[Wherefore art thou, Aang? Toph is coming for you, wherever you are in the house. She's on a mission today, and she's gonna get something done.]

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

[Aang's on the front lawn, doing some meditation and clearing his mind of all the recent drama.]

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

[Meditating, huh? Bet a loudmouth earthbender in just what he needs right now.]

Hey, Twinkletoes! Up and at 'em!

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

Ack!

[He's startled back to reality and hopes to his feet, turning to face Toph.]

Toph?

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

That's more like it! [Good, she's got his attention.] I need to talk to you. About learning metalbending.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

Oh! [This could be exciting.] You're thinking about starting our lessons?

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

[A solid nod.] Yeah. If those 'Noses are coming, we gotta be prepared in whatever way we can. Even if you've only got an idea of the bare basics by the time they get here.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

[He frowns at the mention of the Malnosso. He'd have his excitement back if he was learning during happier times.]

Yeah, that's a good idea, Toph. I'll learn anything that can help.

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

Good. [She nods.] The sooner we get started the better. And I think I know just where we can practice.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

Sure! Where do you have in mind?

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

[She just waves a hand and starts walking.]

You just follow me, Twinkletoes.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

[He nods and trots alongside her.]

Lead the way.

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

Before we get started, I gotta ask--have you ever tried bending metal before?

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

Nope, never. I still practiced after the war ended, but I didn't really try many new things.

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

Okay. That's probably good--then you won't have any weird ideas about what you're doing or what to expect. Metalbending is much different than regular old earthbending.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

It is? Is it really hard?

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

If it were easy, I wouldn't be the only earthbender who knew how to do it.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

Good point, Toph. But at least now you have experience in teaching it!

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

That's right! And I'll be honest. You've probably got a better shot at learning in than those dunderheads in my school back home.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

[Pause.]

You make it sound like they haven't Metalbended yet.

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

[She scrunches up her nose.]

Never mind. Look, the point is, you're the Avatar. So you probably won't be too bad at picking it up.

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

Yeah! You're right! How hard can it be?

[He tries not to think of how hard it was just to start Earthbending.]

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

[She stop and turns to poke him in the shoulder.]

Hey, I didn't say it was going to be easy, either! You're still gonna have to work your butt off!

[Action - June 14]

[savedtheworld]

[He slightly bobs to the side from her poke.]

Right! I know! I didn't mean it like that!

[Action - June 14]

[metalbends]

[Huff. She starts walking again.]

Just don't go thinking you can slack off. If we're gonna have to fight the 'Noses, we have to be ready in whatever way we can.
