Listen, if you're gonna drag me out here, couldn't you at least do some canon review first? I mean, how are you ever gonna imitate how great I am if it's not fresh in your memory? Sheesh. You act like it's some kind of miracle I started talking to you again. But you've still got to do your part.

And stop acting like I want to go back. I don't miss any of those old lugs, you got it? And there's nothing you can do to convince me, so just forget about it. I'm staying put right here.

Hey! So my mundane said you can manipulate metal too.

[metalbends]

You bet I can! I'm the greatest Earthbender in the whole wide world.

[And don't you forget it!]

[flying_nerd_hidden_dragon]

Nice! Though I'm just the metal guy. My friend Clay is the one who deals with earth.

[markofthewise]

"Lug", huh?

[markofthebrave]

Toph!

[You're getting hugged. Deal with it.]

[metalbends]

Oh yeah? Well, I can do both! What sort of things can you do, chump?

[metalbends]

Yep. And you, Sokka? Are the luggiest.

[metalbends]

[gjasdg aww man. Well. Katara hugs have never been too bad to deal with...alright, giving in and hugging back.]

Yeah, yeah. Good to see you too, Sweetness.

[flying_nerd_hidden_dragon]

Well I just figured out how to run on water by hardening the minerals in the water. I never thought about it before but there is metal everywhere.

[markofthebrave]

[Katara pulls back.]

I've missed you. Things haven't been the same without you.

[markofthewise]

I feel so loved. Really.

[metalbends]

[Why didn't she think of that?]

Oh,yeah? That's pretty cool, I guess.

[metalbends]

What, would you rather have me say something gushy about how much I've missed you guys?

[flying_nerd_hidden_dragon]

What can you do then?

[He's being pretty open-minded. He wasn't going to underestimate her just because she was younger than him. He didn't even register the blind thing.]

[metalbends]

Well, duh! It's not like I can be replaced! I hope you guys haven't missed me too much, though.

[distressedude]

Master Toph! [Smile! But oh, they still never got a chance to talk after all that awkward, huh.]

...your mun is thinking about bringing you back?

1/2

[markofthebrave]

[SO MUCH, Toph.]

[markofthebrave]

Well, things have been a little busy...

[metalbends]

Oh, you know, just the most impressive things you've ever seen. Throwing huge pieces of earth at people, telling metal what's what, generic butt kicking. That kind of stuff.

[metalbends]

Really? Are you keeping everyone in line? I heard Twinkletoes finally showed up.

[metalbends]

Greenbeard! [...

...

...

Oh. Yeah. Right. Ahem.]

That's the story. Something about blah blah Twinkletoes and blah blah Korra.

[markofthewise]

... fair enough. I think I'll pass on the squishy feelings.

[distressedude]

[...dat nickname...]

"Twinkletoes"?

[flying_nerd_hidden_dragon]

Eh, that just sounds like an every day thing for me and Clay.

[markofthebrave]

[Katara chooses to ignore that bit about 'keeping everyone in line.' Aang's arrival is infinitely more important.]

He did! And it looks like he might be sticking around for a little while!

[metalbends]

Oh, yeah? Well, I'm sure I could still take both of you. No sweat.

[metalbends]

I'll give you a wet-willy if you really want me to. You just have to ask!

[markofthewise]

I'm good. Really.

[metalbends]

Well, that's good. You should be able to count on the Avatar, after all.

...

Did he steal my room? [Gasp! He could actually find her secret rock stash.]

[flying_nerd_hidden_dragon]

Really? Because I think you would have some problems.

[metalbends]

Oh, yeah! Good old Twinkletoes. He's my pal from back home, and he just showed up in Luceti! Maybe you'll meet him. He's supposedly got an arrow on his head. And he walks like a fancy dancer.

[markofthebrave]

[Your secret rock stash disappeared when you went home, Toph. D8]

We have two empty rooms now - Mai went home after you did.

[So A room will be available for you, chill.]

[metalbends]

Alright, alright. I'll stick with just one good sock in the arm.

[markofthewise]

I think I can live with that.

[metalbends]

[OH NO HE DIDN'T.]

I'll give you some problems if that's really what you think!

[metalbends]

...It's not gonna smell at musty and mopey in there, is it?

[flying_nerd_hidden_dragon]

If you want. It would be kind of cool to have someone new to spar with.

[metalbends]

You can count on it, then. One good old-fashioned punch in the gut when I get back.

[She may have slightly amended that.]

[markofthewise]

You said arm!

[metalbends]

Kind of cool? You'd be lucky to get a chance to spar with me, you ninny!

[metalbends]

What? In the gut is how I show I missed you even more.

[flying_nerd_hidden_dragon]

Yeah right! I'm the Xiaolin dragon of metal. You should be happy to be sparring with me! You might learn something.

[markofthewise]

Yeah, well, you won't even remember missing me. So I'll have to do the gut punching to make up for it.

[metalbends]

Whatever. You'll just be jealous when I come back knowing more than you do!

[markofthewise]

What's that supposed to mean?

[metalbends]

I'm coming from the future, Snoozles! Just like Twinkletoes.

[markofthewise]

The future? That future? It's overrated.

[markofthebrave]

Toph, that's not nice.

[...funny, though. It was funny.]

Of course not.
