We've been getting an awful lot of rain this month so far, haven't we? Was it this bad last year?

Speaking of "year"... getting pretty close to my first, now. A lot has happened to make it feel a lot shorter than it is. I guess it took me by surprise...

Hey everyone, just a quick announcement:

Be sure to put in some extra practice today if you can, because tomorrow I plan on running a private tournament between you all to see how you're doing. It's hand-to-hand only, so you can use whatever techniques you've learned so far. Get a good night's sleep the night before, okay?

Next week I'd like to try some acrobatics, so we'll meet in the Battle Dome.

[Filtered to Toph]

Hey, Toph, if you're not busy today, want to work on some training? I have a few ideas I'd like to try.

[Suki is out and about today, picking some stuff up at the plaza, checking on the status of the uniforms, and hiding out in one of the shops when the rain hits. Otherwise, housemates can find her at home- probably soaked to the bone when she arrives, poor thing.]

Hm...

[Well, actually... that gets her thinking.]

Would... um. Would you be happier if I was a little more feminine...?

I- what? You're plenty feminine, aren't you?

[Really, he doesn't find her un-feminine or anything. He doesn't really understand the question.]

That's what I'm asking you! [What's not to understand, sheesh...]

Well, I don't know! I think you're fine! Great, even. I mean, if you want to dress girlier, I wouldn't mind or anything. [He'd honestly probably like it, but he doesn't want to force it on her.]

But would you like it? [Because she's pretty sure he would, and it's not like she doesn't enjoy looking beautiful for him. She's just- okay, maybe she still has some insecurities left that she'd like reassured. But with Yue living with them, why wouldn't she want to be prettier for him?]

Well... sure, yeah. [He wouldn't not like it. He's just unsure about this whole forcing her to get prettied up for his sake. It's a lot of trouble, isn't it?]

Really... [HMMM. Maybe she'll just have to surprise him one day, then. One of those multiple anniversaries he's talked about, perhaps.

...New project: get!]

Uh, really! Should I be doing the same thing? I mean... not prettying up, just more... fancier?

You don't have to- just like I don't. Do it if you want to! Though if we're going to do that, we should pick days to dress up and go out or something, like we're having a real date.

Don't we go on real dates already?

This is better! It'll be fancy dates.

Well it would give us a better idea of whether or not fancy dates are better than regular ones... there is that new night club, after all.

Oh, right! We should definitely check that out. It has kind of an elegant sound to it.

["Elite", even... a club, like it has selective attendance. Surely a pair like them would be allowed in, hmm?]

I know, right? And it's an adult kind of thing. We never do adult things like that. Which is odd, given we are, technically, adults.

[They just do... other adult things.]

It's a good place to start, then. [And maybe she'll have to ask around about that. Hopefully without making it sound like she's-

...oh goodness. Okay. Not publicly, then...]

Speaking of which... it looks like nobody's home right now...

[Are you ponder what he's pondering?]

...In the middle of the day?

[A slight teasing tone, definitely not a rejection. She's more amused than anything else.]

Well it's been a whole week, so...

[What's wrong with some middle of the day fun? It just leaves more time for other stuff later!]

And whose fault is that, Camper Thunderaxe?

[Again, teasing, though- since she's already taking his hand and tugging him towards the hall.]

That's Mister Camper Thunderaxe, thank you. And it's Luke's fault.

[But consider him being led away. His room or her's?]

[Definitely, hers; he's the popular one in this household.]

You know, you could've come home to visit when he did.

[But he has the bigger bed! But he probably left it a mess anyway.]

But then he'd feel justified. I couldn't let him have that.

[Small bed means close contact! He'll like it.]

Oh, course not. Not even to see your lonely fiancee.

You could have always come to visit me instead, you know.

[Oh, Momo is on her bed. Sokka will just deposit him outside, then close the door.]

But then we couldn't have this nice reunion. I kind of prefer it this way.

[Absence makes the heart grow fonder and all that. Now c'mere you.]
