[Action, Accidental Voice] .003

[After having to push herself to heal and volunteering to help build the barrier with her bending, Katara is tired of not knowing for sure just how strong her bending is in this place. So sometime after the sun has gone down and the moon has risen high, she is going to quietly leave the Avatar house and travel to one of the closer lakes. She's not being overly sneaky about it, just quiet enough to be 'considerate,' if one of her housemates catches her in the act.

She'll be bringing her journal with her in case someone needs her or she needs to get a hold of someone quickly. She's still not exactly sure how this journal system works, so the chances are good that it will open on its own, and if it does all that will be heard is the sound of water moving and falling ice.

While she's there, she'll also be trying to contact the water spirit that she read about in the guide.

Pausing for a second, she stares at the half-moon] I wonder...

[Shaking herself, Katara resumes her forms.]

[A sly grin.] Well, Toph is anything but unreasonable. [Oh, Sokka totally picks up on that hypocrite vibe, Katara. It's your favorite tune sometimes.]

We will be. [Unfortunately he doesn't sound at all convinced about that. His conversation with the woman looking for recruits has left him unsettled. Of all the things in Luceti, it's one thing he hasn't told anyone about yet. As far he's concerned, he'll keep it that way.]

[Toph doesn't bother with knocking on the door, because if anyone's changing she can't see them anyway. She's just like that. Not that it matters, because she's actually stumbling into the LIVING ROOM, apparently. Yes.] Wuh? Why are you talking and making noise so late? Or early. Whatever this is.

[Just when she'd started feeling like she could fall asleep then and there.]

Hey, Toph. [Katara's voice is bone weary, with a hint of resignation. She didn't have any intention of keeping this from Toph -- maybe not even Zuko, although she'll hate to admit that she ran -- but at the moment? She's wet and exhausted and had been hoping to put off more confrontation until morning.]

Talking? Us? Oh... You know, it's just Water Tribe sibling stuff. But I think we pretty much wrapped things up. [As it is, he's perfectly willing to let Katara slip off to bed. Or perhaps take a nice warm soak, since that would probably be better for her.]

[she can't read heartbeats on wood, but she can hear Katara's weariness and Sokka's tone. She doesn't know anything, but she suspects it's more than just sibling stuff.] You keeping things from me? [I mean, lying about something important to a friend? Where's the trust?]

[Sigh. Katara is so tired.]

No, Toph. [She gives Sokka an 'it's OK' look. Toph's up now, gotta deal with it.] I'm just not sure how much longer I can stay awake. The most important things are that everyone's fine and Aku is a big jerk.

Can we talk more about it in the morning?

[Sokka just nods. He's perfectly willing to go back to bed if the topic is being dropped.]
