⊕ 10: Sandstone

[Toph is in a somewhat remote area of the Plane with a massive patch of earth and rock. She is currently raising suspiciously boy-shaped rocks out of the earth and darting around, punching each one into smithereens. It would look like a normal training exercise if not for the unusually intense and angry look on her face. She's also muttering to herself.]

Stupid Fire Nation. Stupid Fire Lord. Stupid Isaac. Stupid boys.

[She finishes with the first set and raises several more rock-boy-punching-bags, then turns to go at them again.]

It's just that everyone is acting so stupid! [TOPH SMASH.] First Isaac and Felix getting into that stupid fight and practically killing each other, and now we find out--ugh! [Powderizes another rock.] Now we find out that one of the previous Fire Lords betrayed the Avatar when he was Avatar Roku. And I know not everyone in the Fire Nation is that awful, but it just makes me so mad!

[Stomps a foot and all of the rock-figures simultaneously explode into very tiny particles.]

Ah~ Such seems to be the way of humans, unfortunately. I think that is they that do not understand the importance of a pack.

[Stops and looks over in her general direction.]

Pack?

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

As a wolf would have. The importance of friendship and family is what I mean.

[got-the-stones.livejournal.com]

A wolf? [Thinking of the Water Tribes.] I guess that makes sense...

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

You do know what a wolf is, yes?

{Laughs} It would be quite the blow to my pride if you did not!

[got-the-stones.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we have them in my world. Not many, I think. The Water Tribe honors them--like Wolf Warriors and stuff.

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

Then how fortunate for me! I am a wolf, after all. A clever one, perhaps, but~

[got-the-stones.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Interesting. I keep meeting talking animals and such.

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

I should hope that is not too bad of a thing!

[got-the-stones.livejournal.com]

Nah, I guess not.

[wheat-wolf.livejournal.com]

Then tell me, what other talking animals have you met? I have met my kin in more way than one, Amaterasu, but no more than that.

[got-the-stones.livejournal.com]

Dunno about an Amaterasu, but there were a few talking cats around, and that frog.
