[ woolooloos in ]

Hi, Zuko. You wanted to talk?

[cuedoves]

I wanted to make sure you didn't teleport into a gorilla or something.

[ wow??? tsun??? ]

But also to ask you some things.

[retellers]

Wh--Why would I teleport into a gorilla?!

[ RUDE? FUCK YOUR QUESTIONS THAT WAS RUDE ]

[cuedoves]

It seems like something you'd do.

[ does it. ]

[retellers]

Oh, really.

[ zuko you do this to yourself. anyway they grab him and oops here they are in a gorilla nest. The gorillas... are staring. ]

Oops. Oh no, what could we possibly do now.

[cuedoves]

--- Hey!

[ oh my god so many gorillas ]

Are you crazy?! What are you doing?

[ he's going to die tonight ]

[retellers]

What you expected of me!

[

:) just smiles as the gorillas get closer ]

[cuedoves]

You're such a brat!

[ his hands are hovering close to his sheathed swords..... ]

Fine, you've made your point. Now get us out of here!

[retellers]

Ugh, I should leave you here.

[ but no, they grab him before the gorillas attack, bringing them to the bottom of The Tree ]

[cuedoves]

[ he would have fought them all!! but no he looks relieved when they're at the base. ]

I didn't mean it like that, okay? [ how else would he have meant it. ]

[retellers]

How else would you have meant it?

[ :/ ]

[cuedoves]

You're reckless! Sometimes! And there's that rule about you guys losing powers on Thursday if your team members die!

[ perhaps.... he is worried? ]

[retellers]

It's not Thursday! You saw me like an hour ago!

[ WHEN A MAN FAILED TO DIE ]

[cuedoves]

I know it's not! But the rules might get worse! So I want to make sure you're prepared for that and not.... teleporting into-- [ don't say gorillas ] you know, dangerous stuff!

[retellers]

I can teleport out of danger too, hello? [ FOOL ]

[cuedoves]

You can't rely on it all the time! Especially if things get worse!

[ forgive him swan he's just a dumb boy ]

[retellers]

Excuse you, I can still fight even if I can't teleport!

[ this is the stupidest ]

[cuedoves]

Ugh, just.. forget I said anything!

[ girls are the worst ]

[retellers]

Ugh. [ zukos are the worst? ] Just. Ask what you wanted to already.

[cuedoves]

[ ugh!!!!!!!! ]

You're probably not going to answer me anyway.

[ zuko stop sulking. ]

[retellers]

Ughhhhh. If I wasn't going to answer you, I would've left already. You're the one who doesn't think I can handle myself, you don't get to start sulking.

[cuedoves]

[ huffs. ]

Look, it's not that. I know you can handle yourself. But if given the chance, people here might try to kill you. And I don't want that chance to happen.

[ he's just very bad at expressing it, is all. anyway, the anger is evaporating. ]

... I wanted to ask you if you remembered anything.

[retellers]

[ ... they seem to relax a little, looking a little less defensive now that zuko is less of a meanie pants ]

About what?

[cuedoves]

[ he's just looking embarrassed now... ]

Uh. Anything?

[retellers]

[ ... they laugh a little ]

Anything? Wow, that's specific.
