iii. halfway there

[bodybreakdown]

[Firebending burning roasting some coffee beans; you'll smell it within the vicinity of the tea shop]

Ignore the coffee smell. The Jasmine Dragon is open for tea now.

...and there's some fresh bean juice reserved for Cloud.

[always_censored]

Did you say tea?

[bodybreakdown]

Yeah. Come by the Jasmine Dragon and try some.

[always_censored]

I think I will.

[bodybreakdown]

I can prepare your tea while you get here. Any preference?

[always_censored]

Nah, anything's fine.

... uh, where is there?

[bodybreakdown]

The Jasmine Dragon. It's close to the center of the village, near the other shops. From there, you can follow the burning smell of coffee beans.

[always_censored]

Right. I'll find my way over there. Eventually.

[bodybreakdown]

I'll be waiting then.

[Action]

[always_censored]

[And in time, a pretty long time, Cid finds his way over there.]

[bodybreakdown]

[Zuko was tending a table, but goes to greet Cid shortly] Hey... uh--welcome. You can sit wherever you want.

[always_censored]

Sounds good to me. [And he takes some... random seat!]

[bodybreakdown]

What kind of tea do you like?

Though to be honest, you look more like the type to drink coffee...

[always_censored]

Doesn't matter, s'long as it's good.

[bodybreakdown]

...okay. [goes back to the counter, muttering to himself] That doesn't give me anything to work with...

[comes back with a cup and teapot, and pours the tea for Cid] Hope oolong tea suits you.

[always_censored]

[Once that tea is poured, Cid'll drink it, ever so delicately. He then nods in approval.]

Tastes great.

[bodybreakdown]

Then I'll be seeing you around here more often, huh. [holding the teapot and keeping it hot by firebending, but unsure if Cid still wants him there] Would you like anything else?
