♥ 1. Where did you come from? You may not know anyone else on the boat, but you've all got one thing in common; you're headed to Republic City.
♥ 2. It's your first day in Republic City. You might wanna get a job lined up or you'll be living on the streets.
♥ 3. You're the new person in the city. You gotta make some friends, right? Go find someone and strike up a conversation.
♦ 4. Feeling a little crafty? Maybe you could make a quick yuan. Sell information for money or do a little threatening.
♦ 5. Vines. Vines everywhere! They're like the heads of a hydra. What are you going to do about the vines that just invaded your apartment?
♦ 6. Triads, Equalists... thugs in general. Welcome to the aftermath of losing a fight. Are you gonna go find a healer or are you gonna tough it out?
♣ 7. You've got a job. What is it? How are you going to get customers? You better get some soon. More customers equals more money.
♣ 8. You're a bender, right? Then you better practice it. What's that? Oh, a non-bender? You can still find a partner to spar with, right?
♣ 9. It's late. Have a drink at the pub! Get to know one another. Let it all flow freely!
♠ 10. Yeah! You've got a driver's license! Everyone else better watch out...
♠ 11. Entertainment's just rolled on into the city! Watch the ostrich-horses race or the acrobats perform. Or maybe you're one of them!
♠ 12. It's a long line at whatever vendor you're at. Make small talk with nearby civilians or try and haggle the vendor down to a better price.

[ YEAH THAT WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY RUDE. ]

Hey!

[ She kicks the ground, making it suddenly shoot up under him, sending him into the air. Not terribly high, but enough to still smart pretty bad when he lands. ]
nobleofmadness: (calm // talking)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-28 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ and he's knocked right into the air and then crashing into the ground with a subdued "Oof". ]

I see.

[ you see what ]
earthrhythms: (→80)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-28 02:51 pm (UTC)(link)
And I'm very happy for you!

[ She marches over to stand right beside him, putting her hands on her hips. ]

See what?

[ Sits up, and finally takes the note of the girl's eyes... ]


...a lot more than Miss, I would imagine.

No kidding. Took you a while to notice.
nobleofmadness: (sigh // welp)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-28 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Wow she's surprisingly cool about this. ]

You do a fairly good job at not making it your most prominent feature.
earthrhythms: (→52)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-28 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Not like she doesn't know. She jokes about it all the time, okay. It's fun. ]

It's not really that difficult.

And don't call me "Miss." I said I'm Toph.
nobleofmadness: (unbelievable // hold it right there)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-28 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps you do have the soul of a samurai warrior.

[ He has seen grown men cry, go mad and blindly wander into enemy territory after taking an injury to the eyes, okay. Perhaps it's easy when it's all you've ever known, but it's still not something worth dismissing. ]

It's a pleasure, Lady Toph --

[ Wait. Waitwaitwait HOLD EVERYTHING -- ]

The Lady Toph Beifong?

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-28 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Damn straight she has the soul of a warrior! She'll just puff her chest. You bet.

--oh.

WELL.

She smirks. ]


Yes. Yes it is.
nobleofmadness: (it can't be // argue)

...

[ THIS IS ZURA GETTING DOWN ON ONE KNEE IN FRONT OF YOU like some fucking knight from middle ages and bowing his head. ]

It's an honor to meet you. Please accept my apology for the unkind words I offered earlier.

[ YOU'RE SORT OF A CHILDHOOD HERO OK ]

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-28 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Wow. This is amazing.

She waves a hand. ]


It's fine! Really! You couldn't have known.
nobleofmadness: (it can't be // argue)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-29 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
...could I get your autograph?

[ he sounds like he's discussing the matters of life and death tbh ]
earthrhythms: (→21)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-29 08:37 am (UTC)(link)
Uhhh ...

[ She holds up her hands uncertainly, flexing her fingers. ]

Sure ... Just one problem.

I have no idea how to write my name. Or anything at all.

nobleofmadness: (smile // peaceful)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-29 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ Ah, of course. ]

That's alright. Signatures are unreadable anyway. [ sagely ] Just a loopy line would suffice.
earthrhythms: (→29)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-29 10:15 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, well, in that case. Just help me with the aim.
nobleofmadness: (armcrossed // calm)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-29 11:57 am (UTC)(link)
Of course. Thank you, milady.

[ He'll hand her... whatever writing devices are used here, and what feels like an old ragged notebook. The worn label reads "Balance", so (something of) an autograph from Avatar's friend fits it perfectly. ]

[ ...and then he's pulling out a thin book titled something like "Metalbending for dummies" or whatever that he's bought in town apparently. ]


And one for my friend. He's an avid fan of yours.

[ It's not necessarily a lie but he definitely doesn't display his avidness in the way Katsura does... ]
earthrhythms: (→71)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-29 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Just call me Toph. "Milady" is just weird.

[ She settles down on the ground, grabbing the notebook and putting it down in front of her. And then she waits for him to open it up to where he wants her to sign it. ]

Yeah? Maybe we could go find him. I wouldn't mind meeting more fans.
nobleofmadness: (it can't be // argue)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-30 09:58 am (UTC)(link)
But it would be disrespectful to address someone as amazing without the proper honorifics!

[ He sounds mildly scandalized. Nonetheless, he'll turn the book to wherever he wants the autograph while at it. Time's-a-wastin. ]
earthrhythms: (→21)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-30 12:10 pm (UTC)(link)
If I tell you not to, isn't it disrespectful to do it?

[ It's quite obvious she hasn't used a pen or anything like that in her entire life, but she manages to make something like a circle, and then she hands the book back to Katsura and grabs the other one. ]
nobleofmadness: (sigh // welp)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-09-30 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
...you do have a point. What a conundrum! How can I possibly figure this out?

[ opens the other one too wow Toph-dono you're so great ]

As for my friend... well, he's hardly a sight for sore eyes... if you pardon the expression...

[ he's trash unworthy of your presence ]
earthrhythms: (→73)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-09-30 05:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Gintoki is offended because he's an earthbending prodigy and has every right to meet the legendary Toph Beifong!!

She snickers at the expression, so it's definitely pardoned, and does the same thing in this book. ]


I'm sure I can set him right.
nobleofmadness: (unimpressed // serious)

[personal profile] nobleofmadness 2014-10-01 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he may be a prodigy but he's still dirty and unmannered! however now, after meeting the legendary Toph Beifong, Katsura starts suspecting it might just be an earthbender thing. ]

Very well, then. [ courteously ] He will be thrilled.
earthrhythms: (→69)

[personal profile] earthrhythms 2014-10-01 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It's definitely an earthbender thing.

Toph stands up and hands the book to Katsura, and grins. ]


I bet he will.
