[A small, almost amused noise.]

Trust me, I'm pretty sure you're capable of whatever you set your mind to.

[Possibly to terrifying results.]

[coastal]

[what.... she looks a little flustered at that]

... what gave you that impression....

[even if she doesn’t sound displeased?]

[foodbin]

You immediately went along with my idea to attack the gate with an axe...?

[this is why they were both gryffindor on that chart]

[coastal]

If we couldn’t go under or over, the only option was through.

[SMH]

[foodbin]

Exactly. I like a girl who doesn't take no for an answer.

[coastal]

[ . . . ]

‘No’ is often a stupid answer given by lazy people who don’t want to try, that’s all.

[foodbin]

It's really hard for you to take a compliment, isn't it?

[coastal]

[sdklfjdf

her cheeks start to turn red so

yea]

I-I haven’t done anything to deserve it!

[foodbin]

I'd ask what it would take for you to think you'd earned it, but I'm guessing the answer would be getting everyone out of here safely.

[She tilts her head.]

[coastal]

... everything leads to that.

[there’s a frown]

I’ve already been failing... but if we can’t accomplish that, then I find it difficult to rest.

[foodbin]

[After a moment:]

...If you've been failing, that means everyone else has been.

[coastal]

[ . . . ]

Others won’t take the responsibility for themselves.

They don’t have to.

[foodbin]

But that doesn't mean you should feel like you've failed if you're taking responsibility for over thirty people.

[coastal]

[there’s a frown at that]

Normally far more are under my jurisdiction, you know...

[she’s 17 it’s cool]

[foodbin]

...What?

[what the fuck]

[coastal]

[she frowns]

My name is Lili An, and I’m the daughter of the Head of the Water Tribe.

That means all within my tribe’s territory are my responsibility, and are under my care. Their well-being is tied to my performance.

To be able to protect thirty people... I should be able to do that much....

[foodbin]

[...]

So, uh, I have a few questions.

[coastal]

I have no reason to stop you from asking them.

[foodbin]

I mean, not to understate your importance or anything, but aren't they technically the head of your tribe's responsibility...? I don't know what kind of government you have or anything, but there are usually age limits before you can hold office where I'm from.

[coastal]

My father is useless and will led our lands fall into decay before he takes action.

[PRETTY STUBBORNLY]

[foodbin]

Oh. Well, that answers another one of my questions.

[But, hm.]

So he just lets you do what you want, or do people just listen to you despite him?

[coastal]

[well.]

.... I suppose it depends....

I was banished from the capitol, after all.

[foodbin]

[blinks]

You really have to stop saying these things so casually.

[coastal]

They happened....

[WHAT ELSE IS SHE SUPPOSED TO DO]

[foodbin]

I know, but I feel like they're probably a bigger deal than you're making them sound.
