The Ember Island Players

"Let's forget about the Avatar and go get massages!" Iroh's actor proposed. "How could you say that?!" Zuko's actor exclaimed. You snorted as Zuko slumped down in his seat.

Soon, it got to the scene where you saw Zuko again for the first time after leaving the Fire Nation.

"Zuko, my long lost friend! It's been so long since I've seen your super hot, angsty face!" Your actress gasped.

Zuko's actor shook his head, "I don't have eyes for you anymore, Y/N! You abandoned me! I must capture the Avatar!" Zuko's actor threw your actress into the ocean.

You gasped, mouth agape. "Wow, Zuko!"
He looked over at you and shrugged with a smirk, "You don't know how many times I've wanted to do that to you."

"It's the Great Divide, the biggest canyon in the Earth Kingdom!" Actress Aang beamed. "Eh, let's keep flying." Actor Sokka sighed.

Actress Aang entered with a Koizilla costume, "The Ovatar is back to save the day! Yay!" She fell over and slid off stage like a worm.

The crowd began to clap and cheer, and so did Toph, but everyone else looked annoyed.

During the intermission, all of you sat down on a flight of stairs to discuss the play. "So? How would you guys rate it out of ten?" You questioned.

"Easy ten." Toph stated. Aang groaned. "So far, the intermission is the best part of the play." Zuko mumbled, running a hand through his deep brown hair.

"Apparently, the playwright thinks I'm some idiot who tells bad jokes about meat all the time." Sokka said.

"Yeah, you tell bad jokes about plenty of other topics, too!" Suki laughed. "I know, right?" Sokka huffed.

"At least your actor kind of looks like you. The lady playing the Avatar doesn't resemble like me at all. She can't even pronounce Avatar!" Aang frowned.

"I don't know, you are more in touch with your feminine side than most guys." Toph hummed. "Argh!" Aang tutted, standing up angrily.

"Relax Aang, they're not accurate portrayals. It's not like I'm a preachy crybaby who can't resist giving an over-emotional speech about hope all the time." Katara said.

Everyone stared at her in silence.

"What?" Katara whispered, nonplussed.

Aang sat back down, "Yeah, that's not you at all."

You placed a hand on Aang's shoulder, "Are you sure you still want to watch the play? You don't have to." You whispered.

Aang sighed and whispered back, "I still want to spend time with her."

You glanced over at Katara, then back at Aang. Giving him a soft smile you replied,
   "Alright. But just remember, it's not real, okay? If anything upsets you, talk to us about it. I know how rough things get at your age. Especially with love." 

Aang returned the smile, although his was more weary. He nodded and exhaled, standing up.

With that, the next act began.

"I flew all over town, but I couldn't find a single earthbending teacher!" Aang's actress sighed. "You can't find an earthbending master in the sky. You have to look underground!" Toph's actor declared. He was an extremely buff man.

"My name's Toph. Because it sounds like tough, and that's just what I am!" Toph's actor said, flexing.

"Wait a minute, I sound like a guy. A really buff guy." Toph grinned, "Sweet!"
