DAY 283 | FOURTH WALL | ACTION;
[ zuko's been here for over an hour and he hasn't seen one familiar face – or landmark. what started out as fading back into the crowds that flanked either side of the street in the busiest section of ember island's shopping district after spotting a cluster of soldiers had quickly turned into something else entirely. the people were different, the stores were different, and he was surrounded by water, like he was standing at the bottom of a lake, encased in the relative safety of a waterbender's air bubble.

it was near the library that the treasonous prince finally removed the hood of his cloak, realizing that it didn't matter whether someone saw the scar on his face or not, because scar or no scar, nobody was going to recognize him. wherever he was, it wasn't anywhere near ember island or the fire nation, and he had no idea how he even got here. that bothered him more than anything else. ]

Excuse me. [ he stepped out in front of the next lucky person to pass by the sidewalk leading up to the library's steps. ] What city is this?

[D'oh! She should've remembered from before — he's not the Fire Lord yet. So great. Now she looks like a crazy person. She tries to smile reassuringly, but it feels a little strange, and she realizes she can't remember how long it's been since she last smiled.]

It's... kind of a long story. The quick and dirty version is: you're in an interdimensional prison and I'm from your future. [Not even going to get into the whole "Avatar" thing yet. Just being from his future will be hard enough to swallow, without adding "I'm the reincarnation of your friend" and "I lost all my bending except airbending".]

	[ yes, because the word "interdimensional" actually meant something to someone from their world. he just stared at her as if she'd grown two heads, unsure of whether or not he should consider her words to hold any truth to them. ] I don't have time for this. [ ...apparently none, for now he was turning away from her and walking back towards the library. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Shoot! There's no way she can let him just go! She reaches out for his arm.] Wait! I know it sounds crazy, but I'm telling you the truth! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ zuko glares at her, yanking his arm free of her gasp. ] What reason do I have to believe you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Because it's the truth! [Gosh, why are you so paranoid? Do a lot of people lie about being from your future? (She'd try that "say something only someone who knows me would know" thing, but all the stuff she knows is from his future. Damn it.)] (Reply to this) (Parent)
