ᴙ 06 [Action/Written]

[Missions are stupid. They're harrowing and dangerous and only ever give volunteers a glimpse into the world outside the Luceti compound. And Robin's spent a month working in one, providing services for evil people and feeling dirty the entire time.

So naturally there's an experiment when he gets back. Because of course there's an experiment. It's hard to research current events with all the chaos happening everywhere, leaving Robin feeling painfully uninformed in terms of his usual stalking accuracy.

It's customary for Robin to filter things when he uses the journal. It's a tool of their captors, and important to keep as low of a profile as possible when utilizing its services. The problem he hasn't quite realized yet is that the journal has helpfully autocorrected the spelling in his proper names, effectively breaking the filters and leaving his messages open for all to see. It's annoying and something he's having difficulty fixing. How nice to be back in Luceti.]

[(Broken) filter to Aang]
Sorry for cleaving without notice. Hack now. We can lick up your training when you're ready.

[(Broken) filter to Cyborg]
Hey Cubist,
Seems lime you're here. Don't bitter looking for me. Ill be around.

[....Okay, that didn't go well at all. He'll huff and try to make a beeline for Community House 5 instead, sidestepping the chaos overtaking most of town. He might get sidetracked through someone's garden or by colliding into an exceptionally frantic person-running-late, but eventually he'll make it back to his apartment.

He might make a few door-related missteps though. Apologies if he's stepped into your bathroom or out of your bedroom closet.]

[Because these things are obviously related. :|]

I'm sure you can, Aang.

[No but seriously he needs to be sure you don't need to be chained up in a basement.] It's just about the tea, right?

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

The party? Yeah, mostly. But I also want people to bring their own nice hats. And it's also about friendship.

[Action]

[teenwonder]

You've seen more of those hats around?

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

Not the exact same hats, but there's lots of neat ones you can choose from at the item shop. Me and Katara were looking at them the other week! But none of them are as good as this one.

[Action]

[teenwonder]

Maybe... You should take it off for a second. Show off the lining and all that. It's probably excellent quality on the inside too, don't you think?

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

I... you think so? But it's so comfortable around my head. I don't want to feel less comfortable even for a little bit.

[Action]

[teenwonder]

It'll just be a minute! I'd like to see who made it. Maybe find some more where it came from to give out at your party.

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

[He looks back and forth uncertainly and runs his fingers along the brim of his hat.]

Less than a minute.

[Action]

[teenwonder]

Less than a minute is fine. I won't need the full sixty seconds. [Hopefully it'll burn easily. Where's that firebender when you need him?]

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

That's fine, Robin. That's... that's fine, Robin.

[He grips the brim tightly and begins the hints of a lifting motion.

Then he abruptly turns and dashes towards the door.]

[Action]

[teenwonder]

Aang, don't!

[He darts after Aang, trying to grab him in a proper tackle before he can get himself teleported to who-knows-where to cause potentially dangerous mischief.]

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

[Robin's tackle hits Aang as he opens the door... so that they'd both tumble through at the same time.

But to where?]
