Musei stopped, and crossed his arms. "Niima! I never said you were a bad teacher, okay?!" He sighed, frown on his face. "I just said I didn't learn much because of the time constraint!" He wanted to smack Niima with his staff, but he rather preferred to stand there.
"Stop saying that you're a bad teacher!"

Taizen wasn't exactly sure what to do, actually, he felt like he was creating a barrier between Musei and Niima, and normally, for someone like Taizen, that would be a good thing. But, he didn't want Niima to have barriers like him. Musei seemed sorta irritated, and Taizen was in no position to help anything. So, he simply stood there, with a "I'm not sure if I should get involved in this" Expression on his face. Maybe if it wasn't Niima and Musei, he could logically reason and mediate between the two, normal people were easy to manipulate, however, these two...

"Didn't learn much was your words. Sorry for assuming.." She whimpered tiredly. "And if ye had been watching the spars Musei you would of learned some things...sorry..I'll shuddup now."
Taizen was being uberly quiet and her hands slipped away. "We should go find a place to rest. For all of us.."

Taizen felt that he had made some error in his decision, and regretted that his decision left his hands lonely. "yes, lets. Before it get's too dark... I worry you all have been sleeping irregularly, and improperly, lord knows the two of you been sleeping in some tree, rather than a proper bed." Taizen commented, heading off, before turning to give the two a smile he had manufactured, "Would that be considered a well placed joke?" He asked conversationally.

She blinked at Taizen's tease. Though she had been sleeping irregularly it was simply because she had to protect her lil brother. She gave Taizen a look as he stated 'where' they had been sleeping and immediately her fingers went poking at his sides. "Trees. Ha! Didn't know what is what you called your boats back home." Lil joke was returned. Return fire! boom boom boom!

Taizen smiled a bit glad to see Niima return to her old 'dont let an enemy joke go without retribution' self. "Heh, we usually have give things good names. For example, any small, and furry creature, should be called a 'grizzlybear' or some sort. A terrifying name, sounds fitting right? Why would we call something like that oh out of a hat... 'Souk-souk...?'" Taizen ignored Niima's fingers, even if he was ticklish, (No one had really bothered to check you see.) the layered clothing nullified her playful pokes. The price; Taizen was baking. 'course, Taizen was a master at disguising emotions, and emoting, he didn't seem hot at all. "Musei, would you object to being called 'souk-souk?' Sounds terrifying enough...?"

Musei paused. "And why would I want to be called that? My name is Musei. Not 'souk-souk'." He laughed, shaking his head. "Who would want to be called 'souk-souk'?"

A sour look crossed her face quickly as she listened to the two. Obviously Taizen had no clue how significant that word was to emotionally attached couples. With a swift kick behind his knee she grumbled.
"Tor-sime. The both of you." She pouted a bit and moved away, either pouting cause Taizen wasn't ticklish or the fact Taizen was making fun of the affectionate nickname she had given to him in the past. She started walking off to find some sort of inn for the lot of them to sleep. Hand lifting, fingers started to scratch at her skull and ruffling her titian hair. Mutters, "Men..you show them affection and they tease you over it. Pff."

"Ah...!" Taizen said releasing a sort of hiss through his teeth at having meen struck. He wobbled over a bit before regaining his posture, he had a small smile on his face, embarrasment not one of the things Taizen showed unless caught off guard. Truthfully, he expected Niima to retaliate... With words... But, this kind of retaliation was okay too. The two seemed to completely forget about the feud. If it could be called that. "'Tor-sime?' Please tell me that's not another animal..." Taizen said in a stage whisper to Musei, so that Niima could just barely hear. He followed her all the same, a pouting Niima was a Niima he'd gotten used to.

Musei laughed, a smile breaking through his face. Probably the first smile he'd ever given Taizen. "I'm guessing she's talkin' about something ugly, considering she's talking about us." His eyes looked up at Niima and shook his head.
"Besides, if a souk-souk is what I think it is, I hate 'em."

Her hands clasped at the small of her back and she looked forward though answered for Musei. "It's symbolic among my birth village also for someone we love. A 'affectionate' nickname. And no, Taizen..Tor-sime is not an animal."
Finding the inn, she moved inside, giving quite a odd look from the man behind the counter. Yeah...yeah..she stood out she knew this. "Three rooms, sir." There was a bit of an exchange between the two, voice wise. Coinage to pay for the room was offered and keys where given to her. Turning on her heels she moved towards Musei and Taizen, offering their keys respectively and in silence. She knew she shouldn't get upset over it. And eventually..she wasn't.

"Besides, if a souk-souk is what I think it is, I hate 'em." Taizen replayed in his mind silently, he laughed inwardly. If he was 'souk-souk', then Musei hated him. Well, it wasn't quite directed towards him, it was directed towards the animal it represented, or who knew, maybe he was what Musei thought it represented. But, Taizen gave him the benefit of the doubt. Before speaking again, Niima spoke first. Explaining the new vocabulary words. "Ah... And here I thought it was used detrimentally..." Taizen said with a tone of apology, the smile on his face seemed to change to a 'woops' expression, it even seemed a little apologetic.
However, the apologies Niima deserved were not uttered because well... It wasn't Taizen, atleast not in front of Musei...? Well, it didn't matter, because when they found the inn, and Taizen found people eye balling Niima -- lustful, wary, angry, it was all the same to him -- He had half a mind to turn them into icicles.
Problems with that idea? 1) He was not to attract attention/danger for Niima. 2) He was a general in the south pole, he couldn't let that get around... 3) Niima would probably get irked if he did something because of actions someone did not do.
And onto the list of problems at hand... Niima was angry, or atleast a little flustered.

Musei nodded. "Thank you, Niima." He wandered down the hallway, looking for his room. Finally matching the room to the key, he stuck it in, turned the knob, and went in.
He paused for a moment at the luxuriousness, and sat down on the bed, hopping up and down to test the bed, see if the springs could make him soar.
Besides, he wasn't involved in what the adults had going on. No, it was for them to figure out, talk about. He didn't want to bother either of them by being there to talk about it. Laying back on the bed, feeling the sheet crinkle around his form, he stared at the ceiling. Finally, he sat back up, shrugged off his backpack, and set the staff against the wall.
Inadvertently leaving the door open, he sighed. He was tired, sure, and sleeping...sure sounded like...a good idea...
His eyelids grew heavy, and his body seemed to float with comfort. With legs dangling off the bed, and the inner part of his elbow across his eyes, Musei dropped off into sleep.

Her brows lowered as Musei left. She felt like she had in some terms upset her brother. She watched him go before following suit. That is, until a older man..maybe early 20s..approached her. Apparently eying her the man spoke to her, words that didn't quite touch her ears. Or simply words she was too tired to acknowledge. It was only when a hand rose to touch her elbow that her mismatched gaze shot up warningly. This caused the man apparently to release her elbow and capture her chin, barking something about how impolite she was being and how airbenders needed to learn their place.
Though cross, a hand simply slapped the man's hand away and she moved away, leaving the dumbfounded man standing in her quake. She paused long enough to make sure Taizen was following so that he..well..basically didn't freeze up the whole inn.

Taizen moved the key around in his fingers, a fire nation inn... Couldn't say he'd been to many of those, not that he'd been in many inn's at all, but still, he had a vague curiosity of how much different it might be than an earth kingdom inn, the firenation had enjoyed well over 100 years of metal working in the last war, and they had become expert crafters if metal, (Though if you wanted the very best steel you'd best go to an earthbender of the highest discipline.) Taizen brought the Key back down. "So, yor not mad are you-" He began, when an older man came by, and grabbed Niima's arm, spewing nonsense. Taizen's hand moved to his skin of water, the water inside swirled noislessly, eyes narrowed. The man's arm was shifted to her chin, and Taizen decided on the neck as the point of decapitation, Niima slapped the man's hand away, and as Taizen drew the whip of water from the skin, Niima's hands found his, dragging him away, He growled inwardly. "Let me find him at night, the world would be better less one firenation citizen." Taizen said when they were away from the crowds.
