[After dropping Korra off for her duties at the Welcome Center, Naga is padding her way through the City, heading back to the Beach House. Her jaw is hinged wide open as she pants to try and keep cool, and her hackles are raised.

Something is very wrong with this place. It's not just the climate, which is too hot for an arctic animal like herself. There is something unnatural going on with the environment and the polar bear dog does not like it. There's too little water. The plants are unhappy. The wild animals she snacks on are fewer in number.

Who, what, and wherefore aren't questions she's capable of asking. All she knows, as she stops by the Fountain to lap up some of the water, is that she Does Not Like This.]

[ooc: Care to run into a cranky dehydrated polar bear dog? You've got options!

option a: run into Naga anywhere in the City!
option b: run into Naga and Korra in the evening when Naga picks Korra up again]

[ He tries not to squirm much or grimace too visibly when she does lick him, her tongue catching the entire side of his face not the most pleasant of feelings.

Awkwardly Zuko pats her on the snout while at the same time trying to gently push her face back out of his bubble. ]

Hi back at you. You must be waiting for Korra if you're out here. Right?

[anatural]

[She nudges his shoulder and then backs off. She doesn't answer his question -- doesn't even understand it -- but the topic of discussion shows up soon enough.]

Hey Zuko! What are you doing out here?

[scalded]

I was checking the area. Uh. For trees.

[ Frowns to himself. ]

What about you?

[anatural]

[Checking the area....for trees. Korra looks at him like he's crazy. Because he kind of is.]

I'm just getting off of work at the Welcome Center.

[scalded]

Naga waits for you to be finished like this every day?

[anatural]

Yeah? It's kind of a long distance to walk with this. [She holds up her cane.]
