Mundane Is It?
While Seeing Other Worlds Is Certainly An Interesting Proposal I Am Afraid I Must Decline
People In My Own World Need Me
Particularly The Younger Benders At The Temple

...You're Not Even Listening, Are You?

yeah. kanaya?

[he maintains that this is going to continue to be weird. WE'LL SEE.]

huh! what's it like there?

[fashionista_monk]

It Is A Very Lively Community
And When You Are At The Temple There Is Certainly No Shortage Of Pranks

[She looks him over.]

It Is A Little Strange To See You Without Your Arrows Again

[fireflyheir]

hehehe, i bet!

i guess
it's kind of weird seeing you with them! not that i really got to see a lot of you before, but still.
they're pretty nice, actually! they're tattoos, right?

[fashionista_monk]

Yes Though They Do Hold A Certain Amount Of Significance In My Culture
It Is Representative Of Reaching A Certain Mastery Of Airbending

As Far As My History Goes You Were The Youngest Person To Receive His Arrows

[fireflyheir]

airbending? i guess that's pretty much like the windy thing
so that means you're a master. right?

heh! [grinning and maybe preening a little] so, uh. what exactly does doing all that mean?

[fashionista_monk]

It Likely Is Similar From What Karkat From Your Universe Suggested

What It Means Is You Mastered 36 Technique And Invented One Of Your Own

[fireflyheir]

huh. well, in this case i guess the name pretty much does just say it all!

and everyone who becomes a master does that? does that mean the next person has to memorise that one as well?

[fashionista_monk]

Yes Everyone Who Is A Master Does That

Though The Requirements Are Learning The 36 Techniques And Inventing Your Own So They Don't Have To Learn The New Ones Unless They Want To

For Example Yours Is Creating A Compressed Ball Of Air In Your Hands, Jumping In The Air And Bringing It Down Like A Hammer Onto A Target

[fireflyheir]

yeah, that's got to be easier

after all, well, how many masters are there? plus, it sounds sort of like a signature move

oh, huh! probably easier than carrying one around all the time. you guys don't have sylladexes, right? [trying to envision quite how that would work]
