[Private to Iroh, Zuko, Toph, Aang, and Break:]

Come help me catch dinner. I'm at the lake.

[Private to Zuko.]

Please? [Zuko is the only one listed above who she thinks might ignore the invitation. :/]

[To everyone else:]

[Katara has apparently forgotten to switch off the video after sending the messages to the rest of her housemates. You

Nice fishing technique, Katara.

[kyasdaughter]

Thanks. I think it's making me a little lazy.

[feel_nevermore]

There's nothing wrong using the powers you have.

[kyasdaughter]

I know, I know! But still.

[He watches the sight of the waterbending for a second before:]

You look like you're doing fine by yourself.

[Same Filter]

[kyasdaughter]

[Oops! Katara looks at the PCD in alarm. The globe of water pops and drops the fish back into the lake.]

Oh, no! My waterbending's broken. I need help.

[Same Filter]

[innerfirewithin]

[... really, Katara.]

It is not.

[Same Filter]

[kyasdaughter]

Oh. Well. [She rolls her eyes at him.] I guess a Fire Nation prince wouldn't be any use when it comes to fishing, anyway.

Aang!

[Katara grins at him, flicking just a bit of the water from the lake in his direction.]

Let's have a bonfire tonight.

Getting Zuko to agree was easier than I thought it'd be.

[Nope. She won't stand for that. You retaliate with a little water, and she's just gonna retaliate with a little more.]

[reckless_equine]

That's an inventive way to fish.

[This is Ranma being amused.]

[kyasdaughter]

It certainly makes things easy on me.

[reckless_equine]

It probably would. Plus it makes great practice, ne?

[kyasdaughter]

I guess so. This is the sort of thing I've been able to do for a while now, though.

[He just watches for a long moment, expression a little difficult to read. Interest? Possibly.]

[kyasdaughter]

[And she'll continue to fish -- except that she's just having fun with manipulating the water and playing with the fish more than anything else. Tyki will get a solid view of her creating swirls and playful towers of water from the lake before she notices that he's watching at all, and she gives the PCD a startled look when she finally does.]

[sleightofhearts]

[He's fine with watching. It's actually quite interesting; and, in a way, it reminds him of his own abilities. Her abilities far more fine-tuned, of course, between the globes, the swirls, and towers, while Tyki's were more like a bull in a china shop; just point and blow up.]

[When she starts, he props his chin on his hand.] When the squid comes lurking near the surface to wonder where its water has gone, I'll be sure to say it was Scars instead.

[Katara jerks her wrist, pulls her fingers in. One of the splashes freezes, hardening into a spire of ice.]

Don't call him that.
