Knock knock.

Overall, Jet was lucky, during the expedition. There hadn't been anything he couldn't handle, the people he'd gotten stuck with had been generally alright, and even the train crash hadn't left him very much worse for wear. Some cuts, bruises, a few deep scrapes. He's had worse, and will probably get worse in the future.

He'll think about the things he saw, the things he learned, and whatever went down last night later. For now, he's checking in, because Katara had asked him to, and he's working on the 'actually keeping his promises' thing. He's a little later than he said he'd be, but he's sure she won't begrudge him the time he took to throw on a change of clothes. He's here, like he promised.

Besides, he's curious to see what eight year old Katara looks like.

He shakes his head.

"My mom and dad."

"What?"

It's Katara's turn to be angry.

"How could it do that?!"

His fists clench at his sides, and he glances away.

"That's what I've been asking myself. That was one of the few things I had. Not anymore."

[waterbends]

She frowns and, for everything in the world, that anger on her face looks more like she's about to throw a tantrum than anything else.

"I'm sorry. I don't know what I'd do if I forgot my mom."

[rappelle.livejournal.com]

He shrugs.

"Maybe you'd be a little more angry, a little more often."

[waterbends]

She bites her lip.

"Go to your room and get some rest, okay?"

[rappelle.livejournal.com]

He gives her a wry look, and pats her on he head as he stands.

"Don't tell me what to do."

[waterbends]

She swats at his hand with a sulk.

"Don't pat my head!"

[rappelle.livejournal.com]

A shrug.

"I would pat your shoulder, but it's a little too close to the ground."

[waterbends]

She points at the door.

HEH.

"I'll see you later. Next time you invite me for tea, I'll be the proper lazy guest."

He shows himself out, throwing her a small grin over his shoulder.
