[It's moving day.

It took her a while to think about it, and another while to really decide, but after more than enough talking to herself on the matter, Raven is moving out of building two and into an empty room in Leon's house. Maybe they aren't family anymore; it doesn't matter, Raven is sick of living so completely alone, with an empty floor and emptiness all above her, too.

Maybe she isn't so thrilled to have Sokka and Ikki's noisy house as close neighbors...but maybe she's also kind of glad for it. For the closeness of people she can pretend to teeter on the edge of trusting. Kyle will also be closer to Soren and she thinks that'll do her good.

She didn't think to warn Leon of any of this beyond a short message this morning, so at least the first part of her day involves a long walk carrying a few packed boxes. Kyle follows along behind, half-carrying a drawstring bag of things - it's not a very heavy bag, she's just being lackluster about it. It is a distance to house 59 and Raven keeps turning around to offer encouragement.]

You like Leon. It'll be okay. [Never mind all of her own private apprehension. As she passes through the plaza she looks at Slash 'n' Crash with a sigh, wondering if they found her note about being busy with moving and coming to work late.

Once Leon's sorted out her moving issues, though, she walks through the smithy door looking...content. Maybe smiling. Depends on who's in there.]

[Aang manages to see her somewhere down the road and runs towards her.]

Raven, hi! That's... a lot of stuff. Let me help you!

[fellpool]

[Leon is surprised by the note that he receives, followed by flustered and a little panicked. Raven was going to move in? Today?

He hurries to look over the rooms. Which one would she want? Should he find out where she was so he could help?

He settles on trying to quickly make sure the house is presentable.]

[Asami is on her way back from the blacksmith, a small box of parts in her arms when she spots Raven heading in the same direction with an armful of...boxes? She didn't know the girl that well, she worked with her sometimes but...she was pretty sure the redhead didn't live right here, did she?]

[She hurries her footsteps to catch up, offering her what she hopes is a friendly smile.]

Raven! Hello! ...Do you live around here now?

[ Ikki spots Raven in the process of moving, and curiously heads in her direction, Soren in tow - and the bird pokemon lands near Kyle, chirping a question, head cocked, though his attentions will shortly switch to Raven.

The airbender's attention is already there, and she's cheerful if confused. ]

Hey, Raven! What're you up to?

[mischiefbreeder]

[Gold happens to encounter Raven sometime during her travel down the road from the community building to the sticks Leon's house. He seems to be on his own for now.]

Moving day, huh?

[markofthewise]

[When Sokka stops Raven on the path towards his house, he can only assume one thing.]

Oh, is this for me? What is it?

[Don't mind him just accepting one of the boxes off the top to start opening it.]
