[jetset]

[ so, jet is out at the duck pond with dro. not that weird, right?

well, except for what he's doing, at the moment.

there's a life-sized mannequin of a person in a fire nation uniform floating out in the pond. upon closer inspection, one will see that it is the very image and likeness of a certain stupid scarface prince. jet is very determinedly trying to sink it. he has tied rocks to it, and he is also dropping heavy stones onto it, but. it keeps resurfacing. what's more, every time a stone hits it, a certain voice floats out of the chest area, saying things like:

"MY FATHER TAUGHT ME A PERMANENT LESSON! ON MY FACE!"

and

"Thith is therious guyth!"

looks like jet got his present from the castle.

so, you're welcome to hear those splashing sounds as jet dictates angrily: ]

The journals being wiped clean is one thing, but finding this thing in my closet? What the hell is going on?

[ ooc; things that plurk made me do™ ]

Comments

[wolfuncaged]

[So much staring]

...Is...there a person in that contraption?

[Dude are you trying to DROWN someone?]

[jetset]

I. Wish.

[ plonk. splash! ]

"Thith is therious guyth!"

Oh, shut up.

[wolfuncaged]

[His hand starts to move towards his sword, before he pauses. So unsure]

...What is it? Is it magic?

[jetset]

Whatever it is, it's not normal, because if it was, it'd sink. [ he glances as fenris touches his sword. ] And it you're thinking of stabbing it, don't bother; mine didn't work on it.

[ thoughtful pause. ]

Unless your sword is magic.

[wolfuncaged]

[Actually it kinda is...]

No. It is not. Why are you trying to... kill it?

[jetset]

Too bad.

[ he contemplates zuko's face anew. ]

Sink it, actually. And I'm trying to get rid of it because it's the last thing I want to have around me, and the real version is already around here somewhere, polluting the place.

[wolfuncaged]

...That monstrosity is based off a real person? [Kind of horrified by that]

[jetset]

Yep. At this point I'm having trouble deciding which one is worse; this or the guy himself.

[wolfuncaged]

[Squinting at it now]

Is he a resident?

[jetset]

Yeah. [ frowny face. ] So you don't know him, right? His friends keep showing up.

[wolfuncaged]

You will find I have very few friends. I have spoken with him, from time to time, that is all.

[jetset]

Spoken with him? Well, then you probably see why I'm trying to sink this thing to the bottom of the pond.

[wolfuncaged]

He is a little grating...

[jetset]

And a liar, and an infiltrator, and a firebender. [ sorry katara, but just thinking about zuko sets him ten steps back. ]

[wolfuncaged]

Yes, a mage by another name. [Fenris doesn't sound impressed about that AT ALL]

[jetset]

Mage? [ a curious look. ] As far as I know, all he can do is bend fire.

[wolfuncaged]

They all have to start somewhere. He is young.

[jetset]

[ he shrugs ]

Well, I wouldn't put it past him. I guess the mages are the source of trouble in your world, then.

[wolfuncaged]

They are a great source of trouble. My world is on the brink of war because of them.
