Sokka the 56th - [Voice/Action]

[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.]

[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?

Yes! Of course it's me!

Well, how was I supposed to know? You look just like--

--Suki! [And right about here is where all of the hilarious wrongness of this situation strikes her, and Katara, helpful younger sister that she is, begins to laugh.]

Oh man. [laughter] You are so lucky she's not here.

[GLARE.]

I'm glad you find this so funny! [He is kind of glad, though. Oh man, does that mean Suki is in his body? That's how body swaps work, right?]

But what am I supposed to do!?

Close your eyes?

[Sorry, it is too early for her to be helpful. Try again later.]

Yeah, thanks. Real helpful.

[He stomps past her, towards his room and... stands there for a bit, staring down at his new body. Then glances over at Suki's room. HMMMM.]

[Pffffff. Still laughing a little, Katara... well, okay, she follows him.]

Hey, Sokka. If you want, I can handle the... [she gestures vaguely] wrappings.

[Considering all he has on is a pair of pants, that are barely staying up, and the tunic he slept in... oh jeez, this is so awkward. But this may be better. If Suki knew he looked and touched...]

Uh, that. Yeah, let's do that. [He glances back at her, noting that they are basically the same height now. That's just weird.]

[Well, mark one more thing down on the list of things Katara never thought she'd have to do.]

All right, just - hold on a second.

[/brb, raiding Suki's panty/wrapping drawer.]

[In the meantime, Sokka is just going to follow Katara in the room, a little dumbstruck. He notices the mirror in her room and steps towards it. Now that he's had time to get used to it, he's able to not freak out. He starts making faces at himself, finding it all too amusing to see Suki making faces she never usually does. By the time Katara has found what she's looking for, Sokka will have grown bored amusing himself and will be pulling his tunic forward, about to glance down.]

[Oh no you didn't, son.]

Sokka!

... sorry! Sorry! [Letting go, turning away from the mirror.] I couldn't help it. [It's not like he won't see SOONER or later.]

[You have to wait for permission! >=|]

Ugh! [Boys are so gross.]

Just - turn around [away from the mirror] and close your eyes.

[FIIIIINE. He does so and closes his eyes. He's not sure what is more awkward. Being a girl or the fact he's about to be undressed by his sister.

... okay, being a girl is. But still.]

You better not tell anyone about this.

Are you kidding me? [She isn't even going to want to THINK about this.

...but there's also no way that she's going to promise not to use such awesome blackmail material. Even if Sokka will just win brownie points from Suki for being such a quasi-gentleman.]

Hands up.

[Sokka raises his hands ~~like he just don't care~~.]

I could just do this on my own, you know. [Thanks to his time in Luceti, Avatar Sokka, and dammit, girl Sokka, it wouldn't be anything he hasn't seen before.]

Just think of how happy Suki will be for your consideration. [Off with the tunic! And she begins wrapping the long strip of cloth around him - her - whatever - with brisk and efficient movements. ~~This would be so much easier if they'd been introduce to modern underwear.~~]

And it's not any different than when I had to help Zuko bathe after he got back.

I'm sure Suki will be thrilled.

[Sokka is doing his best to imagine that there's nothing odd about this and tries to find his happy place. Which is hard, because Suki is his happy place. ~~Sadly, he knows all about modern women's underwear because of Avatar Sokka. He's just never introduced Suki and Katara to it for... obvious reasons.~~]

... exactly how much help did you give Zuko anyway? [Because until now he'd never thought of it and.... yeah.]

Enough. [She replies shortly - yeah, she's not going there.]

And if you're lucky, maybe she'll never have to know.

[...her brother is in no way that lucky.] There. [She secures the wrappings firmly.] You're done.

[Sokka opens up his eyes and looks down. It's the weirdest thing having to wear them. He resists prodding at them for now.]

Hopefully she won't notice me borrowing her clothes too. Mine don't exactly fit anymore. [He instinctively pulls his pants back up, as they are starting to slip down again.] And I'm definitely not wearing yours.

[Sorry, were you talking to Katara? Because she finds herself suddenly... unable to speak.

Which make sense. Because she's suddenly been turned into a four foot long replica of their village in the South Pole.

Give her a second to freak out completely silently here, until she figures out how this whole 'projection' thing works.]

[Sokka turns around, holding one of Suki's tops.] How does she even fit into-

[... what. He kneels down and stares at the village... and pokes one of the buildings.]

Where'd this come from? Hey Katara! Look at this!
