Chris decided to make himself comfortable in the common room and flipped through the TV channels until he hit on the football playoffs.

"Hey, I didn't stick," he pointed out. "So yeah, it worked out great."

"From the stories I've heard about here, would it really be all that strange is you did stick in a weird position for some reason?"

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

"Or no reason at all. That'd be pretty normal around here, actually."

Katara wrinkled her nose then stopped and unwrinkled it carefully. "In that case, I'm going to be careful about what I do with my face."

"If it happens," Conner said, probably not helping at all, "it'll happen whether you're careful or not. That's just how this place is."

Being from a land that accepted fate, that actually did help Katara. "Then there's no point in worrying about it, I guess," she said. She glanced at the TV. "I think the blue team should win."

"Good thing there's no team in red," Conner teased, "or I'd have to root for them and then you'd throw something at me."

"I'd might just dump water on you," she replied with a laugh.

Conner twitched. Almost imperceptibly, but a twitch nonetheless. "Okay, let's just be glad it doesn't have to come to that?"

"I wouldn't really," she said hastily. "I promise."

"Good." Conner gave her one of his more winning (he thought, at least) smiles. "So far I like you too much for that to ruin it."

She snickered. "Well, not that of course. Something else, maybe."
