[The smugness is going to be there for a while. Might as well get used to it.]
Kind of a long story, but pretty much Mr. Flipper here decided to get sick one day and knocked out everyone's powers. Including my bending.
I wasn't just going to let that happen again, so I met a few people -- Mike's brother, Leonardo. And his other brother, Leo. And a way too serious kid named Damian. Decided I'd learn to fight when I didn't have bending around -- or when I'm on wood, like this, and they taught me.
[There's one other name there that she didn't mention: Lin. But while it's not a story she means to withhold from him, it's not one she can readily give. Lin is still an ache -- and not one she's ready to tear open.]
