--eriously? If I have to see that room and walk out that door one more time I think I'm gonna go crazy. What was even the point of sending me back...?

[It's still daylight out when Katara makes this post to the PGC. "Mom's" front door behind her as she heads away from the building. She addresses the gear much more politely.]

Hi, my name is Katara. If you know or remember me and you're here in New Bark Town, meet me by the town's exit. I know I'm not the only one that just showed up here, and I've already met one person from home.

The offer goes for anyone that's new here that might want some help figuring things out, too, even if we haven't met yet.

1/? see, you can have all my spams today!

[usedwrench]

[That voice...]

2/? I'M NOT READY FOR THESE FEELS, OMGOSH

[usedwrench]

[AND THAT NAME!]

3/?

[usedwrench]

[Nope. Winry stops before she takes a look at the screen. What if it's not her? There could be some other Katara, who just happens to have the same voice too and you know, maybe she's wrong about the voice (like hell she'd ever be, but...) or maybe she's dreaming the whole thing somehow. She wouldn't be too surprised by such dream.

But, how is she going to find out if she doesn't see her with her own eyes?]

4/?

[usedwrench]

[Soooooo, the voice came from this post right here?]

5/?

[usedwrench]

[...Just a sec. Winry is trying to believe her eyes here.]

6/?

[usedwrench]

[...and she's kind of just staring at first. Pinching herself. She's awake? Maybe?]

7/?

[usedwrench]

[Nope, not dreaming, which just means that... She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!]

8/? --- maybe done soon, at least I hope so for the sake of this post

[usedwrench]

[Okay, let's try to say something here, shall we? YES! She'll save you from the usual Call before you arrive - yelling, because reasons.]

...W--

[...well, that went so well...]

9/?

[usedwrench]

[...Okay, fair warning? This girl is about to cry.]

10/11

[usedwrench]

[...Which is okay, because tears of joy are always allowed! 3, 2, 1...]

...Welcome back...

11/11 :| Not sorry about the wall. Nope. Not at all. Walls are nice.

[usedwrench]

[Nope, can't stop them. She thought she'd never see you again.]

S-S-Stop making a girl cry, dummy!

[It just means that she's the happiest girl ever to see you?]

[usedwatergun]

[She is

very surprised and VERY happy

to hear that voice, but as she hits reply to initiate the conversation Winry's tears take her by surprise and give her pause.

For a moment she looks really guilty, because for her no time has really passed since she went home and came back, and from when she was here last and saw Winry and now.]

[usedwatergun]

Winry...

[A quiet sigh, shutting her eyes for a moment. She's glad. If nothing else at least this place has always allowed her to remember the people who mattered.

She smiles then.]

Sorry... but thank you... [Ugh now she's crying too. Tears of joy, though. TEARS OF JOY. ALL MY JOY.] I'm happy to see you again, too.

[beforethedarkness]

You came back and you remember this place?

[INTEREST PIQUED. Also hi, you might have noticed him talking to Korra on her gear earlier, maybe. Regardless this is the first time he's meeting you Katara so... Enjoy.]

[usedwatergun]

That's right. I've been here twice before.

[beforethedarkness]

... When did you disappear? Do you remember that?

Most people don't stick around New Bark Town for long. That Mom lady scares them all off.

*Good point strange girl with chopsticks in her hair wearing a Zephyr Badge as an Earring.*

Hi, you must have been before I arrived, your hair is too cool for me to forget! It is nice to meet you Katara, I'm Imogen.

Video

[usedwatergun]

Tell me about it. She reminds me of someone I used to know. [FACE.]

But I'll stick around for a little and see if anyone needs help. [She smiles then, friendly.

And the chopsticks are definitely cool, hair ornaments are definitely a good look. And she likes that she got creative with her badges, maybe she'll have to think of something interesting to do with hers too, like a bracelet or belt or something.]

Nice to meet you too, Imogen, and thank you. Yours too. I like what you've done with the badge. Last time I was here was about six months ago, I think.

Video

[for_realsies]

I kinda liked her, she's like nobody I met before.

But I also like the music.

*Imogen is weird that way. Her other badge is on a hairstick, her Hive badge.*

Thank you. *Polite curtsy.* I haven't figured out where to put all my badges, but I'll worry about it when I have more than two. And that would explain it, I've been around since November.

[Envy very nearly doubletakes when he sees Katara on the network; it's been a while. And he's just the tiniest bit glad to see her back with all her memories. He's lost enough people recently that anyone coming back is a good thing.]

[And, well, he's running out of people who are actually fun to pester. There's that too.]

Well, look who's back. It's been a while.

[DID YOU MISS THIS SMUG FACE?]

permavideo;

[usedwatergun]

[She will always miss this smug face but she will never admit it except for when she does when they meet up on space ships after shit is blown up.

IS THAT ALL YOU GOT ENVY?]

Doesn't seem like it from here at all. I'm touched you care enough to say hello. [Said with a sort of smug-sweetness.]

video

[islandshore]

Not in New Bark Town, but you look kind of familiar...

[Translation: Riku's just being a bit of a troll and teasing her.]

But maybe it's just my imagination.

video

[usedwatergun]

[Quite alright. She'll welcome the trolling if it means familiar faces.]

Maybe, maybe not. I'm kind of getting a little bit of deja-vu myself. How've you been?

[timelymaid]

I don't remember you, but hello, Katara! Welcome back?

[ She hasn't ever spoken to someone who came back with memories, to her knowledge, and this is a fascinating phenomenon. ]

[usedwatergun]

[Oh hey, a new face! And aren't you friendly? Well, she'll welcome new friends as well as old. Why not?] Thank you. I'm actually glad to be back. [Despite how it must have SOUNDED.]
