[payback]

... Woah.

[Is this a blast from the past, or what?]

Jet?

*__*

[rappelle]

[ he's a little bit irritated, excuse him. ]

Alright, maybe you'll be up to giving me a better answer as to how you know my name.

[payback]

... I can give you the actual answer, but just as forewarning you're probably not going to find it convincing.

[rappelle]

Part of me saw that coming. Go ahead and shoot anyway.

[payback]

You've been here before. You won't remember having been here, because nobody who gets brought back does. I knew you then.

... It's been a couple years now.

[rappelle]

...

You're right. Can't say I'm all that convinced.

[ although, katara did say... ]

[payback]

Hmmm...

Your friend Smellerbee was here for a while too.

[rappelle]

[ surprise. ]

Smellerbee was here?

[ pause. ]

You knew her? Didn't she annoy you with how girly she could get?

[payback]

Let's at least skip past the really obvious tests, please?

[rappelle]

And skip to the part where I immediately start trusting the girl talking to me through a book? Not gonna happen.

[payback]

Suit yourself. You'll find if you read back, you'll see old entries. You'll have to page a ways, though.

[rappelle]

[ there's the sound of page-flipping for about minute, and then... yeah. ]

Who're you?

[payback]

I'm Rin.

I also have your dog.

[rappelle]

.. I don't have a dog.

[payback]

You got one while you were here. He's more like a cross between a tiger and a dog, actually.

[rappelle]

I definitely don't have a tigerdog..

Alright. Say I believe you. About this whole being here before thing. ...How often does that happen?
