What innocent people?! They're kidnappers! They kidnapped us! Hello?! Did you forget?!
[ He waves his hand in front of his face, turning to face her with his mouth agape. He's being a real brat. Poor Michiru. No good deed goes unpunished. ]
I wouldn't die in outer space — I didn't before! However they got us here, someone knows how to work it! Take that someone hostage and they'll get me back home! If they got us here so quickly, then they can —
[ Something just dawned on him. Something earth-shattering. He hadn't stopped to think we knew that already — how long was he out? He woke up in the crystal forest, so he must have been unconscious for at least some amount of time. How long did it take them to transport him here? He realized mid-sentence that he actually had no inkling whatsoever... With this in mind now — there's no telling those precious 24 hours haven't long since past. If he were spirited away and knocked unconscious as soon as he was, who knows, they could have traveled in space for mere minutes, hours, days — even weeks. He had no recollection of the journey itself. He had no way to gauge the passing of time in comparison to his own world's calendar. He had no idea how much time has actually passed since his feet left Fire Nation ground, what day it'd be at home right now, if the invasion was already over, if the decisive battle between his father and Aang already won... but by whom?
The look of horror at his sudden revelation quickly twisted into a look of white hot rage. He balled up his own fists, letting out an overwhelmed, exasperated, furious, confused, just generally upset growl/scream/groan, and resumed his nervous pacing, balling up fistfuls of hair on either side of his head in abject aggravation. ]
