[Do you know what a wind user does in the rain? She kicks up one hell of a localized storm just outside the village. She's no waterbender, but she's seeing if she can concentrate enough on those gusts of wind to send the water in whatever direction she deems necessary.

It's not all that productive -- after all, raindrops aren't the best weapon -- but focusing on her control is always good training.

Besides, she's just happy to play in the rain.

Later, she'll be found wandering the village, soaking wet and not going in any particular direction. She might stop in the bakery for something sweet and she'll be popping into Good Spirits a little later for something bracing to drink.

She'll even address the village at large, via an unfiltered message in the journal:]

I love the rain.

[So sue her. She's actually in a good mood.]

I think Regal bakes different things every day, but I don't know. I don't come in here that regularly.

Maybe you should start, yeah?

[markofthebrave]

[Shrug.] Maybe. But then what would I do for special occasions when I don't feel like baking?

[Can't have her house getting used to this.]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Drag people to Seventh Heaven instead?

[markofthebrave]

[Cooking and baking - two different things.

But Temari's in too good of a mood for Katara to bring this up.]

Maybe. [Pause.] You seem like you're in a good mood today.

Good weather. [Shrug.] Good food. [And no one messing with her. It's amazing.]

[markofthebrave]

Good. [She's glad you get a day like that.] I hope you keep enjoying it.

[And now to select a bribe for her brother and dessert tonight from the bakery...]

[Temari completely intends to enjoy it to its fullest; she's thinking days like this don't come along that often, so she'll live them when they come.]

Have you tried the eclairs? [She sees you looking at things, Katara.]

[markofthebrave]

Eclairs? [Too many sweet things in this place. She's usually lost.]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

[Temari turns toward the array of pastries and chooses an eclair, then tears it in half to show off the filling.] It's a different kind of pastry than the bear claw; not as sweet. I stopped in for these before I tried the new thing.

[markofthebrave]

I guess I could pick up a few of those too. [But first she is selecting a nice blueberry muffin, because she knows her bribes.]

I'm not planning anything big, but things manage to get eaten pretty quickly at our house.

[Oh, does she know how that goes.] Lot of people, or just a few insatiable stomachs?
