[There is someone else Katara forgot to lock this from]

"Uhuh."

[Jet muses with a raised eyebrow. He hasn't actually intended to say anything- much as he is WELL-versed in this topic. It seems someone hasn't quite caught on to the concept of knowing when he's started a transmission]

[Sfgsvngjkfs. Damnit, she forgot he was even on this stupid boat! A hand smears down her face briefly. She could ignore him; it's not like she wants to talk to him... But he probably would know a lot about what she wants to learn.]

... Got any insight for me?

[Jet doesn't respond for a good few minutes because that is exactly how long it takes for the rebel to realize that last sentence isn't tacked onto the rest of the first transmission- it's directed specifically as a reply.]

[A reply to him. Well- Fffff-]

[Not that he can't cover up his surprise suavely]

"I might, yeah~"

[smooth, Jet.]

"Didn't think you'd want to hear it from me,"

[A tentative pause just in case she changes her mind and jumps at his throat.]

"People aren't that hard to figure out. It's when you over analyze that things get kind of crazy. The question you really need to be asking, 'hypothetically,' is if being obvious is something that might push the other away or not."

[There. He helped. Sorta. And this is now the most awkward conversation he's ever had in his not-life.]

[Audio] noturmother October 5 2010, 01:04:24 UTC

[She harumph's, arms folded as she listens. She didn't jump down his throat, because he probably had better information on a guy's point of view out of everyone she'd talked to so far. Except maybe for that one guy from Texas. Still didn't know his name...]

For the record, I don't want to talk to you. Or hear you, or see you.

But. You probably know better than anyone. ...And your advice proves that. [Close to a thanks as you're going to get, bro.]

So what happens if you don't mean to be obvious, and the other person starts pulling away out of the blue?

[Audio] paranoidpatriot October 5 2010, 03:28:00 UTC

[It's a good thing these things only caught the auditory response and not a video. It meant that Katara wouldn't see the small ghost of a smile that snuck itself between the Freedom Fighter's lips. Even if its through insults, Jet's ego enjoyed being stroked]

"If they're pulling away and you don't know why, you have to find out. It's not that it means you've done something wrong, as much as it is that you aren't what they need. Everyone needs something, Katara, and if you can become it, they're as good as yours."

[Not to say he isn't curious about why Katara wants to have this conversation, but even one stray word out of place would probably break the temporary trust he's been given. He'll have to cautious if he wants to find out more.]

[Become what they need? Oh good, a waterbender is totally what a fi-- Nevermind. She heaves a little sigh. Just about everyone she knows needs a lot of things, but... It's an interesting view point.]

Huh. I never thought of that... [Pause, because she is seriously considering.] Thanks.

[And a quick followup] But don't think this means I want to hear your 'advice' whenever you feel like opening your mouth, got it?
