"Zuko is completely insufferable," was the first thing Katara said as she settled down into a nearby chair.

Sokka surveyed her from behind a massive elephant-whale kebab. "Not that I'm against bashing Zuko, but didn't you just say he was okay after all?"

"I don't remember saying that. When did I say that?"

"Uh...last week?"

"Well." Katara flushed. "Obviously I was deluded at the time. I can't believe--he's so arrogant!"

"I completely--" Sokka took a bite-- "agree."

"Always acting like he's better than everyone else, flaunting that title of his--'I forgot you wouldn't know, being a peasant'--hmph! I don't know what I ever saw in him!"

"Yeah, he's a bastard, that Zuko." Sokka gestured to the plate beside them. "Kebab?"

"No thanks. So, when are we going back to the Water Tribe?"

Sokka sighed. "Katara, even if we do go back to the Water Tribe, you'll have changed your mind within a week."

"I will not! What makes you say that?"

"Uh...the part where you always do this?"

"I--I don't know what you're talking about! Don't be idiotic!"

"Whatever. Look, he's probably going to send you a fancy-pants royal apology or something, so you might as well wait around for that."

"I--" Katara sighed. "Fine."
