[Oh hey there is someone coming through the trees!
Beat would call out if he could, but as it is he's just going to try throwing a pinecone down.
...and end up angering the squirrels worse. By the time Aang gets closer, he's screaming silently and trying to swat away the squirrels throwing acorns at his head.]
He flails as an acorn hits him square in the face, unable to move since his foot is caught in a hole in the tree - which is, incidentally, the squirrels' den and why they are so angry, but he doesn't know that.
Instead, Beat will just make grand motions at Aang to the effect of: OH GOD, THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL ME, GET ME OUT OF HERE]
[He then perches himself on the nearest tree branch and makes some waving motions to try to calm down the squirrels, while grabbing onto Beat's leg to try to wrest it free.]
Squirrels! We're gonna leave you alone in a minute, I promise! Just let me free him.
[he pushes his free leg up against the trunk of the tree, bracing and trying to help Aang pull it out, but the squirrels are already angry as it is and having big moose feet like Beat's kicking their home doesn't make them any happier. still chattering, they start throwing more acorns from the upper branches of the trees]
!!!!!!
[Beat would be screaming right now, but instead he grabs an acorn out of the air and flings it back.]
[Aang frees one hand to make a swishing motion - using a burst of air to slap Beat's acorn and any other acorns in transit out of the air, leaving a small temporary whirlwind to try to deflect the next wave of acorns, and then he goes back to trying to pull the foot out.]
[Clinging to this branch like a sloth boss, bro. He's thankful for the hand and manages to smile like a dolt up at Aang to express the sentiment. For now he's just hanging there, but he doesn't seem to mind. Instead, he'll start pulling himself up, climbing back up onto the tree limb.]
[oooooooooooooooooooooooooookay! And back up on the branch with Aang's help, Beat wavers for a bit before he gains his balance. Then he turns to Aang and salutes him by way of thanking him.]
[Dude, why does he care so much about the evil rats???
But well, no sense in turning away help. Beat looks up at the squirrels, narrowing his eyes, then sighs and nods. He points down and puts his palms together, asking for Aang's help.]
He stares at the dirt elevator for a moment before he steps on, impressed by that particular move. He thought Neku had a lot of moves with all the pins the kid could carry, but Aang might just give him a run for his money.
Hands on his hips, he looks down at the earthen platform, nodding his head appreciatively. You're pretty awesome, Arrows. Beat's sorry he can't tell you that in person.]
[Don't worry, bro. He feels the sentiment. He then lowers the elevator at a comfortable speed while merely hopping down from the branch himself, beating him down with the advantage of airbending.]
Thanks, and I see! But I still wish slang used more positive words, y'know? Like "Beat, you're a really happy cool guy yourself!" See - doesn't that sound better?

Beat! There you are. Calm down!

He stares at it for a second and then feels Aang tug on his foot again. Right. Focus. After a moment, he pushes with his other foot and]

[With a pop, his shoe comes loose and Beat tumbles back and rolls off the branch, grabbing at it desperately so as not to fall out of the tree.]

[Aang then stumbles along the branch to grab his arm and try to keep him from falling.]

I can help you down safely too, if you want. Then those squirrels can get back to living in peaceful harmony.

[Action]
[And with some quick Earthbending movements, he raises a pillar of earth wide enough for Beat to stand on up to the tree.]
Hop right on, Beat!

[Action]
Thanks, Beat! I think. But I always prefer to think of my skills as happy!

[He writes this and passes it over, grinning]
[Action]
Oh, I get it! They should still say "happy" instead. That way no one gets confused!
[Action]

[Action]
[Action]
Aang, no.
Beat is going to give you slang lessons later because you're a cool kid, you deserve cool speech.
He sighs and then pats Aang on the head. Sure, sure.]
[Action]
Well are you okay now? Do you think you'll need any more help getting back to your place?
[Action]
....
[Beat looks to his left, then to his right and points to his left. That's the way back to the village, right?]
