(Picking an image for this episode was so hard, because they're all amazing.)
You watched as Zuko and Aang trained.
They stayed in sync as they controlled fire, shooting it out of their hands and feet.
They stopped, bowing to one another before walking away.
"Great job, Aang!" You called from your seat on the steps. "You're really excelling with fire."
He beamed over at you. "Thanks!"
"Doesn't it seem weird that we're hiding from the Firelord in his own house?" Katara asked.
Zuko rubbed his head and neck with a towel. "I told you, my father hasn't come here since our family was actually happy. And that was a long time ago. It's the last place anyone would think to look for us."
"You guys are not going to believe this!" Sokka announced, rushing into the courtyard with Suki close behind. "There's a play about us."
Your eyes widened in surprise.
"We were just in town and we found this poster." Suki informed as Sokka held it up.
"What? How is that possible?" Katara asked, walking over.
Sokka turned the poster around so he could read it. "Listen to this. 'The Boy In The Iceberg' is a new production from acclaimed playwright Puon Tim, who scoured the globe gathering information on the Avatar from the icy South Pole to the heart of Ba Sing Se. Sources include singing nomads, pirates, prisoners of war and a surprisingly knowledgeable merchant of cabbage."
Suki continued to read over his shoulder. "Brought to you by the critically acclaimed Ember Island Players."
Zuko groaned.
You looked over at him in question.
"My mother used to take us to see them. They butchered 'Love Amongst the Dragons' every year."
You raised an eyebrow.
"Sokka, do you really think that it's a good idea to attend a play about ourselves?" Katara asked.
"Come on, a day at the theater? This is the kind of wacky time-wasting nonsense I've been missing!" Sokka exclaimed, grinning widely.
Katara sighed.
"Guess we're going to the theater." You noted.
"I guess so."

You all made your way into one of the top seats.
Toph sat all the way on the right, then Katara, then Zuko and Aang.
"Hey, I wanted to sit there." Aang told Zuko, pointing to where the prince was sitting.
"Just sit next to me. What's the big deal?" Zuko asked, taking off his hood.
"I was just... I wanted to... okay." Aang gave in, sitting next to Zuko.
You, Sokka and Suki sat in the row behind them.
"Why are we sitting in the nosebleed section?" Toph asked. "My feet can't see a thing from up here."
"Don't worry. I'll tell your feet what's happening." Katara assured, keeping her gaze fixed on the curtains.
