[He gets that, and he definitely flinches from it. His emotions are foggy. They always are a little buried. But that tangled mess scares him a little.]
Mm. I hate the things that are happening, the way people are being hurt.
[It's not that at all. He doesn't begrudge Zuko his feelings.]
I think you're right. Hoping one week it will change or get better on its own isn't helping anyone. It won't be different unless we can change it ourselves.
He doesn't like to be called Tiger, because his parents were killed by them.
[That's the lore. Oh, but Zuko doesn't know what a phone is. Here, he'll hand it to him. Plot twist Mob is from like 2012 and he has a flip phone. It probably has like Snake on it.]

Um. Do you think I could tell you my team, and you could tell me yours? I think that's something that can help.
no subject
[ hm... ]
Yeah. We can exchange them, if you want. You talk to your leader a lot?

Did you get another item from home?
no subject
[Those of us who are close friends with Tiger know he prefers to be called Cat because his parents were killed by tigers.
Anyway I didn't decide my item from home until literally just now.]
My phone turned up. It doesn't work, but it has games.

Oh, wait. This is like the PHS, isn't it? For communication.

She is? How do you know that? [You can ask, Mob. You can ask.]
It's a cell phone. [But basically, yeah.] It's from work - please don't break it.
no subject
.... Uh. She called herself something girls do?
[ anyway time to play snake. ]
I won't. But I don't really know how to use it.

[Hmm.]
Oh - you push the buttons and it moves around.
