How many people are here that you know of from your world? How long did it take them to get here? If you don't know of anyone from your world -- have you always been the only one here? What about family - does anyone have any family here?

Thanks!

Nope.

I'm from the Southern Water Tribe, but that doesn't mean anything here.

Ah, that explains it-- a tribal person, then? At least you're likely able to read, given the use of these books.

Commendable, for one of your kind. You should take some pride in that; there's probably little else available to you.

You're not very good at those, are you?

If you'd rather receive none at all, I'll gladly take it back.

Or maybe you should practice not sounding like a jerk.

-- There's absolutely nothing wrong with the way I'm speaking!

This is a civilized place, you know! You're the one in need of practice here, not me-- your disrespect and lack of gratitude make that clear.

Why do I even bother... !

... look, sorry, there's no reason to fight. I think we just started on the wrong foot, here.

[dictated] whoops this is late |||orz

[songofthefoolish]

Clearly.

Feel free to apologize at any time.

[ Katara snorts softly, amused. ]

I'll get around to it.

[songofthefoolish]

Very well.

I'll even be kind enough to wait for it, so don't delay for too long! The graciousness of a Le Bel may be unparalleled, but it still has its limits.

I'll let you know the moment I think of an apology good enough.
