65th: The Swapping of Sokka Thunderaxe
[And now Sokka was a girl. Worse than that, he was Haruhi Suzumiya. After an enlightening conversation with that Malnosso girl, he and the real Haruhi had come to the unhappy conclusion it was better not to tell anyone what happened. Which Sokka hated the idea of, but the potential consequences of not doing it could be worse. Besides, if Haruhi could figure out how to fix all of this, he'd be back in his own body by tomorrow! Or a few days, anyway.
This, unfortunately, means having to live like Haruhi. And dress like her too. Girly top, a dress, and that stupid ribbon in his hair. As much as he wanted to just tie it all behind his head in a ponytail, she wouldn't let him do that. Can't blow their cover, after all. And then he has to follow Haruhi's schedule for things.
He leaves the house undetected that morning, eating breakfast on the go. This leaves him to try and do things that Haruhi would do. Which he is not at all thrilled about. Since he doesn't want to run into people, he ends up hitting the library to read about things that would help him be Haruhi. Like things about Japan. He'd never cared about Japan, but it seemed like he ought to know things on it by now.
After lunch (which he spends tucked away privately in the back of one of the restaurants), he swallows his anxiety and goes to visit Winry. But then he decides to look in on Shiki first at All Passions, like instructed. After that he'll warily enter the smithy, feeling oddly out of place there, to visit Winry. When these 'appointments' are finished, he'll arrive at the Brigade building. Early. Twiddling his thumbs until people arrive. Fortunately he wrote down a cheat sheet for who everyone actually is.
After the meeting (which is probably short), he'll be left with nothing to do for a few hours. That's when he opts to just hit the barracks and try to train. He'll be incredibly frustrated at the fact he seems to have lost his skill at just about everything. While he's not horrible, he's nowhere near his "A Game".
In the evening he faces the second worst part of the day - cooking. Being only skilled at cooking meat, he'll try his darndest to make a decent meal. It will be edible Shiki and Beat, don't worry. It will just be incredibly bland and very heavy on the meat. Sort of a boring exercise in chewing, really. Given that Katara has drilled family dinners into him, he'll be at the table expecting a group dinner.
Later in the evening he'll spend some time on the roof, grumbling about his fate, and working secretly on carving a piece of wood into a new boomerang. Day one was a nightmare. He doesn't think he's going to last another one.]
((OOC: Okay! So lots of teal deer up there. Hit him up at any time during the day. You can forward date stuff to later in the week if you want. His routine will be more or less the same the rest of the week. Replies will come from

wisebent!MORE IMPORTANTLY this is a body swap plot! It involves some of Haruhi's reality bending powers, so it's not an experiment/Mallynapping thing. As explained here, this means that Sokka and Haruhi's friends shouldn't notice things being that odd. If they do, it's something they'd quickly dismiss. I hope you guys will play along!))
action
What's wrong with this?
action
Nothing's wrong wit' it. Heck, you cook like this more n' I'll be showin' up early!
action
[Well, at least he won't be the only one to enjoy meaty dinners here. Hopefully Shiki won't complain too much.]
It's almost done. I think. You may as well... set out the plates or something.
action
[He almost grabs four plates on instinct, then puts one back and sets them out.]
Yo, you feed that bird a' yours the same stuff?
action
Well. A bird's a bird. Birds eat bird stuff. Not, you know, other birds.
action
[Welcome to Beat's dumb world.]
action
[He tries to pose that as a 'daring you to contradict me' sort of question, but he honestly has no idea if that's what Haruhi thinks. She's pretty weird.]
action
[Beat didn't really pay attention. He finishes setting the table and stares at it.]
Why you gotta chicken anyway?
action
action
...It's too hard to think. He gives up in under 30 seconds.]
I dunno, yo. You kinda weird n' all. Shiki says I ain't supposed ta' say that, but you are, yo.
action
[Not very Haruhi-like there. Oh well.]
action 1/2
action
action
It's not that big of a deal. Besides... Shiki could use the extra friend, right?
action
An'way, you need somethin' done? I ain't got much else ta' do.
action
Shouldn't Shiki be here by now?
Re: action
I dunno. Maybe she still at her shop. Wanna call her?
action
She's probably just running late. Let's just go ahead and eat. [He's just that hungry, okay. His own cooking makes him that way.]
action
action
So... [Wow, he can't think of anything to say.]
action
You talk ta' Shiki lately?
action
[He assumes it's normal stuff. Also, next time, he may just make his food extra spicy. You can't go wrong with super spicy food.]
