Okay. [ PFF that was CLASSIC Zuko. Katara almost laughs, instead pointing. ]
You see, that right there - that was exactly how he'd say it. I'm definitely not imagining things.
Gran Gran used to say that the more you spend time with someone, the more like them you might act, or seem. I guess that's true now. [ ... okay so Gran Gran had mostly been talking about pets... ]
--No reason! [Wait, like that's not suspicious. THINK OF AN EXCUSE...] I, uh-- It's a secret.
[He is the worst liar ever.]

A secret? What's going on? [ SO NOSY, KATARA. ]

[KATARA DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE THIS MORE DIFFICULT THAN IT ALREADY IS. "Stitch" gives a long-suffering sigh and rubs his head with a paw in annoyance.
--And quickly stops. Having fur and claws feels weird, and he is this close to freaking out again. THIS. CLOSE.]
If I told you, it wouldn't be a secret. That's the point!

Fine fine - but you can at least tell me how you met Zuko. Unless it was just that you pounced on him like the other day that was pretty surprising.

The network.
[And the furball has been trolling him ever since -- this is just the icing on the cake. "Stitch" scowls.] So have you seen him today?

It's really sweet that you two get along like that. [ HE HAS SO FEW FRIENDS. Er i mean. ]
Reply
Yeah, really sweet.
[Sarcasm, he has it. At least Katara seems like her usual self.]
I doubt he's working today, so just keep a lookout for him, okay? This is important.

[ There's a pause. ]
You know, it's no wonder you're friends with Zuko. You sound a lot like him.

I'll be around the islands.
[And checking on Charmander back at the house when no one's around. He feels awful for leaving it on its own.]
--We're not friends! [Okay, now he really does sound like himself. He quickly changes tack.] Uh, I mean-- We sound alike? You're imagining things.

[He groans and facepalms. Today is the worst day ever.]
