Day 209 ✝ Action
✝ Action with Spencer Reid
Derek smiled brightly when he saw Reid walk into the athletic complex almost right on time to when they’d agreed to meet. He’d almost expected him to find an excuse not to show since this wasn’t really Reid’s thing, so he was really more than happy that he did. He’d wanted some time with his friend to see how he was really doing and this was as good excuse as any without being overly obvious that he was checking up on him. Reid could really just be happy that Derek wasn’t busting down his door again and pushing his way in. Improvement? Yes. Never let it be said that Derek couldn’t grow and change… kind of.

He stood up from the chair he’d been sitting in and picked up his bag. He’d already claimed a room to work in, like he usually did. One hand clapped down on Reid’s shoulder and squeezed. “Hey pretty boy. Almost thought you might not show.”

✝ Action with Rogue
For weeks now Derek and Rogue had been working privately with each other. It was actually working with her that had made him think about giving more lessons in self-defense… maybe even starting a class. But it was still just an idea he was toying with more than one he was actually putting into motion. Not that he would turn down anyone who wanted to learn or spar. He just wasn’t advertising it yet.

He was in his normal room that he occupied with a nice mat on a part of the floor. When Rogue came in, he smiled in her direction. “Hey, pretty girl. Doin’ alright? You get caught up in that mess yesterday?”

✝ Open Action for anyone and everyone
For the better part of the morning Derek will be at the Athletic Complex in Sector one. He’ll probably break for lunch and then head into the Defense Force Headquarters in Sector Two for a bit to do some work. Anyone is free to run into him in either place or in the in-between.

	[Which, of course brought about another question. Because he's trying to picture what airbending and he has no clue. He's imagining it as some sort of aerobics workout, which could be completely off the mark.] Tell me about this airbending thing. What kind of training is that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Right. I forgot you guys don't have bending where you come from. [It's kind of neat, getting to put on the teacher hat.] Bending is the ability to manipulate the elements. Water, fire, earth, and air. Like this! [She pulls out a basic form to demonstrate and sends out a blast of air.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It's like nothing he's ever seen before. So his lips part a bit in surprise.] Wow. Alright. So can you do all four or just air? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Teehee, Korra likes being impressive. She lights a fire in her palm and smirks.] All four. I'm the Avatar. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Avatar. Like the movie with the tall blue people. [Of course the moment he says it, he knows that that isn’t what she means. He laughs a bit and shakes his head.] Alright, I know that isn’t what you mean. What’s an Avatar? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Like the what with the what? [Confused Avatar is confused. And not entirely sure how to explain. ] I'm the only person who can master all of the elements. It's my job to maintain balance in the world. [It feels inadequate as an explanation, but it's the best she's got.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The only one. [It kind of reminds him of Buffy Summers, this girl he knows in the prison who is the only one of her kind too. Avatar. Slayer. Weight of the world.] Sounds like a lot of pressure for one person. Maintaining the balance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She shrugs a little awkwardly.] It's not just me. I've got my friends who help. And I mean, I've been doing it for thousands of years. [In one form or another. She kind of forgot to mention the reincarnation bit, though.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Hold up. He's giving you a look now.] Thousands of years? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[What? ...oh. Right.] I mean, not as me right now. [She gestures to herself.] I'm part of the cycle of reincarnation. The Avatar before me, Aang, he was an Air Nomad. When he died, he was reborn as me in the Southern Water Tribe. And when I die, I'll be reborn into the Earth Kingdom. It's been like that forever. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Reincarnation. [Well, it wasn't the craziest thing he'd heard in this place. Or maybe he was just becoming desensitized to it all. Either way, he doesn't like the idea of Korra dying.] But no matter which element the Avatar is born into, they can control all of them? [Is he catching on? He feels like he's catching on.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Don't worry; she doesn't plan on reincarnating any time soon.] You got it! (Reply to this) (Parent)
