on voice actor shenanigans

[restorehonour]

So, let me get this straight. First you watch that movie about the guy in green tights and the pirate, because I'm in it. Well, not me -- just a guy who sounds like me. Roof-something? You know, the one with the stupid hair. And those orange pants -- ugh!

Now you're watching this?! I can't even understand most of what that kid says! He's all, 'Yo!' and, 'Jake is in the hizzy!' and... whatever that other stuff means. I can't believe I just said that... He's not me, that girl is not Katara, and my grandfather was not Aang's first Firebending teacher, okay?! And I don't care if he met Stitch, the fact we both know that freaky blue monster is coincidence.

Maybe turning into a dragon would be cool, but... What am I saying? That's not the point! They're actors playing different people! It's like saying the Ember Island Players are the same as the real thing!

--Don't say it.

Not you. Just your clothes.

[restorehonour]

Okay, then we're even. Happy?

[obstinates]

[Considers this.]

Yeah, I guess so.

So... turning into a dragon? Yeah. Sounds cool.

[restorehonour]

[Kiiind of thrown off by the subject change there.]

--Uh, yeah.

[obstinates]

[Thats how we roll in 'crazy Naruto logic world' bro. No hard feelings, plus you mentioned a damn DRAGON. So cool.]

Like a really big one? I've never seen one, but I hung out with some dinosaurs one time, y'know.

[restorehonour]

There are dragons everywhere at one of the games I'm in, but I still haven't met anyone who can turn into one.

...What's a 'dinosaur'?

[obstinates]

It's like a really big lizard. Really big.

I used to fly through space on a ship called the Thor with my friends and we landed on this planet that had dinosaurs everywhere. It was pretty cool, y'know. I even met a talking frog there.

[Said like this is all normal everyday crap.]

[restorehonour]

...Uh, sounds great.

[Because, really, he has no idea what to say to that either.]

[obstinates]

...

[You're kinda a buzz kill like Sasuke. At least you're not psychotic.]

[restorehonour]

[Nope. If you want psychotic, talk to his sister.]

...Well... [aaawkward pause.] I can't beat that, but I went to a planet where people get turned into animals, once.

[obstinates]

[You have his attention.]

Really? Just any sorta animal? Dogs and cats and stuff?

[restorehonour]

No, wild animals. I was a lion, my friend was a bird, and another friend was this wolf-dog thing that wouldn't stop laughing-- [also known as a hyena, but Zuko doesn't have those in his world.] It got old really fast.

[obstinates]

Lion, huh? That's pretty awesome. Did you have the neck hair thing?

[restorehonour]

You mean a mane? Yeah, I did.
