Book 10: The Holiday Spirits [Video/Action] Dated to 12/21

[Video]

[Aang addresses the journals before heading out that day, upon recognizing the date.]

Hey! It's the solstice today, right? Has anyone checked to see if that door in the tunnel opened by itself yet? In my experience, those kinds of things tend to happen on this day!

But, other than that? I'm really glad that it's winter! What are your favorite things to do in the snow and for the winter? I want to have as much fun as I can with the snow today, so let me know!

[And Mordecai the elf chimes in with a "Snowmen are my favorite!"]

[Action]

[And so the fourteen year old monk spends a portion of the afternoon playing in the snow while following suggestions from his elf. Feel free to join him during light-hearted shenanigans. For most of them, he's even wearing a funny hoodie hat. And he'll also seek out Toph at some point to consult her on something. Or...

You can catch him while or after meditating. At a certain point of day, when the sun is in the right point in the sky (and his elf is taking a nap). Aang is practicing some type of deep, deep meditation. You might even think he's fallen asleep, with the goofy hoodie hat slumping off of his head. Until he opens his eyes, and...

glowing eyes. His elf is startled into awakeness and proceeds to hide.]

"This" day?

Yeah, on the solstice! Lots of cool things get unlocked on solstices. That's when I got to meet Avatar Roku, and the- some secret people I met once, they had a room where hidden things got revealed with the solstice's light!

[He wasn't sure if it was that or the date.]

Aa, but how would light like that get underground?

That's a good point. There aren't any holes or mirrors that get down there, unless they're hidden...

[For now, Beast has finally managed to leave the house without having the elf tag along - he thinks so anyway. But his reason for being out is still its doing; he's on his way to the item shop to find presents. He doesn't recognise Aang at first because of the hat and nearly walks into him while pondering too much.]

O-oh! Aang... s-sorry.

[Aang gets up with a smile.]

Hello, Beast! It's okay. How are you?

I... a... g-good. And, uh, y-you?

I'm great! [He does a little twirl into the air as he does this, picking up snow around him.] Isn't this snow beautiful?

[Luke had spent the better part of the day riding Hamal around, letting the enormous bantha get some exercise, while at the same time delivering wrapped presents to his friends. Aang he hadn't seen yet, but the sounds of laughter draw the Jedi and his mighty ~~slobbery~~ steed towards where the young monk is playing.

-thump- -thump- -thump

The bantha's footfalls make a deep impressions in the snow as Luke rides into view, wearing a santa hat with a big bag strapped to Hamal's saddle]

Good afternoon, Aang!

[Aang grins up at the Skywalker and his steed from a pile of snow.]

Good afternoon, Luke and Hamal! How are you?

Well enough! Out and about to enjoy the weather, I see.

How've you been lately? And how's the granddaughter?

I've been fine! It's been a nice December so far. And Ikki's fine! She's really getting into this whole Christmas thing!

Solstice..? [ madoka is not the brightest, okay, just average, so she hums for a few moments as she seemingly tries to think of what it means. ]

.. What's that, Aang-san? I feel like I've heard of it before..

The solstice is a really special day which is the shortest because of the way the sun's positioned to the sky! It's also when the line between the natural world and the Spirit World is at its weakest!

Oh, so it's one of those days in winter when it stays dark outside for really long! [ she nods to herself - that part's easy to understand. ] .. What's the Spirit World though? Is that.. um.. the afterlife?

In a way, but not exactly. Where I come from, the Spirit World is where all the spirits live who govern over our world. Certain people's spirits can end up there as their afterlife... but I don't know if all people do.

Ororo was just walking past when she spotted Aang. She had meditated enough times in the past to recognize what he was doing, so she paused some distance away, curious. It was strange; Aang was usually such an energetic child, seeing him so calm and deep into meditation threw her off a little...

And then his eyes open, and Ororo is greeted by glowing eyes.

Well, then. All the more reason to hang back a little and see what happens from here!

There was an odd serenity to Aang. No traces of fury or outrage. He stared forward for a moment and slowly started to rise into the air - with just bits of buckling, as if he were re-learning how to control his body. And as he rose to a stable position in the air, some of the snow in the ground beneath him started to swirl around lightly.

Genuinely curious but not wanting to disturb him, Ororo keeps her distance, observing the way he lifts off of the ground, monitoring the shift in the wind and the swirling of the elements around him. The glowing eyes are almost forgotten in the face of feeling the thrum of power around him.

[Suki catches up with the airbender when he's meditating, but no Avatar State yet. She doesn't say anything though because she doesn't want to scare him, so she just examines him for a moment, trying to figure out how deep into his meditation he is.]

[Pretty dang deep, sister. There's a steady breath every now and then to a certain rhythm while his mind is far beyond the surroundings. Navigating his mind, his soul, who knows where. Not seeking the cosmic energy but letting himself drift towards it aimlessly, using all of this focus and concentration to try to bypass any obstacles formed from clogged chakras. He looks oddly at peace, currently.]

[Suki smiles. Such a good little monk. She quickly leaves only to return with a blanket, which she wraps around his shoulder. Gotta keep the little guy warm! She should probably grab him something to eat too...]

[Aang frantically goes to turn off the microwave.]

Toph, that's not food!

[Aaand she swats his arm away from the microwave, promptly frowning.]

I know that, Twinkletoes! I'm just warming it up, I'm not gonna eat it!
