03 | [Voice/Action for people on The Sun]

Uh. Snow usually isn't suppose to be green, is it? I mean, I really don't think so, but...is this suppose to mean something? [A pause] If I didn't know better I'd swear Ace had something to do with this.

[Despite all the confusion from Asami, instead of staying in her room, she decides to walk around the ship. Anyone on The Sun will more than likely get a fist full of green snow thrown at them if they're walking around.

Why? Just because.

Someone has a little too much free time on their hands at the moment]

Great! Then I'll get back to you as soon as possible on it.

For a second I thought you were going to say a pirate.

[Not that she cared either way, because she actually laughs a little when she says that]

Okay. Cool!

[YEP trying out the turtle vernacular. That's what happens when his crew is composed of teenage mutant ninja turtles.]

Well, uh, we do the sailing thing, so it's sort of. Related?

[Never mind the fact some Vikings pillage and plunder, too.]

[Oh Hiccup. Some day he'll make a great ninja turtle]

They sound a bit similar to the Southern Water Tribe Warriors back in my world, actually. They sailed a lot too.

[Not that they pillaged and plundered as a principle or anything like that. Yeah, they don't really have Vikings back in her home]

[All he needs is a shell and he's good to go!]

Southern Water Tribe?

[Well, sounds like someone's interest is perked. It's okay, sailing is the bond]

[And some nunchakus]

Yeah. They're a tribe set in the South Pole.

[She pauses, realizing that won't explain much to someone not from her world]

They don't have dragons, but I think it fits pretty well into everything else you said.

I'm guessing they live in cooler climates, too? Because if they do, then yeah, that's a really uncanny coincidence.

All the time. The South Pole always has snow. [In fact, she's pretty sure the snow and ice has never melted there once] There's also the North.

[He's a little astonished by this.]

Huh. That sounds worse than home.

[That does surprise her a little]

Really? I never thought it was too bad.

Normally, cold means wind, rain, sleet, hail, andsnow. Doesn't help when the climate and weather act like that year-round.

[He may be exaggerating, teens and all]

I think it depends on the people. I could do without the snow all the time, but they have a lot waterbenders so the climate seems to be convenient for them.

[oh yeah, she should clarify one part]

Not that I live there.

Waterbenders? Wait, where do you live?

–Sorry for all of the questions.

Don't worry about it, I'm happy to answer any questions.

Waterbenders...they bend the water. [A pauses] And I live in Republic City.

Bend? Is that like, controlling water? How does that even work?

Republic City sounds huge.

That's the gist of it. It's a little complicating, but it basically has to do with the chi in your body.

It is. It's one of the bigger cities out there.

[Except for Ba Sing Se]

Hmm. You're right about it being complicated, but it's really interesting.

How many people live there with you? What's it like?

I think so. I'm not a bender, so I'd be lying if I said it didn't fascinate me.

Well over 1,000 for sure. As for what it's like...I'd say just like any other city? We have cars and businesses just like any other place, but I think the technology is more advanced than here.

Yeah, I'm with you on that one.

A thousand? Yikes. [That's hard to picture. A good number of Vikings wouldn't even amount to a city population.] Wait, so you're saying everything is really advanced? How advanced can you get?

For the most part. [She thinks this over, then decides to ask:] Do you know what are car is? Or a phone?

Uuh no, I don't.

Well a phone...it's a way to communicate with people through long distances. Kind of like the journals we have now, except it's all done through telephone wires.

[Not that the phone is the best example of advance technology, since the journals work just as well and are even portable]

A car is just a vehicle with wheels and it's powered by an engine, you can get pretty fast on them. [A pause] We also have planes, they're used for air flight.

I can see how wires make it a little more practical than a magical journal.

[He just doesn't know how bad it can get if wires get cut or phones lines are dropped.]

So...a car is basically an advanced version of a cart? With no animals to pull it. That's something. [He pauses at the thought of a plane.] You mean people fly in your world, too? This is the first time I've ever heard anyone say that.

It really depends on how you look at it, I think.

[That serves as a problem, especially if a big part of the city experiences a power outage]

That's pretty much the basis of it, yeah. I haven't seen an animal pull a cart in a long time. [A lot of people still don't have planes it seems] They work similar to cars in some ways, in sense that they both run on engines.

[He makes a thoughtful hum, nodding on his end. Unless they were both introduced to mobile cellular devices...]

And both the cars and planes are sat on?

[Yeah, a mobile device is new to her as well]

They both have seats, but you can usually seat four people in a regular car. Planes usually seat just one.
