Who: Katara & everyone!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: On the Blue Fish, if anyone is so inclined
When: now!

[ katara flashes a brief smile at the communicator, expression genuinely content, but it's clear that she's distracted by something. ]

Have you ever run into someone from your world that you've never met before? In places like here -- like Drift Fleet or Paradisa or Adstringendum or anywhere else. I guess, specifically, I mean... has anyone else ever met someone from their own future?

[ because it's something she's been dwelling on a lot, recently. ]

Why are you asking?

[ zuko is literally texting katara one room over he's just lazy af ]

Mako, Jinora, Asami...

[ etc etc etc ]

I've met Asami. And Mako, I think.

[ they sound familiar, anyway. maybe. ]

But I meant why are you asking right now.

Why not now?

[ katara: pointlessly antagonistic with zuko for literally no reason. she sighs and sends a second message. ]

I've been remembering more about them. Just wondering if I'll see them again, I guess.

[ katara you make everything difficult for no reason he's beginning to think you're the issue in all areas of conflict in this friendship okay ]

That's how this universe works, right?

And if they're from the future, you'll see them again when you go home, one day.

[ it's probably true, zuko.

especially when she brings up -- ]

I won't see Jet again, will I.

[ ugh ]

At home?

No.

[ he's not going to lie. :c ]

Anywhere.

[ she's not really heartbroken over it. honestly, most of adstring feels like a really, really strange dream a majority of the time. ]

Sorry. It's just weird to think about.

Stranger things have happened. You never know.

[ a lot of strange things, really ]

Like me being with him in the first place? Or all of us ending up on spaceships? Yeah, I guess.

And be nice to Allen.

Allen can handle himself.

You're the one who dated Jet, not me. I can't explain your logic.

[ zuko thought it was fucking weird too ]

He was there for me when I needed him. That's all that matters.

[ TBH she's really not able to defend jet that much, but her own decisions?? she will always stubbornly insist those are right. ]

[ god katara you need better criteria in boyfriends but he won't say that out loud ]

I guess.

[ options are slim in the arctic okay she can't afford to be picky ]

At least he was friendlier than Mai...

[ HEY ]

Mai is friendly.

And not insane.

[ she just

doesn't show it around anybody else but him

and she's also moderately terrifying but whatever ]

Sometimes I'm not sure we're talking about the same person.

You only met her when she was trying to kill you.

[ for the most part anyway.

mai was like his only friend okay :( ]

She hated the way things were just as much as I did, and she wanted them to change. She just didn't know how to make that decision until she saw that Azula wasn't worth fighting for anymore.

[ 'I could say a lot of the same kinds of things about Jet,' she wants to say, but doesn't. it would probably just incite another dumb argument. ]

I'm just glad we're not fighting anymore.

[ please. the fight is just beginning. just because the war is over doesn't mean there will automatically be peace. the fire nation is in absolute shambles, and the people are probably piss scared of the avatar. ozai was insane, but he was safe.

but saying all of that just sounds ridiculously insecure and self-serving, because that's really all of zuko's problems, and probably not what katara is talking about anyway, so there's a short length of time before he responds back. ]

Me too.

[ she's not dense enough to think that the battles are over - that things are going to be smooth sailing from here on out. but things definitely are... better.

less hopeless than before, maybe. ]

So... how are you doing, anyway? Now that you've had some time to adjust to space.

I hate it.

[ he misses his friends, deeply, and he misses adstringendum, and he misses fresh air and sunlight and not being on a goddamn space ship. ]

But it could be worse.

Some of the planets we visit are nice. I hope we get to do that again soon.

I miss sunlight.

[ it's so

awful :( ]

You would think with all of this technology they would have a fake sun or something.

[ poor zuko... :( ]

Sure, maybe, but... where would they even put it?
