Outside the farmhouse, there's a very localised seismic incident.

Toph spent the night in a rock tent, mostly because the main building is already packed full of people. This morning, for a lack of anything else to do, she's decided to do something about it.

So this tiny little blind girl is standing in an empty field, within sight of both fort and house. At first she just stands paces quietly, getting a feel for the earth, then her hands lift, and a huge square of turf rises about three feet up, on a large slab of bed rock, taking her with it.

From there the Earthbender continues, waving her arms and occasionally feet in firm, strong motions, but with no obvious results to anyone who can't see or feel beneath the surface of the ground as she can, or who hasn't lookedclose enough to see the strained expression on her face. Not until the raised slab heaves up again after half an hour's work.

Toph is building somewhere for people to sleep.

"Well, what kind of stuff does she know?"

Be reasonable, Toph!

"Maybe she can help us get back to the invasion!"

"I don't know! You might not have!"

Sokka consumes more pineapple. 'Consumes' is a nice way to describe it.

(Look, he's hungry, it's delicious. OM NOM NOM, basically.)

"You could have just discovered a brand new career as a builder," Sokka suggests. "It could be your calling."

"Hey, I'm just checking."

He knows that.
