markofthewise | Sokka the 59th

[Today a not-so-unfamiliar face returns to Luceti. He is by no means happy about being here, stuck as he in a pair of New Feather pants. His old stuff? Doesn't quite fit. After all, it was clothes for a seventeen year old, not a nine year old. Maybe this 'little kid' would be happier about this if not for the fact he wasn't a mere four foot six just a week ago. He wears the indignant face of someone not at all content about being so short. He is not a happy little kid.

After waking up behind one of the stores, he goes to the clothing store first to put something on, going to the oft-neglected kid's section of the store. As it turns out, there's not many little boys in Luceti. At least not his current age. Refusing to wear girl clothing, he opts for an oversized tunic and pair of shorts that he secures with a belt. It looks even more ridiculous than the alternative. After that, he'll be on his way to House 56. After letting his housemates know he is home (and finding out about a new arrival), he decides that a mallynapping isn't going to stop him, so he heads to the smithy later to try and get work done. He may drop in on school for at least one class today, because he's trying his best to pretend this is all normal.

At some point in the day he leaves a written message, cautious to keep away from the view screen.]

Sokka here. I'm back from another kidnapping. So if you need anything at the smithy or anything, let me know. I'll get it done.

((ooc: Action him up at any point. Multiple timelines are fine here. And yeah, it's Sokka in a nine year old body, but his normal Sokka mind. He only looks cute. Replies will come from

[Well, so much for slipping out unnoticed after class. Oh well. Maybe he can find out what he missed the past week. When she approaches, he just stands there a bit sheepishly.]

Uh, hey Professor. Long time?

Long enough. How are you holding up?

Oh, you know, it could be worse. I mean, who hasn't wanted to be turned into a little kid and then have everyone treat you like one? Or better yet, think it's hilarious! So yeah. It's been a great day. [The sarcasm is palpable.]

I suppose they just aren't used to the fact that such alterations can just be physical as well. You've been taken by them a lot recently, haven't you?

Yeah, third time now. And to think, I almost went a whole year without being kidnapped once.

I suppose they have some reasoning for it. Aside from the affect, you were uninjured?

Yeah, I think I'm fine. I didn't put up much of a fight this time. I guess that helped. [Well, partly anyway. Going out without a fight is kind of, well... disheartening.]

Who can say? But it's good to have you back, in any case.

Thanks. I didn't miss anything too important right?

[Intentionally vague. School, Luceti, whatever.]

It's been fairly quiet, aside from the New Feather cycle going on. I have the assignments you missed out on as well.

[... haha. Assignments.]

You do? I mean... Uh, sure. Thanks. [He may actually end up doing them, seeing as how he's kind of unable to do his normal stuff.]

You're welcome. Would you like them now?

[It's actually a little relieving that he's being honest about his condition and not using to lull anyone into a false sense of security or as a way to get out of doing certain things.]

Uh, sure. If you've got them on you?

[That hasn't occurred to him yet. Once he's tired of people belittling him and treating him like a kid as a joke, he might start just playing along. It'll be easier.]

I have mine together, but I'll have to ask the other teachers for theirs.

Oh. Well. [A pause.] I'll just... get it all tomorrow, then.

[And he will do so. Although right now he plans to accidentally forget to pick it up, he'll have ample reason to get on top of it come tomorrow.]

All right. I'll have it ready then.

Thanks. [And then an awkward pause.] So... how's things?

They're fine. Not much has been going on, really.

Great. Good. No news is good news. At least, that's how it is here, usually. Well, good news is also good news. So... yeah.
