"...I think I would have rather taken my chances with whatever was coming out of the portal." Rolling her eyes was fast becoming a habit in this place and time. No matter. She couldn't rewind time, there was only here and now. "Wrestling...right." Her usual katas and moves were much more refined than those barbaric stances but...part of her knew instinctually she was more familiar with some of those moves. What do you know, the other life and memories actually had merit beyond being a pest. She simply had to scour her mind and...THERE!
She was mentally dragged back to a time not that long ago, a typical night at their home/teashop. The customer influx had ceased in large part for the day, Uncle was getting ready to close up and it was almost perfect for studying to begin. Almost. The loud ruckus coming from Zuko's room was almost deafening and absolutely annoying. Eventually, it was with an angry scowl that she gripped her pencil so hard it snapped in two, slowly rising up out of her chair to make her way across the hall. With a kick, she pushed the door open, slamming into the wall. Two faces snapped to stare at her from the sudden spike of sound aside the blaring of the TV. Her brother's and his friend, who she couldn't figure out for her life why she was friends with Zuko. Or why she was so interested in such crap TV.
"What the heck is wrong with you two?!"
"...Us? You're the one who just kicked in the door, drama queen." Their guest Toph just turned her head back to the TV at that point, plainly uninterested. Zuko shrugged and turned back as well, turning down the volume a few notches. He figured that was what it was anyway.
"...You two, I swear." She growled, stomping to in front of the TV. "Why do you two have to have it so loud anyways?! Some of us are trying to study!"
"Pfft. Maybe you should not study and watch this with us." Toph deadpanned.
"It is pretty good." Zuko added.
"Are you two nuts?"
"Come off it! You really going to tell me you'd rather study than watch TV?"
"................Touché."
And to her surprise, she actually hadn't found the show that distasteful. Though she would never admit to her brother after the next day and she got a B minus on that quiz. A B MINUS!!!
Snapping back to reality and clutching onto the memory tight, she suddenly surged forward. Fine. She'd play along with this game, this fantasy. She locked on to one of the moves she had witnessed that night and went for it. Couldn't be too hard, right?
