[ Part of Allen knew it had been too long since the crew had lost a crewmate. A few months...that seemed like such a long time compared to everyone else's ship- compared to how their ship used to be. So when finds the roster one shorter...he can't make himself feel surprised. It's difficult to feel that way when you've spent most of your life having people taken from you. ]
[He does feel pangs of guilt. He should've tried harder to get to know this Aang. Should have reached out more. But Allen had kept his own walls up and he knew it. Was that really a better option? He...wasn't sure]
[Still, he knows that Aang's friends are probably upset, and worried. They still don't know what happens to people who leave for sure. Regardless of his own feelings about loss, it was his job to look after the crew. And so, he goes first to call up Sokka. Sokka is practically ritualistic about keeping track of things- he knows he didn't miss this.]
