Sokka the 48th -- [Voice/Action]

[markofthewise]

[After being sent home in his own bed, Sokka had slept in a bit, finally had some real food and then went to see Suki. By now, he figures he should check to see how things went. Thus, he has a message to leave.]

Well that was a lousy week. How's everyone else doing? Did I miss anything?

Oh and uh. I think I might have to take the week off from the smithy. Maybe longer. That goes for training too.

[... yeah, that should do. He'll hang around town acting just a bit odd. For instance, very gently and very slowly opening the doors to shops. He doesn't bother going to the smithy. He's mainly just trying to stave off boredom due to the fact he really can't do much of anything now. Stupid Malnosso.]

Uh, that's all that I know about. Attacked a little girl on a bridge, acted creepy... [Thinking now.] Yeah, that's more or less it.

[Her shoulders droop a bit]

Sokka-san, will you help me with something?

Re: [action]

[markofthewise]

Uh, well sure. [probably... if it's not embarrassing.] Help with what?

Re: [action]

Well, since I changed back to normal in Luceti, I'll probably go back to how I was if I go back to my world, right? I can't let that happen! But so far, my ideas to make sure it won't haven't worked out.

Do you know someone who can give a tattoo?

[action]

[markofthewise]

Oh, I see what you mean. I guess there's not much- wait. Tattoo? Why?

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

Because, then in my world, my body will be the same and I'll see that and even if I don't remember Luceti, I'll know what to do.

[action]

[markofthewise]

[That made absolutely no sense to him.]

Right... well, maybe you should look for this guy called Naoki. He has tattoos all over him. Maybe he'd know? If not... maybe my friend Aang. His body is tattooed too, but he's twelve. I'm not sure if they ever taught him how to actually make them.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

I see... but, isn't it a little rude if I just contact them for this?

[action]

[markofthewise]

Well uh. I could ask for you. Who knows? Maybe I wouldn't mind having a cool tattoo somewhere.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

But I don't want to deceive them, either.

Re: [action]

[markofthewise]

Asking isn't deceiving, Ami. It's just asking for the sake of asking.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

I wonder if I can really make sure it won't happen.

Re: [action]

[markofthewise]

I'm not sure, Ami. Changing the future for your own world from here... well, I don't know.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

But when we go back-

Although... until I know how to prevent it, it's probably better if I'm here.

[action]

[markofthewise]

I, for one, want to go back remembering everything here. Even the parts I don't like.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

So do I. But so far, we've heard that isn't what happens. So it's better to be prepared, I thought.

Re: [action]

[markofthewise]

Maybe thing will change. We just took down a Malnosso building, after all.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

Mm, but, we still don't seem to be any closer to going home or keeping our memories.

Re: [action]

[markofthewise]

[It's more like they're another step closer to making this place their HOME to stay.]

Well, yeah. There's that. For now, don't worry about it so much.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

Actually, I might be thinking selfishly. My world might be going along better this way.

Re: [action]

[markofthewise]

Well technically... [Time doesn't move at home, so it's not going along at all. But that's not the most encouraging thing to say.]

... we have no way of knowing. So just relax! You're on the side of good. And you know what? Once I can write without snapping a pencil in two, I'm taking you off the villain list.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

Maybe I should be left there. It's not like you're doing anything bad to those people, right? And if something happened again.... everyone would already know to be careful.

[action]

[markofthewise]

[He shakes his head.]

Relax, I doubt that will happen. Besides, you do that whole... transformy... thingy. If you ever need to go do hero-stuff, you'll need to be able to see who is on the list.

Re: [action]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

I'm not really a hero.

Re: [action]

[markofthewise]

Oh. Well, you did a good job being like one back at the facility. So if you ever decide to become one, I can see opportunities there.
