Chapter Text
Ri’nela: Tamtey would’ve wanted us to stop arguing and work together
Nor: Tamtey is probably being tortured by humans right now
Meanwhile Tamtey: 🎵You can travel the world but nothing comes close to the golden coast, but once you party with us, you’ll be falling in love, oooh ~ California girls, we’re unforgettable, Daisy Dukes, bikinis on top, sun kissed- 🎵
Zari: (Vibing)
Wukula: Shut the FUCK UP
Alma: Alright so let’s start off with a simple problem to start off our day. Okay so here’s one. Tamtey has 19 guns and she gives-
Nor: Wait, why does Tamtey have so many guns in the first place?
Tamtey: (Puffs up defensively like a cat) MIND YOUR BUSINESS NOR. WHY YOU WORRYING ABOUT IT?! IT’S MY LIFE! (Throws crumpled paper at him) DAMN
Alma: Are you all done? Alright so let me finish up my problem please. Alright so Tamtey has 19 guns, and gives Telisi six, how many guns will Tamtey have left?
Tamtey: Six! I’m not even giving her one! She ain’t pitching for none of that-HEY TELISI. (Telisi stops dead in her tracks as Tamtey points at her) STEP YOUR ASS BACK
Ri’nela: Where did you even get them?
Tamtey: THE FOREST PROVIDES.
Nor: The forest doesn't provide GUNS.
Ri'nela: We need a careful plan.
Tamtey: I have a plan.
Nor: No you don’t.
Tamtey: I do.
Nor: Your last “plan” involved explosives.
Tamtey: AND IT WORKED.
Nor: HALF THE FOREST WAS ON FIRE.
Tamtey: BUT DID WE WIN?
So’lek: The key to battle is patience and discipline.
Nor: Understood.
Ri’nela: Of course.
Tamtey: What about guns?
So’lek: …
Tamtey:...They can't fight us if they're dead
So’lek: (sighs heavily)
Alma: Tamtey, why is there a knife in the wall?
Young Tamtey: …
Alma: Tamtey.
Young Tamtey: It was like that when I got here.
Young Yuayt: You threw it.
Young Tamtey: YOU CAN’T PROVE THAT.
Tamtey: 🎵 You can travel the world but nothing comes close—🎵
Zari: …this song actually isn't that bad.
Wukula: DON'T ENCOURAGE HER.
Tamtey: Come back to the hometree
Rasi: No
Tamtey: Please?
Rasi: No
Tamtey: Please?
Rasi: No
Tamtey: PLEASE
Rasi: NO
(Later)
Tamtey: Come back to the hometree
So’lek: No
Tamtey: Please?
So’lek: No
Tamtey: Please?
So’lek: No
Tamtey: PLEASE
So’lek: I’m sensing a pattern
Ri'nela: “We must think carefully.”
Nor: “We should gather allies.”
Tamtey: “We should commit crimes.”
Teylan: “What?”
Tamtey: “You heard me”
Alma: Any questions before free time?
Teylan: Yeah didn’t you say there was gonna be a pop quiz today?
Alma: What was that, Teylan?
(Ri’nela, Nor, and Tamtey surround him, Nor grabbing onto his kuru while Tamtey keeps his mouth shut)
Teylan: I didn’t say-NOTHING, I didn’t anything
Ri’nela: I’m driving!
Tamtey: Shotgun!
Teylan: Aw, but you had on the way here-WHOA! (Both Ri’nela and Teylan jump back, startled)
Tamtey: No I found a shotgun! And I want the front seat (Cocks gun)
Young Tamtey: I wish I could hang guys but I gotta go hit the books. (Hits books) Okay let’s hang!
Yung Okni/Teylan/Tamtey: Yeah!
Tamtey: And that’s when we became horribly lost
Ri’nela: Are we lost?
Nor: No
Tamtey: He lied
Nor: Stop it
Tamtey: Who stole my food?! Teylan!
Tamtey: That was me 5 minutes ago, I now realize friendship-
Tamtey: That was me 10 seconds ago, screw it (Kicks down door) TEYLAN!
Alma: There’s only a couple of days left.
(Sarentu kids lift their heads)
Alma: But it’s still school
(All begin to creep toward the door)
Alma: We’re gonna work
(Tamtey peers in from behind the door) Tamtey: Don’t (Closes door)
Priya: I’m in the system. Give me 30 seconds.
Tamtey: You have 10.
Priya: I need 30.
Tamtey: You have 8 now.
Priya: WHY WOULD YOU LOWER IT—
Tamtey: Pressure builds character.
Young Aha’ri: It was clear that a romance was blossoming between them
Young Teylan & Tamtey: NOOOO (Run away from each other)
Young Aha’ri (Calls after them): A romance lasting a lifetime!
Neytiri: My Hometree was destroyed by RDA, my father and sister were killed by them, my husband’s Toruk Makto, I lost my eldest son, I was shot through the shoulder and I rode a thanator
Ronal: I went to battle pregnant and you destroyed my home!
Neytiri: That was RDA!
Ronal: I beg to differ
Varang: Well I turned my whole clan into a cult after a volcano destroyed our home, my mother, and sister died, I killed my father, I’m the first to ride a nightwraith and I was the one who shot you with that arrow!
Tamtey: Amateurs
Ronal: What was that, little girl?
Tamtey: AMATEURS
Tamtey: Had my mom die, was kidnapped, had my sister die, was abused and trained to be a soldier, escaped, was shot at, thrown into battle, stung by a kingslor, pushed off a cliff, almost got blown up, took down several RDA bases, almost got blown up again, had some of my friends die, was kidnapped once again, had one sacrifice themselves for me, got betrayed by one of my friends, watched the other one kill my teacher/mother figure’s avatar after figuring out she betrayed me too, was left behind by said friend, saved a bunch of injured, almost got blown up a third time. Was betrayed by friend who abandoned me when he actually managed to kill my teacher again, did I mention I was was almost blown up three other separate times?
Ronal/Neytiri/Varang:……
Tamtey:…That was jut the first half, get comfortable we’re gonna be here a while
Neytiri: (Turns to Jake) Jake?
Jake: No! We already have four of them!
Varang: I need her in my clan
So’lek & Jake: (Talking about important matters)
Lo’ak (Pops up from behind Jake): ?
Tamtey: (Pops up from behind So’lek): ?
Both: (Silently stare before promptly doing a very exaggerated, complicated handshake)
Tuk: (Confusion)
Kiri: I feel a disturbance
Nor: There’s two of them now?!
Ri’nela: (facepalms, shaking head)
Teylan: Tamtey, do you know that kid?
Spider: Lo’ak do you know her?
Lo’ak: I’m just like you!
Tamtey: I’m just like you!
Lo’ak: You’re just like me!
Tamtey: You’re just like me!
Both: It’s something anyone can see!
So’lek:…
Jake:…..So you have one of those kids too?
Kiri/Tuk/Spider/Nor/Ri’nela/Teylan: What the f-
Tamtey: Bro, you know what I was thinking, bro?
Lo’ak: Hmm?
Tamtey: If your leg get cut off…would it hurt?
Lo’ak: …..Duh!
Tamtey: How though?
Lo’ak: Cause your leg got cut off, fool!
Tamtey: Where you gonna feel the pain?
Lo’ak: In your le- (Realization hits)……
Tamtey: Excatly bro, how you gonna feel the pain in your leg
Both: If your leg is gone!
Tamtey: Bro, I’ve been thinking about this shit all day
Lo’ak:….Where would you feel the pain then?
Tamtey: That’s the point. There ain’t no pain. Once your leg gone, your pain go with it.
Neytiri: You think they’d actually try that?
Rasi: I don’t want to chance it. Keep an eye on them
Kiri/Ri’nela: On it
Priya: I have a plan.
Tamtey: Is it dangerous?
Priya: Extremely.
Tamtey: Perfect.
Okni: You’re not a burden.
Ri’nela: It’s okay to ask for help.
Tamtey: Your feelings matter.
Telisi: Murder is okay.
Tamtey: No-
Tamtey: (To Lo'ak) Watch this, watch this (Throws rock onto RDA base)
(Distant screaming and alarms blaring)
Lo'ak:.....What did you do to them?
Tamtey: Nothing yet! They're being dramatic!
Tamtey: I have a plan.
Teylan: I trust you.
Nor: I don’t.
Ri’nela: I want to. But I know I probably shouldn’t.
Telisi: This is going to end badly.
Yuayt: I’m in.
Yefti: (Silent Concern).....
Okni: Are we running or fighting?
So’lek: Whatever it is, prepare for both.
Rasi: Both is good
