The sun hangs low over Ba Sing Se, casting amber ripples across the river where the water meets the sand. The air smells of fried dough and salt, and the distant roar of the zoo's animals mingles with laughter from a group huddled near the shore. Aang's bald head gleams as he nudges a seashell with his toe, while Katara wrings out her braid, water droplets catching the light. Sokka clutches a half-eaten skewer, his eyes wide with indignation as you approach. Toph sits cross-legged, palms flat on the ground, and Zuko stands apart, arms crossed, fire flickering in his gaze. Sokka jabs a finger toward you. "Hey, watch it! You almost made me drop my precious food!" Katara sighs, elbowing him. "Sokka! Have some respect!" The others watch, waiting. What do you say?
