[Toph is laying on her bunk bed cross-legged, with a huge pile of protein bars from the cafeteria in her lap. She unwraps one and takes an enormous bite, and starts to talk as she's chewing.]

So, I know there's gotta be certain Transports around who can go out into space and not choke to death or whatever, right? Metal people, monsters, or whatever.

If you can do that, I wanna know. Gimme a call, yeah? I can make it worth your time.

[chew, chew, thinking. She feels around for the recently discarded bar wrapper and holds it up towards the tablet camera, attempting to show off whatever is written on it, but failing because it's inside-out.]

Oh yeah, can anyone tell me what the heck these even are?

((EDIT A MOMENT LATER:))

Tch...!

[she grumpily turns the video back on the show the wrapper properly. someday she's gonna get lucky and get it right the first time. SOMEDAY]

Ah, you have to turn the wrapper around, Toph.

Oh - tch. [you'd think that eventually she'd get it right just out of luck! she fixes it and makes a change to her post.]

...thanks. Kaeda, was it?

[ ONE DAY!!! ]

Close! Kaede — kah-eh-day.

Anyway, that looks like one of the protein bars from the kitchen.

I could go out, I suppose. But why would you want someone to?

I want rocks. Moon rocks.

[That's a surprisingly simple answer but then the girl on screen is quite young, maybe she just thinks it would cool to own some.]

Anything special planned for them?

If one of those people were to reply, how would you make it worth their time?

It would depend a bit on what I could do for you. But... [she holds up a wrapper.] I still got tons of protein bars.

[Food for service. This is okay with her.]

Define "tons". I don't do favors for just two or three, you know.

I can go out better that that other bitch you got. Way better.

Oh yeah? Better? Not that I'm disagreeing with you, buddy, but it kinda seems like a thing where you can either do it or you can't.

[ stop that with your logic >:( ]

Yeah, see, that's what you'd think, right? But it's totally fucking wrong. I'm the goddamn shit at going out there. Done it plenty'a times already! I'm a pro. I bet she's never even looked outside.

ttly not here

[Oh, hey roomie. Heath is as far away form his own bed as feasibly possible, because he's trying to melt one of his own protein bars into something marginally more edible and he doesn't really want to set fire to the place he needs to sleep. It's not going well, judging by the smell coming off it]

Pretty sure most monsters need to breathe air. [A pause] Except zombies. And possibly vampires.

I guess, but considering the possibilities when you're dealing with monsters, I thought I'd include them.

[she shrugs and then turns her head in his direction with a confused look.]

.....what are you doing?

And there are like, a ton of us here.

[He'll continue melting that thing, making a lovely mess of the floor. He gives a shrug, forgetting she can't actually see him do it]

I'm trying to make these things taste better than cardboard.
