[...This book is so, so weird. She's still not comfortable talking into the thing and she's only done it twice so far. But, might as well leap right into the fire. Being impulsive isn't quite her thing, but hesitating isn't either]

Is this working...? Yeah, I think so- Good evening everyone. I just arrived yesterday and I thought I should introduce myself; my name's Asami. [...] And... if anyone wants to help me with a few things I'd really appreciate that.

[She's sure the people in the Avatar cast could help her with most of these too, but she's imposing enough by having slept in Sokka's room last night (reducing him to the couch) and she needs to figure out a few things here like somewhere else to stay, new wardrobe, her gauntlet, all that stuff.]

Other than that, does anyone like sports? I'm fond of racing and probending, myself.

[...there, that's a conversation starter too.

Bonus Action: While she's looking for people to do it with her, either way she'll be hitting up All Passions, the Item Shop, looking for a room in Community Building 5, and surveying the houses around the Avatar House (56)]

Come to think of it, Katara might have a lot of fouls too, for the same reason Korra did when she started out. Probending does demand a pretty different style to the old forms.

It does, huh? We might just all need help adjusting if that's the case. Is it really that different?

To be honest, I'm not super familiar with old forms so I couldn't go into nuances, but just some of the basics - no streams of fire or water, no use of water in any form but a liquid, and fire or earth can't aim for the head - stand out to me.

I guess that makes sense. I can keep that in mind next time I practice. And hey, you're always welcome to stop by bending practice, and maybe it can give you a better idea of how the forms are different. [It's a little weird to think of the forms changing over time - what was wrong with them the way the are? - but if it was just to keep this game safe, he feels understanding.]

You're inviting me to watch your practice? [She doesn't normally watch benders practice but. Avatar Aang? She might just go for it. In fact] I'll take you up on that.

Feel free to! I don't mind an audience. I do a lot of my practice early in the morning, but I also do some later in the day if that;s better for you. [Will you join Katara in defying the morning in all of its early to rise glory? He wonders.]

How early in the morning do you mean, actually?

As early as possible! I do firebending with Zuko around sunrise, then I tutor the kids in airbending about an hour later.

[...How does one talk back to Avatar Aang?]

Then maybe I'll sit in on something later in the day.

Gotcha.

[He's known Katara for a long time. He's used to this kind of thing.]

Then I'll just give you a heads up when I'm gonna do some!

Okay. I'll be looking forward to it, Avatar Aang.

Great. I'll see you around, then. It's been nice talking to you, Asami!
