[The journal begins broadcasting with a whump as it hits the ground and falls open. What comes through is definitely Katara's voice, just - higher.] -- oh no! No nooo no no no!

[And then a crash as the chair she's balancing on tips over, dumping her onto her rear and toppling at her side. The wail that comes through the journal is frustrated.]

I can't reach anything anymore! This loss is stupid!

[Anyone who happens in the kitchen will find her struggling to reach.. everything.]

Natsuki.

[Katara stands, pressing her face into her hands with a groan.]

This isn't funny.

[it takes a moment, but she finally turns around and looks at the other girl with a straight face. Relatively so, at any rate. A corner of her lips seems to be twitching ever upwards.]

Need some help?

[man, where's Zuko when you need him]

[waterbends]

I can do it on my own.

[STUBBORN. Sob, so stubborn, even as she struggles with righting the chair.]

I don't remember being this little being so hard.

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

[she just grabs a cup of coffee and settles onto a chair at the table. Definitely not missing this.]

Maybe you should try a step ladder.

[waterbends]

[Katara considers that for a moment, before wishing one up and - wow, this is handy. She very, very carefully climbs it.]

How's Zuko been?

[Her tone is AGGRESSIVELY NORMAL.]

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

[heh]

Angry and sulking, as far as I can tell.

[waterbends]

So exactly the same as normal, huh.

[She caaarefully retrieves a plate.]

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

Hawks pretty much have only one expression. [heh] Which is extremely fitting.

[waterbends]

Were you able to find something to feed him?

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I got some mice from the pet store.

[snerk] He gave me the worst glare.

[waterbends]

But I bet he ate them anyway, didn't he?

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

When there's nothing else to eat...

[heh] Speaking of, can't you just grab something out of the fridge?

[waterbends]

I needed plates.

[And with those acquired, she descends the stepladder.]

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

That was what all the screaming was about?

[waterbends]

Yeah. I guess I'll just have to.. deal until the castle fixes me.

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

[hiding another snicker]

No 9 o'clock bedtime for you, hm?

[waterbends]

As if. Maybe I can ask the castle for really tall shoes.

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

Why don't you try stilts?

[cause that might be funnier to see]

[waterbends]

Yeah, because that wouldn't end in disaster.

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

It would make for a great picture.

[waterbends]

You're just as bad as Zuko.

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

Hey! I take offense to that.

[....snerk]

[waterbends]

There had to be some reason you two get along.

[sexyhitchhiker.livejournal.com]

[casual shrug]

I think half of it is the shared mortifying experiences.

[waterbends]

Yeah, but you just said it: that's only half.
