Supergirl/ Korra's group

"Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Supergirl, a superhero, cousin of Superman, you might have heard of him, but you can call me Kara. It's not like secret identities matter too much around here," she shrugged. "Anyway, it's nice to meet you, Armando? was it? I have heard a lot about you!"

"No, but that's how you flirt in my word," Kara told Korra after she had spoken to Armani, " Anyway, you seem to know what you are doing, I will follow you!" Supergirl used her superspeed to try to catch Korra on her way to the mushroom grove.

"... Yes, of course."

What was he? Oh, Elec Man could, and would, go on for hours about that, but right now he was growing impatient.

"I am a Robot Master- a mechanical man, in essence. I was designed to control and generate large quantities of electricity," he flourished his hand, crackling with sparks, for effect, "Now, perhaps we could get moving?"

Magic, Spirit World, Korra's Group

Korra would feel an insultingly cheeky presence close to her.

It was Alvin, who seemed to delight in seeing the fantasized hero of this world blushing like a schoolgirl.

No really, he had this stupidly wide grin on his face.

"Maybe it's just me, but I thought one such as yourself would be more...unflappable?"


Science, Elsewhere in the Spirit World

Well, that got Glacius nowhere. He got to the R in where before he gave up.

At the very least, the group was starting to move. He looked towards the group's supposed destination, and the frozen giant took the first few steps, hoping to indicate that he was on board.

Anything was better than just getting lost in the Spirit World.

Republic City Park

"Uncle?!" Both Lin and Sokka yelled out in unison, pointing at each other in surprise. "He's not my uncle!/Am I her uncle?!" Both exclaimed, as the boy was too in shock to properly respond to Chaika's poking and prodding. "Wait a second." Lin muttered, pointing at Atrocitus. "Did you just say To—"

"Though. He said though." The Doctor interrupted, smiling 'kindly' at Lin. "He often does that." Suddenly, he gripped Atrocitus' arm, turning around and bringing him close. " Shut up. Not a single word comes out of your mouth. I won't have a pudding brain like you accidentally erase her from existence because you couldn't stay quiet. " He warned the Red Lantern, his tone and expression never going past calm anger even though the severity of his warning was quite palpable for Atrocitus, each word dripping with an acidic disdain for what he was doing.

"Time travel." The Doctor continued, turning back around and letting go of Atrocitus. "It's confusing."

"How can I be her uncle— wait a second. Are you telling me that Katara and..." Sokka's face slowly morphed inwards as he took in the consequences of Atrocitus' mistake. "EWWWWWWWW! There are a few things a man should never have to think about, and this is one of them!" He yelled out, gripping his head.

"You're not my uncle!" Lin barked, gripping her head similarly as she groaned. "I mean, I did call you uncle— when I was very, very young." She added in to Saikhan, who was trying to hold in a small chuckle. "Spirits, this is confusing." She looked over at Iroh. "I mean, you, I can accept... but you?" She pointed at Sokka. "I was at your—" Her mouth went dry as she trailed off, looking to the side.

"What? At my what?"

"— when you became leader of the Southern Water Tribe." Lin finished, glancing down at Sokka with what could be described as an attempt at a smile. "It was a great moment, kid." She muttered, not able to deal with the fact she never really witnessed one of the most important events in Sokka's life, despite the number of invitations she got.

That tiny lie, however, lit up Sokka's face, as he suddenly puffed up his chest and put his hands on his hips. "It was about time, if you ask me." He said, chuckling to himself, trying to imagine this future event and finding himself yearning more and more for this awesome future. "I guess you can pride yourself in teaching a future leader, eh, Sifu Sam?" He said, jokingly, to the swordsman, instinctively tightening his grip on his sword and on the helmet of the Hakoda, new meaning having been added to them.

The Doctor rolled his eyes not just at this moment, but also at Joseph's inability to understand simple concepts. "Imagine a mathematical equa— no, too hard to understand." He grumbled, mimicking a conveyor belt. "Imagine a factory. Each part of the factory works together to make a product. If you change something in one of those parts, the product changes. These parts are my past... my previous regenerations. I am the product. And if one of the parts is changing, I'm changing." He pointed at himself. "Time is a flexible thing."

"Which explains why you're standing here," Sokka pointed at Lin. "Even though me and Zuko's uncle, people important to your past, are not where we should be."

The Doctor's face suddenly lit up, and he nodded, surprised. "Almost like that." He waved his hand at the two. "It's highly probable the changes caused by your disappearance have not reached this point in the timeline yet. Or you two are just not that important to the development of this future." He rubbed his chin, before shrugging. "Or you two go back home eventually. See? The timeline is flexible- the product is still here but the parts are ever changing."

"If I know a thing or two about factories- and I do-" Varrick butted in, pointing at himself. "-then we should make sure each part operates without a hitch! Which means we need to move our butts out of the open where valuable parts like you guys can't get hurt! Or burned! Or suddenly find themselves in the middle of a surprisingly well-planned accident." He rubbed his chin, chuckling. "Chief, can I count on you to provide some transport?"

"Call up a van." Lin said, snapping her fingers for Saikhan to do as she ordered before pointing at Atrocitus. "I'm placing a squad under your command to watch out for any threats and make everything stays fine. Also, I want to be on the know as to what or who is trying to destroy my city. Can I trust you to do that, Atrocitus?"

Mako watched as Lin just gave a squad to Atrocitus, crossing his arms and mumbling something to himself. Bolin, on the other hand, slowly stopped apologizing to Ryuuko, before quietly moving aside to let her be, figuring that was the best way to really get her to forgive him. Instead, he moved over to Hood and Chaika's side, trying to be ready in case a fight broke out. "Come on, girls, we're all just friends here, right?"

The Doctor's attention was captured by the metalbenders' attempts at removing the TARDIS from the water, as he just stared at it with a rather upset look on his face.

——

"Think we're in the clear." Donna whispered after walking out of that particularly long bush right into one of the park's exits, which lead her and Toph directly into a busy street. As cars drove past them and Donna got a moment to appreciate the bizarre technology, she pulled something out of her pocket and headed over to a nearby stand.

"Got us a map!" She yelled, waving the piece of paper once she got back. "Alright," She opened it up, showing it to Toph. "We have to buy us some time before we get to the complex. Oooh, how about this?" She pointed at a nearby restaurant. "Could get something for us over here."


Spirit World

Maria's Journey

"To watch you..." Icarax roared as he raised his hand, and Maria found herself losing control of her limbs. "... squirm." He laughed, as Maria's hands gripped around her own throat, squeezing the life out of her, the world going black...

... before the air returned to Maria's lungs, and she was sitting in the oasis once more, the hawk pecking at her own wings. If you let your fears take the best of you, you will never achieve a spiritual state. The hawk complained, turning around. I'm starting to think you are a lost cause. Perhaps you are simply doomed to live your life yearning for something you will never achieve... no pleasures of the mortal life will match what we spirits can offer. An existence with an empty hole in your heart shall be your fate...

——

Gavrill and Nerile

Must you use all those foul words? The red spirit bemoaned. Your fears are understandable, however, I do not care for them. He then raised one long hoof and pointed at Nerile, his 'spiritual nature' illuminating her. Why would you leave your partner behind? That is just not acceptable. The red spirit slowly lowered to the ground, turning into a a large, red, four-legged animal with tendrils on his nose and no eyes. Why do you refuse my help? Perhaps this form will ease you into divulging the source of your hatred.

——

Zelda's Group

"Of course, of course. Let's walk." Loki said, as he began the journey by walking down a nearby small hill, heading towards the expansive plains on the distance. So, His voice echoed on Seiga's mind. What do you make of our new friends? I believe we could use them... the malleable nature of this world would make whatever plans we have mind so much easier to execute.

"Perhaps, to make the time go by faster, we should talk about our pasts?" Loki asked out loud.

——

Korra's Group

"Flirting? Are you flirting with me?" The revelation that Armani's actions had an intent behind them somehow helped Korra deal with the situation, as she chuckled, before suddenly attempting to bonk Armani in the head- not too hard, but not too soft. "That was the worst attempt at flirting I have ever seen. Who do you think will fall for that?"

She spun on her heels and pointed at Alvin. "And you better suck up that laughter unless you want some of this!" Korra shook her fist, before pointing at Kara. "I like you! You're sticking close to me. Come on, we don't have a lot of time to lose!" She said, before resuming her journey to the mushroom grove.

"Well, that's that." Asami muttered, before turning the snowmobile back on.

"Hey." Donatello would hear a whisper, and if he looked back, he'd see the Doctor, looking at the sky. "When you look at the stars... what do you see, Donatello?"


Western Air Temple

"What's tellyp—" Aang started asking, but he was interrupted when the Orks started travelling in the direction he pointed towards. "Wait, wait! Let me lead you guys!" He yelled, running in front of the group and walking back to the Air Temple.

"Alright, everyone, stick together." Clara said to the group. "One wrong move and thinks can go south in an instant."

There was a crack, as Bumi had accidentally leaned against a tree that wasn't strong enough to support his weight. Clara just facepalmed as he gave the group an apologetic look.

—Ω—

Armani's peaceful smile turned into an incredulous frown as Korra's face became redder than Thalia's when she was around Apollo.

"Hey, you alright?"

"Is that how y-you guys say hello in your world?"

"Um, no it's in fact—"

"I'm afraid to say 'see ya later' because y-you might start taking off your pants!"

Armani blinked a couple of times. "Why on Earth would I do that? My pants aren't nearly as hot." Plus he HAD learned the hard way to never take his pants off in front of girls.

He reared back slightly as she jammed a finger into his face, staring in distress at it while softly going "uuuh, I don't...I really don't..."

"So, you... put your... shirt back on because this is no place to go around shirtless!"

"On the CONTRARY", he said and starting to sound exasperated, "This is the perfect weather for it, especially since my tunic and coat are too hot for this climate! This is not a hard concept for MOST people!"

She started to go off and Armani could only stare with a slightly slacked jaw, wondering what had just happened.

   "Anyway, it's nice to meet you, Armando? was it? I have heard a lot about you!"   

What? Blue was already taken

He didn't seem to react very much — even to a somewhat silly name like supergirl — as his mind and eyes were still on Korra. He was still leaning backward from when she had jammed a finger into his face. "Yeah...", he said slowly, "A pleasure as well miss Kara, but the last time I checked I was of greek descent, not vaguely mexican. It's Arma—"

   "No, but that's how you flirt in my word,"   

He blinked and cocked his head, returning to a somewhat normal pose. "Flirting? ...The act of trying to coyly attract a mate?" he snorted a little and smiled, rolling his eyes. "Not at all Kara, I—"

"Flirting? Are you flirting with me?"

Then it clicked. "...YOU think I'm flirting with you? Is that why you blushed?! You actually thought that I was like...my lech of an uncle?" The thought was hurting his head.

"That was the worst attempt at flirting I have ever seen. Who do you think will fall for that?"

"No, no you misunderstan—", then she bobbed him on the head despite his protests.

Korra's fist on his head didn't help that, for that matter. His eye twitched as she pulled back. His face too had grown beat red.

"You and everyone else, apparently. I was not flirting...at all! I don't even know how if I wanted to!

He took a deep breath to try and steady himself, and he crossed his arms across his bare chest — as best he could without making the puppy uncomfortable, his aura fluctuating agitatedly (he ignored its attempts to eat his hair...who knows, it might help his split ends problem). "Why is it that a man can't simply and innocently take his heavy top off in front of someone, without the other parties believing that there's something...", his face soured like someone had just fed him a ghost pepper, ...sexual about it? A cigar is just a cigar most of the time. You honestly think people would do that, just go around thinking about such dirty things anytime they're with the opposite sex? No we do not." He w

A beat passed before he turned his red face a little to the side."...I think. Guess I'm not exactly an expert on such strange subjects......Well, I certainly don't."

He had completely forgotten about moving forward in the meantime

Korra's face wrinkled up almost immediately as Armani expressed his surprise at their reaction. "Yeah, sure, like we all need to see your chest." She rolled her eyes, and glared right back at the demigod. "Maybe if you're... eight years old, I don't know, but you're not a little kid anymore! You can't just walk up to a bunch of women, take your shirt off, shove your chest on everyone's face and then complain when we react like normal people do!"

"I mean, granted, maybe I'm a little bit on the edge when it comes to subjects like this— I have to admit I'm not exactly an expert on relationships." Korra added, wiping some non-existent sweat off her face. "But this, this is ridiculous! Are you telling me that if you feel hot in the middle of the park you'll just whip your shirt off no matter who's around you?" She pinched her forehead, sighing. " Spirits, if he says yes I will punch him so hard... "


Western Air Temple

"Why do you talk in that funny voice?" Aang asked, keeping his eyes on the dirt road. "I don't mean to offend you, but... I can barely understand what you're saying, let alone comprehend it! It's like you're garbling up those words on purpose— is that how you really speak?"

Armani glanced down and turned a little to the side defensively. While before he had been merely confused, her own turn to outrage was pulling him in. "P-please, you're acting like I'm some kind of...freakish sight that ruptures your eyes! I look like 90% of what you look like under your own tunic; your discomfort is extremely misplaced. And shoving what onto who? Is that what you call 'doing what naturally feels comfortable and not unexpected', by any chance? Yes, let's NOT make things easier on ourselves in order to preserve the precious illusion that clothing is important in all situations and that we'd fall apart the instant one was without even a piece of it; now, isn't that all just PERFECTLY reasonable."

His face had grown redder, Korra actually managing to make him feel somewhat embarrased. If being surprised by that is what 'normal' people do, then perhaps what's normal isn't what makes sense? Hades, if you were a man you'd probably think nothing of this either", he somewhat diverted from the main argument to vent some frustration on how else the world didn't make sense to him. "Why is it that you girls always seem that much more sensitive to skin? Strip in front of girls, strip in front of guys, I don't see why everyone has to always make the bloody distinction."

Armani closed his jaw for a few seconds at her latter question. He suddenly looked somewhat serene, speculative and pondering instead of irritated deadpan. "...Well, depends" he said, sounding somewhat calmer. "If it's nice out, I would probably just park myself in the shade for a while.". He smiled coyly and gave a slight roll of his head. "Maybe take a nice long drink to go along with it...Taking my shirt off would probably be a last resort." He nodded contently for second, closing his eyes.

"...Would you perhaps like to know the difference between your scenario and mine?"

"Why, I don't think I'd normally be wearing—", he suddenly dropped the sarcastically serene facade, turning back to deadpan, "bloody heavy winter gear in the middle of a trip to the park? In that case, I think it'd be just silly NOT to."

He still wasn't really angry or anything, though, having never really raised his voice yet; just flabberghasted at what a big deal she was making of this.

"I was confused," Maria complained at the red hawk, when she suggested that she was a lost cause. "You put Icarax in Shaft's clothes which didn't make any sense to me."

"I am sorry," Maria calmed down and stated with determination to the red hawk in a serious tone, and waited for whatever the red hawk decided. "I will get over any fear I might have."

Nerile stops for a moment, not appreciating her either her sudden visibility or its implications on her survival. Her sword arm twitches for a second, before her brain can take over and remind her what happened last time she tried to fight the pacifist human heaven.

"She just tried to kill me." she says, simply, before carrying on around the back of the thing. "Fuck off."


"Yeah." said Sam, who'd had much more time and practice at faking a smile, slowly honing it into into a beam that could make a bull cringe at thirty paces. Wrestling the warmth into his voice was a trick he'd learned soon after. "Yeah. Better make sure you put those lessons to good use, eh? But, uh, you hold onto that thought for now, okay? This all looks pretty different to what you told me and Urza. The timline might be flexible, but I just need to hammer it all out, make sure we don't make any time paradoxes too big for our Scottish friend to work out. You know, places to avoid, people not to talk to. You just wait here for now, might be a few things you're not meant to find out yet."

The grin lasted while he was still in range of his pupil, but faded into something less convincing as he rounded on his target. As soon as Lin had finished giving her orders, she'd find herself being led away by the crook of her arm, a journey out of earshot she had about as much chance of resisting as a minnow against the ocean. Once they were away, and assuming she didn't bend his arm into a pretzel, Sam leant in for a few terse whispers.

Sokka had a certain image of him, he knew, but he and it didn't always see eye-to-eye. He'd lived too long not to hear the words people left unsaid.

"Hi, and, uh, sorry. Name's Sam, you saw me next to Sokka over there. I'm kind of his sword instructor, general teacher, you know how these things go. Sifu, he says. Think he's starting to see me like his older brother, how about that?" he chuckled, but it died on his lips, taking the remainder of his smile with it. "How does he go out?"


Zelda's Tour Group, Suddenly Mobile

"Fire up that loud,
Another round of shots,
(Round of shots)
(Round of shots)
Turn down for what?"
-Sun Tzu: The Art of War.

Almost invisible to the rest of the group, stationary through their all their bickering and conversations, there had been a lurking presence. A blur in the rough shape of a man, a patch of the world where light, heat, and scent bent in concealment, lurking in the foliage where it might stay hidden. In truth, this ruse had been unnecessary for some time, every since the deity of the Nordic tribes had made his appearance and the sun had departed for good. But still it waited, letting its comrades flex their guttural tongues, considering the complexities of its situation, filing away what it had learned.

Simply put, they held very little interest for it. There was no obvious challenge to be found amongst them and their quiet squabbles, the machinations of the horned trickster holding value only in the abstract, the academic, the variety of the assembled warriors at most an amusing distraction, rankings of prowess purely theoretical, and even their shared purpose was an illusory goal - then and there, a thing not real, a thing with no bearing. Put simpler, the entity had very specific interests, detailed prerequisites for its attention. It could see none, and so they were beneath its notice.

Put simpler still, its ego blotted them out.

As the group began to move, even the act of concealment became unnecessary, a caution not justified by the audience.

The ruse died somewhere between the squishy female that called itself 'Er-za' and the the blue-haired juvenile Seiga, sex indeterminate, as Wamuu - that being the name it called itself - stepped silently into visibility. A tall thing, blonde, humanoid and undeniably male, every inch of its, no, his olive-skinned body rippling with oiled muscle, barely a silken loincloth and a few sparse ornaments to cover what passed for modesty amongst his race. Around the eyes - and there were no eyes, only hollow lids, fused shut - there was a geometric design in some kind of facepaint, perhaps a tattoo, and a single spiralling horn jutting out of the jewellery on his headcloth.

Without speaking, without so much of an eyeless glance towards his comrades, Wamuu joined the march, trampling the grass beneath his sandals.

"Well, that would depend entirely on what one have planned, but sure, that would likely work. The white-haired one seems to distrust you so much it's comical though."

Matching her pace with that of the group in general, Seiga smiled demurely.

"Well, I'm curious as to the life of this charming one," said Seiga cheerfully, gesturing at Riesbyfe. "No matter how you describe it in advance."

She shot a glance at Wamuu as well, electing not to say anything beyond a thought to Loki.

"Well, well, what do you make of this one? I can practically smell his ego."


Hiding

"Yeah sure, that seems great, it's not like I'm blind or any- oh wait." Toph replied, pointedly looking at the space next to the map to reinforce her statement.

"So, what was it you wanted to show me? Just say it instead of waving stuff in my face."

"Friends, huh?" Nitori said, not really thinking about it. She was busy wondering what Sam had dragged Lin away for.

Taking another look at Sokka, she walked up to him.

"You seem happy about your future," she said. "Congratulations."

Labrys just watched the scene unfolding in the middle of their group from the sidelines. Particularly the part about how Korra was taking the one guy from earlier taking his shirt off as a sign of him hitting on her. She could barely hold back her snickering at the two of them semi-argued over that. Hard to tell they were in a potentially dangerous environment on a quest to save a couple of worlds.

She almost felt sorry for the poor guy, he looked so confused. Maybe it was all an innocent misunderstanding, but it was still pretty hilarious. The gynoid stepped a bit closer, staying behind the demi-god as he tried to explain himself. Carefully, she held up her battle axe and turned it. She gently shifted it over and placed the cold steel of the flat side of the axe against Armani's bare back. She just smirked as she snickered "That bettah?"


Republic City

"Oh good, this one is not a raving lunatic." Jinkuro said as the Doctor strung together sentences that actually made sense. She was worried he would be just like his counterpart and that she'd have to deal with that annoyance all over again. She stood off to the side as the others went about their shenanigans of avoiding time paradoxes or whatever they were talking about. She was getting annoyed at all of this standing around and doing nothing though and it was starting to show.

"Awwww!" Bolin cooed, Chaika's smile promptly sending him into a cute-fueled frenzy. "She's so cute! She's so— wait. That's it." He placed his hands on Chaika's shoulder. "Chaika, I'm Bolin. And you're going to help me apologize to this beautiful woman who was hanging onto a plane I accidentally crashed into the lake!"

Sokka snickered to Nitori, puffing up his chest even more. "Just goes to show you future me is just as awesome as present me." He snapped his fingers. "Plus, this means that we defeat the Fire Nation!... which I already knew it would happen, all odds were pointing at us, anyway."

"Some people would have you believe otherwise." The Doctor muttered to Jinkuro, raising an eyebrow. "What's your story, then?"

Lin let out a yelp at her suddenly being wrestled from her position, and she almost felt inclined towards the idea of hitting the perp so hard in the head he'd think twice before doing anything like this- partly out of previous experiences, partly because his head would most likely have a sizable dent- when said perp introduced himself. "Never heard of you." She deadpanned. "So I'm not exactly tending towards telling you what you want to hear. Even so... if he called you Sifu..." She looked over at Sokka. "Why do you want to know? You seem oddly interested in how your student will die... for a teacher, that is."

——-

Donna winced when Toph revealed her condition, but at the same time she glared at the little girl. "How was I supposed to know?!" She waved her hands, furrowing her brow. "You look like you can see just fine, it's not fair if you trick people and then complain about it."

"... right, right. I was pointing... towards this." She pointed at the map, before adding rather hastily. "It's a restaurant. Says it has an open balcony so we can keep an eye on the apartment complex and sneak in once the police are gone." She smirked a little. "This is great! Almost like a movie."


Spirit World

Maria's Journey

I sensed your deepest fears and gave you the image of one of your more recent fears. The hawk explained, looking down at Maria. Very well. I think part of your failure is mine to blame. Look at yourself. How can I expect you to truly detach yourself from your mortality when you still proudly wear signs of it?

Remove your clothes. The hawk ordered as a couple of sparrows flew close to Maria, carrying a bundle of looser and lighter clothes. These clothes were created by a group of mortals who got the closest to achieving a spiritual state. Perhaps their knowledge will rub off on you.

Zelda's Group

Hm? Loki thought, turning around to watch the newcomer. Almost instantly, he doubled over, laughing out loud like a madman. "Are you— you must be joking!" He chortled in between laughter. "What in Hel is that thing supposed to be? It's... it's... it's utterly ridiculous!" Loki exclaimed, holding onto his staff for support.

——

Gavrill and Nerile

Is that so? The spirit asked, turning to Gavrill as the path Nerile was taking did a seemingly impossible turn right back to the place she was trying to leave. Why is that? Why did you try to kill your partner?

——

Korra's Group

"Stop trying to act all innocent- you're blushing just as much as I am!" Korra yelled back at Armani, her entire face now colored in red. "Wait, are you pulling the 'if you were a man' argument? Spirits, you are!" She gritted her teeth, gripping her own shirt. "That's it! You say you wouldn't be uncomfortable?!"

In a single move, she reached for her own tunic, pulling out its top half and revealing a loose white shirt underneath it. "No use stopping it now— let's see how happy you are when I do the exact same thing as you!" Korra yelled, already pulling her shirt up. "Get a taste of your own medicine!"

"Okay, okay, everyone, stop!" Asami yelled, interrupting Korra's strip moment and holding out her hands. "Guys... I think what we're dealing with here is a case of different standards. Which is totally understandable! Different worlds, different strokes!" She clasped her hands, trying to smile. "Just... can we stop the stripping before this goes to a place we'll never be able to come back from? I seriously don't want to deal with that."


Western Air Temple

"You know, garbling up the words." Aang suddenly puffed up his chest, mimicking Bigrench's way of walking. "That's when ya gork da thunk in ye loike shakk! Or something like that. It's just the monks always told me to speak clearly if you want people to understand your ideas, for language is something that binds us together, no matter what nation or what beliefs we have."

oh okay.

That was basically Joseph's thoughts. So time was a factory, with the cogs and stuff. Now this would be the part where he wondered if space was a shipping industry if he was an incompetent Loony Tunes character rather than the rather dumb shonen protagonist he was.

"... OH! MY! GOD!" He exclaimed. "Does that mean I could bump into my grandpa around here? Or, my mother when she was only twenty?! Or even... my future self?!"

"I had plenty of good reasons. I don't like her, she was there, I'm hungry, I haven't killed anyone in a few hours... also, she's not my partner. We're technically enemies."

Chaika Trabant - Plotting apologies

"...huh?"

Bolin's words shocked Chaika for a couple seconds. Suddenly she was part of a plot to help him apologize to a woman about crashing the plane. She looked at the man, and then at the woman he was trying to apologize to. It didn't seem too difficult, and besides, she probably had to apologize as well. After all, as far as she knew, she was helping pilot the TARDIS when the plane and it collided.

"Will help," the girl nodded, determination on her face. "Must apologize."

Atrocitus felt the Doctor's grip on his arm, which was surprisingly strong for an old man. While he did take in the Galifrey's threat seriously enough, the Red Lantern was clearly was not intimidated. He did realize the slip of tongue he committed, however, and the Doctor managed to salvage the potential crisis. This entire situation in general was grating his nerves to where he was getting sloppy.

Thankfully, revealing the connection between Sokka and Lin was a relatively minor breach compared to the revelation of Toph to Lin. That, and he underestimated how close the two actually were in the past. At least, according the Doctor, the timeline in this universe was flexible enough that his employer's mission here did not cause a powerful paradox just from Toph being here last time nor Sokka being here as well, as long as the former was kept hidden.

This did not mean it was reassuring in the very slightest.

Lin then gave Atrocitus direct command of a squad of officers. The Red Lantern raised an eyebrow, surprised the Police Chief was entrusting him with so much responsibility in such a relatively short time span. "I believe our first course of action heading towards the stadium, so that I can see exactly the full extent of what we may be dealing - "

It was then Sam pulled Lin away for something, interrupting the conversation. The Ryutian growled. Joseph was then screaming nonsense.

"Calm. DOWN," he told Jospeh. "You are in a different universe. Stop panicking."

Ryuko - Republic City Park

Ryuko long since have tuned out all of Bolin's repeated apologies, with her forearm covering her eyes. Once he stopped and went on to chat with the other people of the group, she peeked out from her forearm. "Senketsu, is he finally done?" she whispered over to Senketsu as she peeked. Senketsu closed his eye.    For now. You've got some breathing room...    he answered back as Ryuko got back up and stretched.

"Finally. That guy's more annoying than all of those Club Presidents back home...." she mumbled. "Now, when are we gettin' out of here?" she asked while looking over to the group.


Erza - Zelda's Group

Erza continued her walk over to where the rift was with Zelda and the other members of the group. She ignored Loki and was steadfast in going over and completing the mission, not noticing the sudden appearance of a newcomer in the group. Stopping when Loki burst out in laughter, she turned around and then saw the newcomer, and the look of him. She blankly stared at his appearance.

".....And you are?" was all she said to him.

Estelle looked up at Wammu, then down as she went bright red with embarrassment. That "outfit" was quite a site to behold. Still being polite had never failed her before, and she didn't think it would now. So she gave a small bow to the man still not looking at him directly. "Ah...g-good day to you sir. Will you be joining us?"
