[Locational lock to Somewhere In The Wilderness]

[head_overheels]

[On this late summer night in Camp Fuck You Die, Ty Lee has found herself in the outskirts of the woods preparing for something like the one-week mark of sleeping outside instead at either her own cabin or her girlfriend's due to a giant mess of issues and fail. This is the kind of deep, tortured anguish that requires a lot of brooding to one's self in complete seclusion from the rest of the world and pondering deep matters like the nature of friendship and so on.

... well, no, actually she's just stargazing and listening to "Take a Bow" by Rihanna. This is serious sulking, people.]

You're here all along.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

*... let's just put the top 40 R&B on pause, shall we*

... oh, hey.

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

[looks over at you while leaning on a tree trunk]

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

... what?

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

Nothing. Just do what you do.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

[That's cool, sprawling out a bit more and going back to looking at the stars]

What I do like what I've been doing for the last week, or what I do like what I do normally?

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

What's the difference?

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

The part where I haven't been home in two weeks and Azula and I are mad at each other or something?

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

Right.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

*Sighing a little*

Right.

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

Done with that yet?

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

Once Azula and I talk things out.

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

Can you? She's crankier than usual.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

I have to try, right?

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

It's Azula.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

I know. Which is kinda why I do have to try.

[youmainot.livejournal.com]

[If I could facepalm I would]

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

[has quietly appeared, but that's less to ninja skills and more that music is loud and annoying]

You're late.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

[okay she sensed your aura from a mile away but still shifting a lot and pausing the music]

How'd you know I was here?

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

I recognized the noise.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

Oh. Right. What do you mean, late?

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

It's two weeks and three days as of this evening. That's more than enough time.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

... so you actually want me back?

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

[looks at the state of her clothes but not directly at her]

I expect the novelty of camping outside has worn off.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

... well, it has, but...

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

So?

[gestures with her hand toward the cabin] Come on. It's getting late.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

So are we just going to act like the last couple weeks didn't happen at all or what?

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

They happened.

Why? Are you thinking of a repeat performance?

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

No no no, not at all! I... I mean, look. I was really immature last time we talked to each other and I'm sorry about that. I was being dumb and stubborn and I handled everything the wrong way. But it's just... that vacation thing bugged you, and I don't get why. I mean, like, why is it such a bad thing that I just wanted some time to myself after being exhausted all week?

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

[doesn't turn but obviously shifts in her demeanor]

Exhausted from being trapped in a summer camp.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

So what, because it's a summer camp means it should automatically be super-fun and relaxing when like two-thirds of everyone from my world turns into kids and keep fighting with each other?

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

None of which needed your intervention.

If you so desperately needed a 'time out' that would have been the best time to excuse yourself. Not waiting until we were all back to normal before acting like a child.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

Yes, they did.

Oh, whatever! All I did was say I was going to spend a week at my girlfriend's and then you turned it into this big thing and mentioned it over and over and over again the next time we saw each other! If you hadn't done that I wouldn't have reacted like I did!

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

There are two consequences for assaulting a member of the royal family like that. Exile or execution. Are you saying that I was not within my right to punish them?

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

Scare them to death, sure, or beat them up like you did with Sokka initially. But it was just a couple of dumb kids and this isn't the Fire Nation. I mean, if our whole thing here is forming alliances and making good impressions, what kind of message is executing an eight-year old going to send to the rest of camp if they found out?

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

Those measures wouldn't have been necessary, but it's admittedly harder to intimidate someone when there's a circus performer hanging about with the mistaken assumption that she has a reason to be there.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

Lan was crying his eyes out and never bugged you again and Sokka's too stupid to understand how to be scared. But... I dunno. We're probably never going to see eye-to-eye on this anyway so we should probably just move on.

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

[looks like she has a dozen things to say, all of them designed to reduce someone to tears, but apart from a small sneer doesn't let it pass her lips before turning away toward the cabin]

Then stop dragging your heels and get a move on.

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

[Don't worry I'm probably going to cry sometime later tonight when I get the opportunity to find a secluded place for a little while anyway if that makes you feel any better]

... okay.

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

[But they were some really choice psychological gutpunches that provided equal parts insight and sadism, it's not the same. :/

Oh well, heading off in the lead, not waiting for you to catch up]

[head-overheels.livejournal.com]

[Yeah I'm going to pick up my stuff and shoot a choice frustrated look at you while you're walking off, don't mind me]

[sharpasfire.livejournal.com]

[Like she isn't already used to it from Mai]
