[bentflame]

I have a sister. A sister.

[she says this a few more times, rolling it around in her mind]

... Hm.

[Elektra laughs.] Yeah. I do. Unless you're mutant with too much time on your hands, there's no way you could have gotten me here just be touching me.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No, I'm not a mutant. I'm a normal human.

[... except for the bending thing, but that's normal on her world]

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

Except for the power to bend fire right?

[Elektra opens the door to cafe and walks on in.]

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

But that's normal at home.

[follows!]

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

[As usual just about every guy and probably some girls too turn around to look at Elektra. She seems oblivious to it.]

It's not exactly normal around here.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

This is Earth. It's a weird planet.

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

You come from a world that isn't Earth?

[Once they make it to the counter, she orders herself a simple coffee with cream and sugar.]

Pick whatever you want.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

[... she knows nothing about coffee, so she just copies Elektra's order]

The Fire Nation isn't on an Earth. It's similar, but a lot smaller. And it doesn't have a name.

[Two coffees with sugar and cream arrive promptly! Elektra hands them the money and heads over to a nearby booth.]

Does everyone have that talent?

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No. There are benders of other elements, as well as non-benders.

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

[She sits down and takes a sip from her coffee.]

What elements?

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Water. Earth. Air.

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

You come from an amazing world, Azula. Interested in giving me a tour someday? I'll show you around New York in return.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

[loooooooooong hesitation]

It's complicated.

I can't go back right now.

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

[She raises brow but, remembers what she said before. Her situation with her father alone was reason enough for her not to go back there.]

How do you like your coffee?

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

{she hasn't tried it yet, so she takes a tiny sip now]

... It's strange. Bitter.

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

That's because it's your first time trying it.

I can order something sweeter for you if you want.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

No, it's fine.

Is this really what people drink to wake up in the morning?

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

It is. You may not feel it now but, it really wakes you up after you finish the whole thing.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I'm already awake.

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

You'll feel a little hyper then.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

"Hyper"?

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

You'll have a lot of energy you won't know what to do with.

[action]

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I know what the word means. I just don't really feel that way, at least not yet.

... I suppose I could just train it off.

[action]

[namedfortragedy.livejournal.com]

That's because you haven't finished it yet.

Good idea.
