To everyone who was asking yesterday, Katara is just fine now. So... yeah, thanks Ginko. We owe you one.

[With that settled, Sokka moves on to the next order of business.]

Master Souji, sorry I missed our lesson yesterday. [The previous message should explain why he missed it.]

[And then because Sokka is feeling a lot better in spite of a crappy day yesterday (because he bounces back so fast), he decides to start preparing for the future. Which means he needs a filter.]

[Filtered from Shirley and Sanji 100%]

So hey, I kind of have a date I need to prepare for. Anyone got any good ideas about what exactly I should do? I know there's typical stuff like a dinner or flowers and stuff like that. But that's kind of amateur stuff, isn't it? I want to go all out! Sure, Luceti is kind of a boring place at times, but I want to really nail this one good. [Of course Sokka means the actual date (which is merely a practice one), not the person he's dating. Feel free to get that wrong, though.]

Well, think about it. They've been dumped into a strange world, away from their homes and they don't even have the courtesy we get of the journals and the support of the other residents.

It must be scary for them, not knowing what's going on.

Oh. Huh. [He hadn't really thought of them as living creatures. Just... parasites.]

Still. Going around eating people from the inside is a bit extreme.

Yes, just a bit. [He laughs a bit.] But it is their nature. As much as we dislike it since we become prey for once.

Has she healed now? From the thing eating her?

[Food for thought. Hum.]

She's more or less back to normal now, yeah. You'd never even know!

Good, I'm glad to hear it.

Oh, and I may have to cancel our next lesson, if you don't mind? I'll make it up to you later.

Uh... sure. I'll just practice on my own. [...] Something wrong?

Practice your forms and see if you can't get someone to come in and spar with you. Focus on footwork most of all.

And...not really, no. There's just something going on that I need to take care of.

I'll see what I can do. [A village full of fighters? Easy.]

Oh. Well, you know, if I can help, let me know.

Thank you, Sokka-kun. I think right now I just need rest.

Yeah, sure. [Even if you don't seem the restful type...] have a good sleep then, huh?

The dark will do me some good, I think.

... your eyes aren't hurting are they?

Hm? Just a bit. They're more sore than anything else. Yamazaki-san is looking into it. It might be eye-strain. I was looking up at the stars for a good long while a night or two ago.

Well, you should be careful. If it's a mushi causing it, that thing gets stronger when it's in the dark.

Oh? Odd... I'll see if I can't ask Ginko-san about it then.

It's what my sister had. Better safe than sorry, right?

Yes, better safe than sorry. I'll speak to Yamazaki-san and Ginko-san about it.

Good luck!

Thank you, Sokka-kun.
