A few more strokes of the broom against the floor shoved the last plumes of dirt away into the bare streets. Iroh twirled it from one hand to the other and placed it away in the corner of the room, flooded with sunlight and warmth. "All ready!" he announced with excitement, looking over the front door banner that read WELCOME TO THE GOLDEN TURTLE TEA PARTY!

"I have a feeling I will be soon enough," he said, feeling relieved to see that Toph had accepted his offer, "I will be glad to escort you after I get through with business here. I have been wanting to see your earthbending techniques again for some time."

He shuffled across to refill a glass for another customer, quickly coming back to re-enter the conversation. "I am, but I find that it is easier to consider this a hobby rather than a job."

"I'm glad you're having fun with it." Toph of course, would never find manning a shop as being fun, but to each their own. Then again, working with Iroh might actually be enjoyable.

"Well, if you ever need a little help, give me a call. You can pay me with tea." Toph really didn't see a reason to get paid in the jewels of the cities since they literally grew out of the trees.

Toph slowly drank her tea, taking in the delicate flavor. So far, there weren't a lot of people here, but she'd be walking around once there were more people.

"Oh, I do what I can. That is the true aim of life: to find something you enjoy for as long as you live. It only gets better if it is something you can share with others," he advised Toph, "Maybe you can teach people how to earthbend almost as good as you can!"

"I would love to hire you as a helper. I will let you know when I really get in deep," he offered.

Toph laughed. "I don't know. It's hard enough to teach Twinkletoes!"

"I'll be around. It's not like I can do anything else around here." Toph sipped more of her tea. "Well, I'm off to see what everyone else here is up to." She hopped off the seat and grabbed her tea, moving to the closest person she could find.

Iroh gave a high arch to one of his eyebrows. "Twinkletoes?" he queried. The gears in his head gave a quick turn against each other and then produced a clear answer to his own question. "Oh, you mean Aang!" He never thought of someone being close enough to the Avatar that he would come into such an interesting nickname; then again, if there would be anyone who could do so without any repercussion, it would be Toph Bei Fong.

"Have fun! Do try not to engage in battle...and if you do, please do take it outside," he offered, fearing the worst.
