So, I remember having a ton of fun writing Wan Shi Tong's Uninvited Guests and I've always kinda wanted to continue it, but I can't figure out what the plot would be, so I haven't gotten very far. But I did write one scene that I think is funny, so thought I'd share.
āIāve been wondering something,ā Sokka said as he plopped down next to Zuko, where the Fire Prince was reading a book heād picked up in one of the towns theyād stopped for supplies in. They were about a week into their collective journey to Ba Sing Se and Sokka could safely say that it was fucking weird having Zuko around.
Weird, but not completely terrible. Ish.
Because they were actually nice people, Aang and Katara immediately turned their attention to him. Even Iroh acknowledged him. Zuko, on the other handā¦ well, it wasnāt immediately obvious one way or the other, because he didnāt respond at all.
Sokka frowned, finishing his question, āhow come you were able to bend in the Spirit World before? Like, I thought you couldnāt bend in the Spirit World.ā
Zuko hummed, still not looking away from his book. āThatās true,ā he said eventually, ābut we were in a space between worlds, so the rules of both worlds kind of blurred. I was able to bend ā but it wasnāt like normal bending. Itās ā itās kind ofā¦ if normal firebending is fueled by chi, then there, itās fueled byā¦ well, spirit.ā
āWillpower might, perhaps, be a better way to put it,ā Iroh said with a smile for his nephew.Ā
ā...you devoted your willpower to creating a light? Seriously?ā Color Sokka unimpressed.
āThat kind of makes sense,ā Katara said contrarily. āI mean, when I tried to bend in the mist, I couldnāt. So it makes sense it would require something a little different.ā
āHuh,ā Aang said. āWell, how do you bend with willpower, then?ā
