Sokka the 67th - [Action/Voice]

[Well, apparently the experiment was over. Sokka was glad for that. He was also in his rightful body. He had to suffer a kiss from Haruhi for it, but that seemed worth it to have his body back. A small price to pay and all that. That meant that with all the madness over, he could finally get back to work. He felt rusty, but once he was back in the smithy, everything just felt right. But he also didn't have much in the way to work on, which meant he was going to have to make a courtesy call to Luceti for work.]

So... that was one of the weirder experiments. But it was pretty harmless. I'd rate it about a three on the annoyance scale. I have no idea what I'm supposed to do with all these costumes I ended up with. [Maybe he can give them to Shiki. Surely she wants loads of peasant clothes.]

Anyway, there's a weapon shop in town - the Slash and Crash. Yeah, I know, cool name. I came up with it myself. Anyway, things are slow-ish around here, so we're willing to take some requests and commissions for stuff. Or, well, I am anyway. I can't make guns or anything, but your swords and spears and stuff? We've got that. We can also do repair or maintenance work too. So... just let me know. Or come in. That works too.

[With that out of the way, Sokka starts fixing his work area, noticing now that Haruhi managed to get it a little out of order. He'll spend the rest of the day doing manly things, like staring at his reflection in the fountain and sometimes flexing just a little to remind himself he's no longer a tiny five foot tall girl. On the way home he stops to stare at the Brigade building, thinking back to being in charge there. He then decides obviously he doesn't miss that at all and goes to get some food. He might also be willing to help make dinner tonight. He's had a little practice this past month.]

[Just walking around when Chuchu when--what. ...what is that guy doing. Is he flexing? ..At the fountain?

Yellow and Chuchu are thoroughly confused now um. what.]

[Yup. These muscles are looking pretty good. He pats his hand on a muscle before he catches her in the corner of his eye. A little embarrassed, her turns around ready to explain until he recognizes that face.]

... Yellow?

[Yeaaah, dem muscles. ..Not that Yellow's thinking that. She's just completely confused. Forever. And then even more so when he speaks up. How does he know her name...? She'll just smile and wave for now.]

Umm, hi! [..Should she apologize for staring awkwardly um.]

[By that reaction he can immediately tell she doesn't remember him. Well. That's disappointing. She even looks shorter than he remembers. (Or maybe he just got taller.)]

... hey. I'm guessing you... don't remember me.

[Or maybe both! Regardless, she cocks her head to the side a bit, even more confused now. She's still not aware of the fact that people can and do come back here, even after leaving.]

Er... I don't, sorry. ...Do I know you...? [Trying to think of whether or not she does but... yeah, nothing. As far as she knows, she's never met the guy.]

[Jeez, does he get to be the one stuck explaining this? He should punch Gold in the face or something.]

... apparently not. Um, let's just say you were here before? But then, you went back. And came back, apparently, not remembering it. [...] This kind of thing happens a lot. Hi, I'm Sokka.

[~~He should.~~ I mean. Hello Sokka.]

Oh, really? That's... strange. [Sneasel's emphasis on this place being weird never seizes to be completely right.] I-I'm sorry I don't remember... But it's nice to meet you again[?] Sokka! I guess me [re?]introducing myself isn't needed, huh? [..this is so confusing.]

It's okay. Really. I'm uh, kind of used to this by now.

[Even if it's depressing and kind of sad. BUT HE WILL LIVE.] How long have you been here?

[...sob you're making her feel bad, Sokka. Just gonna scratch her head a bit at that, possibly looking slightly embarrassed. Apologizing again probably won't help so.]

About a month now, I think. So not very long at all.

[SHE SHOULD BE BAD. How dare she not remember!!]

Oh. Well um, welcome to Luceti. So... first experiment. Fun, right? [Of course it isn't. Even if it was one of the milder ones.]

[sob.]

Thanks! Oh, that was one of those experiments? That was uh... I guess it was kinda exciting in a way! ..Really weird though. Do those happen a lot..? [She doesn't really know how to feel about it, seeing as how she was frolicking around with Red, Gold, and Silver, wearing fake mustaches, frilly clothing, and giant hats. ...Though the latter is nothing new to her. Regardless, musketeers. Yeah uh. That was... er.]

We get at least one every other month. Sometimes more or less. That one was pretty harmless as experiments go. [A shrug.] A good one for someone new anyway.

I guess I'm glad that I started out with this one then! It didn't seem too bad, so. [Of course, she'd much rather prefer not having any at all, but...] But if that one was harmless, does that mean that others could actually be harmful...?

Depends on what you call harmful? I've never been, you know hurt by one. But then you know, people have their emotions. And those get involved. And... yeah. [Gosh, he hates talking about experiments. He'll focus on what wasn't present the last time Yellow was here.] What's with the cat?

[She can tell. And so she won't press on about it. Instead, she'll look around briefly.] What cat?

[No really, where is this cat? Yellow sees no cat--oh. Ohhhh. The Pikachu following her around takes this as a cue to hop up onto her shoulder and wave at Sokka.] You mean her? This is Chuchu! She's one of my friends. [Huh. Was she not here when Yellow was here last?]

She seems... nice. [Kind of weird looking though, but he's not one to talk.] Pokemon, right?

[He has the general idea of what they are, by now. When trainers first started showing up in Luceti, they were without their Pokemon.]

Yep! She's a Pokémon. A Pikachu, to be exact. If you know Red, he has one too. His is a boy though. [Chuchu nods as she explains.] Oh, Chuchu says hi, and that it's nice to meet you.

[He remembers Red, but he wasn't aware he was back. Go figure.] Oh. Well... tell Chuchu I say hi back.

Well, she can understand us, so.. It's just more of a matter of her not being able to speak like us. Right, Chuchu? [The Pikachu nods, then waves again at Sokka. See she heard you!] She wasn't here last time though?

[Just like Momo! Only not really. Momo just seems to understand people.] No. But that was a while back. None of you guys had your pets with you.

[Oh Momo~ ~~I really need to watch more Avatar.~~]

Oh, really...? I'm glad that they're able to come now then, at least. I'd be really worried about them otherwise. [Clinging to Chuchu. BABY DON'T LEAVE ME.]

[... that poor rodent.]

Well technically you wouldn't need to. They'd just be frozen in time where you last left them.

...Eh? Really?! That's... [..Kinda awful? Though being stuck in stone for a while probably makes that biased. Maybe. ..Maaaaybe. Conflicted here.] ...I-I don't know... But at least then I know that they're okay without me. [Now it's just a matter of missing the heck out of them.]

It's better than everything going on without you, anyway.

Yeah, that's true... [She'd probably feel at least a little left out. Plus what if her friends needed her help?] D'you have any friends here too, Sokka?
