Sokka the 47th - [Voice/Action]

I guess that's it for the new people, unless it starts up again this month. Well, anyway, I'm Sokka. Or Sokka Thunderaxe as some have been known to call me. I'm fine with either one.

I run the smithy here in town, known as the Slash 'n Crash, along with Edward and Winry. They both work for me. [They don't, but this is some rather obvious trolling here.] So if you need any kind of weapons made, or sharpened, or you know... some other kind of odd job. I'm the go to guy for that. There isn't money, so... the stuff is free. But we do accept favors as payment! Or food. Or well, anything. Just ask for me, Sokka. That's with an okka. [Accept no substitutes.]

[Filtered to Raine]

Speaking of which, mind dropping by today?

[Filtered to Regal and Gelda]

Sooooo. [A beat.] How did it go?

[For you action lovers out there, Sokka can be found at his usual haunts. School, the smithy, eating lunch in the plaza, or generally hanging out around his house.]

A cute hilt? Pretty? Adorable? Awesome? Beautiful?

[What other words are there?]

...Nice-looking?

Uh. Well, yeah. We can do that. I'm not sure what passes for cute on a hilt, but...

Flowers!

If you have like, a pretty saber? People know you're awesome.

[... well okay, Sokka's sword actually has lotus flowers on the hilt. But...]

Umm. Flowers, right. Any particular kind?

The pretty kind! Oh oh! If you can't do that? Think you could make the hilt in the shape of an eagle's head?!

[He is very serious (http://i51.tinypic.com/2jczc3o.png)]

Umm. Hey, how about you just draw a general shape of what you're looking for? I'll go with that.

[He draws a very crude version of this (http://i51.tinypic.com/2jczc3o.png).]

This? Think you can do that?

[Give him a second to make it out.]

That's... not too bad. Yeah, I bet I can manage that. It will take longer than usual, though.

That's totally cool. I don't like, think I'll need it too soon. Do you add the scabbard too?

... yeah, I can do the scabbard. But uh, I'll let you figure out how to make it cute after you get it.

That's so totally sweet of you! Your name's Sokka, right? I'm Poland!

[... sweet. Sweet?]

Yeah. Nice to meet you. [Just gonna feel awkward over here.]

Same. Just like, get in touch with me when it's all ready and stuff and I'll get my stuff.

Right. I'll be sure to do that.

[... hmm. But doing it for free?]

What kind of stuff do you do?

Uh. I like, love horseback riding and so I totally do a ton of that. I like house decorating too! Clothes are way cool too.

[Technically, other than being a country? He does absolutely nothing. He has a lackey for that stuff.]

[That's all spectacularly useless to him.]

I meant like, you know. Practical skills. To trade.

House decorating? Want your room to look cool?

[Come on, that's some kind of deal.]

[... right.]

If I decide I do, I'll let you know.

I used to like, do farming and stuff too? But it's pretty lame work.

Well, it's too late in the year for that anyway.

Yeah, that totally sucks, huh?

[There might be some smugness there.]

[Smugness, huh?]

I'll just have you do some farming if we're both here come next spring.

N-no way!

[Don't scare him like that! Farming is one thing he does not miss from back when he used to be super strong.]

Why not? Sword making isn't easy! I wouldn't mind having some of my own home grown veggies. Who knows if the stuff the Malnosso gives us is even real!

Oh my gosh, it's not real?!

[He's gullible.]
