[Jinora knows this place.

The eleven year-old stands in the snow near a familiar fountain, gathering scattered memories of the City and reconciling them with the last six months spent at home. A lot has happened at home, but how much has happened here? She simultaneously feels that she’s been here very recently and a long time ago. But no, time must have passed here. It was spring or summer when she was here last, and now it’s snowing.

Jinora’s grateful for the warm clothes that she’s wearing. If she had been taken from the temperate Air Temple Island instead of the chilly South Pole, finding herself in a cold, half-remembered world would be far more unpleasant. She’s also grateful for the boxy device that she finds in the folds of her heavy robes. It’s still way more sophisticated than the radios at home, but her fingers remember which buttons to touch to send out an audio message.]


This is Jinora. I don’t know if anyone remembers me, but if you know anyone from Republic City or Air Temple Island or if Korra’s still here, could you tell them I’m here, please? I don’t know how good they are at working these things.

Thank you.

[She returns the device to her robe and waits patiently and calmly for any kind of response. Jinora isn’t afraid of being away from home this time. After getting lost in the spirit world and almost seeing the world end, this is easy.]


[ooc: Jinora will remember her previous time in the City, but it will be a bit foggy. She's six months older and a bit more mature; her app has details for crazy people who are curious!]

I did not meet you before, but welcome back to the City, Jinora.

[She probably should say, 'you're welcome,' but instead there's just a bland look. At least she speaks again at all.]

Yin.

[There's a lack of the kind of response one should expect after such a greeting, but Yin still hasn't quite grasped the need for all of that, 'nice to meet you, too' etiquette.]

Eighteen.

[Yeah, that's something Yin's never even considered doing.]

[Fortunately, Korra's still in the City, or Yin would start explaining ways the City could provide for Jinora based on her age. Instead, she actually asks a question.]


Will you be staying with Korra?
moonlitrequiem: (Down)

[Yin's quiet for a time. She had never really had friends before, but maybe that's what Korra was. Even if.... Well. If she could give Hei something Yin was incapable of, then especially then.]

Yes.
moonlitrequiem: (Straight stare)

[Don't always notice her.... Yin isn't very noticeable either. She's meant to be background noise, and easy to miss. It's part of her job, part of performing efficiently. She shouldn't, even now, especially now, feel much about this, or even be able to compare it to her situation, but she already has.]

Yes.
moonlitrequiem: (Slightly confused)

[Yin's expression might ever so slightly give away her confusion to that. She's quiet for a long stretch once more.]

Like?
moonlitrequiem: (Rest on the piano)

[She goes quiet once more. At one point Yin liked meeting up with Hei. Sharing food with him, even if she no longer ate. Sharing space and silence with him.]

Playing piano.
moonlitrequiem: (Playing Piano)

[Yin takes that to mean does she play ever, so Yin nods her head.]

[Yin is unresponsive for a moment. It doesn't occur to her anyone might want to listen to her perform. Eventually, though, she gives Jinora a nod.]

I can post to the network again.
