Sokka the 56th - [Voice/Action]

[markofthewise]

[Sokka woke up feeling a little odd, as most people have this event. Looser clothing, his hair practically unmanageable, and everything seeming just a little bit bigger. As he stumbles his way to the bathroom, he also can't help but feel something is missing. It becomes all to obvious what when he take care of his morning business with the throne of porcelain. After some yelling and flailing, Sokka soon discovers an all too familiar face in the mirror. One that most certainly is not his.

After this initial shock, it takes Sokka awhile to work up the nerve to break into his girlfriend's room and steal some of her clothes. Maybe it's a good thing she's not here, because she would KILL HIM. Even if he's doing his best not to look. After initially putting his hair into a typical wolf tail, he decides it's definitely not the right look for this body and stumbles through putting it up how it's supposed to be.

Eventually he works up the nerve to just... leave. No one knows Suki is kidnapped, right? Well, not many people. Maybe he can get away with just pretending to be Suki and avoid having the inevitably mockery of having been turned into a girl. Oh yes, this plan is flawless. Before heading out, he catches Raine's school announcement, prompting a response of:]

No school? Thank goodness! Wasn't going to go anyway.

[Oops, didn't mean to record that. But he takes off, to do some of his normal stuff. Drop by the smithy (he'll sadly have to explain things to Winry and Edward), pick up food at the store, and maaaaybe swing by the clothing store and pick up some girly clothing so he doesn't have to run around in Suki's stuff. He's dressed in Suki's typical Earth Kingdom apparel, although he does curiously have his sword and boomerang in addition to a pair of fans at his side. And of course, the ever ubiquitous bag of holding that on his new body, looks more like an oversized purse. Yeah, this plan? It cannot fail.]

[No school = experiment = ohdeargawd, now what.

Katara is sitting at the table, poking at oatmeal. It's morning and she's tired and it's experiment week, and so she doesn't look up when someone enters the room.]

[From the inside of the bathroom:]

Gaaaah! Where's my...!? How did I get-!? Are these my...!? THAT'S NOT ME!

[Suddenly Sokka throws open the bathroom, nearly tripping over his new feet, and looking all around panicked. Of course, that WOULD be when Katara had to wake up. Oh jeez. Maybe if he slips back into the bathroom, she WON'T notice.]

Suki, what - [Starting up because - okay, wow, when did you get back and why are you freaking out and--]

Wait, what? What do you mean that's not you? Are you all right?

[Oh snap, SNAP. He's been caught. Okay, get it together, just:]

I'M NOT SUKI! [Wow, that was even more girlishly high pitched than usual.] It's me and no, I am not alright! I've got... got... girly bits!!

Wait -- Sokka?

[That is a somewhat familiar face. Sokka blinks a bit at the (sob) taller woman and decides to say something.]

... are you looking for something?

[Action]

[mamasurgeon.livejournal.com]

No, I - Suki, what are you doing here? If you're looking for Sokka I haven't seen him yet.

[Action]

[swordsandfans.livejournal.com]

[WARNING. This is someone Suki knows, but you don't! Proceed with caution.]

Uh, no. Sokka he... he decided to go check out the desert fort. For the teleporter. Needs a good spot, right? So he asked me to check things out here.

[SMILE.]

[ someone is still coming to terms with the long train on this medievalesque gown that she has decided upon as perfect for lady cordelia de montmorency. what fine lady wouldn't want to wear a ridiculous contraption of silk? it made her more victorian wardrobe look almost sensible in comparison.

anyway, one quixotic and overly idealized experiment victim (who doesn't see herself as a victim at all) catches one of the trailing sleeve of her gown on one of your fans, miss. tug. tug, tug. ]

H-hey! [The fan ultimately comes lose and falls to the ground. Sokka turns around to pick it up.] Be a little more careful!

[ at the clatter, anne turns with surprise and an apology is fast to her lips. ] Oh, my goodness. I am ever so sorry.

[ she takes a demure step backwards. be gracious. gentle. not precocious like you normally are, anne. ]

It's fine. [She opens the fan, inspecting it to see if it got torn, then slides it back into place.] You might want to find something better for the weather.

[No it cannot.

Especially not when Charlotte is there in the clothing store when you walk in, and turning at the door opening, she waves, because she knows that person!]

Hi Suki!

[swordsandfans.livejournal.com]

[Sokka freezes at Charlotte's voice, suddenly having memories of their last clothing store encounter. Okay, keep it together. She thinks you're Suki, so...]

Hi Charlotte! How's... things?

[hazelrink.livejournal.com]

...Mom's in a really strange body.

[That's what sounds out from this morning. She sighs and shakes her head. But then a lot of people are in strange bodies]

[swordsandfans.livejournal.com]

[One day he will meet your mom, Charlotte.]

... yeah? I guess that's happening a lot, huh?

[Idly poking through some lady clothing. Okay, time to call up some Avatar Sokka to- no, Girl Sokka. She has better taste.]

[blessingone]

[...Wonder why Suki was carrying so much of Sokka's stuff? This causes her to stop outside the grocery store to watch. Not exactly stare, but she is looking in her direction.]

[swordsandfans.livejournal.com]

Hey Fenimore--

[OH WAIT. Has Suki ever met Fenimore---? Oh wait, yeah. At the beach. So this is okay.]

Something wrong?

[blessingone]

[Oh, caught. The pause is a bit weird, but she doesn't really pay it any mind.]

No, nothing's wrong. I was just wondering why you had Sokka's sword. ...And a bag like his, too, now that I think about it.

[swordsandfans.livejournal.com]

[Doh, this wasn't a good idea. Um, um.]

Oh! Well uh... Sokka, you know how he is right? Always so worried! So uh, he made me take his sword for protection. And let me borrow his bag.

[Karol hadn't quite rolled out of bed that morning, so he was unaware. Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately), Karol's had this bad habit of leaving his journal open when he goes to bed. Usually, it does no harm, at least, since the occasion of someone yelling into the journal in the middle of night is admittedly rare.

Hearing the message over the journal, he sleepily peeked over the side of his bed at the open journal, staring at it with a half-eyed expression. Did she say... No school?]

No school...? Oh... That's good...

[Voice]

[swordsandfans.livejournal.com]

[... oh, it's Nan. It's too early in the morning for him to work out if Suki and Nan know each other.]

Not like you go that often anyway, right?

[Voice]

[rending-drop.livejournal.com]

[He sleepily mumbles back at the journal. He's conscious, clearly, but barely.]

What are you talking about... I go every day there's school...

[Voice]

[swordsandfans.livejournal.com]

Uh... yeah, I think I'd notice if you did, Nan.

[Jeez.]
