Mun is not entirely sure...

 No need to rush these things, when you have lived as long as I have time becomes almost meaningless. 

But yet, as much as I prefer my home in the spirit world, the mortal plane is just as pleasant.

So many opportunities, so many faces to add to my collection...

He can only look at one of us at a time. I can keep him talking, and you can try slowly backing away. I'm used to dealing with him.

[markofthebrave]

[Instinctive response is instinctive.]

No way. I'm not leaving you here.

[givemeyourfaaaaace]

(Did someone mention Kurk? Cause this would be the perfect opportunity to take on the face of your fiance. Because if the implications are right...this is far too rich.)

Beautiful how through all these past lives the cycle repeats itself. The fiance of your past self came to me and your friend seeks me once more.

[markofthebrave]

[...she was beautiful

And the fact that something so beautiful was on this... horrific thing's body made Katara cringe.]

The only thing I'm seeking is a way out of here. What kind of horrible monster are you?! You're a spirit? What purpose do you serve?

[givemeyourfaaaaace]

It's in human nature to misunderstand the workings of spirits. My work is beyond human comprehension.

[markofthebrave]

Funny, because all the other spirits I've met? Seemed to have pretty distinct roles.

[Yeeeah, she's going there.]

[givemeyourfaaaaace]

(Haha no, you're just begging to get your face stolen. Koh's face frowns a bit.)

I am far older than most spirits, child. They would not know of my ways.

[markofthebrave]

...right.

[That sounds like a big fat excuse to her. But you know what? She's not going to make Aang go through the trauma of watching her face get ripped away today, so she's just going to. Stop talking now.]

[savedtheworld]

C'mon, Katara. I don't want to risk both of us against him, and I know I can keep him busy.

Unless... we take turns talking to him while backing away?

[markofthebrave]

[...]

I can do taking turns.

[She wants to smile at him, but, well. Face.]

[savedtheworld]

We can do this, Katara. Just keep your mind calm.

[markofthebrave]

How am I going to keep my mind calm when there's a creepy face-stealing spirit trying to steal my face?

Why is there even a face-stealing spirit?

[savedtheworld]

I don't know! I just know that if he has any purpose, it's not a good one.

You just... can't let him get to you. Just remember. As long as you don't feel anything, he can't do anything you at all.

[markofthebrave]

[...did you seriously just tell Katara not to feel anything?

...well, she starts backing towards the door, at least.]

[savedtheworld]

[He can tell how hard this is for Katara. It probably would have been easier for just Aang to distract Koh.

He makes prudent steps backwards, but is making sure he doesn't get out before Katara.]

[givemeyourfaaaaace]

[Yes, yes, he'll just turn back and...rear a different face before the two expressionless guests.]

Do make sure you come back soon you two.
