markofthewise | Sokka the 33rd

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.]

I think you should probably focus on not messing up the date first.

Well yeah, I figured that part out already.

Before you worry about nailing anyone I mean.

... wait, what!?

That's what you said.

I meant the date itself, not the person!

Oh.

Well, it'd help if you know a bit about the girl.

Well. She's kind of quiet and shy. Friendly though. Pretty nice on the eyes too.

All right, definitely go with something quiet. Maybe more intimate so you can hear her talk.

Do you know what kinds of things she likes, or hobbies, or anything?

Well, I think she likes cooking. And swimming. Maybe swimming. Probably swimming. Definitely the water.

Do something with the water then? You were out on the canoes for a week, right? Maybe a candlelit dinner out on the water?

Dinner on a canoe? That might be kind of hard to pull off without tipping over...

How big are your boats?

They're just canoes. You can fit two people in them. But they're not really built for a comfortable meal.

Wow. Actual canoe. Damn it's weird not to have ocean around here.

Well maybe just a picnic on the shore and then a ride on the water?

Yeah I guess... no wait! My friend Vyse has a much bigger boat! I bet that would be perfect for it!

Think you could borrow it?

Me and Vyse are best buds. He'd totally let me take it out if I asked!

Might be worth it then. So long as she really loves the water as much as you think. If she gets sea sick that could be bad.

I'll have to make sure I ask her in advance.

Do you know what kind of foods she likes?

Fish? I hope. Not really. [She likes peaches. Presumably.]

You might want to find that out too while you're at it.

Maybe I need to go have a talk with her. See what I can't find out. Subtly.

Very subtly. Or get another girl you trust to find out. Hn. Or make a game of it in the journals so it makes it look like you're asking everyone.
