Sokka the 30th - [Written]

[markofthewise]

[This has been brewing in his mind since yesterday. He decides to finally act on it. Katara, Toph, Zuko, Aang... they all had masters to learn their styles from. Sokka? He had fifteen years of pretending he was a warrior and a mere three days under a real master. Well, this was Luceti. He had nothing but time here. So after he's home for the night and dinner is done, he puts together the following filter]

[Filtered 100% against the Straw Hats, his friends (and anyone from his world), and your usual villainous suspects.]

I'm looking for someone with experience willing to teach fighting. I don't have any special powers, so if your style involves lifting ridiculously huge swords or shooting fire from your hands, forget it. I want someone who can fight for real. I'd prefer fighting with my own sword, but I'll try other styles. I can't offer much in return... but I can try to work out something in exchange.

If I sign up with anymore people, I don't think I'll learn much of anything. Practice sounds good though.

Understandable. I am definitely open for practice, not like there's much else to do around here, right?

[markofthewise]

For most people, I guess.

Oh, so you've found something besides training to occupy your time then?

[markofthewise]

I run the smithy. And I've been building canoes. And I go to school. Sometimes.

[renaisprince.livejournal.com]

Sometimes? That sounds a bit like what I did. My sister would then scold me for skipping out.

I never went to school in my world. There wasn't one to go to, so I learned from my gran and on my own. As for this school... I like to learn, sure. But there's some things that aren't that practical.

I'm guessing magic and things like that from your message?

[markofthewise]

... I learned some Filial magic. I meant stuff like history from other worlds. Or art. Or reading. The first one is pointless and I'm already good at the other two.

[renaisprince.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I was never a fan of history either, and that was the history of my own world.

[markofthewise]

I don't know much of our own history. But that one wasn't by choice. We didn't have much in the way of written records where I was born.
