[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?

[ Just a second, bro, you have no idea how very happy, happy, relieved, and ohyeahalsohappy she is to see you. She feels like she might just burst from the relief and the happy. You totally did not just see her eyes get glassy for a second there. Nope.

Take a breath Katara.

Oh God this is going to take forever to explain.

Or else it will be shockingly simple.

And then I will realize I shouldn't be surprised either way. YOU ARE SO UNPREDICTABLE AT TIMES BRO. ]

[ Hurrying to pack her things is where she is and what she's doing. She hands the gear over to Nari who just blinks in surprise. Kishi is watching her trainer pack up with surprise, but she can easily see Katara is excited about SOMETHING here. ]

It's a really, really long story. I'm coming to get you, right now. [ She'll have to leave it up to Winry to take care of the eggs for now, Soul's was already sent off with Claus, so she thinks this should be fine. She immediately grabs Jet's Pokeball for use.

... Pause. ]
