Book 9: Refreshed Air [Action/Video]
[Action]
[This morning, Aang did not wake up in his bed. No, he woke up some ways outside of the village, with an old friend. It took soe time for Aang and Suki to come to grips, but eventually the facts became clear. Suki had come back to Luceti without memories. At the same time, Aang had spent an overnight trip home. He lived out several days at home, where he saw the Yu Dao conflict through to its end and founded the air acolytes.
And now he was back. In Luceti. He knew who Ikki was again. One of the first things he did upon realizing what happened was scribbling a journal message for everyone at home - assuring them he was still around. It might be hard to tell he was gone if anyone was awake that early. After all, he didn't have many possessions, and his room was shared with Roku who was keeping a more irregular sleeping schedule during the draft. The only visible evidence would be the absence of the prayer beads which he had given to Ikki.
So Aang spent most of the morning helping Suki to adjust, hoping that her memories of her previous stay would be awakened. He wasn't really so familiar to people returning without memories. But eventually they parted ways so that Suki could be reunited with Sokka. Once he saw that only a night had passed during his absence, he had guessed that he might have been the only one to go home. The others might still be there. The same as he left them. So he headed to House 56 to check in with everyone next and give the physical proof of his presence. He came fully clothed in his air nomad robes, wielding a set of prayer beads that were notably missing a Fire Nation emblem.
Once all the bases are touched, Aang tries to go about his daily schedule as usual, probably being late for school and skipping out on the Welcome Center to instead explore the forest. Now that he remembers, he looks around carefully for any sign of Moro's presence.]
[Video]
[And this video message is recorded before dinner, when he stops back at the house between forest treks.]
Hey, everyone. It's me, Aang. This place is really weird sometimes. I used to think when people went home, they stayed home, at least for a long time. But sometimes people have been gone for just a few weeks, and me... I was just gone for one night. I doubt anyone noticed, but I'm still sorry if I worried anyone. And my friend Suki came back too. Really unpredictable, right?
Still, some of you might be pleased to know that at home, only a few days passed, but things are really turning out for the better. Things are even more at peace, and I feel more connected with my people than ever. I hope everyone's having a great autumn, while it lasts.

She doesn't know if she replies out of curiosity or because of that offer of friendship. But she turns on the little video, and offers the best smile she can. It's small but her eyes are bright. Curious.]
You went home?

Hello Katniss! Yeah, I got to spend a few days at home. And now I'm here again!

What? He wanted to explore a bit. But that's what happens when your sense of direction sucks. So he ended up having to spend a night in a tree.
It's not until Aang is nearby that Cross has finally woken up a bit.]
Hm?
[Looking down below he see's a bald headed kid, possibly around his age walking around. He wonders what this boy is doing out here and kind of curious as to if he's lost to. So how does he decide to greet the bald kid?
Come hanging upside down from the tree branch he was in front of Aang.]
Hey there, you lost too?
Action
Hello! I'm not lost. I was just looking around.

But.. why would they send you home for only a night..?

I don't know. A lot about this place doesn't make sense at all. Maybe they knew my friends would miss me?

It's... Yeah, it was a bit of a shock. Toph was the only one who noticed before I got back, but... I think things are okay now. We all had to talk things over.
It's good to see you again, Raine.

It's a good thing he decided to wander outside for a moment and spots Aang before breaking the news.]
Aang?
[Action]
It's him again. It's him. Roku, who was ready to give up his own great grandson. Who never even asked to see his family.
But years before all of that would happen. Aang still couldn't help but stare, as all these conflicting feelings arose within him, and he muttered in return.]
R... Roku.

Uh. Welcome back, Aang? Thanks for finding Suki.

Hey, Sokka. It's... good to be back? And no problem. She kinda found me, really.

So when Aang returns to House 56, he can expect one miffed blind earthbender to come storming up to him to punch him in the arm.]
You dunderhead!! [NOT LIKE SHE WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU OR ANYTHING...]

[That's the only thing he can exclaim, before he mutters an "Ow..." and rubs his arm.]
