Room 5-04

It was strange to wake up in a room like this, stranger still for him not to recognize...anything. Looking around, Iroh wondered if he was having some kind of very unusual dream. Had it been a plant he'd ingested? No, he didn't think so. At least he couldn't recall having consumed anything like that. Recently. Stroking his chin, he pondered the situation when he happened to notice his attire.

"Oh..."

True it showed off that his very muscular body but it was very immodest! Not at all the sort of thing a man of sixty-four should be wearing. Blinking, he poked at it a bit before getting off the bed and shuffling over to the trunk at the end of the bed. Perhaps the nice kidnappers had managed to find him some clothes?

Well, he could hope!

Hallways

After finding himself some proper clothes in his trunk and getting a little bit adjusted to this place, well as much as one could, Iroh went to explore the area. It wouldn't hurt to get to know his surroundings, even if he couldn't understand them. Everything was just so...advanced! As fascinating as it all was, he had no idea how to deal with it.

Ah well, there was little he could do about that. The best thing to do was find a nice hot cup of tea to help him think.

Now if he could just find the way down to the food area...

He blinked at that. His universe destroyed? That would be...terrible. After all they had done to save their world only to have it destroyed another way. Still, he laughed and covered up his fears rather easily. His brother and niece weren't the only ones clever with lies.

"That is a relief! It will ease my aging heart."

[lightofhumanity]

chaos had lived amongst humans for about six thousands years. It was hard to hide lies and pain from him, but he smiled and nodded all the same.

"I am glad to hear that. However, if your heart ever gets heavy, do not hesitate to talk to me. I am always happy to help. And..I am sure that a cup of tea will ease it much more than my words. Shall we be off?"

[whenthelotusblooms]

"What a nice young man I have to help me here."

Iroh smiled warmly at him and nodded for him to lead the way. True his heart could be heavy but he felt it best to carry those burdens alone. The world had its own trials and it was time for him to hold onto his own so the world could count on him to listen.

[lightofhumanity]

In his head, chaos sighed. He wasn't sure if he could really be called kind-his reason for existing was anything but, and even though he had helped people, he had made quite a few mistakes and lost quite a few people that were close to him. However..chaos was good at not showing his worry, and simply nodded and started to lead the way up the steps.

"I am glad that I can help you..but I am not a young man. My name is..chaos."

[whenthelotusblooms]

Iroh blinked. Well, he was blinking at both parts because really this looked like a young man and who would name their child Chaos? That didn't make sense at all.

And it was setting a child up for a lifetime of cruelty at school. Simply terrible.

"Chaos?"

[lightofhumanity]

At that, chaos smiled and nodded.

"Yes, chaos. What is your name, if you don't mind my asking?"

[whenthelotusblooms]

"Ah! I failed to introduce myself! My name is Iroh and it is an honor to meet you, my friend."

Chaos was still a strange name but it would be rude to judge a name. So, he decided it best not to and just to smile instead.

[lightofhumanity]

It was the usual tactic chaos used when he thought people were really going to start asking questions about his past and name. It usually worked. As he spoke, chaos moved a little bit up the stairs.

"The pleasure is all mine, Iroh. It is nice to meet you. Now..if you were wanting a cup of tea, you should hurry. The sooner you eat your oatmeal, the sooner you can relax with a nice cup or three."

And, if they didn't have tea leaves, chaos would just grab some from the gardens that the Tower had while Iroh was eating.

[whenthelotusblooms]

"What good news that is!"

He could handle this oatmeal easily enough if it meant getting tea afterward. Smiling brightly, he set off to go get that oatmeal.

In the wrong direction.

[lightofhumanity]

chaos let out a small chuckle as Iroh started to walk in the wrong direction.

"Iroh! Not that way. Over here and up the stairs."
