...would anyone who's been kidnapped by the Malnosso before agree to meet with me somewhere and talk about it? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

[He's spoken his thoughts, and won't press any more. And honestly, he doesn't think she'll have any luck-- but he won't say so]

Well, she's lucky to have such a family.

Whatever you decide to do, I hope you do it wisely.

[The more she finds out, the more she'll realize she just can't 'get' them to come. But at least she'll have tried.]

Thanks, Ginko.

...[A pause, and then quietly.] And I'm sorry about your eye. I know I didn't say as much last time, but - I'm glad you're better.

[he looks a little surprised, and then smiles]

That's kind of you.

I was lucky to have people to take care of me.

[And she feels that flush of guilt that she hadn't helped at all.]

...I'll see you later, then. Take care of yourself, Ginko.

[How he'd protest if he knew that...]

Maah-- don't worry about me. [= I'm a lot more worried about you, kid.]

[These helpers. They just don't like to be helped.]

Just don't get hit by any lightning. I don't have any Spirit Water here!

[And that's more than she meant to say, but she was trying to joke and so -- there it is.]

I'm pretty hard to kill.

[a soft smile--she would be a healer, wouldn't she?-- he can't help adding]

You must have gotten along with Nala in no time at all.

Maybe one day you can tell me about that Spirit Water-- and I can finish telling you about the mushi that eat lighting. [When you're feeling better, and more like hearing stories again.]

Nala? [Actually, she hasn't tried to contact the healing spirit yet. Her focus was directly to contact the water spirit. And things havebeen so busy, she hasn't had a chance to give that the attention it deserves.]

I'd like to hear that story sometime. [Notice, if you will, that she is still not volunteering her own story.] Sokka and I are going to go out in the forest for a few days. We'll be back soon.

The filial healing spirit-- get her to teach you and you can heal burns, gashes, even broken bones. But maybe you can do something like that already?

[He'll note the silence on that story and circumvent it...lighting. Something very bad about lighting.]

Maybe while you're in the forest you can listen for her, if you get a quiet moment. She's easy to hear.
