Better than being at each other's throats.

[retellers]

It was like that the first weekend after someone died, kind of. No one was outright pointing fingers but you could tell they wanted to.

[ ... ]

Swan. I mean Swan.

[cuedoves]

What did Swan think?

[ wasn't it all about nova-splintering...? ]

[retellers]

Oh, Swan has been conspiracy theorying.

[cuedoves]

Anything.... plausible, or just crazy talk?

[retellers]

No, they just don't believe in anything until they see it for themself.

[cuedoves]

Isn't that kind of... normal?

[retellers]

It depends on the context.

Like, if someone came up to you and said they got robbed but you didn't witness it happening. Would you call them a liar just because you didn't see it for yourself? Does their claim only matter if you, personally, can verify it with your own eyes?

[cuedoves]

Some people would lie about that.

... But it does depend. What did Swan not believe in?

[retellers]

Well, ignoring that you have been bumped down on my list of people to go to if I'm ever in trouble, Swan just thinks we're all secretly evil and trying to backstab each other.

I don't know if their opinion has changed much.

[cuedoves]

You wouldn't go to anyone if you were in trouble. [ call out!!! ] And you aren't someone I'd be suspicious of.

Uh. Well. Doesn't that include her?

[retellers]

[ zuko continues to be funny without meaning to be. ]

I think Swan is just the type to form opinions on things quickly and then gets very passionate about those opinions, whether or not they're right or wrong. They follow their feelings on a lot of things.

[cuedoves]

... Yeah, I did get that impression. But she'll probably smarten up... eventually.

[retellers]

They're going to have to sooner or later.

[cuedoves]

... Yeah. That can apply to most here, too.

[ we can prob wrap this and freeancia ]
