"So— it's kind of like your title...? Or a nickname? It's whatever name you want to be shown to everyone on the network when you say something online, even to people you don't know," he explains. "For example— Azula's fireprincess, like mine, whereas Sokka's username is boomerang-guy, and Gokudera's is smokin_bomb... But our friend Yamamoto's username is just yamamoto. Doesn't matter how straightforward it is. Whatever alias you want. There— type it in and it'll remember it." He leans in once more and exits quickly to go to the settings page so that Iroh can create his name on his own, as the teakettle starts to slowly whistle. "Pick something you won't regret, though, because anyone can see it," he warns. "Strangers online ask me if I'm a prince all the time now..."

He turns away to attend to the water, grimacing weakly. He'd regretted his username, apparently. Twice over. He'd made it without any forethought or warning about what it was, under poor instruction on his first day in the other world, before he'd decided he'd rather conceal that part of his identity, and now just has to live with this awkward question dishonestly and embarrassedly. He'd even had the chance to change it to something else upon his arrival in this world, but not keen on calling himself plainly 'zuko' either, for lack of a more creative name, he just went with the same username he'd had before, dooming himself to more dweeby false introductions online. Why'd he do that?!
