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.

Yeah... it kind of makes you think that maybe it's like... what would happen if you put all of the worlds together and made just one Earth with stuff from all of them. So it just copies everything else into one big, weird combination of stuff.

[Excellent deduction.]

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I don't think everything would mesh well together. Overall it'd be a gaudy place that's overcrowded with stuff.

Or at least that's how it sounds.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

It would explain why the people [Buffy] are so weird.

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

There are weird people from every world.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Yeah, but Earth seems to have tons.

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I guess I can't argue.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Oh yeah, that whole Christmas thing. Is that on your world too?

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

No. We celebrate the winter solstice, but not much else.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Pretty much the same here. We have the two Solstices and the Equinoxes.

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Back home, too. But some religions have other holidays as well.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Well there's holidays in other places. I remember hearing from my Gran how our tribe and the Northern Tribe used to meet once a year during a New Moon. That was kind of like a holiday. And then in this one Earth Kingdom village, there was Avatar Day which... well, let's just say it's not much of a holiday.

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

What about a New Years celebration?

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Yeah, but from what I can tell, our New Years isn't actually the same as the calendar they use here.

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't expect it to...

Maybe we should start setting up our own holidays here. Ones without Malnosso 'help.'

[voice]

[markofthewise]

So... just make up new ones? [Sounds a little crazy, Winry.]

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

No, no! Invite and encourage people to learn about and celebrate holidays from other worlds.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Oh. Kind of like the world sharing class... [Which, you know, Sokka doesn't do.]

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

The what?

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Something they do at the school. Everyone goes around and shares stuff about their world. Pretty boring.

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

So you're saying my idea is a bad one?

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Not bad, just more... not my kind of thing. But there's a ton of people who love that class, so it would probably work.

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Seeing how Haruki pulled off the Hanami...

[voice]

[markofthewise]

I think anything where you offer people free food is going to be successful. [It got Sokka there, right?]

[voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Luceti itself offers free food, Sokka.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

That was free-already-made food!
