[ STOP. Stopping where she stands. Okay. Have it your way Mr. Man. I'll just stay here for now.

Annnnnd words are GO. Finally. ]

I really am sorry! It's just been so long since I've been able to do this-- I got a little carried away. [ She's apologetic for NOW, but keep that up and you'll get splashed on purpose. ] It's called waterbending.

Waterwhat?

<sub>[Standing and pulling wet hair out of face as he just frowns at her. And then ooooh wait... He talked to your brother when he first showed up, so he's heard about it a LITTLE?]

[But not much enough, because despite realizing that he's heard it before, he has no idea what it is. But, in true Tulio fashion, that is not a problem! He holds up a hand. And says no. Because he's given up on trying to understand anything ever.]</sub>

Nevermind, I don't think I want to know.

[ Oh God did my brother troll you or something? ]

[ And awww... she was just about to demonstrate. :( Sad fais ]

Well, it's usually easier to show people anyway. I promise it's really not usually like that, unless I'm fighting.

<sub>[...A sad fais? How come he can never QUITE disregard feeling bad when people pull that on him? God help him if she ever starts hanging out with Miguel, there'd be Faces all over the place.]

[He clears his throat a final time and starts drying his hands on his jacket. Gosh it's freezing. Especially when watered.]

[And there's a moment of silence ...]</sub>

So you can fight ... with water?

_{[Fine. Go ahead and show him. :| just don't hurt him. or drown him.]}

[ Well sad fais more because she made a bad impression you should see how AWESOME bending is not how uncomfortable it can make you.

... This is possible. They HAVE spoken and traded Pokemon. > > Better watch out, Tulio!

PERKING. Angry guy doesn't sound angry anymore! She grins, a subdued one, but still, and there's a nod. ] That's right. [ Streaming some water and making a whip. ] Not just fighting, really, I can use it for all kinds of things.

Aa ah ah--

_{[BACKING AWAY one or two steps. He has BAD experiences with whips and he keeps his hands up to indicate that she keeps it away from him. Like, way away from him. But he does stick around - against his better judgment, he's curious.]}

You know most people just DRINK the stuff, right?

_{[Today's dry sarcastic comment goes to you, Katara! Feel honoured.]}

[ Well GEEZ dude she's not gonna attack you unprovoked. >8| And she just gives you the most unimpressed look.

BUT REALLY SHE IS JUST SO HONORED THAT SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN.

SHE MIGHT EVEN HAVE SOME LEFT OVER TO SHARE WITH SEASON 2 ZUKO.

SO HONORED ]

Well of course it's still for drinking, and cooking, just like air is for breathing. That doesn't mean it can't be bended. It just so happens that I can clean water for drinking, [ Sometimes it requires the help of an Earthbender, but... ] and heal with it, too.

<sub>[WELL he didn't think you'd attack him, just. Do it on accident again. You know, like that first time? Yeah, it wasn't funny.]

[He .. has to stop to make an interested face at that though.]</sub>

Thaaat sounds pretty useful. How do you go about this bending business anyway? Is it magic?

No, it isn't magic. [ She demonstrates some warm-up forms and goes on. ] I control the movement and nature of the water with my body's energy and motions, my chi. [ And stop. And looking at you again there Tulio. ]

_{[Yeah, he'll be looking back - he IS impressed and more than a little amazed at the ease she controls the water with.]}

So it's sort of like .. your spirit?

_{[Raised in Church-y times, this one.]}
