar too high. Lower it, then you'll be less surprised.

[ oh no. oh no. for over six months, zuko's kept his carefully crafted lie up. azula doesn't know he's a traitor, azula will never know — except now she might, because the one thing that could shatter his deception is now here. azula will probably want to go after the avatar, and he doesn't know if he can talk her down from it. and she'll be expecting him to fall in line. ]

voice | locked to aang + zuko;

[banishment]

What do you think you're doing? I'd tell you to get off the network, but she's already seen you.

[ he tries to keep in mind that aang's new here and he's only doing what he and countless others have done upon finding themselves in this strange land, but its hard to. he and ty lee are lying through their teeth and now aang is here—

he huffs irritably, forcing himself to calm down. it's not aang's fault that he's here. ]

I might be able to detour her for a bit. Just don't take anything I'm about to say to her to heart. She sort of believes I'm still on her side. It's complicated. I've— We've been here a while.

[filchedfruit]

Hi Aang. I'm Joruk. My world is called Earth, but I kinda suspect there's other versions or something. It has bears.

[ He's from an earlier time]

If anyone knows you, they'll probably see this and respond.

Video is what these moving pictures are called. How they work is a bit beyond me. I never saw them before the whole waking up in the bay thing.

[energybends]

Nice to meet you, Joruk. I guess you're right about that! There must be different versions if we're from different places with the same name. What kind of bears?

They already have responded. Wasn't exactly who I was hoping for but that's okay.

Me either! They're really neat.

[neverdrunk]

It does seem like you've gotten the hang of the device we've been given. [It's said with a smile, one of those soft, closed eyed sort of deals.]

It's very nice to meet you, Aang. [And you have a lot of questions.] Has anyone answered your questions yet?

video

[energybends]

We don't have anything like this back home so I'm in a learning process with it. Got any advice?

And it's nice to meet you too. People I know are here and I now know what a video is. It's not a spirit world. But nobody's said if they say my bison or what kind of bears they have though. Only one person told me where they were from too.

[betel_geuse]

"Whoa, kid, that's a lot of questions. Yes, you just talk into it. Sorta. Anyone who is using their video thingy at the time or turns it on will be able to see and hear you, unless you filter it," Betelgeuse began, answering the questions in order. "We come from a lot of different places. I'm from Earth.

Basically, you look for them with the video feed or just travel around, asking if people know them. A video...erm. See, you kinda take a bunch of pictures of people all in a row and somehow...I don't know it gets sent as energy or something to other people and the pictures get put together, so it looks like the pictures are moving. It's based on how you make cartoons, I don't know.

Nah, I'm pretty sure I would have heard, if there was a flying bison around. Um. I haven't seen any bears here, but we probably got all kinds of bears, from the different worlds. Guess it depends on what you consider a 'bear-bear,' know what I mean?

This definitely isn't a spirit world, though it probably has one. My turn, kid. How are you able to be in the spirit world and regular world at the same time?"

[energybends]

Everyone's said Earth so far but I'm under the impression it's different versions. [ earth with just bears and no other bears too. how weird. ]

...What's a cartoon? And not like a platypus-bear but just a bear-bear.

I can explain that one though. See, I can put my spirit in the spirit world but leave my body behind while I do it. So I'm in both at the same time, see?

[inquisitoring]

I can't say I've seen a bison that flies before unless one was made to by a witch. Not that such a thing has happened in my lifetime--though, there was the one case of a goat ending up on the roof of the Great Archive.

video;

[energybends]

That sounds like a funny story.

But Appa's not made by a witch. He can just fly all on his own like the flying bison he is. I'll show you if he's around but nobody's said they've seen him yet.

action; probably later? (hopefully not as late as i am ._. let me know if you'd rather skip ahead??)

[seismos]

[ she's so excited, that toph doesn't bother with calling out to aang. instead, she'd rather greet him as abruptly as she did when she tripped zuko at their first meeting. the difference here is that she assumes aang will be on his toes and ready to play.

her feet dig in when she spots him, arms guiding through the air to send a couple small waves toward him. surf's up, little dude! ]

action; it's not like 100 years late so you're fiiiiine

[energybends]

[ he's on his toes alright. luckily her training does him so good and it doesn't catch him completely off his guard. close call but at the last second he's jumping up to avoid getting rock-rolled right off his feet and on to his butt.

when he lands, it's behind her in an attempt to get some sort of surprise jump on her ---which she might punch him for but hey he'll take it ]

Hi Toph!
