It was lunch time at school and the Gaang were relaxing around their usual table in the crowded cafeteria.
Toph and Sokka were obnoxiously arguing about the best WWE fighters of all time, their voices rising above the already loud atmosphere in the busy lunch-room. Besides them, Katara was sat watching Aang play a game on his phone, looking up intermittently to shoot her brother an irritated look. On the other side of the table, Azula sat filing her nails as Mai and Zuko hunched beside her sharing an earphone.
Almost everyone looked up to greet Suki and Ty Lee when they finally emerged from the crowd late from their last class.
'Hey guys, the craziest thing happened in Civics!', Ty Lee said, dropping into the empty seat next to Azula. Her girlfriend just raised an inquisitive eyebrow in response and turned her head to receive a kiss on the cheek.
'Colour me intrigued', Azula drawled, playfully wrapping one arm around Ty Lee's waist to pull her closer.
'Okay, well, remember those questionnaires we asked you guys to fill out for our final project?', Suki continued, accepting half a sandwich from Sokka as she settled next to him.
'You mean the lifestyle and worldview one?', Aang asked.
'Yeah! That's the one', Suki beamed. 'Well, we were comparing all your responses today and the results were so interesting!'
'Are these the responses you told us were going to be anonymous?', Mai droned. Ty Lee and Suki just nodded and giggled.
'Honestly, what did you expect?', Azula muttered, rolling her eyes. Next to her, Mai gave a defeated shrug and turned her gaze back to her phone to select a new song.
'Don't you guys want to know what we found out?', Ty Lee teased, batting her eyes playfully.
'Alright, I'll bite', Toph finally replied. 'Whatcha find?'
'The responses were not at all what we were expecting', Suki laughed. 'Like, oh I don't know, who do you think came out as the most conservative?'
'Oh, that's easy', Zuko said, barely stopping to think. 'Azula'.
The group made general sounds of agreement.
'Actually, Azula was surprisingly liberal', Suki admitted, taking a bite of her sandwich. Azula shrugged as the rest of the group fixed her with a confused expression.
'I don't know why that is so shocking. I'm dating a girl, for Yangchen's sake.'
'You literally said that some people deserved to be homeless less than an hour ago', Mai reminded her. Azula just smirked as the rest of the group turned their attention back to Suki.
'You might be surprised to know that the most conservative was actually...Toph!'
'Toph!?', Aang and Katara exclaimed in unison.
'What can I say?', Toph laughed gruffly. 'I'm all about self-reliance and good old-fashioned hard work. You shouldn't need a government check to look after yourself.'
'Easy for you to say, you're loaded!', Sokka pointed out. Toph just punched him on the arm and continued laughing.
'Do another one!', Aang chirped. 'This is a pretty fun game.'
'Okay', Suki chuckled, pulling a few results out of her backpack. 'Who do you think was most idealistic?'
'Aang', everyone replied. Aang blushed slightly and ran his hand over his head.
'Okay yeah, that was an easy one', Suki laughed. 'Ty and Sokka were close behind him, though.'
'Sokka?', Toph snorted.
