That's not fair, Discedo.

I know, it's better that she's back home, I know. And I know this place isn't fair, so don't tell me that either. But I never-- she wasn't even-- ...I guess I'm still a little selfish, huh?

Who left? Still no sign of Katara? Hn. Let us know when you're going out to help anything downtown, so we can keep track of whose on guard.

Also, keep the communicator handy, you're our emergency on-call hose down. The police are leaving Gohl St. patrolling all to us. (which is a good thing, but it means we gotta keep on top of things.)

...I can't wait for all this mess to be over. I wanna go hunt that Kraken.

[embracethewaves]

Oh-- Hikaru...my friend with the red hair. I haven't seen Katara either, though.

Mm, I'll keep in touch! If you guys even think she's coming our way, let me know and I'll come running.

No kidding~ I'd just like a few moments of peace.

[not_riku_thx]

Peace with a healthy side of squid stew?

...huh. Poor Sokka. I'd better go make sure he's okay.

[embracethewaves]

I think I can deal with that! I wonder if you can make takoyaki with squid...

I know. I'll go see him at some point too.

[mrbaseballfan]

You alright Umi? Are you guys at Gohl holding up ok?

[embracethewaves]

Mm...I'll be fine. Thanks, Ness! She hasn't come this way, so it's been pretty quiet.

[mrbaseballfan]

That's good.. One less thing to worry about. I've been on guard at Latimir and looking around, see if I can get an early warning.

[embracethewaves]

Mm, definitely! Let me know if you see anything that looks like a fire, okay? I want to help!

[skybound_love]

Has someone left you, Miss?

[embracethewaves]

Oh...my friend from home. I know she didn't mean to though.

[skybound_love]

I can see how this place would do that. Was she from your world?

[embracethewaves]

Mm, it happens a lot around here, actually... Yeah! I guess we went through a lot together, so we got close really fast.

[steelbloodseal]

Did a friend of yours go home, Umi? It's not selfish to want to be near people you care about...

[locked]

Ever since the whole... er, Walter ordeal, I haven't been able to use my alchemy. But I'm sure I could gather some sturdy plastic and ask Brother to transmute it for you!

THIS IS NOT THE HTML FAIL YOU'RE LOOKING FOR.

[embracethewaves]

Yeah... I think so, at least. She hasn't said anything lately, and I can't find her. Mm...I guess, but still. Wishing a place like this on a friend...

[locked]

Oh...oh right. That'd be really great though, thank you!

And, um...it's been a while, so, how are you?

DON'T TRY TO HIDE YOUR FAILURES

[steelbloodseal]

That's usually a sign that they've went home. I understand completely. You don't want them to endure such a place, but still you can't help but miss them. I guess there really is no solution... ah, but don't worry! You'll see them again when you go home!

[locked]

It's no problem! I'm just sorry I can't help you myself.

Oh, um, I've been alright. Keeping myself busy, settling back into normal life--or whatever can be considered normal here, heh. And I saved a guy from dehydration! How about you, Umi?

SHUT UP I HAVE NO FAILURES

[embracethewaves]

I thought so... Mm...you're right. Even if I have to wait a while before I can go home, I will.

[locked]

No, it's okay, really! It's not like you really had a choice or anything.

Oh, wow! You're certainly turning into a big hero, huh? Same here, really~ Except for saving people from dehydration I mean. I've just been helping protect the house and training a lot.

[onceahuman]

This place is almost never fair... I'm really sorry, Umi.

Luckily, I know about something that help you feel better.

[embracethewaves]

I know...I should have been expecting it, but jeez. Huh? What do you mean?

[onceahuman]

Doesn't get any easier... I'm gonna be having a girls-only sleep over at my place this week. And you're obligated to come!

[embracethewaves]

I know~ Ah! Right, right. I'll be there ♥
