Scraaaaaape. Scraaaaaaaaaaaape. Scraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaape.

Ker-KLUNK Ker-KLUNK Ker-KLUNK

...

Scraaaaaaaaape...

If one were to follow the sound, they'd find a small girl working her hardest at pulling a large lump of metal- probably twice her size or more- down the hall, towards her room in the living area.

Although it was obvious it took some effort for her to move it, it seemed as if it wasn't taking too much out of her and she was getting some distance with it.

Soon, though, she determined that it was break time, and relaxed her hold on the chunk. She leaned against it and panted, wiping sweat from her forehead.

Geeze. How much farther until she got to her room?

[Ooc: Toph's still willing to make weapons if anyone wants any! :D]

"They do now." He smiled, placing his hand against her shoulder gently.

"You're the most bad ass kid I know, so hey. You win hands down."

That got to her, in a good way. She stuck her hands on her hips and grinned madly.

"Preach it!" She cackled, nudging him in the side before moving over to her bed and falling onto it. She didn't use the bed very often. The wood and fabric served as a strong buffer against her being able to sense her environment. She could feel and "see" absolutely nothing while on the bed, so it was rare that she ever used it- typically only when others were around to help keep an eye on things. Duo was damn good at picking up on things, so she felt just fine relaxing her senses for the time.

She reached out and picked up one of the swords, bringing it closer to nitpick at the most minute details of the blade and handle.

"I should go wish for some ray skin. It'll make the handle easier to hold."

And here she thought that listening in on Zuko and Sokka talk about weapons would never come in handy.

"You bet." Cos he just nudged her right back. He looked over the scythe blades and grins. Just hoped this worked.

"Ray? What's a ray, exactly?"

[tophbeifong]

"They're fish type things that live in the water. You wrap their rough, scaly skin around weapon handles and it makes it easier to hold on to. Kinda like how pumice is easier to hold on to than marble."

She shot him a smirk.

"Plus, I was taught a good recipe for 'em."
