Sokka the 71st - [Action/Voice]

[Today, Sokka starts out with some simple messages for the journal.]

I know this is pretty late, but... Luceti has a way of causing delays. I got a lot of orders two months ago and they're all finally finished. If you haven't already picked them up, then... well, you should do that. I think you'll be pleased. [ooc: if you want to assume they already picked this stuff up a while ago, that's fine too!]

So, now that it's nice and warm these days, how do people feel about... fishing? I just made my own fishing rod, so I'm thinking tomorrow morning? Fishing time. On the river, maybe. Or I could bring out one of the boats and head to the lake. Some company wouldn't hurt. As long as you're not the noisy kind. I uh, actually want to catch some fish.

20th

[For today, Sokka works his regular shift at the smithy. From morning until the afternoon, he's at the smithy. There's not much to do now that he's done, so he straightens things out, hangs out on the couch with an alchemy book in his face, or if he gets bored with that... he reaches for his fishing rod under the couch and does a few practice casts. If he thinks no one will catch him doing it. Winry wouldn't approve. 8|

In the afternoon, he'll be around House 56 in the front and back yard, with a can of dirt and pushing over rocks and stones looking for worms underneath. A good fisherman needs his bait, after all! And he wants to be ready for tomorrow!]


21st

[As soon as his sparring practice is over, Sokka sets himself up on the southernmost bridge in town. Sure, it's a little gloomy today, but still time to fish. He has a chair, he has a fishing line, he has a cold box to put fish in, and he has not shortage of snacks and drinks. About ten minutes into his fishing, he gets drenched. Watch as poor Sokka has to gather up his stuff and flee back home. Later when he has an umbrella, he dejectedly heads to the smithy to put in a few hours. And then a few more hours later at the library to do alchemy research. No fishing today. :(]

22nd

[After a rainy day and rainy night, Sokka wakes up to A BIG BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW. He'll try to rush through his morning training, that way he can head to the river west of his house and ready a canoe. With a clear sky above, he's going out to the lake for fishing. There's room enough for two, for anyone eager to join. Following that, he'll be out on the southern lake fishing, cooking fish on the shore for lunch, and enjoying a good solid day off. STRESS FREE.]

[ she comes across him while he's cooking his fish. it's the smell that draws her attention -- up until then, she was up in the tree-tops picking at the winter-damaged treehouse. her and jack's treehouse. the one that was wholly separate and hidden from the tree-village constructed during that foray into fairytaledom. but as she's climbing down, she smells food.

her stomach rumbles; her feet and nose take her straight to the lakeshore. ]


Huh. Sokka. [ a smile. she loosely crosses her arms over her chest and strides over. ] Got a little extra for a grumbling tummy?

Back there. [ she points over her shoulder. ] Or...back and up there. Just been doing a little climbing.

You know, you aren't going to catch anything but trouble if you do that in here.

[Who knows when Yun arrived at the smithy, but she's been observing the practice casts from riiight behind him, peering over the top of the couch.

Try not to hook any poor random objects, Sokka.

Well, I guess I could come, too. But that'd mean I'd need to bring Kyle.

[Hello, Sokka. Your teacher is here, wondering what is going on.]

You're certainly in a rush today.
dragoneer: (It's just swell really.)

Welllll, if you just want to eat fish, there's the grocery store for that.

[Yeah, the fishing pole was a hint. Just a tiny one.

Souji sighs. Oh, Sokka. Well, boys will be boys. He taps his training sword on his shoulder.

How about this then. If you can block three attacks in a row. You can go before your usual time.

I'm not. Normally.

[ she sits down next to the flames and tilts her skewered meal near. ] Call this a special instance.

[It's the canoe that really catches her attention. Although she's gotten (reluctantly) used to sometimes encountering others in the woods, this is the first time she's seen anyone use a form of transportation other than their own feet. It fascinates her and she sits in her tree, transfixed by the passing boat.

Even as she carries her normal supplies with her - hunting bag, knives, and her reliable bow and arrows - hunting and gathering isn't really the main focus of the day. Exploration is. Determining whether the south-eastern parts of the forest has any unique bounty that could be worth more frequent trips.

But all that's quickly forgotten upon seeing the canoe pass by along the river. She scrambles down from her tree seconds later. Normally, she's reluctant to approach strangers in the forest. But this boat... it has potential. If she runs fast enough, maybe she can catch up.]

[At the library. Haruhi's fallen in hard with her own research. Anything she can think to do, which at the moment involves amassing books on any magic or alchemy or anything she can find to study. She's also got chalk, a notebook, and small ritual knife, and all sorts of other things like that. At the moment, however, she's focusing on her "new" teleporting spell in theb ack of the library. He actually can walk past as she's slicing open her thumb with said knife to draw the center signil if you want]

[Winry walks in right as Sokka starts on the back swing of his practice cast. The bobber and weight hits her in the forehead.]

Sokka!

Jack happens to be at the western lake, too. After embarking on such a long mission, he feels the need to check on the boat he and Buffy are building.

"Oi. Thunderaxe. Anything biting?"
