You know, this place really isn't so bad once you let yourself have a little fun.

Library

[lord_wizard]

[No good traction here. Or terribly good balance for that matter.

Thus, pretty much doomed, Felix is on his way out of the library with this typical stack of books, not paying all that much attention when his foot suddenly slides out from under him - his books flying back in a flutter of pages as he falls rather heavily to the ground like a uncoordinated foal.]

[kyasdaughter]

[Katara actually gives out a celebratory laugh as she springs out from behind a bookcase, looking more pleased with herself than should be possible. Books are everywhere. Flawless victory.]

[lord_wizard]

[Except now she has an extremely unamused wizard on her hands, if the glare he shoots her is any indication.]

What the hell are you doing?

[This is ruined somewhat by his inability to get enough traction to stand up at the moment]

[kyasdaughter]

[She affords him a smug sort of smirk, folding her arms across her chest triumphantly.]

Oh, me? I didn't do anything. Might want to be careful, though - that part of the floor seems awful slick.

[lord_wizard]

[That excuse might have worked, had he not seen her abilities in action]

Is that so?

[He growls under his breath as he plants his palms down upon the icy floor. In seconds, the ice begins to melt until he can manage to stand up. So...okay, he's wet now, but on his feet]

I seem to recall a certain waterbending brat doing something like this in town not too long ago.

[kyasdaughter]

[Her posture straightens, expression going from amused to annoyed in an instant.]

Did you just call me a brat?

[lord_wizard]

[A small, cruel sort of smile appears on his lips]

I call things as I see them.

[kyasdaughter]

[Oh, she doesn't like that at all.

Katara gives a hard jolt of her arm, and the ice beneath Felix's feet slides.]

[lord_wizard]

[Or, what's left of it. It's enough to knock his feet right out from under him again, in any case. He crashes to the ground again, letting out a pained cry as he catches himself awkwardly with his arm.]

You!

[kyasdaughter]

That's what you get for calling me a brat!

[lord_wizard]

[Oh, he's mad now. Madder than he's been in a long time, but he has the presence of mind to tell himself she was only a child. It's enough to keep him from lashing out with his magic. For now]

Thank you for proving me right. Now get out of here, before I report you to the Peace Patrol.

[kyasdaughter]

Oh, like the Peace Patrol could do anything about me. I was on the Peace Patrol. Worthless bunch of idiots.

[-- but she skedaddles anyway!]
