markofthewise | Sokka the 39th

[Nothing like peaceful summer days after bloody warfare. After having to avoid being killed by a giant rampaging reindeer the day before, Sokka has been a little slow starting the day since he was returned, opting to simply collapse in bed there and more or less die there. Village or not, he was rather attached to his bed. The one in the hotel while comfortable, was way too big. It's not until well past noon he decides to return to the world at large. This means he needs to go see people. His first stop will be the check on Raphael, which means a visit to Donatello. He unfortunately got the worst of it.

Second is a visit to Winry. He'll try her house first (it is a Sunday), then check the smithy failing that, which means he'll be able to see Edward too. Having already spoken to Brook about Chopper, he can bypass a trip to the Straw Hats and goes looking for San... for a few hours at least. Eventually he'll head down to the river to check his canoes. While he's down there, he leave a simple voice message on his journal for everyone else.]

So, what did I miss?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Not - [Never mind. It had been a lot of trouble to explain things to Isamu, and Don doesn't have the energy to go through it again.]

[He sits heavily on the couch.] How is everyone else?

[Sokka leans against the wall. He raises an eyebrow at Donatello changing the subject, but then, he can't blame him for that.]

Chopper is still recovering. Brook says he feels terrible about everything that happened. I haven't checked on San. I'll have to go looking for her later, I guess. Everyone else... I think we're all fine. [Physically. Mentally? Maybe not so much.]

[If Raph were awake, he would have something to say at this point. But he isn't, so Don will say it for him.]

Turtle luck, running true to form.

Turtle luck? [He kinda has a feeling he knows what that implies, but he asks the question before he even thinks about it.]

[He picks at the arm of the chair, to avoid having to look at anything else.]

We always get the worst of any situation.

[... thought so. Well, comparing notes isn't likely to make Donatello feel much better. Sokka stares off at the floor.]

That's rough, Don.

[Don just shrugs. There's nothing anyone can do about it.]

Did you want to see him?

[That's true. ~~Except for some sadistic muns maybe.~~ He nods.]

If that's alright. I won't wake him or anything.

[~~It was all Ash's idea.~~]

You couldn't if you tried. [He levers himself out of the chair and leads the way to the bedroom.]

[~~Somewhere she's laughing.~~]

Right. [Sokka pushes himself off the wall to follow, peering into the room once they arrive.]

[Don loiters in the doorway. He can tell from here that there's no change in Raph's condition. Not that he was expecting one.]

[If Sokka looks closer, he might notice that Raph is cold and barely breathing.]

[He's no doctor himself, but Sokka knows when something is seriously wrong with someone. He glances back at Don.]

Are you sure he's okay to be here? [With him like this... maybe the clinic was better.]

[It takes him a minute to answer the question. He keeps forgetting that he even has a choice about where to take an injured brother.]

I don't want to move him. If he needs a healer, they can come here.

[He nods at that. Although he'd like to point out that a doctor could diagnose problems that someone using healing magic would miss. But Donatello is a thinker. There's no need to point out what is likely already obvious to him.]

That's true.

[Don turns to move out of the room. Enough ogling the patient, Sokka. Raph will probably kill you if he finds out you saw him like this.]

[Sokka turns to follow. There's not much to be gained by sticking around in there.]

Hey, I know you'll be pretty busy looking after him, so let me know if you need me to bring anything for you.

I will, Sokka. Thanks.

[It's good to have friends.]

[A nod.]

I should get going then...

[He'll walk you to the door.] Thanks for coming. If you hear anything about San...

Yeah, I'll let you know. [He steps out the door.]

Take care of yourself.

(ooc: Permission to handwave that Sokka told Donnie San is fine later on?)

((Yeah sure ~~because Don is destined to never actually thread with San~~.))
