markofthewise | Sokka the 51st

[This morning, the Sokka that wakes up is not the one he was before. However as he gets out of bed, he soon recognizes the room he's in. He remembered it from two years ago... how did he get back here? How was he going to get back? With a sigh, he turns to his journal.]

What's the month and cycle here?

[Best to find out how long he's been gone. He soon finds some clothes that aren't too small on him and gets dressed, heading out to see what's changed since he's been gone from Luceti. Already he knows something is wrong. If he was sent home and brought back, all this stuff shouldn't be here. Maybe some people from home are here. Or maybe... maybe his sister is still alive here. He swallows hard as he exits his room, going to explore the house.

Later in the day, he'll be roaming town, now educated about what exactly is going on. He isn't too happy about it, but he can at least catch up with some old friends before he's sent home.]

((ooc: Avatar Sokka again! From his perspective, he left for his own world in August and has been gone for two years. He has all of his memories from prior to AU, thought it may take awhile for him to remember some people. Anyone regular Sokka met after August is completely new to him. Also, replies will come from

avatarsokka. Sokka is now eighteen, taller (5'10), and more built than his icons imply (Earthbending does that to you). He has since fixed his shoop beard.))

Hmmm. [She still doesn't sound thrilled, but she'll let him explain himself, at least.] Is that all it is? When you return home, it turns into a dream?

Better than nothing, I suppose. [There was a time he hated that idea. But after leaving and coming back, he's... kind of okay with it.]

I don't know.... [Huh? Why was she disagreeing? Remembering a little bit should be better than not remembering at all, but...she really wasn't sure why, but it somehow felt sadder to her for a moment than not remembering at all. She shakes her head.] Well...it's not like it matters what I think. It's not something we could change.

Basically. We just have to deal with it. [And enjoy Luceti while you can. Might as well make the dreams interesting.]

Mm. Well, at least you won't have to deal with it for long. [She doesn't really think about that before she says it, so she doesn't really consider any unfortunate implications in it.]

[No existential crisis here. He went home last time. He's certain he will again.]

It's for the best. My world needs the Avatar.

Yeah. If he really is as--huh? [Wait. Was he trying to say...?] You...huh?

That's right. Avatar Sokka himself. The guy who's supposed to keep balance between the nations. [Do you hear that twinge of bitterness in his voice? Guess who blew it.]

...You?

Yeah, me. [~~Me, me, me.~~]

.......Huh. [She's...really not sure how to take this.] So that's the change....

Why, do you like it?

No. [Blunt.]

Too bad. Guess you just haven't had the chance to know the real me.

What do you mean? I-- ["know him just fine." Er, it's probably not very nice to directly imply that she thinks of him as a fake Sokka.]

...Well, this can't last much longer at this point, so I really wouldn't have a chance to know you.

It wouldn't be a good idea for me to stick around here, even if I had the choice.

[Luceti might be nice and peaceful... and full of babes, but he had important stuff to do.]

I don't think anyone wants to stick around here--or, at least, a lot of people wouldn't.

Well, it's not a bad vacation spot, if you can deal with the occasional experiment.

It could be worse, but I wouldn't call it a vacation. Not unless things were really bad back home.
