Welcome to Republic City!

[cyclicalitymods]

It was a bright and sunny normal day in Republic City. Children were playing, spirits were chirping about, and everything was going along like normal. Well at least that's what everyone seemed to think. That is until so many people seemed to be appearing out of nowhere. For some reason Republic City seemed to be more lively and the crowds bigger.

The spirits have grown restless as if something important was about to change, and to try to fix that change, the spirits with their big long tree like limbs dragged people into the world left and right. Even the vines covering Republic City seemed to help. Although the spirits had the best intentions in mind, some people were more affected by the grab than others. There's talk that people in this city don't even know what this place is. People who have never heard of the words "bender" or "non-bender."

Welcome to Republic City! And to those who already live here: Happy Saturday. Please make yourselves at home and don't mind a little spirit gunk. It's mostly harmless. Go enjoy yourself a classic mover. Maybe you're the athletic type. If that's the case, come watch a few Pro-bending matches or form your own team. Just watch out for any Satomobiles. They can be deadly no matter how pretty the driver is.

Please remember to enjoy your stay and don't cause too much trouble. The Republic City Police don't need more riffraff to take care of. And don't stray too far. To make the the peace is kept, there's a huge spirit barrier around the perimeter of the city. It seems pretty strong, but it won't be able to last forever. Still, it's worrying. Radio signals and telegraphs don't seem to be getting past it.

No worries.

Her eyebrow arched before she could steel the expression. She didn't want to look too interested, and Mikazuki seemed like he was in one piece. Usually anyone that had been attacked in the desert was considerably less so and not fond of it.

"Quiet, eh?" She was glad on his behalf to hear that. It was clear that he probably hadn't seen her tribe and even though a part of her wanted to ask she knew it was better to just let it go. "Long stretches of sandy nothing can get pretty boring, I suppose."

If she mentioned it, Mikazuki would've been very disappointed to have missed it. Lone traveler in the desert, attacked by thieves that take what little he owns and leave him to the mercy of the desert… Mikazuki would consider it a fun afternoon.

Then again, Mikazuki was a little crazy.

"Some of it was beautiful, in a way… I suppose stretches of nothing are good for thinking deep thoughts," he grinned, "but I'm not a great thinker."

"Oh really?" Teasing, sort of. She certainly didn't intend it to be fully insulting. "Well you said it, not me." Allowing herself a little chuckle. He was a good boy for a laugh, at the very least.

"That must mean the city keeps you preoccupied enough not to have to trouble your brain." Almost adding in the word 'little' but thinking better of it. There was no reason to be mean, after all.

He would so not be offended if she added 'little'. In fact, he would insist on 'pretty little brain' just to hear something so wonderfully cheesy.

"Yep, you got it! I'm a man of action, never sit still." A mischievous grin. "Except when I talk to pretty ladies at the park."

"Aw." It was more of a simple noise than an actual word, but steeped in amusement. Clearly she was a woman who was used to compliments, but they never got old. She was never really tired of being told nice things about herself. "Well aren't you sweet." And there in the beginning she'd thought they were really going to get off on the wrong foot.

"Well this pretty lady would hate to keep you from being up and about." That and she was just about ready to do the other side she'd put off when he first approached.

"Haha, of course." He got to his feet and wiped some grass off his clothes. "It was nice meeting you, big sis! I'm sure I'll see you around!"

He grinned, waved her goodbye and set off to his merry way. It was quite fun, talking to her. A pleasantly unexpected break.
