Subaki: Haaah! Ahaah!
(Subaki leaves)
Avatar: Hmm? You train so vigorously, Subaki.
Subaki: Ah, Lord Avatar. What brings you here today? Were you attempting to learn some of my dynamic combat techniques?
Avatar: No, Subaki, I just so happened to see you training. I didn't mean to interrupt.
Subaki: No need to apologize! Please, feel free to sit down and watch, if you like. My form with weapons is second to none, after all. Perhaps one of my techniques will prove useful to you in the battlefield someday.
Avatar: It's certainly possible. I wish I had your dexterity as a fighter. Every movement you make is so assured.
Subaki: In that case, why not spar with me? There is no better way to learn and improve.
Avatar: Really? Would you mind?
Subaki: Of course not! I would do anything in my power to aid Lady Sakura's brother! Besides, I've mastered every class of weapon. Reacting to your moves shouldn't prove overly difficult for me. *grumble*
Avatar: Umm? Subaki? Did you hear something?
Subaki: N-no, not at all! You must be imagining things, Lord Avatar... *gggrrroooowwwwlllll*
Avatar: Wait! There it is again! Goodness, what is that sound?
Subaki: It was nothing!
Avatar: Subaki... Was that your stomach growling?
Subaki: Of course not. Don't be ridiculous.
Avatar: Subaki, it's OK. You're just hungry! I'm sorry it took me a moment to understand. Why don't we go get a bite to eat?
Subaki: No, that's not it. You don't understand. I was just practicing making my stomach growl to distract my enemy.
Avatar: Are you sure? Your face is beet red.
Subaki: I'm so humiliated...
Avatar: What? Don't be so dramatic. Everyone's tummy growls from time to time. There's no need to be hard on yourself for something so silly.
Subaki: I've always been able to avoid failure in every task. This is an obvious sign that my focus is beginning to slip! Lord Avatar. May we postpone our sparring session? I need to redouble my efforts. Farewell!
(Subaki leaves)
Avatar: He just ran away. Subaki certainly is hard on himself...

Avatar: Subaki! Are you there, Subaki?
Subaki: *munch* Ah, Lord Avatar! Good afternoon! What's your hurry? *chomp*
Avatar: Ahh! So I see the rumors were true!
Subaki: *om nom nom* What rumors are you referring to exactly?
Avatar: Everyone has been talking about you eating so much! I heard that you've been constantly munching on something wherever you go. So I got a little worried and wanted to come and find you. No offense, but it really seems like you can't stop shoving food in your mouth.
Subaki: Oh, don't be ridiculous. There's no need to trouble yourself over me.
Avatar: But there is! You're my comrade. We need to look out for one another. Does this have anything to do with my overhearing your stomach growling?
Subaki: Wh-what do you mean...?
Avatar: OK, so clearly it does.
Subaki: Listen, this is the only way to make sure that my stomach never growls again. If I'm always eating, I'll never be hungry.
Avatar: Subaki, you can't keep eating like that! It's not healthy. Besides, it will just make you get bigger and bigger. Then you won't be able to train anymore. I know you wouldn't want that to happen.
Subaki: Oh, don't you worry about me. I've already calculated how much food I need to stay in fighting shape.
Avatar: Right... But still, I'm concerned.
Subaki: I never meant to alarm anyone. Listen, if it really bothers you, I'll give up on my new fitness regimen.
Avatar: Good. Trust me, it's for the best.
Subaki: But what do I do now? I'd be horrified if someone ever heard my stomach growl again.
Avatar: Why are you so worried about what other people think of you? No one would ever judge you for something so trivial anyway.
Subaki: I could never talk about that with you, Lord Avatar. Please, excuse me...
(Subaki leaves)
Avatar: There he goes again... I'd probably better follow him to make sure he doesn't get any other crazy ideas.

Avatar: Greetings, Subaki.
Subaki: What is it, Lord Avatar?
Avatar: I figured that you might still be thinking of ways to avoid getting hungry.
Subaki: Yes, I am. The problem is, I'm having a difficult time thinking of another solution.
Avatar: I still think you should relax. You don't need to be upset about your tummy making noises. No one cares.
Subaki: I appreciate your opinion. But I simply cannot let that happen again.
Avatar: Hmm... Fine. Then at least let me help you figure out a new strategy!
Subaki: Huh? What do you mean?
Avatar: If you can't stop worrying about this, I'd love to help you discover a solution. There's no reason to torture yourself by overthinking it.
Subaki: I couldn't possibly ask that of you!
Avatar: I was with you when this all started. I should help you see this problem through to the end.
Subaki: Lord Avatar... Fine. But only because you're so insistent. I-I've never had someone behave like that toward me before.
Avatar: What do you mean?
Subaki: You may not know this about me, but I can't stand to fail in front of people. My goal in life is to achieve perfection in every possible way. Though it's wildly painful to admit, even I sometimes make a mistake. But I never know what to do when that occurs.
Avatar: Really?
Subaki: Yes. But like I said, this very, very rarely happens to me.
Avatar: I know that it's hard to be vulnerable around other people. But I promise, I'm not going to make fun of you. I just want to assist you.
Subaki: I'm no good at getting help when I need it. That's the problem with seeking perfection. You always feel like you have to do everything alone. I have to admit that it feels good to get all of this off my chest.
Avatar: Huh. So that's what this has all been about. You just needed a counselor.
Subaki: Maybe. So, Lord Avatar... Now that you understand me so well, I'm going to count on you for advice.
Avatar: That's fine, Subaki.
Subaki: Great! Let's start brainstorming. I must figure out how to beat my appetite. My newest idea was to eat foods that make you feel really, really full. I brought a bag of snacks, actually. Let me go get them!
(Subaki leaves)
Avatar: Wait up, Subaki! Well, at least he's not so depressed now.
