EMERGENCY! THEFT AND EMERGENCY! THEFT AND EMERGENCY!
SOMEONE HAS STOLEN OUR AIR CONDITIONER! SOMEONE STOLE OUR AIR CONDITIONER!The theft occurred last night, under the cover of darkness! Oh, yes; how sly and sneaky was the thief, to use so convenient a time to perform his terrible deed! The darkness made it difficult to see anything--and, really

I'd offer you my air conditioner, but .. I don't have one. [ She's such a damn cheater, using ice, and frost-breath to stay cool. Unless you want her to come over and breath on you. Or like, freeze everything, she can do that too. Though it'd be messy. ]

[ A pause, and then a bit embarrassed. ]
Yes, I'm fine. I've been cooling myself off using my waterbending.

I'm not sure that they would have been willing to ask you though. You've seen how a lot of the people here behave in the news - threatening children, attacking people - heat doesn't make for the most rational of tempers, I'm afraid. That and they probably would have assumed you would say no.
[ And a grin. ] Yeah, I go swimming down at the lake, but I was referring more to the apartment I'm staying in for now. I bend water out of the pipes and make it into enough ice to make the area around me cooler. Then, when it melts I just bend it out of the carpet again and re-freeze it.

Making a sign and advertising would be a really nice idea, but you'd have to be careful in case anyone tries to take advantage of your kindness. [ Pause. ] You really have a daughter? [ He seemed so young -- of course people married fairly young back home, but... ]
[ A-and then at the latter...an awkard laugh at that. Sheesh Tamaki. ]
I wouldn't go that far...! [ Another pause, considering something. If she can work out the purification of the water... ] I try not to use it except when absolutely necessary, so I'm really just as hot as everyone else here. Hopefully the heat will break soon.

Ah, but--yes! Yes, I am lucky enough to have my daughter Haruhi with me here in this place! We were separated for a few months, but then blissfully reunited! She is the best daughter that any father could ask for, of course, so I'm even more lucky to have her by my side.
Yes, but when you do become overheated, there is an easy solution provided for you! You are so very lucky! Ah, do you refrain from using it because it's a tiring processes?

[ The city wouldn't be so bad if they all were able to work together, Not to mention this fuss over the core... but on to cheerier subjects! ]
I'm so happy for you, Tamaki. Family shouldn't be separated ... [ She trails off a bit - she can't help but think about her dad and her brother. ] ... um.. how old is she?
[ Another pause as she considers the latter. As much as she jokes with her friends back home about the awesomeness of waterbending, someone else gushing like that is a bit embarrassing! ] For something like that...? No, no it's not too tiring. I just.. don't want to rely overly much on my bending.

Hm? Haruhi? Oh, she's sixteen! Yes, a good portion of our little family is here--it's not quite the same without everyone, of course, but things are all right!
Oh... Ah, because you would become lazy, perhaps?
