[For no very specific reason at all, Katara is happy this late afternoon. The air is getting colder, and the very fact that it's nipping at her face is enough to make her smile. Add to that the glorious storm of yesterday, that it is still drizzling...

It's started drizzling as she runs her errands in town, and she puts a hand up to bend an 'umbrella' above her head as she walks along. She forgets herself, though, as she comes to some large puddles in the road, and dropping her hand, stares at them for half a beat.

Well, she's already wet.

So she jumps in. Not bending at all, simply splashing about in the puddles along her way.

Feel free to catch her in this rare display of immaturity and glee - or even join her! Hopefully she won't catch a cold.

Much later, as she prepares dinner for her house, she makes a voice post.]

Anyone else looking forward to the change in the weather?

[OOC: I know notifs are so so down. Please ping me on AIM if it's been a while and I haven't tagged!]

[ Usopp must be doing his job properly, then. ]

A few. I mean, most people stayed inside unless they were going out to find someone, but some New Feathers turned up right in the middle of everything.

Nobody froze to death, though, so it wasn't so bad.

New Feathers were dropped in the middle of a blizzard! [Indigent girl from the poles is INDIGENT.]

What were the Malnosso thinking?! Were they trying to kill them?? That's terrible!

[ Oh SNAP. ]

I know! If you're gonna throw that much snow at everyone, you should at least not throw people into it.

[Katara glares at the world, hating on the Malnosso for a solid thirty seconds.]

[And then she sighs.] Well, at least this time Aang and I are here. Between the two of us, if he bends the air and I bend the snow... it should make rescuing them easier, if it comes to that.

Did he turn up here? [ ~~Assuming he'd have heard the basics of Who Is Aang~~

...more importantly. ] You can bend snow?

[~~Probably!~~ Katara's voice becomes even more full of underlying 'yey.'] Yeah, he came while you guys were camping! I keep wanting to bring him by to introduce him to you, so he can see that you're not all actually trying to kill me.

[Something about Katara and pirates >>]

But yeah, of course I can bend snow. It's just another form of water, after all. That's what all the houses are made of in the North Pole.

[ The power of ~yey~ ] What would we try to kill you for? You haven't tried killing us.

[ Jeez Katara, you and your pirate shenanigans. ] So you must be really good at making snowmen!

Eh-heh-heh... let's just say my encounters with pirates in my world weren't exactly friendly?

[Loooooong story. You wouldn't be interested. Really.]

I've got a lot of practice, sure! But I haven't been home since I really started to learn waterbending. I just know how to make them with my hands, though I'm sure bending them couldn't be too hard to figure out.

Aaaa, why can't pirates be as great in other worlds as they are in ours...? [ It ain't fair ;A; ]

It would be awesome if you could! We could make some really great puppets that way.

[Yeeeeah, she's just going to let that softer part slide. >>]

Puppets? With snow? What do you mean?

You know, puppets! Like- making people out of snow and moving them around! [ Oh god, if you could see him, you'd see excited gesturing. It's been a great week for creativity. ]

...you think so, huh?

[She... may be having horrible flashbacks to Hama right now. And as such, sounds more dubious than excited.] I guess I could try - I think it would be really hard to keep the snow in shape and move it around, though.

[Note: Really hard does not mean that she can't do it, or that it will even look hard when she does.]

[ People and their natural skills DX ] I guess it would be. If you can't do it, regular snow-people are still really fun.

Well, we can see what we can do.

[She may already be planning things...]

[ Day = made. ]

Great!
