Book 4: Winds from Tomorrow [Action: May 30th-June 1]
[Action: Days 5-7]
[It's odd for Aang, waking up in House 56. What is this, some sort of bunked bed? He can't remember whatever led him to sleep there. Doesn't this violate his decision to maintain some distance from his younger friends? He slips out of the house early in the morning, or tries to. It's possible that anyone else in the household could have caught him before he was able to leave.
Aang spends the rest of the day and the next two days going back to his daily routine. He meditates in the forest near Avatar House. He goes through town, either casually strolling or zipping through on his Air Scooter, to stay social. On Day 5, he also has to set up his tent near his meditation spot again. Where could his old tent have gone?]
[ooc: Aang is aged up (kinda)-canonically to around his 40s. He also remembers Luceti in an alternate way where he was brought here at this age. The shift has also caused some memory fluctuations (who's that Yakone fellow again?), although the possibility always remains that he's actually from a somewhat alternate version of canon (aka my handwave if my few assumptions get jossed)

The tent and the man meditating not too far away from it catch his attention, however, and he pauses.]
...that's new.
[It's muttered, mostly to himself. Was this something to go in his notes?]

Hello, friend. Would you care to join me?
no subject
I was just passing through, honestly. Meditation and I...never really got along.
no subject
It has many benefits, but I admit meditation isn't for everyone. However, I am willing to settle for making a new friend. My name's Aang.

[He goes to offer his hand, but looks at him curiously at the mention of his name.] Aang. As in the Aang that decided to give Luke a pie to the face on his birthday last week?
no subject
Word gets around fast. I thought he needed a demonstration of a good old-fashioned prank.

...he debates the name to use during this introduction. Lupin? Or Red? He was trying to keep the transitions smoothe for Lupin when he returned, but this man here looked intuitive enough to tell the differences.
It was better to be honest.]
Just call me Red. Lots of people do.

It's nice meeting you too, Aang.

[His smile is understanding. The life he lead wasn't one that he would wish on others, and would advise against. The rewards were great, but the sacrifices were some that many just could not make.]
It is hard to live like that. Why would a man like you have to do it?
no subject
The truth is, back home I am an important figure known as the Avatar. And when I was young, I spent most of a year running from the Fire Nation with the best people I've ever known. At one point, things were bad enough that I had to disguise my identity as an air nomad completely beneath a head of hair. For a while, it felt like I had lost my identity and my honor. But... I was eventually able to be my self again and bring the war to an end.
no subject
...if I may, what do you do as the 'Avatar' that makes you so important? It's not a term I'm familiar with.
no subject
And that's a reasonable question. It's something that seems exclusive to my world. The Avatar is born to one of the four nations in a cycle of reincarnation and is supposed to act as a mediator to keep the four nations and their respective elements in balance. We also have more power than others in our world, such as the ability to bend all four elements. I was hunted back then, because of the threat my existence posed to the Fire Nation in their war.
no subject
...what do you mean by 'bend the elements'?

[It wasn't that Red didn't understand, but that was his best comparison. Working extensively with Luke to rebuild the Order left him with a variety of knowledge and understanding, but anything beyond the core information was beyond him.
He chuckles, mostly for himself.]
Didn't realize that similar positions existed across universes. It's pretty cool that it works out so well.
