[After a few hours of watching, pushing buttons, and general trial-and-error... The camera focuses on a cheery blue ball rolling out of the frame… and then back in. And then back out… back in. Back out… back in. Wash, rinse, emphasis on repeat. This goes on just long enough to prompt thoughts of whether or not it’s a recorded loop before Sokka breaks the silence.]

Anybody got a name for this thing? It looks like a seal that swallowed a whole melon! Which I’m sure was not appreciated by its sister seals. Melons being a precious commodity and all, d’you know how much we have to trade for one? Tons of seal pelts. Way too many to risk actually feeding a melon to one.

Seals only eat fish, anyway!

Also, why is it blue? Seals don’t get cold enough to turn blue. Anything who’d turn blue at living in the Poles reeeeally needs to go house-hunting. Like, far away, because ice is really the only building block we got. I mean, they’re good insulation, but only if you do it right. And that tends to require opposable thumbs. Flippers are cool, but this guy's are seriously weak.

So… help?

Oh!

[Tone change here, much more casual.]

That's cool. Sorry about the hard approach there, but, you know, it's a big brother thing. I get here, I find out my sister's been by herself without her bending and I get a wary of everybody who might be a potential threat.

So... you're her friend, right? She's totally doing okay and not just acting like it so she can play mom and stuff and not worry me?

[Ed raises a brow. He's seen Katara pissed off. Actually, he's been the one to piss her off. Then again, being a big brother himself, he kind of understands that Sokka would still want to protect his sibling, even though her she could probably level all of Johto in her anger.]

Yeah, I can see that.

[He nods.] I met her when I first got stuck here. You really don't have to worry about her.

Yeah, I know. Usually, it's her worrying about me, but that gets boring after a while.
