♥ 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.

[He's now sitting casually on his moving air scooter, and he beams as she names her destination.]

I love harvest festivals! I wanna go there, too! Do you need help getting there?
raaagequits: (smile; it'll be okay)

[personal profile] raaagequits 2014-09-23 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[...That face tho. Aang, you are so freaking cute.]

I think I know how to get there... [...this is not convincing. She points in the direction of the harbor, kind of the opposite direction from the park.] It's this way, right?

[It's the face that launched a hundred Fire Nation ships.

Aang doesn't really know his way around town himself, but he does know what's in that general direction.]


Really? I'm pretty sure I was over there before and there's nothing there but the harbor.

...Ooh! Is it a water park?
raaagequits: (confused; uh)

[personal profile] raaagequits 2014-09-23 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[..........UH] W-why the heck would they have a harvest festival at a water park??

[Wow, if only Republic City had Google Maps. This may not end well. Umi's shoulders drop in defeat.] Uhm. Maybe the other direction, then...?
savedtheworld: (has a good idea)

[personal profile] savedtheworld 2014-09-23 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
It'd be creative...? [He shrugs, and then he turns around.]

That way, that way... Yeah! I think I did see a park that way! Do you want a ride?
raaagequits: ([deadpan] no really?)

[personal profile] raaagequits 2014-09-23 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
["Creative?" Who is this kid, anyway...??]

A ride? On that? [Umi pauses for a beat, looking at the...the air scooter. Well, she does need to get there pretty quickly...so despite her (many, MANY) hesitations, she decides to throw caution to the wind. (And hopefully not the sweet rolls, eek)]

[...wait] This is safe, right?
savedtheworld: (laidback)

It is! Don't worry, it should be able to hold a person even if they can't bend! As long as I keep it running.

[He then bends some more air into it, making it a little bigger so there's some room.] As long as you keep your balance, things should be okay!
raaagequits: (surprised; wasn't expecting that!)

[personal profile] raaagequits 2014-09-23 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
A...alright. [Balance. Okay. She can do that. ...Maybe.

It takes a few moments for her to get the hang of, essentially, balancing on a giant ball of air. She's never actually known any airbenders, so this is definitely out of her realm of expertise. But when she feels like she's got the hang of it, she gives a nod.]


Okay-- I'm ready!

Great! Now here we go! [He gives her an encouraging smile before he looks ahead. And they start zipping ahead in the direction of the park! Don't worry, he's not going too fast. He doesn't want her to accidentally fall, but it's at least faster than a walking pace!]
raaagequits: (silly; wuh??)

[personal profile] raaagequits 2014-09-24 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeek--!

[Oh, huh. It's not nearly as scary as she was expecting. In fact, it's kinda...nice? It's certainly a different way to see the city going by!]

Boy, this must be really useful, huh?

It really is! We airbenders, we really know how to get around! [The glider and Appa are just two other options for today's airbender on the go.] We'll be there in no time at all.
