[Today, Katara is on a mission. There are people she has to thank for giving her presents, and to that purpose she has prepared small pressed impressions of dried goldenrods in glass (thank you, Usopp and the item shop) or pressed into paper with the words 'Thank You' written on it, depending on what she thinks you'll like more. Yes, this has ( Read more... )

[It's a rainy afternoon, but Raine's had a couple of errands to run, so she's prepared with hood and umbrella. Katara gets a friendly wave when she's noticed.]

[Katara waves back and approaches.] Hi, Professor! How are you today?

[Action] wise_maiden July 11 2010, 03:05:43 UTC

Well enough, Katara. How have you been?

[Action] markofthebrave July 11 2010, 03:15:20 UTC

Busy! I wasn't sure what I'd do all day without school in the mornings, but with the draft coming I can really use the extra time.

[Action] wise_maiden July 11 2010, 03:17:42 UTC

... Indeed. I hope that everyone is using that time as best as they can.

[Action] markofthebrave July 11 2010, 03:26:38 UTC

Me too. [A pause.] You're going too, right, Raine?

[Action] wise_maiden July 11 2010, 03:35:13 UTC

... Yes, that's right.

[Action] markofthebrave July 11 2010, 04:04:27 UTC

It's weird, isn't it? Knowing that we're going to go fight but not being in control of when or where...

[Action] wise_maiden July 11 2010, 04:18:52 UTC

Yes, it's rather disconcerting, especially since we're always reduced to waiting in some form. All we can do is prepare ourselves and hope that we'll truly be ready when the time comes.

[Action] markofthebrave July 11 2010, 04:40:59 UTC

[Speaking of preparing themselves...] I know that you're a powerful healer... but are you also able to fight?

[Action] wise_maiden July 11 2010, 05:04:56 UTC

To some degree, but defensive, mostly. I used to have a saying back home that women were better suited for battle. [She shakes her head with a small smile.]

[Action] markofthebrave July 11 2010, 17:18:20 UTC

Really? I've never heard anything like that, although the Earth Kingdom and the Fire Nation didn't seem to have a problem letting women fight too. [Nope. Just the stupid Northern Watertribe.]

How did the saying go?

[Action] wise_maiden July 11 2010, 22:00:59 UTC

... To be honest, it's been some time, so I don't remember the exact phrasing. Just more along the lines of how we tend to view things differently. In any case, you usually didn't see too many in an ordinary militia.

[Action] markofthebrave July 12 2010, 00:38:42 UTC

Oh. Is that what you had in your world - militias? In our world, the only nations which really had armies were the Earth Kingdom and the Fire Nation. In the Water Tribes, every man is trained to be a hunter and a warrior.

[Action] wise_maiden July 12 2010, 01:40:33 UTC

My world is a little complicated in that regard. Very few cities had their own standing armies, or even accomplished fighters... most areas were kept in check by a militant organization. Though things will likely change, since it's been dissolved...

[Action] markofthebrave July 12 2010, 02:20:51 UTC

So... in your world - there were soldiers who kept the law?

[In Katara's experience... that's never good.]
