About 2 hours pass as they all calm down and breathe
Flake sits on the floor, next to Kyron
"I don't really know much about you" She tries to open a conversation
"You know enough, bad past, military, yadayada" Kyron shrugs
Flake sighs
"...Alright, what do you wanna know?" Kyron asks
"I don't know...how about the thing at the top of your bucket list?" Flake questions
"Well, I guess it'd be...it's stupid" Kyron shakes his head
"No, go ahead, you've got my interest now" Flake smiles
"Fine, fine," Kyron sighs, "Since I was a kid, I always wanted to own a bar, but something special about the bar is it'd be a carnival and armory, then the idea just blew up after that, turning into a company called "WMYB" or "We Make, You Buy" where we just had a bunch of different stuff ranging from guns to clothing, we'd make it all, that and riding a jetpack" Kyron reveals his secrets
"Oooooooh, you know, Metal had an armory company at one point, but he had to give it away" Flake relates
"Really? Crazy" Kyron seems surprised
"I know, we all stuck with him, though" Flake nods
"You had an armory?" Lite glances at Metal
"...Yeah" Metal hesitates
"Why?" Kyron asks
"Can I say?" Metal looks at Lite
"Sure, yeah" Lite smiles
"Back when me and Lite were kids, we'd look at the night sky every night, every single night, and we'd talk about what we would do when we were older...and she always said she wanted to run an armory, I told her that was cool, of course my dream was to ride an asteroid, but y'know" Metal laughs
"Wow...I didn't know that part" Flake grins
"What about you?" Kyron turns to Flake
"Do I have to saayyyy?" Flake covers her face
"I already told you mine, and you were cool about it, of course I wanna know" Kyron answers
"Okayy, okay...I've always wanted to...be...Avatar...." Flake curls into a ball
"Aang?" Lite questions
".....I said it was stupid" Flake groans
"Those were what those books were?" Yami seems confused
"Yeah....." Flake confirms
"What books?" Metal asks
"Like, these books that used different weapons to have different elements, like water being connected with daggers and fire to swords, they actually showed some cool stuff, come to think of it, dad did a lot of those motions..." Yami reminisces
"Wait, for real?" Flake has a spark light in her eyes
"Yeah, what're you having problems with?" Yami wonders
"I can do the motions and stuff...but I can't get it to work" Flake sighs
"Are you saying the stuff with it?" Yami tries to help
"...Wait, what?" Flake gives a double-take at Yami
"You have to say the stuff with it, like "Water 1" or "Fire 4"" Yami explains
"...HOLY SH!T, I AM AVATAR" Flake shoves her fists in the air
"Hey, maybe I can ride an asteroid after all" Metal chuckles
