Book 8: Stay Flaming, Next Life [Video/Action]

[Video]

[It seemed like a normal day for the 14-year old Avatar until airbending training came to an end with no sign of Korra. There were any number of reasons for her absence - she didn't exactly have a reputation for punctuality - but he couldn't help but worry. He started towards the other Avatar House to check, only to find Bolin, now the sole resident of the house. And there was only one conclusion: Korra, his reincarnation, had gone back home, to whatever world it was he and his friends would help to shape in the future.

He addressed the journals with a light smile, and he tried not to sound solemn.]

Hi, everyone. It's me, Aang. I just wanted to let you all know that Korra's gone back home. From what I know... she's going to be fine and become a great Avatar. And she's gonna save a lot of people, including my family. But aside from all that, while she was here, she was... funny and tough and nice and a great friend. [A little tougher than he expected. But she was also a living not-so-welcome reminder of his own mortality, due to being his next life. He still regretted not getting the chance to talk over some issues with her.]

I feel grateful to her, and I hope you all remember her, too.

[Action]

[Aang will spend time at the item shop and the clothing shop getting some manner of materials for this "Halloween" thing that Ikki keeps talking about. Feel free to run into him; he'll be collecting large quantities of red and blue materials piecemeal to make a costume for Appa that looks like the "Superman" person that Katie told him about. He'll also be trying to put together a Robin costume for himself.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Luke's heart went out to Aang, it really did, and when he heard the announcement he headed into the kitchen and began baking sometime. Nothing fancy, but just a simple pie from a cookbook Adele had left. While he worked, he turned on the video feed and sent Aang a message.]

I'm sorry to hear about Korra, Aang. I know you'll miss having her around, and while I never met her, with a sterling recommendation like that I can honestly say I'm sorry that I never did.

[He disappears below the counter as he slides the pie into the oven to bake]

Still, it's probably better that she's at home with her friends and family. I know that probably doesn't make you feel any less disappointed that she's gone, but it's for the best.

Yeah... you're right. Things are peaceful right now in her time. [Although that makes Aang realize he never learned anything about Korra's family. There's a lot he could have asked.] And she has less to be frustrated by back home.

Definitely.

[Luke leans against a countertop]

There's nothing wrong with being sad she's gone though. Its like I told you before. You got a chance to see beyond your lifetime, and that's always nice.

Yeah. In some ways it... is kinda good to see the future like that. I'm glad I got the chance to see what my successor'll be like. But I'll miss her, too.

[...]

She was the girl who talked a lot about boys right-nya? Was she really that tough-nya?

A... little bit of a lot, yeah, I guess she did! And she was really tough, did you ever see how many muscles she has?

Nya, I didn't nya. But her pictures from the journal always made her look purrty strong nya! You make her sound like a superhero nya.

Well sometimes the Avatar is kind of like a superhero in some ways. But you don't have to taunt her like that.

[ .. oh, now this is something familiar to madoka.. hence why she goes quiet for a moment, almost awkwardly fretting, before she speaks up, trying to keep her own tone hopeful too. ]

I'm sorry, Aang-san. I didn't know her, but.. I still wish her the best.

Thanks, Madoka. It means a lot. [Especially since in a way, it was wishing him well, too.] It's too bad you didn't get to meet her. But... I'm gonna be fine.

Of course you'll be. [ she smiles. ] You're.. really, really strong, I really admire that! So I don't doubt that you'll be fine even now, especially with your friends helping you out..

Ihanks, again. You're really strong, too, Madoka. And I do still have plenty of friends from home who I'm glad to see. [Even if he knows they'll all be better off back home in the end.] And I have my friends here - like you!

Shaaaa, Korra-chan, huh. That's almost a shame.

Yeah. It was... It's nice knowing her, but it looks like she's going to be okay, so it's not a whole shame.

All the better to know yourself, huh?

Um... yeah, kinda. In a way?

[Being alone is kind of weird, but he's glad he didn't have to be the one to announce Korra's absence.]

Thanks for letting people know, Aang.

[It felt like he was taking a burden off of Bolin's back to volunteer to tell people. But Aang still felt really badly for Bolin. He had very quickly lost all of his friends who were here, and it was horrible to imagine that happening for himself.]

You're welcome, Bolin. It seemed like the least I could do. I know she made some friends while she was here, so they had to know. [And announcing it... helped to give it that finality, which helped him to move with that wind.]

Well, at least she's back home so she can get on with beating Amon and saving the world and all that.

Hello, Aang.

[She remembers the boy from art club and she's curious about the materials he's buying. It seems like a lot for a boy his size to be purchasing, but perhaps he's going to make a garment for more than one person, or perhaps it's for a curtain or a tent.]

Is that material for something you're making for the art club?

[He turns to see her with arms full of red and blue fabrics.]

Oh... Hello, Konan! No, it's not really for the art club. It's for Halloween!

Halloween? What is that?

[She doesn't think Halloween is a person, but she supposes she could be wrong.]

An event of some sort?

[ Yuri's not really a Halloween person, but if Aang gets her into the mood she might do something for it. Of course, now that she's here in the clothing shop and noticing all these different Halloween-themed things, she's really reaaaaaaally thinking of getting involved in the fun! HM.

--Oh there's Aang. ]

What do you need that much material for?
