-Seoul Foods and Plans-

"Hey," Yori said into the phone.

"Hey," Zuko said, "Come out with me today. The whole gAang is going out tonight."

"What time?" Yori asked, kicking her feet up onto the couch arm. She put down her glass of water.

"Nine."

"To do what?"

"A late dinner."

"Fine," she said, standing.

"Are you okay?" he asked, sitting up a bit straighter, even though they were miles apart.

"Yeah, I'm kind of exhausted. I worked out for the first time in a while today."

He laughed, "How was it?"

"Working out is awful," she moaned.

He blushed after hearing the sound.

"Okay, I'm gonna go take a long bath before I get ready. Bye Zuuks."

"Uh, yeah, bye Yori."

About four hours later, Yori was at the entrance of a Korean restaurant called Seoul Food. She noticed she was about fifteen minutes early, and sat down on the sidewalk in front of be restaurant. She was wearing a short, simple, tan dress with boats and anchors lining the hem, but she had to wear tights this tome, since it was the colder type of November day. She pulled out her iPhone and checked her email as she waited. Her sister was getting married again. Dear Agni, will it ever cease? It was the third time she was getting married? Yori had never even met the guy she was marrying.

"Yori?" someone asked from above her.

She looked up to see Zuko. "Oh, hey." She stood and smiled. His other friends gave her a strange look. "I like to sit on the sidewalk."

"You're weird," Toph said, smiling and then waking into the restaurant.

Yori called, "You're weird too!" before kissing Zuko. "Ponytail!" she said, even more excited to see Sokka. They hugged. "Hi Katara, hi Aang." Aang smiled at her, and Katara rolled her eyes in the discreetest way she could muster, which wasn't discreet at all.

They entered Seoul Foods and Toph was already walking to their table at the back of the brightly lit restaurant. Their table was black, and there was a bench on one side, and three chairs on the other. Yori slid into the bench, followed by Toph, and then Aang.

"How've you guys been?" Katara asked, settling into her seat and putting her napkin onto her lap.

"Fine," Aang said, "There's been a lot less work recently."

"Dad called me yesterday," Sokka said, "He told me to tell you to call him."

"Why didn't you tell me yesterday? I wanted to talk to him!" Katara whined.

"Sorry," Sokka said, "I figured I'd just tell you today. But hey, don't tell him about the baby thing, okay?"

Katara gaped at her brother, "The baby thing? You mean the child you conceived? You didn't tell him yet?"

"No," Sokka hissed, "And we can talk about this later!"

"No, let's talk now!" Katara said.

"Shut up!" Toph said. "Shut up now. I told Sokka not to say anything. Are you going to yell at me now?"

Katara just grumbled in her seat.

"Well," Zuko said, "Now that that's done..."

"Sorry," Katara and Sokka said, pouting simultaneously. Toph didn't say a thing.

The waitress came over and handed everyone their menus and filled the water glasses.

"Kamsahamnida," Yori said, even bowing her head a little. The waitress smiled at her and walked away.

"So you do speak Korean?" Katara asked.

"Yeah, I guess, but I haven't had to speak it in a really long time, so it's really bad when I do." Katara nodded.

Zuko began to look at his menu and then looked up at Yori, "Do you know what you're getting?"

Yori shrugged, "I don't know yet. But I hate that when I eat Korean food, it comes with a serious amount of banchan and I always feel like I have to finish it." They sat for a while reading their menus. "Oh, they have Ojingo Bokum, I think I'll get that."

"Is it good?" Zuko asked.

"Do you like squid?"

"Ew, gross, no."

She laughed. "Then I don't think you'll be a fan of Ojingo Bokum. Just get kimbap or something safe like that. Get kimbap and kimchi and you'll be fine."

The waitress, who was tall and had permed hair returned to the table. "Are you ready to order?"

The other four at the table ordered first and then Yori said, "Ojingo Bokum for me and kimbap and kimchi for him." She handed her menu to the waitress, "And two bottles of soju. And tea, for the pregnant one."

She turned to Toph, "What kind of tea would you like, ma'am?"

"White," Toph said, blushing, but Yori couldn't tell whether from embarrassment or anger.

"Okay!"

"Kamsahamnida," Yori said again as she walked away. "I'm not sure that waitress speaks Korean."

"How can you tell?" Aang asked.

"Well, Zuuks and I-" Toph snickered at the nickname. "-Were at this ramen house, and I said mianhe to the waitress, and she like, immediately perked up and said something to me in Korean and was really excited to get to speak her language here, but this one is just like, whatever."

"You guys go to Korean restaurants a lot?" Sokka asked.

"Nah, that was, like, two months ago."

"That long ago? We've been dating for a while." Yori nodded. "Yeah. We should go somewhere. We should all go somewhere!" They all gave her crazy looks. "The city is so draining! Why don't we go upstate or something?"

"Upstate?"

"Yeah! It's nice up there. We could rent a cabin or something."

"That sounds awesome!" Toph said. "I love camping!"

Yori smiled at her friend. "I don't know if we all can get off work at the same time..." Katara said.

"Well, I can get off of work whenever, I own the place," Zuko said.

"Yeah, and I can get me and Sokka off easy," Toph said.

"And if everyone is going, I guess I can edit anywhere..." Aang said.

Everyone looked at Katara. "Uhm, I'll see, but I'm not promising anything to anyone."

Yori smiled, "This is way cool."
