If any of you guys have cold remedies that actually work, I'm all ears. Y'know, in case I ever need 'em again. 'Cause there's no way I'm ever gonna suck on another frozen frog, thanks.
[ So, Toph had spent the last week and a half confined to her bed. Well, just to her room. But she was in bed for most of it, because she'd come down with a strange cold that nothing could seem to cure. (Looking for a cure had been an adventure in itself. But that's a story for another time.)
That said, she'd been feeling better these last couple of days, and today she was finally able to harass someone into letting her out of the house (instead of just escaping, anyway.) The weather was starting to get cold, so it wouldn't be long before the days got too chilly for her to spend so much time outside. She was going to take advantage of what time she had left. So, after spending the morning at the barracks making sure her bending hadn't suffered from her cold (it hadn't), she wastes some time at the Avatar House's backyard, lazily raising elaborate, miniature structures and landscapes out of the earth.
And when she needs a minute to rest (because she's still only just recovering!), well, she decides that there was nothing wrong with just lying on the ground. By the end of day, she's totally covered in sand and dust and earth. But who's complaining, right? At least she isn't tracking mud into the house. ]

For the record, you're a really bad frog, Aang.

...Oh! Isn't that where you came from?
[Action]
Yup. [ She pauses for a second, and then lets the model fall back into the ground. ]
[Action]
Why'd you do that? It was really nice!

Anyway. ]
I've never "seen" one of those before. [ Hmm. ] Why don't you make one?
[Action]
[He concentrates, and it takes a moment, but he slowly does some bending movements and shapes a somewhat crude-looking fishopotamus that looks like it's in the process of leaping up from the ground.]
[Action]
... That's really weird. Are you sure they're real?
[Action]
[Action]
Of course you did. Why am I not surprised? [ That didn't mean she liked the idea of it!! She makes a face. ]
