[ Action ] .063

Part the first:
[Katara fell into the shower after a long day of confusion. All the confused introductions in the morning had left her with little time before she had to take care of Ikki. She couldn’t cook, sure, but she could make sandwiches. And there was something that felt more natural about showering in the evening as well - it felt wonderful, actually.

She was just bringing her arms down from lathering her hair when something extraordinary happened - the water froze around her, encasing her in ice. Katara let out a startled shriek.

She was trapped! And naked! And cold! And where had the ice come from??]


Part the second (and every single other day):

[After her little adventure in the shower, Katara had discovered, much to her wonder and delight, that she could make water move when she moved her hands. She still hadn’t figured out how she’d turned it to ice that first time, but right now she was more interested in the beautiful fluidity of it than anything else.

Whenever she has a moment of free time, you can find her practicing with it, making it move over her arms or hover just above her hand or - wow, she can even fling it at things! This is so cool.

She decided that she was a water dancer, and it was a wonderful, wonderful thing. In the evenings, after helping clear up from dinner and making sure Ikki was tucked in, she wound up a small box that played music (Did you know that there are devices that make music?) she found in the shop with all the things. She took it outside, lifted the lid and practiced dancing to the music.

Feel free to run into her anywhere! Maybe as she runs errands about town or even that moment on the path by the river when she first discovers she can take water and make it smaller, shattering into hundreds of little raindrops that catch the sunlight, and laughs with delight.]

[Action] COOL, COOL

Troublesome... [He wipes the water off his face, muttering under his breath, but continues with a sigh. She is a woman, after all.] It's fine.

...That's weird. Really weird. Uh.

"Well...what should I do?" She had her weird earth power, but she isn't sure how helpful that would be right now.

Oh, nooooope. I forgot, 'cause he was a knight, so we talked about Petunia instead!

[ Her hair is sort of curling and in the way, since she hasn't the slightest idea how she normally wears it. It did start out braided this morning, but it's decidedly...not, now. The dangers of being seven and active. ]
markofthewise: (Good grief)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2012-10-05 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
... you're married to your mother?

[That didn't make any sense at all.]
endgames: (sweatdrop)

[personal profile] endgames 2012-10-05 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
Oi, I said it was fine. You didn't have to... [...wow. Uh. Not touching that one.]

You okay?

[Those are a bunch of questions. He hasn't yet looked at this girl's card, opting to answer her first.]

I... don't really know most of those things. Because, you know... not remembering. And... we can be in the same house without being family, can't we? We could just be... friends who live together, or work together, or maybe I just stopped by for the night?

Yep! Nara Shikamaru. Well, we looked for clues but didn't find anything - but he said he's in service to a King and maybe that was Petunia's dad! [ read: Ikki said the last part and Shikamaru sort of rolled with it.

She hums and helps what is left of the braid to untangle, once Katara removes the hair tie. ]

[She'd be a real pretty friend or family, at least. He's not sure whether to take the name thing as a compliment.]

I guess it is a silly name, but it's the only one I got. Still... thanks! I'd really appreciate your help, cuz I could use some answers. But let me check your card first. [He holds it up and begins to read.] Katara. [His lips moved as if they had rehearsed that name a thousand times over.] Now that's a good name. [Nice and simple. He could use a name like that... maybe even a shorter one.]
endgames: (Eheh)

[personal profile] endgames 2012-10-05 11:10 am (UTC)(link)
--what is it, exactly?

[That looks really cool.]
markofthewise: (Fall to the ground)

[personal profile] markofthewise 2012-10-05 12:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you know, it really sends a lot of mixed signals just wearing it. You should know that.

[He hands back her card, slightly frustrated at the mistake and majorly frustrated at not even knowing if he even HAS a mother.]

"Which...you obviously did. Make it stop. Seeing as how you're not currently a popsicle."

Those were things, right? Popsicles.

No, no, thank you! After all, I'm the one watching girls from bridges or something. [he laughs, more at himself than anything, as he goes to pull his notecard out of his pocket]

And I'm called Masaomi.

[He appreciates the sentiment, but it also makes him laugh a little.]

Thanks. I guess it does have a nice rhythm to it. [He then looks over the rest of the card before handing it back to her.] Who's Ikki?

That sounded doable. And not too awkward considering the whole blindness thing. Yep.

She twisted the doorknob, pushing into the bathroom.

"Okay, coming in!"
