In the year I've been here, I've never had something like these pains and bouts of insomnia last this long. It's really making me wonder if there's something going on that's bigger than a curse. Aside from that time people had memory lapses a few months ago, every other time something weird like this has happened, it's been because of something

Pains? ... And insomnia? Tyr, you too? [This face forever. Tyr didn't mention anything about those, though. But Ted does feel a bit of pain here and there, not that he's also gonna mention that.]

[stargathering]

[ ...He really should have watched his words. Tyr shakes his head. ] No, Katara and Luc. Katara's had insomnia and visions, and Luc hasn't been able to sleep either... Remember?

[startraveling]

I see. I thought you're having them, too. [Which really doesn't ease his worry.] But, about those pains... Have you been feeling them ever since all these started? [You know, the insomnia and all.]

[stargathering]

[ ...Stop being so intuitive, Ted. He only rubs his sore leg sometimes. ...Subtly. Tyr sighs. ] I still can't keep anything from you... Yeah, I've had them for about that long... It's not anything you need to worry about, though.

[startraveling]

Hey, you shouldn't keep anything like that from me, anyway. [He offers a small smile.] And they're pains, Tyr. Of course, I'll worry.

[stargathering]

The pains aren't real, though; the wound is completely healed. You shouldn't need to worry over something so stupid.

[startraveling]

H- Hey, you said they were pains so it's not anything stupid. [Pout, tsun.] In any case, even if they aren't real, we should still get you something if it's becoming a real bother.

[stargathering]

It's not that bothersome. It's in my head; there's nothing physically wrong.

[startraveling]

[A bit of a pause as he thinks about this.] Then, what do you think is the real pattern to this?

[ ...At least he's not prying into phantom pains anymore. It still makes Tyr a little uneasy, and he shifts in his seat, looking down at his lap. ] That the barrier and that sand tower aren't going to be the only things that'll fall apart... Like what Katara saw...

action forever;

[startraveling]

You don't mean-- [He'll bring it up later when he gets an opening. For now, he'll let it go.] --Wait, Katara's seeing what?

[stargathering]

She was seeing scenes of destruction...

[startraveling]

That's-- That's awful... And she's been seeing those things ever since she can't sleep?

[stargathering]

[ Tyr nods. ] I'm pretty sure that's the actual reason she hasn't been able to sleep...

[startraveling]

I see. [Pause, as he remembers something.] Tyr, you're aware of this weird girl telling everyone Katara's bad and stuff, right?

[stargathering]

She's obviously mistaken. [ Tyr says that positively and without any hesitation, looking back up at Ted. ] Katara would never do something like that.
