markofthewise | Sokka the 64th

[Video]

[Well, there it stands in all its glory. Sokka has the journal camera facing away from him, showing off his new boat, that looks like this (or like this when full mast), sitting out in the water. For a lack of other vessels, two canoes are hoisted and secured on either side, those being the Aila and Maza respectively. On both sides of the ship is painted something like this (only less lazy and technically saying '海洋精神' but this is Luceti okay). After getting a good view of the waves crashing on it, Sokka turns the journal back around to himself.]

So there it is, The Ocean Spirit, it's finally finished. All thanks to Brave Vesperia and other people. So... yeah, thanks everyone. Good job. We'll have its maiden voyage soon. Speaking of which - Hey Toph, you mind coming out here and making a dock? It would be... well, a lot more convenient.

Anybody who wants to come out and check it out, just use the teleporter in the barracks. I'll be out here on the beach for awhile.

[END transmission. He'll be there for most of the day, until the evening when he heads home for the usual dinner time.]

((ooc: To everyone who volunteered their characters for this, including BV people... sorry I didn't get this more organized oocly. In any case, feel free to assume any tasks your characters might have done during the construction. It was a group effort!))

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

You say that like it'd be a bad thing! What, don't want your masculine authority in the house challenged?

[Because we all know Zuko is already disqualified.]

Maybe. I have been the man of the house for over a year running now. I'm even older than Zuko now.

[Even though Zuko doesn't count.]

Exactly! I think your term is up. Time to hand off the responsibility to someone newly bearded.

Hey, if you manage to get a real beard and it's all yours.

You're gonna regret those words, Sokka. You just wait!

[And--oh, sad day. The root beer float is gone.]

Well it's not like I said I'd keep living there if it came to that.

[The day Toph becomes man of the house is the day he and Suki move out.]

I think I need a refill.

Yeah, me too.

[She'll slide her mug across the table for the convenient barkeep to refill.]

Come on, I'd be a great head of household! No chores, no assignments, no bedtime...it'd be great!

Hey, you make it sound like all that stuff is my fault!

[If you want that to happen, you need to become the WOMAN of the house.]

[Heaven forbid!]

Well, since you're Katara's brother, she can push you around more than someone she isn't related to. Like me! I'd make sure I had the final say.

[Oh. Oh really.]

That is not a fight I want to be home to see.

Oh, we won't fight. [She pauses to nom a spoonful of her fresh, new float.] Because I'll be the clear winner right from the start!

[Big ol' slurp from his spoon here, followed dryly with:] That's sure to go over so smoothly.

It will! You just wait. When I'm man of the house, everything will go as smooth as possible.

I'll just count myself lucky that it won't ever happen, then.

You just wait, Sokka. You just wait.

[No, really. YOU JUST WAIT.]

[Yeah, yeah. He'll wait for nothing to happen. He just gives an amused smirk and finishes off his float.]

[And she finishes hers off as well, making sure to lick all remaining traces of float from her lips.]

See? I was just saving it for later.

One day you're going to make some guy very, very happy. [You know, if he doesn't care about hygiene.]

Now, why would you say a thing like that?

[Seriously. They were having a perfectly good time until he had to go make a comment like that.

Make a guy happy. Ugh.]

Well excuse me, my bad.

[Guess thirteen is still too early for that!]

[Darn right it is.]

Welp, I think it's time for my afternoon meditation.

[By which Toph means sleeping in a pile of rocks in the backyard.]

[Well then, Sokka gets to his feet.]

I've got a boat to look after too. Seeya tonight.
