What is wrong with this-- ugh! [Random pushing of buttons and then the video comes on. You all see Katara in her sleepless glory - dark bags under her eyes, eyebrows furrowed and hair disheveled.] If you don't want to cooperate, fine!

[She throws the device on her bed when she storms off.]I just knew it! This place is

[ Tyr has never been a morning person - or a particularly light sleeper, for that matter - but a combination of his aching outer thigh and Katara's voice coming through his device gets him to wake up.

The image is dark still, with the morning light largely blocked out by his curtains. ]

Katara...? What's wrong? What are you seeing?

[When she hears Tyr's voice, Katara scrambles to her feet again. This time, she successfully picks herself up only to fall back on her bed with a loud oof.]

... Destruction, Tyr. I-- they're everywhere every time I close my eyes.

--Katara! [ Can she really not walk? He knows she hasn't been looking well or acting like herself, but... He doesn't even know how to respond to this. ]

...You need to lay down. Nothing is falling down anymore.

[drizzlinginside]

[She feels dizzy when she does. Her eyes adjust to her device when she picks it up before falling on to her bed. Katara's trying to search for Tyr. Her voice is softer, more fragile.]

Everything seems to every time I... I try to sleep.

[OOC: I AM GOING TO ASSUME that at the end of Jet and Iroh's ongoing log that Jet ended up going to sleep.. somewhere in the tea house, lmao. IF I END UP BEING WRONG I.. apologize to you and Katie now!]

[Jet has to deliberate on whether or not he wants to send a message to her comm device. He'd woken up in pain after a heavy, dreamless sleep, and was on the verge of sleep again, but: honestly? He just can't resist.]

You look about as bad as I feel, Katara. What's eating you?

[It's teasing, mostly, but luckily he's been able to conk out pretty heavily himself. He keeps it to audio now, though his voice is grating, raspy.]

[Audio]

[drizzlinginside]

[OOC: it's okay, hun~ we'll still love you forever and ever! <3]

[Hearing Jet's voice, she turns away. She knows he's somewhat responsible for the burning of the teashop, but her concern for him because of how his voice sounded and how he didn't contact anyone wins over. That, and she can't exactly keep her emotions in check.]

These... visions of destruction. [Her voice comes out soft and almost pained.] Jet, what happened to you? Are you alright?

[Audio]

[hooksword]

I'm fine. Got into a fight with three or four harpies. They tried to carry me off, but hell if I'll let that happen, right?

[His tone is smug, but exhausted. He's not sure how much longer he's going to be able to stay up.]

Just a little tired.

[Audio]

[drizzlinginside]

Go and rest. [Not exactly a command given her state.] You're not injured, are you?

[blastiafreak]

[She almost accuses Katara of being in a bad mood, but any snarky response quickly dies and is replaced with worry. She's never seen Katara like this.]

Hey--Just what are you seeing?

[drizzlinginside]

[Her voice sounds weak. No sleep will really mess with someone's emotions and temper.]

Destruction... I see destruction everywhere. I don't know, I just... I see them and I can't sleep.

video;

[blastiafreak]

[She hears that weakness and her heart sinks a little. It just feels wrong to hear Katara like that.]

You mean...a dream? You know it's not real, right?

video;

[drizzlinginside]

[There's a hint of irritation in her voice now.] I know, but I keep seeing it! It just... won't go away.

[tessenwarrior]

Katara? Is there anything I can do to help?

video

[drizzlinginside]

I'm fine, Suki. [Her voice is mellow.] Is Toph back yet? Or... Momo?

video

[tessenwarrior]

Are you sure?

Um... I haven't checked. [She really want to change subjects right now.]

video

[drizzlinginside]

Yes, I'm sure. [There's a hint of both firmness and irritation in her voice.]

[axeofoath]

[Gremio is always up early, so he's awake enough to see this--and it immediately fills him with worry.]

Katara, what is it? Are you hurt?

video;

[drizzlinginside]

I'm not... I just... [The next few words sounds more irritated than she intended.] ... I can't sleep.

video;

[axeofoath]

[He's unfazed by the irritation--rather, he sympathizes with how she feels and tries to be understanding.] That's terrible! How long has this been happening?

[drizzlinginside]

[Aw, such a caring Mommy, Gremio!] For three nights now. The only explanation is that this is a curse.
