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.

Yes! The sidekick's very excited about this adventure. [It's weird and scary still - he has no idea where he is or where his friends could be, or how long he'll be stuck here. But a silly little adventure? That at least makes for a fun distraction. He gives her a toothy grin right back.] Ready to set off for the mysterious fountain!

If there's anything you want to see along the way please feel free to stop me because I have a feeling I'm going to be looking at everything.

[savedtheworld]

That sounds fair! I'll be sure to let you go, and you can definitely stop wherever you want, too! You're the hero, after all.

[gainedacoupon]

[ SHe laughs and pushes her bangs out of her face for a moment. ]

This is a little less scary with company, so thank you Aang.

[savedtheworld]

[He nods, with warmth in his smile.]

Trust me, I understand that feeling. Thank you too, Jin.

[gainedacoupon]

Hey aang? Do you think maybe this means we could be friends? Or maybe am I being too forward?

[savedtheworld]

Of course it's not too forward, Jin! I thought we were already friends the moment we started talking!

[gainedacoupon]

Really? That soon? You're probably the nicest person in the world!

[savedtheworld]

[fff such a compliment makes him blush.]

M-maybe not that nice! I just figure, when I see most new people, I think, 'why not be friends'? And I can never think of any answer to that! Especially when they have really friendly smiles!

[gainedacoupon]

I like the way you think, Aang! Maybe I should adopt that sort of mindset. I picked the perfect person to be my sidekick.

[savedtheworld]

Thanks! You sure picked wisely. Just as I'd expect of the hero!

[gainedacoupon]

If you compliment me so much it might go to my head.

[savedtheworld]

But I have so many more compliments I could use! What's the worst that can happen?

[gainedacoupon]

My head could get so big it exploded into billions of pieces!

[savedtheworld]

Okay, okay! [He laughs as he waves his hands in surrender.] I'll hold back, just for the sake of your head!

[gainedacoupon]

It really would be a shame. That's where I store my heroism's

[savedtheworld]

That would really be a shame. And then what kinda sidekick would I be?

[gainedacoupon]

You'd be the lonely kind without your Partner.

[savedtheworld]

I'd be lost! [At least until he found Katara. But, for the purposes of this fun game.] But luckily, I still got my hero, and it's all thanks to not saying too many nice things about how nice and great she is.

[gainedacoupon]

[ She laughs and gives him a playful nudge. ]

I see you have come up with a loophole.

[savedtheworld]

[He giggles and playfully shrugs at that.]

I'm the Avatar. I have to be able to think outside the box!

[gainedacoupon]

I suppose you do make an excellent point there. I bet to solve a lot of problems you have to think on your feet.

[savedtheworld]

That's right! It's kind of an airbender thing too. And now, it's a sidekick thing!

[gainedacoupon]

Who knew that tactic could be used for so many things!

[savedtheworld]

I know, it can even be used for dancing! There's so many advantages to having fancy feet!
