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.

Asamiiiiii

[earthrhythms]

[ She's excused. Toph isn't really sure what's going on either. ]

Metalbenders did this? Even better!

ohai c:

[paishodown]

Yeah, there's... a whole police force.

[Asami's going to test this first with a bit of obvious information. Everyone around here knows about the metalbending cops.

Unless you're not from around here.]

Hello this makes me very happy

[earthrhythms]

[ A police force? Metalbenders upholding order ... Hmmmm.

Although.

Metalbenders being the bosses of the town. ]

Awesome!

[ Yeah, she's obviously not from around here. ]

heeee I'm glad!

[paishodown]

[Okay, moment of truth.]

You're... not from around here. Are you?

8)

[earthrhythms]

Nope! I have no idea what's going on, but I like it.

[ If this is some kind of vision of the future somehow ... she is very okay with that. ]

[paishodown]

[That's that, then.]

Just so I'm clear. You're saying that you are Toph Beifong?

[Even her mannerisms point to it. She can definitely tell what's going on around her, but... she's not necessarily looking at anything.

What a day.]

[earthrhythms]

Yep! The one and only!

[ She's definitely preening. Obviously she's a big deal here, and you can bet she'll enjoy it. ]

[paishodown]

And you have no idea how you got here?

[She looks mildly concerned, now. By the looks of things, she's perfectly capable of handling herself, even if she's still a kid. The stories she's heard about Chief Beifong...

But still. She has to ask.]

[earthrhythms]

Not a clue. Well, I guess it could be Avatar related somehow. At least that's the best explanation I can come up with, and it's not even really an explanation.

[ So whether it counts or not ... ]

[paishodown]

There has been a lot of trouble with the Spirit World lately. I won't pretend I really know how it all works, but...

[But what?]

Do you have a place to go?

[earthrhythms]

Sometimes I'm not sure the Avatar knows how the Avatar stuff works.

[ She shakes her head. Fondly. ]

Not really. I just got here. Haven't thought about it much.

[paishodown]

That's a good point.

[Not to bad-mouth Korra. Asami never would. But the all this spirit stuff recently is more confusing than any of them would probably like.]

Do... you want to grab something to eat?

[She feels badly, just leaving this kid who's just been dumped in a strange new world to fend for herself. Even if that kid is Toph Beifong.

[earthrhythms]

[ !! Food? You don't even need to ask. ]

Sure! If you're buying.

[ Completely shameless. ]

[paishodown]

Of course.

[She doesn't imagine Toph is going to have any functioning currency with her. Asami nods in the direction of down town and starts that way.]

I'm Asami, by the way.

[earthrhythms]

[ She follows along happily, locking her hands behind her head. ]

Nice to meet you.

So where exactly am I anyway?

[paishodown]

You're in Republic City, the capital of the United Republic of Nations. It was founded by Avatar Aang and Fire Lord Zuko over the Fire colonies in the Earth Kingdom after the war.

[Is explaining all of this going to mess up time and space or something? Hopefully not...]

[earthrhythms]

[ Low whistle. ]

And that really worked?

[paishodown]

It... was pretty rocky. Still is, in a lot of ways.

But the city's still standing, right?

[Kind of.]

[earthrhythms]

[ She stops for a moment to drive one foot a bit harder into the ground, as if she needs to doublecheck. ]

Yeah, looks like it's standing to me.

[paishodown]

[Asami can't help a tiny grin when she sees what Toph is doing. She's seen Lin pull that trick, and she's well aware of where she learned it.]

So, what do you want? We can do takeout noodles, dumplings...

[Because she doubts Toph is a sit-in kind of girl.]

[earthrhythms]

Noodles are always good.
