[The video shows a tall, long-haired man in a slightly tattered but fancy robe who appears to be a bit confused by how this thing actually works.]

It's not the best time for introductions, is it? But, I have to do it sometime. It's only polite.

[He doesn't bother locking it from his rival court - he was never one to hide his face from potential enemies. In fact, the more everyone could see of him, the better. He liked attention like that.]

I am Councilman Tarrlok, Representative of the Northern Water Tribe in Republic City.

[...A title he's pretty sure has been revoked by now, but he likes using it and most of the people he's already met have never even heard of Republic City and won't dispute his claim to a seat on the council.]

While I can't say I appreciate being kidnapped, I understand that war is difficult and I'll do my best to aid in the situation. If you ever need any help, let me know.

[That was only partly out of genuine concern, it was also partly to make himself look good and partly because he didn't have anything better to go back home to so he may as well try to be useful here.]

[ wow, you don't like being kidnapped? wow. WOW. it's almost like... being kidnapped sucks or something! ]

Not fond of being kidnapped? I thought that was kinda your thing, Councilman.

That and ordering arrests under false pretenses.

[ NEVER MIND THAT... you should be... something. logically, he knows time, and maybe even death doesn't always apply like it should here, but... tarrlok stirs old wounds, and its with a certain level of apprehension, knowing he is probably in the weaker position here, that puts salt in his words. ]

That would make me a fan of kidnapping. Not of being kidnapped.

[Sheesh teenagers today. Go to school or something.]

But I don't plan on making a regular habit of that, anyways.

You're really trying to save face on a technicality?

They're both felonies.

[ IT DOESN'T MATTER IF IT'S NOT A HABIT the point is it was done ok. you're just lucky mako wasn't mr officer back then.

but he's got handcuffs now, so. don't try that shit again. ]

I'll have to look into how felony law applies across realms. I'll get back to you on that one.

[He's pretty sure there's a statute of limitations on arresting someone for crimes that happened on a different world.

You're all really, really lucky that Tarrlok wasn't alive to help write spirit world related laws.]

Don't bother, I've already looked into 'em.

[ going to the library is awesome. still, though mako's holding a conversation, he's also not looking to actively help tarrlok out either. ]

But if you're serious about "helping", then reading up on everything else might be better.

I plan on it. Knowledge is a powerful resource on its own.

[Which is good seeing as his bending is gone.]
