Old muse revives after a Plurk convo regarding The Search

[last_dragonrider]

As much as I am loathe to believe it myself, I agree with you. I would like to see just exactly what happened for myself rather than anything. Still... if any of what was said was true... I feel I owe my great grandchildren an apology...

[OOC: On a related note... anyone know where to find icons for this guy? >.>]

[stares in awe because Avatar Roku.]

W-why do you think that, sir?

[last_dragonrider]

I have heard... disappointing things about my granddaughter and her conduct.

Do not let it trouble you, young one.

[bookbender]

Your granddaughter...Princess Ursa?

Because Jenorah's inquiries about Ursa being interrupted is amusing to me...

[last_dragonrider]

[There's a sad smile as he nods. Time to change the subject. After all, can't let her be troubled by his family issues, right?]

From your garb, I'm going to assume you are one of Avatar Aang's grandchildren. No, it's clear. You have the same look in your eyes as he did. It does not take an Avatar to see you and your siblings will be very powerful Airbenders.

Roku...? Is that you? [He's lived through The Promise, so his feelings about Roku are currently Complicated.

The apology part does give him pause. ...That, and he still did miss the old man.]

May I ask exactly... what you're talking about? [He asks sheepishly. Is it about the stance he took about the promise to Zuko, or something else? Aang wants to hear him out.]

[ooc: You can find some icons on piandao.org! And through my friend's old account.]

[last_dragonrider]

There have been... disturbing rumors about how Zuko and Azula's mother acted. If these rumors are true, I feel Zuko and Azula both deserve an apology...

[OOC: Thanks for the tip~]

[savedtheworld]

Their mom...? You mean... that time she traded away her face? [Okay, now he'll be post-The Search on top of that.]

[last_dragonrider]

Among... other things, yes.

[He sighs a bit, sensing Aang's unease.]

Do not trouble yourself, Aang. You have done things no other Avatar has, and I trust your judgement in these dealings implicitly.

[flameoroku]

[Uh...wow. Talking with his past and future self was one thing, but actually talking to himself was kind of like some trippy out of body experience.]

Did we do something? I mean, if it's not about the war... [The sentence came out awkwardly since Roku here hadn't experienced it yet and had only been told.]

[ooc: Because DW left me with mostly angry/shocked old Roku, I made a post with the rest of the icons cause I had few more old Roku icons. o7]

[last_dragonrider]

No, it is nothing we have done... but rather the actions of our granddaughter, Ursa, that are troubling me. I have heard... unsettling rumors.

[OOC: Awesome~! Thanks~! /o/]

[wanjumpahead]

Well... I don't know the circumstances and all, so I must ask. What did you do exactly that caused whatever problem these people had? If you feel like apologizing, then you've got to feel guilty about something, I guess.

[last_dragonrider]

It is nothing I did, but rather the dealings my Granddaughter had with her children. However, as of right now, I am operating on hearsay and rumors. Still... if these rumors have any basis in truth...
