Sokka the 53rd - [Action/Voice]

[markofthewise]

[Sokka is still out at the ocean, only with the Gaang and those Ferines ladies. It's a bit cold, but hell, it's the ocean and camping out in front of it is pretty awesome. Good thing he came crazy prepared for it. Except for, you know, a boat. So much for seafood. If for some reason you're in that vicinity, feel free to pester him. But as he gets a chance, he opens up the journal for catch up with people on the other side of the mountains.]

Well the ocean isn't going anywhere, I don't think. But it's not getting any bigger, so I guess Luceti won't be flooding. Good news? Now I just- [A lemur suddenly crowds the screen and Sokka has to shoo him off.] NO! Momo, the journal isn't for sitting on.

Yeesh.

Anyway! Now I just have some of my canoes over here... I wonder if that teleporter-building guy can get a new one out here or something? Or maybe if there was a railway over the mountains... or in the tunnels! Too bad there's no airships around here, that would make things easier. If Appa was still around, the trip back would be a lot easier...

So... how's things? Back in the village and stuff.

[Actually it's less voice than some random sighing and mumbling and growling sounds.]

[markofthewise]

[Well, while no one is talking, Momo is just staring at the page and dropping some nuts on it. Give Sokka a moment to shoo him away.]

[voice]

[all7seas]

It could be done. Airship.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

I know that. I've been on them! In fact, I played a crucial part in their creation back in my world. It's just a matter of getting a power source for the propeller... and fuel to feed the fire.

[all7seas]

Well whatever happened to that fire demon what was hanging about, then?

[markofthewise]

... fire demon? [Demon powered airship. Well, it's certainly a novel idea, Jack...]

[all7seas]

Met him at All Hallows, and I've a feeling he'd be more than up to the job. Unless he were sent home, that is...

[markofthewise]

So you're willing to put your life in the hands of a fire demon while hundreds of feet in the air, huh?

[...]

Well if he's reliable, you could be on to something.

[all7seas]

Think of it, Thunderaxe: fire demon. Powerful cannons. Black-as-night sails. She'll be a thing of beauty!

[markofthewise]

Okay first, no sails. Well, I mean, we could do sails, but they'd have to be on the sides. The balloon goes on top. Cannons would be a bad idea. Besides the whole not actually having those, the force would throw the airship off course.

[all7seas]

How'll you be fashioning this balloon, then?

[Yes, there will be cannons. Stop ruining it, Sokka.]

[markofthewise]

Well, we'll need to find some strong, durable fabric and lots of it...

[all7seas]

Sailcloth? [He's got plenty of that, for his boat. Not that he's willing to share it or anything, but--curious.]

[markofthewise]

Probably not. Not for the balloon, anyway. I'll have to see what I can do. [And figure out what exactly the Mechanist did to make his.]

[all7seas]

[There's more mumbling and eventually something that sounds like "Thunderaxe" and then Jack's journal will shut off. Think of this what you will.]

[markofthewise]

... what did I say?
