Wang Fire 2 - [Action/Voice]

[markofthewise]

[The recent arrival of Hawky has Sokka remembering the Fire Nation. The old days... when Sokka was another person. When he was a man. A man with a beard. Not only that, but it's a rather warm day for September. Sort of like... a Fire Nation summer. And it just so happens, he has a beard. He always has a beard. So he digs out his long neglected Fire Nation clothes (which are tighter than he remembered them being), moves his hair up into a top knot, uses some red dye on his wings, and applies a layer of glue to his face and eyebrows, applying his beard and busy brows. Wang Fire is back.

He sets up a booth in front of the plaza. Beside him, on a special stand, is Hawky. Cleverly disguised as well, with a small fez (with a Fire Nation emblem) strapped on his head. He is, of course, giving free advice today. He even leaves a voice post on the journal, using a very deep voice that sounds nothing like Sokka.]

Fellow citizens of Luceti. Do you need... advice? If you do, talk to the great Wang Fire. Troubled romance, missing home, family issues, or even trouble deciding what to eat for dinner. I can help!

((ooc: Will be answering tags with beardofthewise. And yes, canonically, this is actually a convincing disguise. >.>))

Well then, you've found me! Now then, you wished to know about signs, is that right?

[hazelrink.livejournal.com]

That's right! I need to know more about them to help Brave Vesperia.

As a matter of fact.... [He reaches behind his booth and pulls out a board and paint supplies.]

We can practice right here!

[hazelrink.livejournal.com]

[...!!] Wow, you're so prepared...!

[beardofthewise.livejournal.com]

Naturally! See, the key to a good sign, is preparation. You cannot simply take paint, a paintbrush, and a sign and be successful! You need other things.

[He starts pulling out more objects.] A meter stick! Pencils! Sticky paper!

[...Oh wow he's so prepared. She's nodding, giving him full attention for now]

[beardofthewise.livejournal.com]

Now then, young lady. You'll want to start out like this...

[He draws straight lines across the board with the meter stick. He continues to use it to make nicely shaped letters. Once those are set up, he puts sticky paper below and above where the letters will go, and gets out the paint and paintbrushes.]

Now, all you have to do is paint within the lines!

Oh wow... that's really convenient! I never thought about it that way.

[Should she be painting though?]
