[ Voice, Action ] .017

[It's the second day of a heatwave, and it's amazing how little things like weather can drive man-eating butterflies, flying trees of burning pointy doom, and missing friends from a Southern Watertibe girl's mind. ...OK, maybe not that last one, but she's feeling this heat in her bones, man, and it's driven her to put on her Fire Nation outfit and just lounge around, trying not to think about the horrible things she's seen week... which of course makes her think about the horrible things she's seen everywhere.

But the best way to get rid of bad memories is to think about good ones... and when that fails, make them.

And so, Katara Has An Idea. She grabs her brother, he agrees, and they make their way to the center of the square and set up a table. It's laden with fruits and sugars and stacks of glasses.

A little bit of waterbending later? And that fountain is now completely iced over, meant to resemble one of their 'Great Wonders of the World', an ice oasis in the middle of the desert.

When they're all set up, Katara makes a voice entry.]

Hey, everyone! Come on to the fountain for free fruit slushies!


[Feel free to come upon them on any part of the process, stop by for a slushie, or take a look at the pretty ice-fountain! Either Sokka, Katara or (eventually, as I have to run out right now) both will answer!]

[He nods.] It's good. [So's the slushie.]

Maybe this will be the hottest it'll get.

[markofthebrave]

That would be nice. But we haven't even hit this place's summer yet. I plan on freezing our walls if it gets too bad.

[action]

[likeafirework.livejournal.com]

That's an idea. I might bypass the walls and just go for freezing the lake.

[action]

[markofthebrave]

And then what? Live in the lake?

[action]

[likeafirework.livejournal.com]

That might be better than sweltering.

[action]

[markofthebrave]

Yeah, but it might make breathing difficult.

[action]

[likeafirework.livejournal.com]

Some sacrifices are worth it.

[markofthewise]

The mountains would make more sense. Higher altitude, cooler weather.

[WHY YES, Sokka has been here the whole time barely caring about your conversation.]

[Sokka has a point. Hitsugaya likes where this is going. Musing a bit:]

Less people around. [Antisocial? Him? Never.]

[action]

[markofthebrave]

[Oh great, another one. And she hates talking about Aku.]

Yeah, a lot less people. It probably has to do with the giant shapeshifting demon that likes to claim the mountains as his.
