Katara's been scarce lately, but not on purpose. Jet takes up a lot of her time and so does Steph, to the point where most of her meals are taken in her room or his room or Steph's room or

"It's his real name," Katara replies in a laugh, grinning at her. "And he was-- well... he and his friends, his group, they didn't carry messages. They were trying to help people, though."

They were just doing it wrong.

[allican_do]

"Oh, you mean they're just regular messages that you carry? Letters and things?"

Shaking her head once YT starts looking embarrassed, Katara grins and waves a hand, as if dismissing the topic. "It's kind of a theme with everyone that comes to Milliways, isn't it? People who save the world. At least, it seems like it, most days!"

Katara laughs and shakes her head. "No, I didn't mean-- I'm sure you're not a jerk!"

As for the people, there's a glance given around the bar. Some of them she knows by sight, most of them not at all, and then there are the precious few that she actually calls 'friend' here in the bar.

"I don't know. A lot of people who don't look or act like much can be the ones with the most power."

Even her boneheaded brother was occasionally brilliant.

"Stuff like that can still save the world," Katara replies, drinking the last of her cocoa. "They might not look at it that way, but what they thought and did might have done more than they even now about."

A second later, after she realizes how ridiculous she probably sounds, Katara smiles sheepishly and slides her mug away. "...that's just-- how it's been for me and my friends, the people we've met. But I haven't met everyone here."

"Still working on it," Katara replies in a grin, looking entirely too pleased with herself. "My brother and I are helping our friend, really. It's his job to save the world and ours to protect him."

So they're saving the world vicariously!

"It's nice to have it, tough or not. I'd never left my tribe before we met Aang. Now we've traveled all over the world and we've helped so many people. We're making a difference - more than we ever could have if we'd just stayed at home."

As for pizza brainwashing, Katara laughs a little and grins. "Sounds-- exciting?"

"I think the awesome stuff comes with the world-saving," Katara says, grinning. "And weird stuff, too, but-- mostly awesome." And occasionally sad and depressing, but awesome and weird makes better conversation!
