Toph Bei Fong has gone home, if any of you guys knew her. Short girl, blind, amazing earthbender -- yeah. Which sort of makes me wonder.. do we have any sort of memorial for the people who have come and gone? I know it kind of sounds silly in practice, but..

[ That doesn't make her miss her friends any less. ]


[Zuko:]

The Avatar after Aang is here. She's a waterbender, and -- just try not to try to capture her, okay?


[Zelos:]

Hey, handsome. How are you doing?

We should start taking more pictures. All of us.

dictated;

[amiable]

[ She pauses. ]

Yeah! They do that back home with school yearbooks! So we should do that here!

dictated;

[waterbends]

What in the world is a yearbook?

dictated;

[amiable]

It's a book filled with lots of pictures. It's like... having a memory of your school year!

dictated;

[waterbends]

I never went to school! I sort of wish we had one here.

dictated;

[amiable]

Were you home schooled?

dictated;

[waterbends]

Nope! But there was just no school in the Southern Water Tribe. We didn't really had enough kids for one!

dictated;

[amiable]

[ But how do people get good jobs? ]

How did you learn things, then? Like math or... history!

dictated;

[waterbends]

[ Like TAKING CARE OF THE BABBIES in the village? Cause she's good at that. ]

Gran-Gran taught my brother and I everything we needed to know.

dictated;

[amiable]

Family member?

What did she teach you?

dictated;

[waterbends]

History, and a little math, and how to darn socks and skin otter-seals and cook. Mostly my brother and I learned math and science and things like that from some of the scrolls my dad used to bring home.

dictated;

[amiable]

S-Skin what? [ D8 NO NOT THE SEALS... ]

dictated;

[waterbends]

[ SHE DOESN'T GET IT.. ]

The otter-seals! And sometimes the penguin-otters, too.

dictated;

[amiable]

What are penguin-otters?

dictated;

[waterbends]

They are.. penguin-otters.

[ She sketches a clumsy half-penguin, half-otter onto the page. ]

dictated;

[amiable]

[ What even... ]

But... how?

dictated;

[waterbends]

How what?

[ Baffled. ]

dictated;

[amiable]

Penguins and otters don't breed together, do they?

dictated;

[waterbends]

No, but penguin-otters breed with penguin-otters. They're just an animal in my world.

dictated;

[amiable]

Penguins and otters are just penguins and otters in mine...

dictated;

[waterbends]

I saw a bear once.

dictated;

[amiable]

Well, I'm from a city... so I don't see wild animals like that.

dictated;

[waterbends]

Really? I'm from a pretty small village, I guess. There were only a few dozen of us.

dictated;

[amiable]

So few?

dictated;

[waterbends]

We lost a lot of people to the war.
