[ Hey, these are just things that happen to everyone. Waking up with wings in unknown barrier-surrounded nature, finding one of your children playing in the fountain perfectly at ease and getting the majority of your information from her. Very fast-paced, quite nonsensical seeming information at that.

Luceti, thus far, could not make any less sense. This probably shows on his face. Which, depending on Luceti citizens' art recognition skills, may be somewhat familiar. The odds are... what they are.

Tenzin is grateful for the little communications crash-course Ikki so happily provided, though. He passes on writing out a message in pink marker, though. The journal will catch the end of this conversation before he diverts attention to the pages again. Clearing throat and 3, 2, 1. ]

Jinora, if you can hear this, respond immediately. Korra, Asami, the same applies to you. I've found Ikki- [ If the featured airbending child securely latched onto his neck is anything to go by, of course. And the 'please' after that "same applies to you" is implied, all right. ] I would like to make sure everyone else is all right, and hear about what's happened.

[ You know, to see which elements corroborate with what he heard of Ikki's experiences. Especially regarding who she's been staying with. Which he'll be seeing for himself in person later, of course, once his daughter goes through with all plans to march him to Avatar House like a new pet. So there's that much. ]

[ Aaaa, small child. ]

I am, yes- my name is Tenzin. What's your name?

My name's Vivi! Ikki's one of my best best friends!

[ So it is. He has to give Ikki credit, she could probably make a friend of anyone, anywhere. ]

I see. In that case, it's an honor to meet you.

It's very nice to meet you too, sir. [Oh look, palace manners.]

You must've just got here too, huh? Did Ikki's mama come too? Or her brothers? [Vivi just thinks it would nice for the whole family to be together.]

The rest of our family is waiting for us at home, I'm afraid. Having someone to go back to can be very important, though, of course.

Oh. [Maybe sounding a little disappointed. She would've like to meet Ikki's mama and baby brother too. And even Meelo.]

You're an airbender too, right? I wanted Ikki to teach me how, but she says you have to be born with it like I was born with blue hair.

She's right. Bending is a natural part of someone, like their hair color or their eyes- even their spirit. Though we certainly wouldn't mind seeing more of us in the world somehow.

Oh! And you have an arrow! [Combing through her memory for what Ikki told her that meant.] So you're a...master! [Something like that, anyway.]

...did it hurt to get a tattoo on your head?

[ His smart kid meeting other smart kids. Yes, good. ]

It did. But I had someone who was able to help it feel better very quickly.

Oh! Like that...filly, um. [Ugh, she can never remember that word.] The spirit that heals. [But the filial spirits are only around on Luceti, as far as she knows, so that's probably not right.]

[Besides, there's another, equally important question to ask.]

When Ikki gets an arrow, will she have to be bald too?
