[ The sudden embrace squeezed a startled 'oof' out of Zuko, who stood there, swords held out as he frowned down at Aang in a mixture of exasperation and concern. He had felt unmoored since arriving in this weird world, and while he did absolutely nothing to show it - the hug didn't go unappreciated. ]
Can you still bend? [ It was almost funny - not that long ago, hearing that Aang couldn't bend would have been the best news he could have hoped for, but things had changed, and they kept right on changing.
The grimace on his face deepened in severity when Aang asked about the others, and while Zuko wanted nothing more than to give the Avatar good news, he shook his head, obviously dismayed. ]
No, there's nothing familiar about this place. They don't even have benders here.
[ Once Aang detached himself Zuko finally got his hand on the Avatar's shoulder and pulled him forward - they weren't going to be without unwanted company for too long in this tower. He was certain he could hear another skirmish breaking out up ahead. ]
sorry for the delay, yesterday was a beast!
