[Appa has been outside the Clinic all week, outside Aang's room to be precise. There's a pile of hay that Sokka has been bringing and Appa just hasn't been eating. He can feel that Aang is still gone, that their connection is still severed and it's killing him. Not physically, mind you; mentally and emotionally.]

[The great beast sighs and brings a foreleg around. He picks up some of the hay and drops it, picks it up and drops it, and then sighs again. He can't always understand what humans mean, so he doesn't understand why they haven't taken care of Aang's body. He also doesn't understand why the body doesn't smell like it's rotting.]

[He's only six, so he only has six years worth of experiences and this is something so new to him. He wants to have a little sky bison tantrum and go knock some buildings over. He wants to go find whoever did this to his Aang and go rough them up (but not kill them; Aang would be upset about that), but he doesn't want to go away from Aang.]

[But then he feels it, very weakly at first and then very strongly. That connection, that life. He jumps up, moving more than he has in days and puts his face up to the window. Aang's chest is moving! He's breathing! He's not really gone!]

[He cries out in happiness as Aang's hand comes up to pull the sheet down so he can see.]

Hey, Appa. [His voice is raspy. He had a lot of healing to do, but it looks like the damage to his throat from being strangled will have to heal up while he's back. He reaches out and bends the wind around Appa's head, petting him from a distance.]

[He uses airbending to pull his PCD over and frowns at it. Whoever killed him will see that he's alive. He doesn't want that. Of all the ways for an Airbender to die, he never even thought of lack of air. And even when he'd been at the risk of drowning, he'd gone into the Avatar state without realizing it.]

[He's not going to hide, as much as he might want to.]

Hey. [Yup, his voice is all raspy.] I'm sorry if I worried anyone, but I'm okay now.

[And he has no clue that he was cut up.]

...Aang?

[video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Hi, Jet. [Little smile.]

[Video]

[waterbends]

Aang! Aang!

[Katara's hair is up; she's halfway through mashing some herbs with a mortar and pestle, some little thing to keep her busy. She seems to be fighting the urge to throw them both to the ground and immediately leave at the sight of him on the video.]

You're awake!

[Video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Ummm... yeah. I'm awake. [He looks a little confused.]

[Can you hear that great crash in another area of the clinic, Aang? Sokka's been waiting for you, buddy! The surprise of seeing Aang alive, even on the PCD screen, forces the warrior to (literally) drop everything. He skids around the corner of the doorway and slides to a halt at the end of the Avatar's bed.]

Aang!!

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

[Oh, he can hear that crash. And he's grinning when Sokka comes running.]

Hi, Sokka. [He rubs at his throat; there's still some bruising left.] What day is it?

[video]

[magicxmarker.livejournal.com]

Dude! Hey, you feeling alright bud?

[He's not going to mention his investigation for the moment, he doesn't want to upset him, so he just gets his excitement and worry out of the way instead.]

[video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Yeah. My throat hurts still, but I feel okay. And my chest is sort of sore. [Which he's just attributing to dying from lack of air.]

[expunger]

Aang. [lkjfsfg.] You still have injuries.

video;

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Yeah, a little. [There's some bruising on his neck still and his throat and chest hurt. But his lungs and chest aren't cut open any more!] But I'll be okay in a couple days.

[Her face is clear and bright relief mixed with the concern that's been there ever since he died.]

Aang! I'm so glad to see you again!

[Video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Hi, Usagi. I'm sorry if I worried you.

[sgtmajorjerk.livejournal.com]

[Kururu doesn't really... smile. At least, not in a non-creepy kind of way. But yet, somehow, he sort of is.]

Pokopenian Aang. Good job on successfully returning to life.

I will hop right over to check on your health.

[Was that... a froggy pun? Yes, it seems to have been one. Either Kururu's in a particularly good mood at the moment or he's going out of his way to try to cheer up the young boy. Maybe a little of both.]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

[Aang laughs a little. Mr. Frog is going to hop over. That's a pun worthy of Sokka!]

Okay, Mr. Frog. And thanks. But I don't think it was me that brought me back to life, so I can't take all the credit.

[video]

[checkmychainyo.livejournal.com]

...Thank goodness. [He sighs. He's glad what everyone's told him about the dead returning back to life is true.]

[video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Hi, Kurapica. I'm sorry if I worried you. [He smiles a bit.]

[onnicomprensivo.livejournal.com]

[ He just sort of stares blankly at the PCD for a long time. He's having trouble absorbing this. After all, he was told that Aang was dead. And there he was- right there. What was this...?! ]

[ Whatever it was, he wasn't complaining. ]

You...!

You're alive! You're okay!? [ He's not going to let on how upset he was. He'd only just met you and he'd thought that maybe you could be friends- and then heard you'd died, just like that. It had reinforced just how scared of this place he was. ]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm alive. People don't stay dead here. Like Zuko died before and he came back. [And he doesn't know Zuko's gone. ;_;]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

[Hi, have your murderer here! Not that you know.]

You certainly had a lot of people worried about you.

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

[That's him, guys! Go after him! If Aang knew, he'd probably try to work to an understanding with him.]

Yeah, I guess I did. [He looks sheepish.]

[video]

[grandtheftbody.livejournal.com]

You're back. [He smiles.] A lot of people were upset, you know. [But not him. :| Nope.]

[video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

[Oh, of course not.]

Yeah, I know. I didn't mean to upset anyone. Of course, I didn't plan on dying, either.

[video]

[hardcorecute.livejournal.com]

Aang! Are you feeling better? Sokka told me you weren't feeling good.

[video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Hi, Bubbles. Yeah, I'm a lot better now.

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

Aang. Welcome back.

You're at the clinc, right? [Because if you're not, she's taking you there right now.]

[Video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

Yeah, I'm here. Someone brought me here. I guess it was Sokka, since he was here when I woke up. [He grins, albeit sheepishly.]

[saucey]

How are you...holding up?

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

I'm okay, Sasuke. I'm sorry if I worried you. [No one has told him about Zuko yet.]

[video]

[bookish-lioness.livejournal.com]

Aang! [She's obviously relieved, and she's obviously full of questions, but she reins in the latter. He's likely exhausted, and more than likely traumatized, and she isn't going to add to that.] It's good to see you!

[video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Hi, Hermione. It's good to see you, too. I'm sorry if I worried you.

[Unohana comes into the room as soon as she feels he's awake.]

Aang-san! Welcome back.

[Offline]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

[He smiles at her.] Hi, Ms. Unohana. Thank you.

[ff_red_turk]

What happened?

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Someone killed me. They strangled me to death.

[hyuugahime]

A-Aang-kun! Y-you're b-back ...!

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm back. I'm sorry if I worried you.

[fanismighter]

[Yup, those are tears in her eyes.]

Aang! You're back!

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Hi, Suki. [He sees those tears.] Oh, don't cry! I'm okay!

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

Aang, it is good to see you again!

[So very, very glad. So many of her friends were worried over his death, as was she.]

How are you feeling?

[Video]

[aangin-loose.livejournal.com]

Hi, Juliet. [He smiles.] I'm feeling okay. My throat's sore and my chest is, but I'm okay.
