We still need people for the PRANK WAR!

Come one, guys! You cannot tell me that you are not bored!

So far we have: Brittany, Claudia, Santana, George, Alex, Ginny and me! That's not enough.

Rules still haven't changed. We play in two teams and prank each other in the most creative way. Sign up till tomorrow evening and I will split up the teams and try to match them according to everyone's powers, that's why I'll need you to state if you have special skills.

Sooo... come on, and let us cure your boredom!

Hey. Wanna get out of here for awhile?

[Text post viewable by the whole train]

Okay. So I know Maryanne posted about getting a ticket, but I don't know if anyone else has gotten them. Mine gave me a token that lets me leave the train. I've used it a few times now and it's been fun, but I wish there were some sort of logic to how it worked, like why I got one and other people didn't.

You know what would be nice, train? If one of these candies actually made me see any of this stuff.

Well, this is ... unsettling.

For those who haven't been outside to look yet, it appears the train is tangled up in a mess of vines. I'm not certain if this is what stopped us, but it can't hurt to try to clear them away all the same. I don't know what we have as far as blades go, but if anyone's interested ...

It's also been noted that the doors won't close. If anyone would care to start putting wards up on them, to perhaps at least give us time to react if something tries to come in, if we can't block it completely, that would be lovely.

I'm not sure what else we can do, aside from trying to free the train. If that doesn't work, I suppose we'll regroup and ... try something else.

People with good eyesight (and perhaps good aim), if you could perhaps keep a patrol around the train to watch for predators? I suggest no one wander too far away; if we do manage to get this restarted, I'd hate for anyone to be stuck here.

If anyone has any other suggestions, please don't hesitate to suggest them. This ... is something of a unique situation, and I'm not sure how we're meant to handle it.

My bending is BACK!

[Some dull clangs can be heard followed by a scraping noise - like the edge of a broken piece of metal being scraped against another hard surface.]

Who wants footrests? They'll disappear overnight. They always do. But I can make 'em again. Because my bending is back!

[The tone in Toph's voice as she speaks is somewhere between distressed and angry.]

I've lost my bending! I can't sense and I can't see.

[There is a clang as her phone hits something and muffled sounds as she struggles to find it and switch it off.]

[The video opens to a rather unhappy looking young man with black hair who is giving the camera and intense and angry glare, dressed in dark-red robes, a large and very visible scar around his left eye, his hair done up in this style. He crosses his arms across his chest.]

I demand to know where this is, and why I have been brought here. I do not appreciated being manhandled in this manner.

Also, I would like to know the whereabouts of this Sophia Peltier person I am supposed to be rooming with.

[There's a silence followed by some muffled clunks as the phone is moved from a desk.]

I'M TOPH.

COULD WHOEVER IS COMING INTO MY ROOM AND BEATING MY FOOTREST BACK INTO PLACE STOP.

OH, AND IF THERE ARE OTHER BENDERS ON THE TRAIN [...] VOICE ME BACK.
