selfhelp | [Voice / Action]

[Okay, so. Several things need to be dealt with here, one way or another. First being the fact that he has a facetwin hanging around who is pretty damn hard to explain, though Tommy being more or less okay with the "brother" title helps with that. Second is that he knows the truth about his heritage now, which is, in short, a huge weight off his shoulders. Third is that his strength is mostly back in his arm as long as he doesn't bend or twist it in a way that stresses his brace too much, which admittedly doesn't mean much, but it does mean that he's able to finish the sketches he'd promised to Pepper's art gallery.

Thus, since it's so warm and dry today, he'll be heading out to deliver a set of hefty-sized rolled sheets of drawing paper to Pepper's art gallery, and then to swing by Tony's house to catch up on some work and maybe fill his... sort-of employer in on the recent developments. Mainly the kid with Billy's face who is probably going to hate him for a while. Tommy's not as keen to forgive as some people.

His last stop will be the plaza, armed with a miniature sketchbook, and props himself up against the side of the fountain to draw whatever comes his way. Occasionally he might have to stop and give his hand a frustrated shake, but hey, there's no physiotherapy like a good work-out, right?

At some point while he's out, though, he'll be doing what he told himself he'd get done: a journal entry that is better late than never.]

[Voice, locked from Tommy]

Hey, it's Billy. Just wanted to get it out there that if you see anybody with my face - or hear my voice, I guess - that's Tommy, my... brother. Kind of. It's complicated. He might be a bit tough to deal with sometimes, but he's not a bad guy, so just try to put up with him, if you can. He could use some friends.

[....]

Just don't let this get back to him, I'd never hear the end of it.

Only if you want to embarrass him. He doesn't really take that kind of stuff seriously.

He seemed pretty down to Earth when I spoke to him. I can sort of see why you two are a thing. [ A crooked smile. ]

This is like the kind of vacation where everything's sunny and fabulous and then a hurricane hits the day you're supposed to go whale-watching or something.

Its better than the kind of vacation that's sunny and fabulous and then Victor Von Doom and Harvey Elder turn up to wreck it all, though.

[A merry laugh]

Not fond of the experiments, or the missions, or the drafts, but you've gotta admit, at least there aren't a lot of bad people here.

[He manages a smile at that, brows lifting a little.]

Down to Earth... good way to put it. Teddy's... I don't know. He keeps me grounded. I wouldn't be who I am now without him.

Well, the word is that we all go home to the same point in time that we left, assuming we do go home, so... depends on how patient you are, I guess.

That I believe. [Appa licks, though... should he be afraid of drowning 8| He's not a cartoon.] He's not going to try and eat me, is he?

[ Glancing sideways at him. ]

... cute. You've got it really bad for him, huh?

[He returns the glance, his expression shifting to a casual deadpan.]

I think anything I could say to that would sound like it came straight out of a cheesy dollar-store romance novel, so I'll spare us both the agony.

[ She cracks up. ] Gee, thanks. I appreciate the thoughtfulness, lover boy.

[ Grinning as she leads the way into Azzip. ]

[This makes Aang laugh.]

Of course not! You can get in his mouth if you won't, but he won't eat you. He doesn't really eat meat, like my people.

And I'll keep my eye open for you brother-dearest. If he needs someone to act friendly? I can do that. I remember how much it sucks to be new here.

Do you have any siblings? You seem to know something about it.

[Billy stares at her with wide eyes for a long moment before they narrow, his lips pursing.]

That's just mean. At least follow it up with a promise to introduce me or something.

[She puts her gloved hand to her chin in contemplation.]

Does it count if I follow up by sayin' he was still in his New Feather pants at the time?

No, but I lived with three little kids back home.

No, that's true. Maybe it's just easier to complain when you don't have much to complain about. I am a teenager, after all.

Idle hands, Billy. Idle hands...

[She pauses, and there's something of a gasp as she realizes just how late the time was]

Hey, I've got some boxing lessons to get to with Mac. I'll see you later kiddo.

What, like he likes bullying people around sometimes? [BECAUSE. That kind of sucks.]

Edited 2012-09-29 02:17 (UTC)

Oh, you're a vegetarian? I could never pull that off.

[In most regards, his patience is uncanny. But with TV? Well...]

I hope they have the DVDs. I can probably tide myself over with re-runs.

No, not that, exactly. It's more like he just knows which buttons to press.

Sounds like a handful. I've got two little brothers back home, myself.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I'll give him a head's up about the fictional thing, too, but he might call you a different name. Fair warning.

[Glaaaaaaaaare.]

You're evil.

[She saw him shirtless and in person and ugh he is so jealous right now aaaaa]
