[Xiao Long Nu is sitting on her bed, staring at her phone thoughtfully. Eventually, she glances up and smiles at the crow.]

I decided. I'm going to call Xiao Bao. I want to know that everyone's ok. I wish I could call Zuko.

[She starts to scroll through her contacts and then looks up again and flaps a hand at the crow]

Oi, why are you still here? Go

Call? You mean... that's a phone?

A working phone?

[He's not sure whether to be gobsmacked more by the phone or the fact that it's working, so he settles for neither]

Uh... any chance it'll work for home phones, too?

'Cause if it will, can I... erm, can I use it?

[wishonastone]

Of course it's a phone! Of course it works for home phones! How can you not know that?

[She waves it at the crow. It's small and silver, with several little jangly charms hanging off it and her contacts in Taiwanese on the screen]

[rialta_fianaise]

Um... where - when - I come from, phones... don't look like that. At all.

Just 'cause 1972's a brave new world doesn't mean we've got tech like something on Doctor Who.

So, can I borrow it some time? I want to... to check up on a friend.

[wishonastone]

1972? That's so weird! You're like an old man!!!

...ehhhh, you can borrow it when I'm done! It's not like I have to worry about phone bills any more.
