♥ 1. Where did you come from? You may not know anyone else on the boat, but you've all got one thing in common; you're headed to Republic City.
♥ 2. It's your first day in Republic City. You might wanna get a job lined up or you'll be living on the streets.
♥ 3. You're the new person in the city. You gotta make some friends, right? Go find someone and strike up a conversation.
♦ 4. Feeling a little crafty? Maybe you could make a quick yuan. Sell information for money or do a little threatening.
♦ 5. Vines. Vines everywhere! They're like the heads of a hydra. What are you going to do about the vines that just invaded your apartment?
♦ 6. Triads, Equalists... thugs in general. Welcome to the aftermath of losing a fight. Are you gonna go find a healer or are you gonna tough it out?
♣ 7. You've got a job. What is it? How are you going to get customers? You better get some soon. More customers equals more money.
♣ 8. You're a bender, right? Then you better practice it. What's that? Oh, a non-bender? You can still find a partner to spar with, right?
♣ 9. It's late. Have a drink at the pub! Get to know one another. Let it all flow freely!
♠ 10. Yeah! You've got a driver's license! Everyone else better watch out...
♠ 11. Entertainment's just rolled on into the city! Watch the ostrich-horses race or the acrobats perform. Or maybe you're one of them!
♠ 12. It's a long line at whatever vendor you're at. Make small talk with nearby civilians or try and haggle the vendor down to a better price.

Did you just say you can airbend?!

Yup! [ Why is he so surprised? ] Wait, you haven't heard? Airbenders have been popping up everywhere. One day they're non-benders and then--POOF!
savedtheworld: (got to be kidding)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2014-09-23 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
Poof?! [Sorry, he's new here. This is all kind of a shock.]

Is that possible? I- I never thought people could get bending like that! Are you sure you airbended?

I don't think it's something that's supposed to happen normally. It has something to do with some spirit portals Avatar Korra left open, or...something. [ She doesn't pay attention to the news as well as she should. ]

Hey! I'm sure I can bend, look at this. [ It takes her a moment, her expression twisting in concentration. All her other airbending stunts had been accidental. She's never attempted to bend on purpose, but she manages to send a gust of wind forward with a frustrated push of her hands. ] See?

[Spirit portals? Avatar Korra? He's not exactly sure what it all means... but it could sound possible.

Either way, the evidence in front of his face trumps everything else. He'll be pulling another shocked face as he sees the wind being produced. There's no other explanation from it.]


Whoa! That's it! That's - that's airbending alright! Poof!

[Airbending. Airbending. After all this time, he's seeing someone else airbend in person.]

[ She grins and nods, both as an affirmative reaction to his statement, and as a way to acknowledge her own pride at having airbended. ]

Told you. It's pretty cool, huh? [ A beat. ] But I guess you would already know that, since you're an airbending master and all.

[Some quick, excited nods.]

Uh-huh! I guess you know all about the tattoos, huh? It really is the coolest! And I think that airbending suits you perfectly.

[ She looks pretty pleased by that. Her family was always going on about the Fey's ancient airbender connections, so it felt good, to know airbending suited her. ]

Guess that means I'll have to do my best! Maybe one day I'll even have tattoos like yours.

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2014-09-27 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
[It's a little weird to imagine someone else with tattoos. Someone he just met!

But she's an airbender, too. He nods.]


I believe in you, Maya. I'm sure you'll get them someday! And then no one can question how many pies you throw at them! [Yes, Aang, yes they still can.]

If you ever need any pointers, I'll be glad to help you out.
acebaker: (pic#8319881)

[personal profile] acebaker 2014-09-30 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Great! I'll work extra hard, then. For the pies!

[ Priorities???? ]

Thanks, Aang. I'll come to you, when I'm stuck! You'll be my own personal airbending coach. [ She's mostly joking. Mostly. ]
savedtheworld: (eager)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2014-10-04 01:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Now that's the spirit! [He says with a laugh.]

I'd be honored! But it sounds like you have most of the pointers down already. Some of the things that help most with airbending are a positive spirit, taking things easy and wanting to have fun!
