One day I'll run out of Aus.

[Yes you see the icon? That is what we have staring around the streets of Central. He looks plenty lost and pretty out of place as far as Ling's go. It's probably the fire-themed clothes and accessories he's wearing

[findmeafuture]

[There's someone else walking up to the sign from some other direction, though they don't notice Ling just yet as they're too busy staring at said sign with a skeptical expression.]

[whatsxing]

[Movement catches his eye and he turns to look.]

[Of course he ends up staring because, like the sign said, there is a double standing right there.]

[findmeafuture]

[Once he's done glaring at the sign, he finally takes more notice of the guy standing nearby- oh. that was-]

Ling? What the hell are you wearing?

[whatsxing]

--Y- [That wasn't him. That was someone that looked like him.]

Who are you?

[findmeafuture]

Me? [He frowns. Was this what that sign was talking about?]

If you don't know me, then forget it. Wrong 'Ling', if that sign is right.

[whatsxing]

I see. [Well that solves that question.]

But- Who are you?

[findmeafuture]

Does it matter?

[But he answers anyway.] I go by Greed.

[whatsxing]

[Pauses to briefly do that bow, then answers his question]

I'm merely curious. You know me- look like me- and yet I don't know you.

[findmeafuture]

You don't, huh? [Scoffs.] Figures.

The Ling I know is my brother- biologically, anyway.

[whatsxing]

...Twins, then?

[findmeafuture]

I assume so.

[whatsxing]

...Do you have a sister, as well? [Trying to gauge similarities.]

[findmeafuture]

As far as I'm aware, no. But then, I only met Ling recently.

[whatsxing]

[That's interesting. He's mostly in thought now. He didn't know for sure if there was a Mei in the picture but saying they only met recently suggests that ts possible he has a twin in his world too. Not like it wouldn't be above his father to do something like that, after all.]

[findmeafuture]

[As if following the same train of thought-] I wonder if you've got a brother out there somewhere too.

[Then, also gauging similarities.] You a mutant?

[whatsxing]

I wouldn't say its impossible.

[Blinks up at.] Mutant? Ah, no. I'm a firebender.
