[Lizzie sounds a little shaky, but relieved. Despite all her talk about wanting to be brave, she's spent 99.9% of all of this hiding out in her room. Being strong is so much harder when you're in a still-new place (that you were kidnapped to, no less) without any of your friends and family around. But hearing from Wan-- one of her new friends-- makes her feel just a little bit better.]
I think... it's going away. Starting to, anyway. I haven't gone outside in a long time.
I've already been outside. I was helping get rid of the fog. The hardest part is over with.
[Especially now that his hands and other injuries had been healed by Katara. Knowing that those powers worked again gave him confidence.]
It's still not completely safe, but I can protect myself. At least long enough to bring you something to eat. I have a couple cans that have pictures of diced fruit on them. It looks like it should taste pretty good.
[Wan hung up and headed out immediately. He only had the two cans, but it would help Lizzie and she wouldn't have to go out for at least three more days just to try and find enough food.
He got there quickly, having run over, and knocked on the doorframe.]
[Wan was actually wearing his summer clothes this time - they were sleeveless and his scarf was no where in sight. It left him a little chilled, but it was better than wearing his now bloodied winter clothes that he was going to have to patch over the bullet hole. This way, he looked like nothing had ever been wrong. Clean, too.]
I'm fine. See. All good.
[Wan said as he entered her building, slipping his lovely, and colorful, plastic backpack off.]
[Wan glanced down at his bag, not understanding how anyone couldn't love it. It was so colorful! And it had roses! And a rainbow! And clouds! And a butterfly!
Of course, he didn't know it was a Lisa Frank thing because writing disappeared in Haven West and he didn't read English anyway. But he liked the bag.]
What's Lisa Frank stuff? Why wouldn't boys like it?
[And what did it have to do with liking his backpack?]
That backpack is Lisa Frank; it's a company. It's made for girls, but it's okay for boys to like it if they want to. I like some things that some people say are for boys-- like the books about Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn.
[Now she's mentally going back to something he said earlier, though.]
[References that Wan had no clue about, so he shrugged. He liked the bag. It was awesome.]
It's north of the town. There's a library there and writing stays in the books. You have to go through the tunnel near the convenience store to get there. There's a lot of monsters in the tunnel, so you shouldn't go alone. If you want, once the fog is completely cleared out, I can take you there. We can cloudwalk the whole way.
[Wan circled a hand in the air and as he did so, his body was moved in a slow, lazy circle, much like a leaf being blown by the wind. A thick, visible cloud formed under his feet, lifting him off the floor of the building about a foot.]
[He wrapped his arms around her loosely, interlocking his fingers as he shut his eyes and focused on the air. Without his hands free to direct the element, it took him a lot more energy and concentration to get the cloud to form. It took a moment before the two of them were lifted off the floor, drifting to one side and then spinning lazily as the air thickened beneath them. It was almost like the two of them were feathers floating across the room as they started drifting higher.
Since she wanted to fly, Wan took her high enough that she could touch the ceiling if she wanted to.]
[And she does reach out and touch the ceiling, hesitantly, almost like she can't believe it's possible. She's seen a lot of amazing things since coming here, but she hasn't done anything amazing. And this is definitely amazing.]
[He grinned, watching her face light up as she reached out to touch the ceiling.]
If it wasn't there, I could go higher than the clouds. But it gets cold when you get that high. And the air isn't as strong either so it's harder to keep the cloud intact.

Date: 2014-06-13 04:54 am (UTC)[The relief in his voice washes out every other emotion, even worry. Lizzie was okay and safe and hadn't been hurt by the fog.]
But you should stay safe until it's all gone. Do you have enough food? I can bring you some food.

This. Basically, it's a way of flying.
Action!
Date: 2014-06-22 05:27 pm (UTC)And I can do that, too?
Action!
Date: 2014-06-22 05:33 pm (UTC)[He shook his head and let himself drop to the ground, dissipating the cloud.]
You can't airbend the way I can. But I can carry you and we can fly through the tunnel really fast. It's pretty fun.
Action!

Date: 2014-06-22 05:47 pm (UTC)[Well it would be better to do it outside, but the fog made that dangerous even if it was starting to dissipate.]
Ah... sure. We could do that in here. Um...
[Wan frowned and then dropped to the floor in a smooth motion to sit cross legged.]
Sit on my lap for this. The ceiling isn't that tall and it'll be easier to get more height for both of us if we're sitting.
Action!
Date: 2014-06-22 05:59 pm (UTC)[She sits down on his lap, pulling her knees up to her chest.]
Ready.

How high can you go if you're outside?
