ᴏᴏ3 : ᴛᴇxᴛ | ᴀᴄᴛɪᴏɴ

Who: Zuko [

honorbends] and YOU.
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: On Ye Olde Ice Planet.
When: Now!

Why.

[ that is literally the only thing zuko texts, because he has stepped out onto the ice planet ~~Hoth~~ and is promptly regretting ever doing so. firebenders rise with the sun, and zuko is a morning person, and nothing is more claustrophobic than being on a ship with no natural light, or heat, or energy -- and being outside alone is rejuvenating for him, but --

there is so much snow.

so feel free to spot him wandering around looking furious in a scarf, stubbornly melting a small patch of snow, or perusing the markets for things to buy with money that he probably asked someone else for.

or you can hit him with snow and take advantage of the fact that he is, in fact, a firebender on what is apparently a recreation of the northern water tribe. with more salt.

this is the worst. ]

[He answers the text while inbetween his own explorations of the planet, or well- when he's in a warm enough spot to take off the second layer of gloves so he can type properly. Because you know, god forbid he'd ever have his hands bare]

Why what, Zuko?

[ OBVIOUSLY SNOW SUCKS ALLEN but zuko refrains from being snippy and instead answers his question

by not answering his question ]

Katara is going to be happy.

[ .... ]

...Are you talking in regards to the planet or did a message of yours not send?

[SURE YOU SURE DIDN'T ANSWER HIS QUESTION EITHER]

The planet, idiot.

She's a waterbender.

The planet is full of frozen water.

[ there's a slight pause before he sends another text. ]

It looks like the Northern Water Tribe.

[Remus doesn't have the same amount of pure hatred Zuko does for the snow, but that doesn't mean he's going to go tromping in it. In fact, he steams himself a tidy little path as he heads to the market, through the snow, enjoying himself considerably.

He's intrigued as he sees a flash of flame, and heads over to the source.]

All right?

[nnnhh...]

She's from the Southern Water Tribe. [GOD ZUKO]

But yes, I suppose her and Sokka will feel right at home here. That's not a bad thing.

I know that! I've been there.

[ GOD ALLEN though zuko was there for not very kind reasons it's fine tho ]

But this place looks more like the Northern Water Tribe.

[ ... ooo.

zuko watches remus plow his way through the snow, his brow furrowing in curiosity. with a slight roll of his wrist, the fire dissipates, and he slides his hands into the pockets of his coat. ]

Fine.

[ pause ]

How are you doing that?

If you say so.

[Not like he's ever been there. Just heard about it for years]

But you have a point. I guess you should be careful about making her mad this month.

Magic.

[Which sounds glib, but he shows off his wand in demonstration.]

It's a simple spell, really-- I generate steam and simply point it where I want it. In this case, to melt a path. Might I ask the same of you? I've never seen anyone handle raw fire like that before.

She starts it.

[ which is true like 50% of the time allen jeez ]

But she'd win.

[ zuko is a lot more experienced than the first time he and katara fought at the northern water tribe, but he's not stupid. ]

She doesn't start all your fights. I'm on the same ship as you two are.

[HE KNOWS WHAT'S WHAT]

I'd say so if she can drop an avalanche on you!

[ Ken's scarf, on the other hand, is wrapped around something he's carrying. He's hoping to find new parts for Spot the Slightly Defective Space Roomba, and even though he knows Spot is a robot, letting the robot just go outside like this didn't feel right.

He stops, however, when he notices that this familiar-looking person is...actually making some of the snow melt. ] That's a convenient ability.

[ Is this how to start a conversation? Or express interest? He'll give it a try!! ]

[He doesn't have to ask why what, he knows. ]

Because the universe is always conspiring against you. Poor, poor fire bender. Woe.

Don't give her ideas.

I'm not going to be blamed for melting these houses if she does.

[ ... ah, right. that kid who was removing walls. what was his name again? hmm.

zuko shrugs slightly ]

In this place, it is -- what are you carrying?

[ moreover, why are you not actually using that scarf, small child. ]

[ ... magic. ]

I'm a firebender.

[ and zuko suspends a ball of fire between his hands after removing said hands from his coat again, warming his fingers nicely. ]

I can control and manipulate fire and heat.

[ so fuck you atroma for putting him on hoth ]

There could have been a beach.

[ that has water AND sand AND heat it's the best of all worlds sokka ok ]

[ poor, poor, miserable firebender. she's just going to call out when she spots him -- ]

Head's up!

[ and that's a snowball, flying toward impact right at the back of his head. ]

[ on most days, zuko has great reflexes. but he has been lazy for the past two weeks and he's on a giant ice planet and while he immediately whips around to duck the snowball -- which he does -- he sort of slips on the ice and after one panicked windmill of his arms to catch his balance the great esteemed future leader of the free world, firelord zuko,

winds up directly in a snow bank.

there's a moment or two of stunned silence before a muffled groan emerges from the snow.

now he's annoyed and cold. ]

[As a rule, Beverly doesn't hate snow. In fact, she rather likes it... living most of her life in a climate controlled environment has made her appreciate real weather. However... today, Zuko's mood is suiting her just fine.]

It couldn't have been a beach, could it?

[ have the world's largest sigh, and zuko turns to face beverly, tugging aside his scarf ]

I miss the beach.

[ and the ocean, and sunshine, and warm temperatures. ugh. ]

Did you do something.

I didn't freeze the entire planet.

[Ohhhh, she's totally laughing over at her end.]

I'm preeeetty sure it's supposed to be like that.

What? You don't like it?
