It feels a little weird to come of age so far from home. Hey, if anyone's listening- do birthdays make you feel awkward here, or is it just another year for you?

I'm not sure whether or not it's something to celebrate, but... still, it can be exciting, right?


[Contrary to the usual tradition of most people, Suki is in the Avatar kitchen today, trying to... make herself a cake. Or rather, a cake she can share with the family at dinner. She wants to know how to cook for her man, after all, and now that she's had a couple of cooking sessions with more experienced bakers, she thought it would be fun to try.

...Someone KATARA HALP should probably supervise, though, before she does something irreversibly unpleasant.]

[blessedbyfarore]

Yeah... it'd be bad coming here in winter, anyway. The New Feather clothes are really thin.

[kyoshi]

That's true... it would be nice if they at least gave us shoes when we arrived.

[blessedbyfarore]

Uh huh - even if it is summer. There's lots of sticks and rocks and stuff in the forest - that's where I arrived.

[kyoshi]

I got off lucky, there- I was at one of the lakes, so Sokka came and brought me back in his boat. I can't imagine walking there with no shoes.

[blessedbyfarore]

Me either! Although my clothes were next to me, actually... when I came back in November, though, they weren't. And it had been snowing.

[kyoshi]

When you came back? Did you get to go home?

[blessedbyfarore]

Oh... sometimes when you come back from kidnappings and stuff, you wear that stuff... [And from deaths, too.]

[kyoshi]

Oh, I see... I wonder if they just have a neverending supply of white clothes in their bases?

[blessedbyfarore]

[Link pauses a little, suddenly picturing rows and rows of white clothing, then laughs.] Maybe! I think they should make winter versions, too.

[kyoshi]

I'd be happier with a few more colours. Though it's kind of convenient, knowing who's a newcomer when the cycle starts back up.

[blessedbyfarore]

Yeah... if you see someone wearing that stuff, you know that you should help them and make sure that other people are taken care of.

[kyoshi]

Though it's just a one-in-three chance that they really need help! It's still good to ask, at least.

[blessedbyfarore]

Uh huh. One of my friends just came back after he was gone for a while, so I guess he didn't need help since he'd been here before.

[kyoshi]

Gone? Was he sent home, or kidnapped?

[blessedbyfarore]

He went home... for a while, he said. Then he came back only a few months later here. Time's weird here, huh?

[kyoshi]

Definitely. The times never seem to match up, even when you're from the same world...

[blessedbyfarore]

Uh huh. I have one friend from my world, and he was here for two years before me, but he got brought here only a few days before I was at home.

[kyoshi]

Yeah... my friends have been here for a long time, and they're from all sorts of different times. It's so confusing.

[blessedbyfarore]

Wow... it kind of must be.

[...Anyway.] How old are you now?

[kyoshi]

I'm sixteen! On my world, that means I'm now an adult.

[blessedbyfarore]

Oh! I thought you were older than me. [Of course, it depends what years you're actually counting.] I'm about to turn nineteen.

[Sort of.]

I wonder when you're an adult in Hyrule? I never found out.

[kyoshi]

Would that friend from your world know? Maybe you can ask.

[blessedbyfarore]

Yeah... maybe. [When he's not annoyed at him.]
