[ It's been dark for nearly the entire day now. It literally sucks for Mako who's so used to waking up with the sun as it rises and, being a firebender, the sun plays a major part in fueling his bending and energy. Mako's currently got his communication device propped up on his bunched blankets while he's laying there with half his face swallowed up by his pillows. There's a light on in the corner but the darkness outside, to him, is starting to feel like he's suffocating in it. ]

... I'm going to assume this is another stupid curse. [ His words are half-muttered into his pillow, the grumble of discontent that follows inaudible.

Mako exhales heavily and buries his face into the pillows, reaching over to disconnect his device. ]

You okay, Mako?

I must look pretty bad, huh?

Re: video:

Bad enough for concern. Do you need anything?

[firesneeze]

Yeah. It'd be great if you could make the sun come up again. By the way - I don't think I'll be able to make it in.

Wish I could help with the sun. Take whatever time you need, Mako. Though, is it okay to ask why the lack of sun is bothering you?

I'm a firebender. Sun. Energy. [ Lazy hand gesture. ]

My mojo.

Oh. [She...doesn't have that problem. However, they do have one thing in common.] Where I'm from, Firebending is known as 'pyrokinesis'.

[There's a sort of half-smile on her face.] I'm a firebender, too. I hope you feel better, Mako. The sun will be back to it's normal schedule tomorrow.

I hope so.

Pyrokinesis. I've never heard of that.

When Toph was here, she was teaching me how to use it the same way it's done where you and she are from. And for a day, a man named Iroh was here and he was pointing out a few things, too.

I'm curious on what words of wisdom they had to offer.
