66th: The Party Planning of Sokka Thunderaxe

[markofthewise]

[Well, Sokka's in it deep now. After being forced to 'cover' for Haruhi in the Brigade, he went and made up some stupid party and now he needs to go public with it. Which... yeah, he is so not into doing. So, deep breath as he composes himself.]

Attention everyone! This is Haruhi Suzumiya, Chief of the SOS Brigade. [Okay, name and title down. He's got that. Now for the announcement.] As you should all be aware, the Autumn Equinox is September 23rd, that's eight days from now. It's also conveniently on a Friday as well. Which means we will be having a party for that. Although, technically, it might not really be the equinox. Different worlds, different planetary cycles, but that's not important. [It's getting too much into Sokka-esque technicalities] There's going to be a fall party, right in the plaza.

We will, of course, provide food and fireworks to make things interesting. If anyone wants to provide other entertainment like, say, music... have at it. The party will start at nine in the evening. Brigade members, you all know what to do! Failure to do your part will result in steep penalties all around.

[Aaaaand this is the part he hates most, but he knows it's inevitable.]

Also! We're recruiting. If you want to join the Brigade, contact me for an interview and can be... interviewed. If you like the idea of parties and other time wasting nonsense, this is probably the club for you.

[THERE IT IS DONE. Sokka will be sitting in the Brigade headquarters, after the meeting, to answer all these questions and generally hate his life. Later he'll hit up the grocery store to take some stuff 'home' for dinner. (And if that's not enough to work with, come up with something and we will MAKE IT WORK.)]

((OOC: Okay, just like last time, this is still a body swap plot! It involves some of Haruhi's reality bending powers, so it's not an experiment/Mallynapping thing. For those of you new here, it's all explained here. Replies will come from wisebent.))

Now you sound upset. [Did he blow it? He blew it.]

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

It's nothing.

[Well he's not going to call her out on it too much. Well, there's something they should probably talk about anyway.]

I'm sorry about Mr. Hughes.

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

[...] It's not something that could be avoided.

[Voice]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

Still. If you want to talk about it...

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

What's there to say?

[Voice]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I just thought you might want to. Or we could just... not talk about it. And do something else.

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Like what?

[Voice]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

Well... I don't know, I didn't exactly have any ideas in mind.

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

I don't know... [She kind of just wants to stay inside for a while, and while Haruhi's comfort is usually something she'd gladly take in a time like this... the girl's been odd lately. All the time Winry feels like she's imposing around her.]

[Voice]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, but right now he's trying to be a friend. Not a girlfriend.]

How about I bring something over. Like... muffins.

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

If you want. Don't let me take up any time you need for preparing that party.

[Voice]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

Oh, I've got the whole Brigade for that. They can handle it on their own for a little bit.

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Like I said - if you want to.

[Voice]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

Where are you right now?

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

In my room.

[Voice]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

I'll be over soon.

[Voice]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'll see you then.

[In about a half hour or so, Sokka will be knocking on that there door.]

[She had been waiting in the living room, so it doesn't take her to long to make it to the front door. When she does open it though it's done slowly and she speaks softly.]

Hey.

[Action]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

Hey. [He holds up a small paper bag he's carrying.] I brought muffins.

[Action]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

[She nods and steps out of the way for the other girl to walk in.]

Thanks. Still warm, or...?

[Action]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

[He sets a hand on the bottom of the bag. Hmmm....]

Warm enough. [He steps inside, unsure of where to go now.]

[Action]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

[Winry closes the door and gestures for her to sit at one of the couches. Winry herself will sit down at a chair.]

What kinds do you have?

[Action]

[wise-bent.livejournal.com]

Blueberry. Are those okay?

[Sitting now.]
