markofthewise | Sokka the 25th - [Accidental Thoughts]

[Sokka is busy sitting in the smithy. There's not much work to do lately, now that the New Feather cycle is winding to a close, so he's trying his hardest to get comfortable on the new couch. It's not working. His journal is lying next to him and happily recording his thoughts for all to hear.]

(( You'd think Raphael could pick a better couch. But no! This one is like a rock! I know he probably can't appreciate the subtleties of a comfort with that shell of his, but hey, I liked our old one! Stains? Who cares about stains. We could have thrown a blanket or something over it. I wouldn't have cared. Not like it would have happened if he hadn't been playing with that blowtorch anyway.

Of course, I'm probably the only one who cares. I doubt Edward ever uses it. I don't know if that guy even knows how to relax. And Winry is always at her workbench anyway. Or gardening with Haruki of all people. I don't know what she sees in the guy. Sure, he's an okay guy and maybe his Brigade isn't a complete waste of time, but still. The guy is a complete jerk. I don't think this Batmannychan guy is even all that bad to begin with. That so called paperweight probably belonged to him anyway. At least, not according to Luka.

[At this point, a brief image of a nude Luka flashes in his mind. It's hastily replaced by the image of a clubbed seal and Sokka hauling it off.]

Boy I could go for some fried tiger seal meat right now. I wonder if they even have that here? I guess I could ask Katara, but she'll probably find some way to turn it into a lecture. And then she'll punch me in the arm. Why do girls keep doing that to me? Katara, Toph... even Winry is doing it now. At least Ty Lee doesn't do it. And Suki never did it either! That's my kind of girl. Nice, friendly, and doesn't hit me. Fortunately this rules Azula out. Thank the spirits for that.

... spirits. I wonder if that wolf god will want to play fetch again. She was really good with... wait... ))

[Sokka stops as he looks up and sees the bubble above his head OVERFLOWING with words. And then to his horror, his journal is wide open just over there. Daaaaaaammit!]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

... yes. Yes it was. [DELIBERATE IMAGES OF RIVERS AND WATERFALLS.]

Has Sokka-niichan to pee? He's suddenly thinking of a lot of water falling, Luka can wait if he has to!

Wha!? No! I'm just thirsty, that's all!

Luka can wait until Sokka-niichan is done drinking too...

I'm fine. [Holds up a soda.]

Just fine. See? How are you?

Luka's fine! And she's clothed now!

Sokka-niichan worries a lot about Luka being naked.

...

Well, you know, you're not supposed to be naked.

But everyone is naked. Sokka-niichan too.

... well sure, sometimes. But not in front of other people!

You are. Always. Luka knows. Everyone is always naked, forever and ever.

No, I'm not! I'm wearing clothes right now!

But you're naked under them! Clothes aren't natural for people! People are naturally naked!

That's not the point. Do you see anyone else in the village going around naked?

Yup. They are, under the clothes. All are naked.

Okay. Let's define the word naked here. For this conversation, naked means "Not wearing clothes". Alright?

Naked means being in bare skin. Naked. Clothes aren't part of people, people wear them because of insecurities and fears!

Everyone is naked. Forever and ever and ever.

No. Just no. People wear clothes for warmth. And for common decency! And so people don't have the images of people being naked ingrained in their head!

Sokka-niichan is mental! And social imprinted! Naked is natural, everyone is naked. Luka's sure Sokka-niichan is one of those mental guys who bury people with clothes on. That's silly!

I grew up in the South Pole.

Where people would freeze to death without clothes.

But people aren't supposed to live in the South Pole.

You're just social imprinted. The South Pole is natural. Lots of people live there!

Maybe you're just mental.

U-Uh... The South Pole is natural, but humanity formed in Africa, warm areas. Humans are warm creatures, humans living in the South Pole is the result of humans not accepting their natural limitations and wanting to dominate the world.

Etto... Etto.. If Luka is mental Sokka-niichan has an obsession with people naked. U-uhm... Sokka-niichan has a complex with his body?

Sure. In your world. There's no Africa where I'm from. You don't know anything about my world.

And I don't have a complex!

There's a South Pole in my world... What is there in your world?

Then why are you so obsessed with naked people?

The South Pole, North Pole, the Earth Kingdom, and the Fire Nation.

And you're the one obsessed with being naked, not me.
