[Here she is, apparently having escaped the whole Halloween Thing. She's in the woods this time, at the stream, trying to do a few simple moves--and not doing particularly well. Even her good ole Water Whip is limp. It twists, writhes, and splashes back into the stream.

Katara stares at the water for a moment, then lets out a furious yell and thrusts down and out; the stream crackles and a section of it freezes over in and instant. She sits down, tucks her knees against her chest and rests her head on them, watching the flow of the water slowly melt her ice away again.]

...Katara? What happened?

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Turns her face away, hugging her knees a bit closer.] ...it's nothing.

[got-the-stones.livejournal.com]

I know you're lying.

[sifud.livejournal.com]

Congratulations! You're a genius!

[grand-gaia.livejournal.com]

...Are you alright?

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Not looking at him. In a voice that doesn't invite conversation:] I'm fine.

[grand-gaia.livejournal.com]

[:(]

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[...glances at him after a moment of waiting for him to leave.] What?

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

[Ryuuta loves watching stuff like this, yes he does.] Nee nee, do it again!

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[YOU ARE INTRUDING ON HER EMO TIME--...you...are....a....spirit thing?]

Wh...?!

[kotaekiitenai.livejournal.com]

Heeeeh, neechan's face looks really weird!

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[r...right]

Uh. Are you. A spirit, or something?

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

[Has been watching] Something is bothering you.

[sifud.livejournal.com]

I'm fine.

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

[It doesn't take a psychic to know you're lying Katara] No you are not.

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[RRRG.] Okay, fine, I'm not! Do you want a prize for figuring it out? You and Toph should form a 'Staters of the Obvious' club.

[... This is his fault, isn't it? Zuko pauses behind a tree several yards away, curiosity mingling with guilt. He thinks he's at a safe distance.]

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Everything is your fault, Zuko. :| She's too busy brooding--for the moment--to notice.]

[firedprince.livejournal.com]

[Zuko finally steps out.]

... Hey.

[Still at a bit of a distance.]

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[softly, from a polite distance] Are you all right?

....I can't remember if they've met. I REALLY NEED TO DO A CR UPDATE.

[sifud.livejournal.com]

[Presses her face against her knees.] Why does everyone keep asking me that? Of course not!

XD THEY HAVEN'T, IT'S OKAY he just went "WATER BENDING OOOH"

[miseardae.livejournal.com]

[slight, sheepish smile] It is a rather stupid question. I apologise.

[guywaboomerang.livejournal.com]

...Katara?

What's going on? What happened?

[sifud.livejournal.com]

It's nothing. I'm fine.

[guywaboomerang.livejournal.com]

I've seen you "fine" before, and it's usually only when something seriously bad happens. What is it?
