[ It's pretty damn weird that they're here, but hey, at least he isn't alone? The surroundings are both familiar and unfamiliar, and he comes up with at least a dozen of possible explanations for it (Industrial revolution? Spirit World? THE FUTURE??) until they run into the... giant monument for Toph's ego. ]

[ Sorry, he's just going to stare at it for a little bit, then hang his head. ]

Oh please, please tell me there's a Sokka statue around here somewhere.

[earthrhythms]

[ SUCH BOISTEROUS LAUGHTER ]

I invented metalbending. What did you do?

[theboomerangguy]

Well, I --

[ He pauses, hand outstretched. Sure, he traveled with the Avatar too, but he didn't exactly teach him anything... sort of forgets about taking down the Firelord's fleet at the moment, but it's not as shiny as metalbending anyway ]

[ FOLDS ARMS SOLEMNLY ]

I will have you know that I have done lots of crucial, important things and I do not appreciate your... implications! That's right!

[earthrhythms]

[ She holds up a finger. ]

Name one thing.

[ Really, she's just being difficult. Sokka's done a lot of important stuff. Attack plans and things. Maybe there is a statue of him somewhere, and with a bit of a look she could find it.

This is fun, though. ]

[theboomerangguy]

[ huffs, then turns to her and points at himself boisterously ]

I'm the idea guy, remember?

[ thinks, then THUMBS UP with a grin. He knows you know, so he'll just start messing around too, because hey. Two can fight the ego battle. ]

And the good looks guy. Can't have a band of heroes without one of those, eh?

[earthrhythms]

You know you can say that as any times as you like and it means nothing to me, right? You could easily just be delusional and I'd never know!

[ Since she can't tell a lie if someone thinks it's truth. ]

[theboomerangguy]

How can you say that?! With this fine fellow in front--

[ --aw crap he did it again. ]

--right. Sorry.

[earthrhythms]

Seriously.

[ She throws her hands out. ]

How do you keep forgetting?

[theboomerangguy]

[ laughs awkwardly and rubs the back of his head? ]

Force of habit?..

[earthrhythms]

[ She shakes her head, and lightly punches Sokka's arm. ]

Come on, let's find your statue.

[ Chances are there is one. ]

[theboomerangguy]

[ He'll put a hand on it, mostly out of reflex since it doesn't even hurt (this time), and look at Toph, Really Touched. ]

...you really think there is one? For real?

[ He never doubted you believe in him! Best friend! ]

[earthrhythms]

Sure! If you're so good looking, why wouldn't they decorate the city with your face?

[ She starts off down the street, hands behind her head. ]

[theboomerangguy]

Oo, good point!

[ He'll just go along, walking beside her and blah blah blah endlessly ]

But, you know, it's not all about the looks. Maybe it's something... subtle. Maybe, when you're up in the air and look down at the city, it looks like my face...

[ subtle like your personality ]

[earthrhythms]

[ She makes a face. ]

That is just really weird.

Sounds like something you'd suggest, and everyone else would turn down.

[theboomerangguy]

Why would they do that? It's a great idea!

[earthrhythms]

Who made you the idea guy again?

[theboomerangguy]

[ Wow Toph. Generating ideas is a complicated job! Some of them will be more popular and/or useful than the others, but they're all new, and that's what matters. ]

Hey, at least I have ideas! How would you decorate a city?

[earthrhythms]

I don't really care how pretty a city is. Doesn't do much for me.

[ A beat. ]

More statues of me wouldn't hurt, though.

[theboomerangguy]

[ asjdhjasd ]

[ ENCOURAGING SHOULDER SLAP because wow you've got it ]

That's the spirit!

[earthrhythms]

[ BEAMING. Look at this big grin.

But anyway. ]

Sooooo. What do you think is going on here?

[theboomerangguy]

[ MATCHING IT! ]

[ And then serious-ing. ]

Good question. I considered it could simply be a city we - or I, at least - were unaware of. But it's unlike anything I've ever seen. All of those... machines. A city this huge would have been on the maps.

[ f r o w n s ]

How much exactly do you think is the Spirit World capable of?

[earthrhythms]

You think it's something Avatar-y too. And I mean, if there's a statue of me here ...

Does that mean this is the future?

1/2

[theboomerangguy]

[ PUH-LEASE TOPH waving a hand dismissively ]

That can't be it. Time travel's impossible!

2/2

[theboomerangguy]

[ ....pauses ]

Or... is it? It would explain the advanced technology. And why you looked so... adult in your statue...

[earthrhythms]

I looked adult? Then it makes even more sense!

[ Haha, you're wrong and she's right. ]
