Korra? Hi. This is Wan. I'm supposed to just talk and you'll um... 'call' me back, right? Okay. Uh... I wanted to let you know that you don't have to pretend I'm not the Avatar anymore. I've had time to think about it and it's been hard for me to pretend around others that know what the Avatar is. I don't think I can. I can't really deny that part of me. It's not right. Even if I'm not always proud of what I've done, pretending otherwise feels... wrong.

So thank you, for agreeing to. I appreciate that.

Okay, so I'm done. How do I make this st-

[He figured it out.]

[kyasdaughter]

Hey! [ Katara's tone is offended, but it's all playful offense. She's trying to lighten the conversation up somehow. ] He's a lot more than just a kid, you know.

audio;

[braavado]

Hey! You figured out how to leave the messages. [SO PROUD OF YOU.]

And…thanks. For letting me know about this. You know, if there’s any of us who should be proud to be the Avatar, it’s you. You are the first one.

audio;

[braavado]

[Good thing she was warned about this, or all Ty Lee would be getting is a bunch of question marks.]

Ye—eah. You mean Wan, right?

[braavado]

I know. [Though she knows Katara’s teasing a little, Korra can’t help but answer seriously.]

I’ve actually seen him in some visions before, but he was always a lot older. And a lot more serious. [She thinks back on that conversation she’d had with Toph before.] I guess I just forgot he was a kid once, too.

audio;

[raavashing]

[SHE CALLED HIM BACK! HOW EXCITING! HIS MESSAGE ACTUALLY GOT TO HER!

He held his excitement in check long enough for her to speak and let the words actually settle in his brain. His voice was calm as he spoke into the phone and he was glad she couldn't see his face. It wasn't that he wasn't proud to be the Bridge, to be trusted with that self-imposed position by the Spirits... it was that he wasn't proud of why it happened. And that was tied so closely to his role that he couldn't easily separate the two in his mind.]

Thank you. I am proud of what I've accomplished. But I'm more proud of what I will accomplish. What I'll become in the lives after mine. Aang. And you. I've known you both a week and already you've both made me feel so much better about my choices. About whatever it is I go on to do.

[He paused, feeling self-conscious because it was basically him standing there complimenting himself. Sort of.]

Ah, there's going to be a party tonight in blocks 35 and 36. You should come. I'll be making the tea.

[kyasdaughter]

That's... still so weird to think about. I hope he kept his sense of humor, at least. [ And she's being serious about that. Aang has gone through so much, and it seems like he's got a lot more in store. That's important. But then, Katara looks a little sheepishly proud. ] I can't tell you how awesome it is that you're from home, though. The Southern Water Tribe, I mean.

audio;

[braavado]

I...feel the same way about you and Aang. Before you guys got here, I felt so lost and confused, but after...I didn't feel as bad about the things that happened back home.

[And now she's perking up.]

Oh yeah, I heard Hinata and Morgan talking about it. I'm definitely gonna be there. Somebody's gotta make sure my friends aren't sitting around being mopey, right?

audio;

[raavashing]

[There was a light laugh.]

Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I won't be. I haven't been to a party since I left the Spirit Oasis. I'm really curious how different it will be.

audio; 5/30 THERE WILL BE SDR2 SPOILERS IN HERE Y'ALL.

[monarchical]

[ She's been debating doing this for a while now, but...Sonia's clearly decided to go through with it, even if Korra won't know the reason for the determination in her voice when she calls. ]

Korra? Do you have time to meet up today? At your block or mine, I do not have a preference. I wanted to talk to you about something.

[foreveraclone]

[he sighs.] Yeah, thanks. I just- the last thing I want anyone doing is fighting my battles. I don't want to see anyone try to take this into their own hands and end up trading their soul for mine. No way am I going to let that stand.

[braavado]

Uh...huh. Is this one of those Southern Tribe versus Northern Tribe things?

[If only Korra knew how bad that rivalry would get in the future...]

audio;

[braavado]

Sure, I've got time. I can show you something I found in the library while you're here, too.

When did you want to meet up?

audio;

[braavado]

It sounds like they saved up a lot of food to share with everybody. Parties can be pretty fun.

[And then she'll grumble a little.]

As long as there aren't any reporters.

audio;

[raavashing]

...what's a reporter?

[You should probably warn Clark you don't want him there.]

audio;

[monarchical]

Oh? Um, as to that - I am available all day...so I could be over within ten minutes if that's all right?

[ She's...not sure how long this will take, actually. :|a ]

[braavado]

You think that's what he wants to do--trade his soul for yours?

[Yikes, Kal.]

But that doesn't solve the problem at all. It just means we'll try to get his soul back instead of yours.

[foreveraclone]

He might. [he bites his lower lip in slight worry.] And then it'll turn into a giant circle of attempting to get everyone's soul back. It doesn't help that we're on a tight time schedule either.

audio;

[braavado]

Someone who writes about the news, whatever's happening in one place. Republic City has a lot of them.

They don't always stick to the truth, though. Some of them just like kicking up a fuss to make the story more interesting.

audio;

[raavashing]

Then they shouldn't be called reporters. They should be called storytellers.

audio;

[braavado]

Fine with me. The door's open, so you can just come in.

[Korra will be in the living room, poking at something on the table whenever she gets here.]

action;

[monarchical]

[ And Sonia promptly ends the call to make her way over there...

only to be momentarily derailed by whatever Korra is poking at ]

What is that?

[kyasdaughter]

Huh? [ She seems baffled for a moment, before shaking her head quickly. ] No, not at all. It's just - there isn't really much of us left right now. I'm the only bender in the Southern Water Tribe. So to think that we might actually rebuild so much someday... it's a nice one. That's all.

audio;

[braavado]

People believe them, that's the problem.

[This is one of the things she's never been able to understand.]

It's also really common.

[raavashing]

So...

[Wan gave that some thought before slowly replying.]

They use the trust people have in them to tell the truth, to spread lies instead? That's not right. Can't you stop them?
