[...This book is so, so weird. She's still not comfortable talking into the thing and she's only done it twice so far. But, might as well leap right into the fire. Being impulsive isn't quite her thing, but hesitating isn't either]

Is this working...? Yeah, I think so- Good evening everyone. I just arrived yesterday and I thought I should introduce myself; my name's Asami. [...] And... if anyone wants to help me with a few things I'd really appreciate that.

[She's sure the people in the Avatar cast could help her with most of these too, but she's imposing enough by having slept in Sokka's room last night (reducing him to the couch) and she needs to figure out a few things here like somewhere else to stay, new wardrobe, her gauntlet, all that stuff.]

Other than that, does anyone like sports? I'm fond of racing and probending, myself.

[...there, that's a conversation starter too.

Bonus Action: While she's looking for people to do it with her, either way she'll be hitting up All Passions, the Item Shop, looking for a room in Community Building 5, and surveying the houses around the Avatar House (56)]

[Pinged, what]

I'll help you with whatever you need, Asami-chan~! [yes, lady he has never met, he will move the sun and stars if you give the word]

[Oh... wow. That's- something, at least. They seem nice]

That's really nice of you to offer! [...] -chan?

Oh, my apologies! Would you prefer just Asami?

I'm not sure! I just don't know why you added the -chan so I'm a little confused, actually.

Aaah, it's just a custom where I come from - we add extra syllables to a person's name, like a sign of respect. "-chan" is the one used for girls. [And admittedly kinda cutesy, but this is Sanji, after all.]

So it just signifies that I'm a woman?

[Then what's the point of it...]

[... y'know he never thought about it that way]

I suppose that's one of the meanings, yeah.

I could just not be getting it, but it doesn't seem very necessary to me. If it makes you more comfortable though, I don't mind. And your offer's sweet too [If a little... forceful sounding] - Maybe you could point me in the direction of where I could find a classy dinner?

[he deflates a little, worried he might've insulted her.] No, Asami is fine, too!

And there's Seventh Heaven, if you wanna try food from all over the universe! Me or one of my chefs can attend to you.

[...You know she really can't help but want to play a bit. She's still not 100% comfortable, but she's more than she was the other day]

Are you confident in your Seventh Heaven's class?

[Oh gurl no you didn't. There is a distinct note of pride in Sanji's voice all of the sudden]

I absolutely guarantee it! It'll be some of the best food and service Asami's ever had!

Scorpion-shark fin soup? [But all the same, there's some rustling as she gets up] But no, maybe some directions first? I'll take you up on it.

Do you know where the plaza is? Seventh Heaven is right next to the clinic and Good Spirits, the bar. There should be a sign right in front.

[... But that dish] Scorpion-shark fin soup... [To be honest, he isn't sure if she's joking or not, and already has concocted four different alternate recipes on the fly] Is that a real dish from your world, Asami?

It is, but if you don't know what a scorpion-shark is I wouldn't attempt it. [She's not super familiar but they have venom sacs, right? It's probably one of those things you'd need to be careful in preparing. Okay, so] But I do know where the plaza is. I'll see if I can find you.
