Thirty-Fourth Spool of Thread-[Voice/Action]

[Shiki's currently busy moving things around in her shop, rearranging new displays on either side of the door. These displays? Well, they're hats, specifically ones that Molly made before she left and Shiki herself is wearing a new hat instead of her usual one.]

...I always knew that girl was smarter than most. Hope she made it back okay.

Just as a heads up? All Passions now has a whole new line of hats for the summer. Think of this as a PSA.

[She's going to continue derping around for a bit before she'll turn around the sign to read "closed" and get ready to go home. Feel free to either come into the shop before she closes and turns off the lights, or catch her on the way home. Of course, she'll be seeking out a few people when she gets back to House 10 as well...]

[[ooc: I'll keep up with these threads as much as possible for the next few days, but assume that after everything in this post wraps up, Shiki got kidnapped. I'll leave it up to Neku.]

[ He's still wary of this conversation, but -- well, he'd rather tell the story on his own terms than have her go to Neku for answers. Seems like she'll get them one way or another. ]

Nah. I fixed him. It's not gonna happen again.

Would most animals know they'd been brought?

...if you want to. Just a habit to come up this way, sorry.

I don't mind. Lead the way.

Ah...totally not flattering, not gonna lie.

Dressing her like Pikachu would probably get more attention.

I hope not. That's just way too much.

Me and Josh haven't been on great terms, lately. Got in a fight or two. Even if he did get messed up again, I doubt he'd be a danger to anyone but me.

Not really a danger to me, even. Came outta it just fine, see?

Let's do that, then! Do you have any?

[He puts his hair back in the right way.]

Yup, I tell you. Fire Nation guys. No style at all.

[Shiki's never seen you before, Ethan. So really, don't mind her watching out of the corner of her eye, just monitoring him for a few moments. This is new.]

You still got shot though, Mr. H. I don't see how you can just brush it off like it's nothing.

Let me go check in the back. Black extensions, maybe some yellow mittens too. [She's going to head toward the back, motioning for her to follow.]

They might. Animals have heightened senses, they'd probably realize everything sounds and smells different.

[Good Sokka.]

I'm guessing the Fire Nation is some kind of district?

Uh, no. It's a whole nation. Hence the 'nation' part of the name.

[Hey man, it made sense to her.] And next you're going to tell me there's earth, water, and air nations, too.

Yeah yeah. [He waves a hand dismissively.] I know, we're predictable.

Not sure how well I can answer that.

[ Hanekoma isn't even angry over it; that wore off pretty fast, faded to sadness or regret or whatever it is he's dealing with. It's why he's been so determined to avoid the guy, lately. Suffered through one attempt at a civil conversation, and that was enough for him. ]

I should've been expecting it. Should've been able to prevent it, too. It's like -- didn't Phones nearly off you, once, and you still forgave him for it?

What's the reasoning behind that one?

I--that's totally different! Joshua's just...and Neku's...it's just different, okay?

It's just how it is. But mostly it's because there are four types of bending arts and each nation has benders of that type.

Is it? You trusted your partner and now I'm trusting mine.

[ Trying to, at least. It's not easy when Josh doesn't trust him in return. ]

[Opens the door then and leads her inside.]
