[To be honest, Jinora was very different from both of her younger siblings. Only Rohan had yet to reveal how he was so she wasn't sure if they were alike or not. When she hears Iroh's voice, she turns towards him and returns the smile.]

I wouldn't mind at all. Do you have a suggestion to what we should drink?

[tea_lover64]

[He strokes his beard]

Above there is some white jade tea, I highly recommend it.

[spiritwalking]

[She nods and turns to the cabinet again. Rather than climb on the counter in attempt to reach the tea, Jinora will just use airbending to get it down. It was good to practice with the limitations this place put on her.]

I saw that you met Kai earlier. Have you met Korra or Asami yet?

[tea_lover64]

Yes, we had a nice chat and some tea. Korra was here before, and she seems to know me despite having no memories before of Luceti. I have had a brief chat with Asami.

[He is a pretty social fellow]

[spiritwalking]

[Oh, allow Jinora to explain that part.]

She met you in the Spirit World after we got separated. Korra said that you offered her tea and advice.

[tea_lover64]

[Iroh blinks for a second and then laughs]

That does sound a lot like me.

[spiritwalking]

[She nods.]

I'm sure that you were very helpful. Oh, my dad, aunt Kya and uncle Bumi met you too when they came to get me.

[Just in case they ever show up, he'll know that much.]

[tea_lover64]

[He waves that off]

People just need a bit of encouragement and a nudge in the right direction now and again. Good to know. I knew the Bumi whom your uncle was named after, but in my time your grandpa has a few more years before he is ready to start a family.

[spiritwalking]

They do.

[Both of them could have used a little nudge at the time but Jinora was off hanging out in a library to find answers.]

What was King Bumi like?

[tea_lover64]

Aang sums it up best with saying Bumi is a mad genius.

[He smiles fondly]

He is a quirky fellow, but thinks outside the box. I don't recall him ever holding back on letting his opinion be known, no matter what.

[spiritwalking]

That's what grangran always says.

[Maybe she was using grandpa's words to describe Bumi.]

He was part of the White Lotus, right? [Jinora pulls the kettle off of the stove the moment it starts whistling.]

[tea_lover64]

That doesn't surprise me. If you ever get a chance to meet him here, I'm sure you'd agree.

[A nod as he watches how she handles the tea. You are being silently judged on tea preparation]

He was and still is from last I remember. Also the ruler of Omashu.

[spiritwalking]

I would love to meet him. And to see him and Uncle Bumi around each other.

[She does it the way her mother taught her, which is fairly accurately - though Jinora won't mind if he decides to direct her differently.]

[tea_lover64]

It certainly wouldn't be dull at the very least.

[Iroh deems it suitable, though he might do things a little differently]

[spiritwalking]

[With both cups poured, Jinora serves him first.]

Uncle Bumi always tells the wildest stories. It drives dad crazy.

[tea_lover64]

[He raises his cup in salute and has a light sip]

Oh yes? Sounds like a fun man.

[spiritwalking]

[She does the same and sips her own.]

He is. Ikki and Meelo like him best but I like Aunt Kya.
