[Zelos is bored out of his mind. Winter sucks, being stuck inside all the time sucks and aside from stealing some fireworks the festival isn't one of his interest (he wasn't one to honor elders after all). ]

[He's taken to lounging in the lobby, boredly flipping through the book when he's really watching every person who watch past. Mostly the girls but seeing if he can read the guys is fun too. He was being quiet too, until he decided to take a drink of some earth beverage called "coca-cola" that was in the fridge. ]

[He then promptly sneezes very loudly and sits up, spilling some and quickly putting the drink down like it's offended his ancestors]

Ugh!

Is this drink supposed to be fizzy?!

[Well that destroyed his incognito coolness]

[Katara is quiet for a moment, digesting this, before she laughs slightly and rolls her eyes skyward.]

Oh, poor Zelos. It's not enough to be handsome and charming and funny -- no, without that dumb title, girls are just too hard to pick up.

[She elbows him in the ribs.]

I hate boys.

[wilder]

[he laughs and says a small "ow"]

Hey I didn't say it was impossible! I'm still a very desirable guy! Just you know, I have to work more at it! I'm sure it's the same with that Aang guy!

[waterbends]

Yeah. Aang had girls practically falling all over him when they found out he was the avatar.

[DO YOU SEE THIS EXPRESSION, ZELOS. DO YOU. >|]

[wilder]

Heh heh, am I detecting jealousy, Ice Princess~? ♪

[waterbends]

[lkajsdasdf she elbows him again]

I'm not jealous!

[wilder]

Ow!

Okay-! Okay-! If you say so!

[waterbends]

[She huffs again. This was clearly a sore subject.]

Good. Thank you.

[wilder]

Sure, sure.

But it's nice to know you find me handsome, funny and charming~ ♥

[Even if he can't tease about Aang, he can still tease]

[waterbends]

Yep!

[A pause. She looks a little mischievous.]

Just like my dad!

[wilder]

[!!!!!]

Ice Princess!! I'm not that old!

[waterbends]

What? You have to be close to it!

[wilder]

I'm only 22! To have a kid your age, I would've had to been 7! I'm much too young!

[waterbends]

Girls usually get married at sixteen. Maybe you just got started early!

[wilder]

But seven?!

I started early, but not that early!

[waterbends]

[She's still laughing.]

Thank you. For sharing with me, I mean.

[wilder]

Huh? [STILL ON THE AGE THING] You mean sharing that I was a virgin at seven?

[waterbends]

About your family, dummy.

[wilder]

Oh, that.

[a shrug. playing it cool]

Yeah, well- Lloyd kinda...told me I shouldn't lie about it, so it's..no big. You just asked the right questions.

[waterbends]

Still. Asking the right questions doesn't mean you have to answer. I'm just glad you trust me enough to open up.

[Not that's necessarily much trust at all, but it's at least a little. She stops, crouching down to pat some snow into a mound.]

[wilder]

[Trust...heh, sure >> ]

Yeah...whatever. It's no big. [Shrugging it off!!]
