[ Surprisingly, Toph's device is still working, despite sand abuse. She's sitting around near the camp when she feels some familiar footsteps... not particularly close. ] Wait... is that idiot really wandering around the desert on foot? [ She shouts: ] Hey, Tyr! Stay put. [ Who knows if he'll hear her. ]

Char, Bad Jokes, Runaway, Bitey... the rest of you I don't have nicknames for... I've got to go rescue somebody. I'll be back later.

[ ooc: Okay, so Toph is leaving her lovely caravan to find Tyr and a few other people... Rita, Riou, basically anyone who wants to join in! Feel free to have your own threads and threadjack and mingle, etc. She'll meet back up with the caravan group later. ]

...Char? Bad Jokes? Runaway and Bitey?

[ Looks around at everyone else with him. Which is which. This is curious... ]

[blackshadow]

[ His ears aren't sharp enough to pick up that little "idiot" but, but he does hear her yelling. He turns around and shouts back: ] —Toph? What do you want?

[blackshadow]

She likes to give stupid names to people. I'm surprised she actually called me by name...

[everhoping]

I was actually curious which of us got which nickname...

[ Tyr is Tyr...! ]

[blackshadow]

Maybe you're "Bad Jokes"...

[everhoping]

Are my jokes that bad?

[blackshadow]

They're not good...

[everhoping]

But aren't they funny?!

[blackshadow]

... [ Avoiding eye contact....... ]

[everhoping]

Tyyyr!

[blackshadow]

I can't believe how much sand is in my shoes...

[everhoping]

...is it hot?

[blackshadow]

It's too annoying to be hot...

TOPH!? [ Aang's as close to the screen as he can get. ]

Where are you? We got separated from everyone and Appa's been flying for hours! [ He sounds just a little bit desperate, but he continues doing his best to bend the sand away from Appa's eyes. ]

Are you okay? [ It seems a little lame to add, but he does it anyway. ]

[negativegate]

[A day or two before Rita dies! Rita lives on the beach, but the beach is not usually this hot and dry. She's lazing around somewhere, taking a break.]

Ugh...How are you so excited?

[everhoping]

Need water?

[blackshadow]

[ Scoffs and waves his hand dismissively. ] Not that badly...

Unless that was a bad joke, too...

[everhoping]

It wasn't!

And I was just wondering... it is pretty hot around here... I'm getting thirsty....

[blackshadow]

...

Do you want some of my water? We can take a break whenever Toph gets over here...

You're hanging out with someone named Bitey?

[a_parting_word]

Don't wander off on your own, will you?

[charring]

Stay safe, Toph.

[beifongbandit]

[ She's going to yell back as she heads in his direction. Not... really in any particular hurry. ] What are you doing, Suspect?

[video]

[beifongbandit]

Twinkletoes, there you are!

I'm... [ She rolls her eyes. ] In the desert, I don't know. Somewhere near a really big building that's mostly fallen to pieces. Are you okay?

He's a vampire apparently. I think his real name is something else.
