Aiden is the first to notice the second boat. If it had contained anyone other than a miserable young girl, he might have warned Jodie away… but he has something of an affinity for miserable young girls. The tether hums with something between an 'all clear' and a 'get over here,' and a minute later, Jodie's little rowboat is pulling up alongside Toph's.

"Hey," Jodie says cautiously. She can tell the kid's having a rough time, and she doesn't want to freak her out. "Are you okay?" Obviously she isn't, but at least this will determine if the girl speaks English.
