"Yes, some things," Fuyumi said, "I grew up in the Si Wong desert, in the Earth Kingdom. I can't go back there now- it's filled with Iron Eye bases and labs. Even if I could, there's nothing there for me...my tribe was 'relocated' to the cities- mostly Ba Sing Se- so the Eye could keep better watch on them. I haven't seen my mother in four years. I don't even know if she's okay because of all the uprisings going on in some of their parts of Ba Sing Se. The Eye doesn't protect, it just watches."
She smiled a little sadly, "Her name's Shula. She's not my real mother, she adopted me when I turned up in the desert. But I barely remember anything from before then and she's the only family I've ever had. I miss her."
After thinking a moment more, she added, "And I guess I lost my shot at a better future. But we've all lost that. Even the Eye's shadows."

(SINGE!!!! hi i'm just really happy to see another member here xD it's felt kind of isolated the last two weeks lol)
Fuyumi still wasn't sure how to respond, "Sure. I mean, thanks for listening to me too. I've never really talked to anyone about where I grew up." Talking about it made the empty feeling more insistent. She stayed sitting next to Nate for a while, considering which side she was on- if she even was on a side. Finally, she said, "I...I should probably go wake the others up. We're gonna have to hitch a transport to the scrapyard."

Fuyumi shrugged and took his hand to pull herself up, "It does help. But I think it also just makes me more sad. I don't know. Memories shouldn't all be steeped in sadness, but I guess we live in difficult times."

Fuyumi bit back a sarcastic reply and gave a tight-lipped smile, "I certainly hope so. Now let's go wake those louts, they've been sleeping far too long."

"Nightmares leave you exhausted, I guess." Fuyumi said as she wandered downstairs. She clouted Lee's head, "You. Up. Now. We're heading out!" The men, grumbling and complaining gradually woke up and one of the waiters from upstairs brought them tea. Fuyumi started to consider where they could get a transport.

Fuyumi thought for a moment, "Well...I haven't been here very long. I don't even have a place to live, let alone a vehicle. We don't need anything huge. I'd ask the owner of this place to lend us his truck but he might get in trouble if anyone saw his signs on the windows while we were out there. You want to grab one from the tow lot? No one's ever guarding that place and if a car goes missing it probably won't be reported for a few days."

(I don't know- based on how advanced they were in Legend of Korra I'd guess they're almost on par with our own, but less varied and more heavy-built. Like you wouldn't see a red VW beetle but something along the lines of a truck or a bigger car would exist :3)
Fuyumi nodded, "Of course I'm coming! I can't leave this just on you guys. Let's head out."

(It's okay, I've been getting on less because I've been super busy the past two weeks :/ should calm down next week tho!
Fuyumi probably wants some tiny cute car, she'd just never admit it xD)
"Well, if reckless and dangerous is your definition of fun, I suppose you're right." Fuyumi murmured, breezing out the door and starting down the road, "Nearest tow lot is what, two miles away? We have a lot of walking to do."

"We don't need something 'good'. We need something inconspicuous, sturdy, common, and quiet." Fuyumi noted, "We're trying not to get noticed, and having a fancy car isn't going to help us with that, is it?"

"We'll still have more cover if we go with something less noticeable. Anything that stands out will be easier to chase and easier to find later." Fuyumi argued off-handedly, "Even if they expect something common, there'll be enough common transports around that they'll never know which one is us."

Fuyumi grinned savagely at Nate's muttered curse, "That I am. A killjoy. But a practical one." They had to be about halfway there. She turned a corner- they'd be less noticeable in the back-alleys.
