Gambitia laughed out loud upon seeing Growly's drawing--this boy was certainly talented, both as a comedian and as an artist. The story behind his drawing was hilarious; Gamb had met Chong and his group once, and while it had been fun for a while she certainly wouldn't want to spend extended periods of time with the people.
Gamb could easily imagine Chong doing such a thing to get out of a cave, it was so like him.

"How cute!" Haruka exclaimed. "Sokka looks so shocked though," she said while giggling.

Amira laughed at the story and admired the picture. Poor Sokka! Ah, but she too had heard of this Chong and his singing and his talent for making up songs at the spur of the moment.

An unrepentant grin was on his face as he looked at Alleluia. "I do indeed. Chong and I go way back." He tilted his head thoughtfully. "I think he still owes me money." But he didn't seem dismayed by this realization, just laughing and shrugging. "But he is a free spirit - a good trait in a nomad, which is something I can readily attest to. That poor boy! I heard he got a kiss from each of them. Maybe it did work though because shortly after the badgermoles appeared and carried them to safety."

Ad leapt up from her comfortable spot on the campfire ground, causing a mysteriously-obtained bowl of popcorn fly up in the air.
"CHONG!!"
She bounded over to the storyteller, and swept him up in a hug, overjoyed to hear about her beloved nomad friend, much to the confusion of Mr. Growly.

Alleluia turned to GUG and beckoned her to take a seat beside her. Then she reached for her plate of food she had set down some time ago. She had nearly forgotten it in the excitement of seeing old friends...
...Wiat, a second.
Alleluia looked down at the empty plate in her hands.
... Who took my fish?! she wondered as she quickly glanced back up and glared around the camp, searching for the culprit.

Yumi sat down beside Para.
"Para, I know you want to write these conspiracy theories. But the Dai Lee are not a force to be reckoned with. Be like normal authors. Write romance novels."
"Romance novels don't get your cousins back, Yumi! I would think you of all people would know this." Para snapped back, referring to her brainwashed cousin. The poor young man had no knowledge of the war and lived in a fantasy world. It was eerie to be around him and Para often found herself avoiding him.
"I know, but..."
"Please stop! You know how important this is! If I can get the Earth King to read it...I can help Ba Sing Se more than anyone has so far! Now, please, Yumi. Shut up before we get into real trouble."

"Whoa!" While being hugged by a strange girl was certainly surprising, he was more pleased than anything. "Settle down there, miss," He said, good humouredly. "While I heartily approve of girls throwing themselves at me, I warn you, I've got a wife already. A mistress too. The road and the wind - and they are both notoriously jealous!" He winked.

"CHONG!"
Gamb heard the shout and looked over to the shout-ee, just in time to see Ad glomp Growly. It was a funny sight--the shocked, surprised expression on Growly's face only made it better. The smile that spread over Growly's face a moment later wasn't nearly as interesting, so Gambitia turned away, searching for more of the delicious fish.
Gamb heard whispering behind her, and turned to see Paraiba conversing with a girl Gamb didn't know. She listened intently, then asked,
"Who're the Dai Li?"

The little bushy tailed creature wobbles around, full of fish. maybe that *twitch* wasn't *twich* a good idea *twitch twitch*.... He looks down at the ground and sees another scrap of fish meat. He forgets what he thought and quickly picks the meat up with both hands and gnaws on it. When it is completely in his mouth, causing his cheeks to puff out, he glances upwards and sees a very angry looking human looking down at him.

I noticed Alle looking around for her lost fish. I looked down at the ground for signs of my little squirrel friend, when I was shocked to see this: Grabbing Alle's arm I whispered, "I think you might want to sit this battle out. They look sorta serious!" and pointed to the squirrels down below us.

Watching the group, Amira shook her head and chuckled. What a bunch they were. But they were happy for the moment in this world of uncertainty.
Curling up against her pack, she let herself get sleepy, remembering she had to be at an important event early the next morning.

Para's eyes widened. Yumi burried her face in her hands.
"They are...they are the cultural protectors of the city. Be careful of what you say here. Do not mention the war, whatever you do. We must keep it a utopia. There is no war here in Ba Sing Se. We are safe here." Yumi smiled eeriely and had the zombie like stare she often had when the Dai Li were mentioned. Para facepalmed herself.
"Yumi, listen to yourself! The Dai Li are awful. They are ruining the city. They are destroying us all. And it is nothing but trouble. They brainwash those who mention the war. And the king is but a fool while we suffer from losing family and he does nothing!" Para snapped, but suddenly regretted what she had said.

Gamb stared at the Para and her friend for minute.
"Okay..."
However, Gamb was quickly distracted by the squirrels that had invaded the campsite.
She paled as she realized she was surrounded by the creatures she hated most.

Ad good-naturedly removed her self from the storyteller's personal bubble. "Ha, well I wouldn't want to get in middle of THAT, would I?" ;D
