three whirlwinds. VIDEO + ACTION.
[ Strange. Definitely very strange. Ikki knew the room, because it was hers, but it wasn't right. Things weren't there, or were cleaned away, and although she searched around for it, she couldn't find her box or her clothes or even her sister. No matter how hard she tried to think about it, she couldn't really make things mesh in her head.
...Oh well! Humming softly to herself, Ikki opens the journal, going to her favourite setting - video. She doesn't look overly worried, although she's more or less baffled - she fully expects someone will find her and explain things, or at least tell her where to go. ]
Jinoraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! D'you have my things? Or does someone else? 'Cause I can't find 'em. Or you, so I'm using this, although I dunno the chances of you reading this book instead of another book. [ Pouting. It would be so much easier if her sister weren't constantly buried in books. At least there's a very good chance some of her other family members will see this. At least, that's the entire plan - so far as Ikki plans anything. ]
Y'know, I could have really important news and you'd miss it 'cause I can't find you! I mean, I don't. I think. I mean, I guess I sorta do, but not ACTUALLY and if you'd read this you'd probably KNOW it already. I mean, I can probably think of some! But anyway my POINT is that now I'm gonna have to run over to the library 'cause that's probably where you are, and if you aren't I'm basically gonna have to run around everywhere instead 'cause maybe you decided to go sit and read on a bench but how do I know if you did, you know? And it's not like I know all the little places you could be or might be 'cause I'm not totally sure about that right now and anyway this is a bigger area to check than usual which is ANNOYING 'cause I don't know where you are for SURE and you might not be where I think you are and you might not even be where I don't think you are, and that gets CONFUSING.
[ Apparently that was all on one breath, because she has to pause to take another, still gesturing vaguely with her hands. ] Or! I guess I'll go check for my clothes first, 'cause the dress is nice an' all but at least that'd be some of my things down, I guess? An' that's on the way anyway, so I guess that works! But! If you're not here, then you might be there? I mean, 'cause where else would you sleep? [ She's not even really talking to her sister any longer, if she ever was. Hrm. ] 'Kay! So I'll go get my clothes, and then go back and check if you're at the other house. [ Aaaand that's a wrap. Video function ended. Feel free to hit her up in journals/on the path of House 58 > shops > House 56, if you want. ]
[ACTION; HOUSE 56]
[ And post picking up her clothing, Ikki wanders back to her second household - which was the first, a little while back - to locate any of the relatives she hadn't managed to find to begin with. She does not actually knock on the door, but will just go inside and track down anyone who is there. And also probably take an apple or something to eat. ]

[Action]
Lots of cleaning, huh? The it sounds like you really earned this snack, Ikki.
[Action]
Yep! I helped out lots! We all did, though.
[Action]
(He doesn't know we have to wait another year from that).]That's great. Working together like a family. Just like we do here!
[Action]
[Action]
[And while they're talking, Momo slips onto the table and plucks a piece of banana from Aang's parfait to begin chewing on.]
[Action]
[ She giggles at Momo, and fishes out one of her own banana pieces to offer to the small creature. ]
[Action]
Yeah, it's new people time alright. [Her return being what he least expected this time... even if it's what he wanted the most.] There's no one I know from my present, but someone else did arrive from your time. Korra's friend Bolin.
[Action]
[Action]
Yep! Pabu's here and he's a really cute ferret. I'm sure they'll both be real glad to see you, Ikki.
[Action]
He knows tricks and he's soft and really fast! [ Which she may or may not know from running around chasing him. ]
[Action]
He does, huh? I should get him to show me some tricks. And maybe he can teach some to Momo, too! [Momo stares forward, making an inquisitive gurgle.]
[Action]

[Action]
[Action] - 1/2
[Aang hops out of the chair, brimming with excitement. He had felt such crushing regret that Ikki had left without him ever getting to show her this trick; he realize it was foolish to have held it off when she was first around.
He nervously fumbles into his robes to grab something, holds it between two cupped hands and then, with the hands held towards Ikki, he opens them to reveal...]
[Action]
[Action]
Airbending tricks are always the best! Ikki abandoned her parfait, leaning closer to her grandfather. ]
Cooooool! Hey, can you make them go in a figure eight? Can I try? Did you make it up yourself? Where'd you get the marbles?
[Action]
Figure eight? Let's go for it! [He focuses a second and redirects it into a figure eight.] You can try too, sure! Want me to send you some marbles? And I did make it up myself, these marbles are from the Southern Air Temple!
[Action]
She will also never not turn it into a game. ]
Yeah! [ Ikki positions her own hands, a bit wider than Aang's, and has to focus for a minute to work up a tiny current, to catch whatever he throws. ]
[Action]
[He slowly sends off two marbles from his ring towards Ikki's hands. This is so fun.]
[Action]
Ikki stays quiet for a few moments, catching the marbles with her own breeze, and focusing on the marbles between her palms long enough to make certain she can do it. She'd been watching Aang, but the marbles are small and figuring out how to balance them takes up all her attention for a little while.
It's pretty rare to see her quiet and calm, unless she's been told to meditate. When she's trying out new airbending moves, though, she automatically clears her mind like she's supposed to. Seven plus years of learning does that to a girl.
When she's reasonably certain the marbles won't fall out of whack, Ikki grins, looking back up at Aang for approval, although she's just doing a simple circle rather than attempting a more complex figure. ]
[Action]
That's amazing, Ikki. You're a real natural.
[Action]
I had a good teacher! [ and now everyone in the house will probably get this demonstrated to them several times over the next day or so, because of course. ]
[Action]
I can even tell where you're gonna get your own arrow someday. Right... [He leans forward to briefly tap her forehead with a kiss.] here!
