It would be quiiiite the scandal~

But if anyone could do it, it would be you. And besides, he isn't going to be king for very long back home, either. Just until the Earth States can declare a time table for the election. So all you would have had to do was ride it out another.. I dunno. Six months?

[Is he undermining his own point? Probably. Does he realize? No.]

Try a decade.

[ Mako's voice is quiet, a little more serious. He and Wu ran through it once: the number of provinces, the likely timelines for each one, the amount of trouble Gaoling had already caused, what to do with Ba Sing Se.

Wu had slowly wilted through the whole conversation. ]

[Wow, Bo's everything has never slammed through the floor quite so fast. It's paralyzing.]

..what??

[arclightning]

Yeah. We calculated it before we tried to go home before.

[ Mako's voice is soft and serious, his eyes fixed on his pancakes. ]

At least half a year for every province, probably more if he wanted to be really stable. Wu was going to be stuck ruling for a long time.

Oh.. I.. I didn't realize.

[That changes things. He plays with his porridge for a moment. No, he doesn't like that. Back to his resolute decision that being here is for the best.]

Then it double mean what I said. It's Trench City from here on out.
