Perhaps things weren't always this bad. [ One thing she has learned from home is that ignorance and misconceptions can lead people to bad choices. ] Do you know the best place where I can learn the history of this country, Bolin?
[ Maybe. Though he knows that Blanc had fought to separate from Noir in the first place, and he can't imagine that it had been an easy task.
But maybe back then they'd been more willing to abuse magic for their own goals too. ]
Uh. Probably the library. There's a huge one right in the city. We can go together if you want, I... [ Oops. ] I should probably give back the books I borrowed.
Well! Don't you worry about that. Just bring the books and leave the talking to me, I'll sort it all out.
[ Anna starts humming and dancing on the other line, and soon follows it up with a theme song for their adventure. ]

Wait! [ He's still got the hint of laughter in his voice. ] Anna - wait. That was really good, you know.
[ The compliment is genuine, though it might seem forced after the pause and the laughter. That reaction had been more out of surprise than anything else, he's never met a character like Anna. ]
You're really good. I'm glad we met, and that you're okay. [ She's so cheerful and not... cynical... ] I'll catch you later then!
[ Oh my gosh, she doesn't even know how to hang up, instead she just strangles her Carrier as she listens to all these kind compliments she wasn't prepared for. Her laughter is maniacal because she's still embarrassed after trying to sound cool. ]

The second part of what Bolin said leaves her a little horrified though. ]
...Wait, how long are they overdue?
