Iroh smiled to Belle and began shuffling through his shelves. "In fact, I have just the thing! I found this while I was traveling around the city and gathering materials for the shop. It seems the plants in the town make a wonderful material, even for cups," he said as he poured a healthy amount in a cup of leafs woven together in a tight bundle of a cup. He held it up immediately after pouring as though it were a showcase. "The best part is that they are so thick, the tea will not burn through the cup and on your hands."

Iroh gave Mrs. Potts a look with soft eyes as though to extend his trust to her. "You are most welcome. I think you give every one of my teapots, even my favorites, a run for their money," he said in a friendly tone.
