So, I just get here, and already they're hounding me to join up with them. It's always the same.

"Toph, help us, we need a bridge to cross this river!" or "Toph, save us, there's hot lava coming right at us!"

Then what? Gratitude? No! More demands. Tch.

But there is a reason you help them, right?

[earthbends]

Well yeah... They're my friends. My best friends.

[It's obvious for a moment that she does miss her friends, and care for them deeply. Only for a moment!]

Doesn't mean I can't get a thanks once in a while.

[tinfoil_angel]

Then there you go. Sometimes your friends will take you for granted but deep down if they are good friends they do care. Don't they do anything for you?

[Karl knew all along, being a mind reader had its' perks.]

[earthbends]

I guess Sokka does entertain me pretty often by being an idiot.

[Apparently, there are perks for everyone, since the conversation does seem to be lifting her sour mood. She even gives a chuckle at the thought of some of Sokka's more precious moments.]

[tinfoil_angel]

[He smiles a bit too.]

There you go. And from what I hear that Aang kid is a bit of a goof, right?

[earthbends]

Well yeah. I mean, if I pictured the Avatar before I met Aang, I would have had a totally different image.

[tinfoil_angel]

My mun really won't stop talking about you guys. He likes to compare me to you all for a simple explanation. He really likes to compare me to Aang, I have to wonder if it is just because we're both bald rather than any real similarities in abilites

[It was a joke, Karl knew very well why his mun liked to compare him to Aang.]

[earthbends]

You do remind me of him a little. Aang would have probably told me the same thing, but he probably would have added something about working together and love too.

[tinfoil_angel]

Well I was sort of trying to hint at the working together when I mentioned the others doing things for you.

Also my mundane likes to say my abilities are best described in your world as "mind-bending".

by our canons combined...

[worldinagrain]

It is very hard.

[Pause. She gives you a Significant Look that'sssss honestly wasted on you, because Toph. The she sighs in sympathy.]

You know what you've done and what it means, though.

«Too many will seek only to use others for what they need.»

[waterbends]

Is that how it's gonna be, then? [A playful harumph.] Okay, well - the next time I hear 'oh Katara, help me, there's a shallow puddle and I can't swim across!', don't expect any help from me.

[deadlydebutante]

Friends are awfully demanding, aren't they?

...you can always say 'no'.
