One day I'll run out of Aus.

[whatsxing]

[Yes you see the icon? That is what we have staring around the streets of Central. He looks plenty lost and pretty out of place as far as Ling's go. It's probably the fire-themed clothes and accessories he's wearing

[whatsalchemy]

[This was bad, this was really bad, this was worse than a lot of what'd happened so far. He'd never lost Al and Winry both and if anything had happened -

anything at all -

he'd -

but what was important was finding them, not panicking, and also figuring out what the hell was going on.]

[whatsxing]

[Ling will tear his eyes away from the sign long enough to stare around the crowd a bit. Okay he was in a knew place. A place that was beyond the four nations.]

[Okay, so now what? He had to get home.]

[He nee--/oh hello there green and brown earthbender garb.]

[whatsalchemy]

[Oh, hey, it's Ling. Now they're getting somewhere.]

Oi, prince. You alone too?

[whatsxing]

[If Ed is paying attention, he'll notice the odd change of clothes (Re: royal attire), and the fact that his hair is a lot longer than it should be.]

...

[This earthbender is addressing him? That's. Is it another trick of the sign?]

I am. Can I ask who you might be?

[findmeafuture]

[There's someone else walking up to the sign from some other direction, though they don't notice Ling just yet as they're too busy staring at said sign with a skeptical expression.]

[whatsxing]

[Movement catches his eye and he turns to look.]

[Of course he ends up staring because, like the sign said, there is a double standing right there.]

[findmeafuture]

[Once he's done glaring at the sign, he finally takes more notice of the guy standing nearby- oh. that was-]

Ling? What the hell are you wearing?

[whatsxing]

--Y- [That wasn't him. That was someone that looked like him.]

Who are you?

[phytokinesis]

Ah... Ling?

[whatsxing]

[Turns quickly and ...oh! Looks down and blinks at the kid.]

...How do you know my name.

[Wary]

[phytokinesis]

Oh-- Sorry. I know a different you. My name's Fletcher!

[whatsxing]

Ah-- [right, the sign.]

Hello, Fletcher. [He does the typical Fire Nation bow]

Can you tell me more about this place?

[getinthejar]

[She's arriving too... but from an island. Yep. Where she's been trapped for the last few weeks.]

[And the first sight is... Mei paused, Xia-Mei crawling onto her shoulder.]

Greedy Ling Yao?

Sob I am sorry

[whatsxing]

[Pause.]

[Oh crap its azulaMei.]

Sister.

it's fine. x] ironically an a:tla rper, so it's good.

[getinthejar]

[She blinked. He normally called her "Chang"... And... they were only half siblings. Had something changed?]

[Abyssus had already taught her everyone came from different times, anyways.]

[Worriedly, Mei nods.

OH GOOD I DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN

[whatsxing]

[Well this is odd. She's dressed a lot differently and seems to be acting a bit differently as well.]

You have just arrived here, yes? Have you seen the sign? [Awkward.]

[whatsautomail]

[hum this looks like the Ling she knows]

I wondered when someone else would show up.

[whatsxing]

[Turns and---GAPS]

[because he's looking at your arrows.] The Avatar?

[whatsautomail]

[.....well that was an unexpected reaction, she stares at him a bit, expression neutral. He must be from a time before she met him, she's been here about 18 days so she's getting the picture.

She probably should just tell him the truth but.

Why not have a little fun?]

That I am.

[whatsxing]

[Oh. Well. That was--

What the hell did he do now?]

I-- I would like a word with you!
