"You think that my worth is less than yours because of what, because I have breasts and am undoubtedly a woman?" The Chief of Kyoshi,once Kyoshi Warrior Commander, war hero, and mother of three stood unflinchingly tall under the gaze of an Earth Kingdom merchant who had been ignoring her in favor of the men standing around. Finally he had handed her some of his luggage, apparently thinking her a servant, and told her to 'scurry along like a good woman'. Needless to say Suki was not pleased.

The trader looked down his nose, or at least attempted to until his nose was pressed up against wooden planks and a knee was shoved forcefully into his back. "Women are to be taken seriously asshole, especially the women of Kyoshi. You would do best to learn that before you try selling your pathetic wares here again." With that, Suki dug her knee in further before stating, "Don't come back until you've learned some real manners."

Sokka watched the entire scene unfold from down the pier, a grin splitting his face. The twins - Kyo and Shi were already trying with their best three year old balance to imitate their mom and Sokka was sure that the telling of this story tonight at dinner would only harden his little warriors' resolve to be just like Mommy even if the girls did tend to pick up Daddy's boomerang and pop it into their mouths with unusual vigor and take almost everything apart. Yeah, the twins would turn out great and watching Suki gracefully take down another fool who thought she was worthless served as yet another reminder of why Sokka fell in love with her in the first place.
