❰ the reaction is actually a bit shocking to tamaki, used to shock or horror from other upper class folk when he describes to them the way that commoners live and exist. zuko...perhaps you are a man cut from the same cloth as he is, more than willing to understand the mindset of the common man. ❱

For as tragic as I find some of the ways common folk cut corners, it's always interesting to think about the how and why of it all. Practicality is the main reason for many of the things they do.

frittata forgotten at the moment, he does find something more presently useful, even if he feels he must also explain this to zuko in the interest of increasing their connection over practical, common tea-making methods. ❱
We have perhaps been deprived of the opportunity to try the instant tea, but they do have tea bags available. About as practical, but a little more time consuming if you want your drink to steep properly.
