His words on her little balancing act brought a smile to her face. Of course he still thought of it, it had plainly excited him and she had noticed that men rarely tended to forget what excited them. She was happy that she had found something that had affected him as much as him running around without a shirt affected her. She had the good sense not to make a comment around Zuma, no point in possibly getting him excited after he had just calmed down. She offered him that smile when Zuma admitted to him being an excellent older brother, it was true, seemed to do very well with Zuma and Azah though they hardly seemed to interact these days.
That smile only faltered a little when she made a comment on Ko's master. "You shouldn't speak so of your brother's master." she corrected gently. She understood the close relationship between student and master, doing her best to respect it and her best to never speak of it unless it was a matter she knew about. She did not wish to run the risk of Kozu's ire again, even if he had told her that it would not happen again.
Xiu flinched when Zuma declared that the bending of her country was better than hers. It was simply lucky for her and Zuma that Min arrived back with the tea, or else she knew she would have said something foolish. "Thank you, Min." she helped the older woman put the old pot and cups on her tray and once she was gone Xiu set to pouring them each a cup, even if there was a slight temptation to pour it over the teenager.
