Alright, friends of Katara. This is me, Sokka. Her brother. You should already know that. She probably doesn't know it because let's face it, math is more of my thing but her birthday is coming up next month. On July 5th, no less. So if anyone wants to help out, I'm the guy to talk to. I'm thinking we should go all out on this. Something big. Something... yeah, just something big. With streamers. Stuff like that.

Uh, Regal. You think you could make a cake at the bakery? It needs to be big. Vanilla. Maybe bits of nuts on it. Not too sweet. But big. Really big. Maybe make it say "Katara" on it. And there should be candles in the shape of a fifteen. Or maybe fifteen candles? I'm not sure how that tradition works. Maybe it's fifteen tiny cakes...?

I have the you-know-what for you-know-who at you-know-where.

[He saved the BEST NEWS FOR LAST. After seeing an echo of Azula taunting him to the point of him punching her and she ended up not being real (and him falling through her and to the ground), he did some investigating and came to a pretty startling conclusion.]

~~[Filtered to... oh wait, this doesn't need a filter.]~~

Azula was sent home. I'm sure we'll all miss her so much.

[Before ending his message, he momentarily thinks about saying something about the draft. He decides against it. People will know or they won't. It's best to leave it alone.]

I know it's out of the way, but a lot of people are probably going to have lake parties. I know last year Haruki had one.

Maybe if there was someone who could teleport people up there...

I hear this guy Leon was supposed to be working on a teleporting device, but I'm not sure how far he's gotten with it.

... a teleporting device? Really? Do you think it can be done?

I've seen the miniature prototype work perfectly.

Wow! I wonder how it works...

Alchemy, I think. But not the kind Ed works with.

Oh. So not the magical kind? [Ho ho ho ho.]

Actually, I think this one would be closer to magic. You can't teleport with the kind of alchemy we had back home.

You know, I should've figured as much. [Magic, magic, magic, maaaaaagic.] Well, if it works, I guess.

If it was finished we probably would have heard about it, though. I guess that's out of the question for now.

[Aww, you got his hopes up for nothing!]

Well, the hot springs if we can find an easy way up there for people... otherwise, probably should keep it close to the village. We'll get more people that way.

Just let me know what you decide, okay?

You'll be among the first to know, Winry.

... I mean, we see each other practically every day. Kind of inevitable.

Just make sure you have my attention when you tell me. Sometimes I don't quite get things when I'm focused on my work.

Believe me, I know. [He can think of a few times when he'd be telling Winry some long amusing story from back home, only to realize she didn't hear a word of it.]

Just tap me on the shoulder, or something.

Are you sure that's safe?

Are you saying there's a reason why it wouldn't be?

[Oops! He should have said nothing.]

No! No reason whatsoever!

I didn't think so.

Seeya later, Winry. Enjoy the rest of your day off!

I will, thanks.
