[ooc; This takes place some time after this log.]

[Zuko's on the prowl. He believes there's only one person who can help him with his current predicament. She's motherly and caring and passionate. Yeah - he's definitely sure that she can help him.

Watch out, Katara, he's on the search for you! And he has picture evidence!

His first stop is to the girl's 1F dormitory and after that, the Library, and after that the Quad. He's hoping she'll be in her room relaxing or something after their Friday classes. Or maybe his best bet would be to check the Cafeteria...

Either way. He's turning onto the main level dormitory, not knowing that her room is actually on the 2F.]

THAT YOU WERE GOING TO HIT ME PUT THE FIRE AWAY! [And Sokka--

well, Sokka throws the contents of his remaining drink from lunch at Zuko. Because. Yeah.]

[Said drink splashes all over his face, drips off onto his chest.

Well that's surprising. MORE than surprising.

Zuko stares at him and doesn't move a muscle, he's that surprised. WHO THE HELL THROWS THEIR DRINK ON SOMEONE--

But it doesn't take long-- seconds really-- before he's heating his body temperature up and the liquid dries out on his skin and somewhat on his clothing; Zuko just glowers.

That's right. Glowers.

And readies a well-deserved, fireless punch, arm pulling back-- OPENTHEDOOROPENTHEDOOROPENTHEDOOR--]

I'M SORRY IT WAS A REFLEX--!![Sokka might make a high pitched sound, not so manly, but he ducks as Zuko swings because he likes his face, okay? he likes his face a lot, and Piandao hammered a good reflex or three into the kid before setting him loose.]

[Katara had been taking a light nap, hence the delay in answering the knocks. The ruckus was growing louder and louder though, to the point where it managed to finally wake her and catch her attention. It's in that moment that Katara chooses to open the door. When the hallway is revealed to her, the first thing she sees is a fist sailing straight for her--

Reflex kicks in, and Katara ducks. She's about to roll back into her room and slide the door shut when she chances a glance upwards, and sees a furious Zuko looming over her. Was he trying to pick a fight?

She immediately straightens, backing into her room slightly to give her some space. She then shifts into a defensive stance, hands held up in front of her.]

Zuko, what are you doing!

Edited 2010-09-14 16:11 (UTC)

[Oh shit--

Zuko's immediate reaction to seeing her with her hands up and her stance a defensive one was to mirror it. His infuriated expression relaxed then as he remembers why he was looking for the waterbender in the first place.

He throws a glare down at Sokka and looks back up at her.]

I was looking for you!

Your brother was trying to be antagonizing and threw his drink at me.

[The damp stains are still there on the upper part of his Garden hoodie.]

[Sokka's glad that his sister has good reflexes, because he would have felt pretty bad if Zuko had punched her. He's still crouched, hands in a manly pose over his head. He glances from one to the other before jumping up--] I was NOT! You had fire! IT WAS A REFLEX!

[Sokka glances back at his sister.] Did you know that Zuko has a warm and fluffy chewy center?

[At the mention of her brother, Katara looks past the door frame to see Sokka cowering off to the side. But his sudden burst of words had Katara glaring at Zuko all over again.]

You were firebending at Sokka?!

[She's just about to lift her hand to swipe at the air to draw out some water when Sokka's unexpected question catches her off guard. Lowering her stance, she crosses her arms as she quirks a brow.]

Zuko? Fluffy center? What are you talking about?

[Sighing, out comes the picture (http://i52.tinypic.com/4hxu9s.png). Zuko holds it out to Katara.]

He was getting on my nerves and I guess I almost lost my temper.

Like I said - he was antagonizing me.

Anyways.

You're uh motherly, right? I might... need your help...

Do you know what this is?

[Sokka leans over Katara's shoulder.] It looks a little like a catbird, but it's hard to tell from Zuko's drawing. It might be a cantaloupe.

[Katara just stares at the drawing. She's trying her best to make out what it is, really, she is, but the first thing that comes to mind:]

Is that... an otter penguin?

[He lets out an aggravated growl and snatches the picture out of her hands, shoving it into his pocket.]

You know what - forget it.

I'll just go back into town where I found them and ask around.

[Bye guys. He's on a mission.

Zuko turns and heads for the elevator, muttering to himself.]

Edited 2010-09-15 15:12 (UTC)

[Otter penguins?!] Wait, Zuko! You have otter penguins?!

Wait, Zuko!

[Before he can make it out to the elevator, Katara reaches out and grabs him by the shoulder.]

I'll help. What do you want me to do?

[Lucky for you, Katara, it's the GOOD shoulder.]

I don't know what they are, but they're small. And they make a lot of noise.

And no, they're not otter penguins, Sokka. [Rubs heel of his palm into his brow and continues onto the elevator.]

They're uh... fluffy. Really fluffy. And probably only the size of my hand.

[Sokka heads after Katara and Zuko, into the hallway and elevator. If there's something fluffy and tiny in some box that Zuko has...

Well they might make really great sandwhiches.]

[Katara follows along as they move to the elevator. With the way that Zuko's describing the creatures, she's growing more and more curious.]

Can I see them?

[Once inside the elevator, he chews the inside of his cheek and contemplates what to do next. They'll need to eat right? He has no flipping idea what to do with these fluffy things.]

Yeah, I don't care. [He finally tells her after a moment. Then looks at Sokka.]

Let me guess-- you want to see them, too?

[Sokka shrugs.] Why wouldn't I? Don't get all stingy on me now, Zuko. After all, you nearly burned me to a crisp. [Smile.]

[Into the elevator they go! She pushes the button for the first floor before leaning against the back of the small compartment.]

So what exactly do you need my help for?

You deserved it!

[Zuko folds his arms over his chest and frowns at Sokka, then at Katara.]

You are a girl, right?

I did not!

And that's kinda insulting, don't you think? Of course she's a girl, she's got--

Well. Uh. The hair loopies. [Ahem.]

[You get a quirked brow, Sokka.]

That's not really the best thing to go by-- not all girls have hair loopies. And of course I'm a girl, if you haven't noticed I wear the girls' uniform! [And Zuko gets a pointed look at that. Yes, she hasn't forgotten the whole undershirt deal.]

What does that have to do with me helping you?

How could I forget... You aren't wearing an undershirt. [Mutter mutter, which no doubt Sokka can hear.]

And hair loopies don't count. She's right. [To Sokka.

And then he sighs.]

You'll see.

[Ding! Main floor. Zuko steps out and begins to lead them to his wing of the male dorms.]

[Sokka trails behind, frowning VERY HARD.] ... what do you mean, she wasn't wearing an undershirt?

Katara?

[She's walking beside Sokka now, but oh my! Aren't the nonexistent wall decorations just fascinating?]

I don't know what he's talking about.

AS IN SOMETIME BEFORE SOKKA DIES PLSKTHKSBAIBBQ

WHICH IS, UNFORTUNATELY, GOING TO BE ... NOW KBAIBAI

YOU CANNOT NINJA A NINJA, PEACE SON // KATARA THIS PUNCH IS FOR YOU, SORRY.

KATARA TO THE RESCUE
