Sokka the 78th - [Action/Written]
[After ditching Ed in the tunnels, Sokka has had some thinking to do. He's lost Suki and now he's lost Edward. His relationship with other people has seemed strained too. When it comes down to it, he doesn't particularly feel bad about this, but he is worried about ending up alone. Being alone is bad. But then, so is the life he had before. Well, if the journals are good for one thing, it's for sorting out dilemmas without giving yourself away. So he heads to the journal, disguises his handwriting, and asks:]
[Written (Disguised)]
If you were changed in a way that made you happier, but pushed other people away, would it be worth staying that way? I mean, it's not worth it to make yourself miserable just for the sake of other people, right? That'd be ridiculous.
[Yeah. Totally ridiculous. That was stupid of him to even ask. He stares at the page, shakes his head, and pushes it away. Later he'll reply to it, but for now, he decides to do work instead of wallowing in pointless contemplation.
For people who might want Sokka in person, he's up to his usual routine.]

Sure. Like that.

Well in that case it's your hair so you should wear it how you want!

[If writing could have sarcasm, this would reek of it.]

Did you get one of those things where your hair sticks straight up or did you dye it pink?

You could get flowers maybe! Or a smiley face, which will make people happy.

farewell mysterious journal person, the laws of stranger danger compel Ikki to go elsewhere. ]

Ikki will run into Sokka's room looking a tiny little bit worried, after having checked Katara's room - Aang of course shared with Ikki, so she already knew he wasn't there. While the conversation about hair or lack thereof had rung no warning bells, the last message pretty solidly did, although the mysterious anonymous person might have been being sarcastic; there was simply no way to tell.
Her first instinct whenever worried had always been to run immediately to a family member, and that had furthermore been impressed on her as an important thing to do, and so this time has really been no different. ]
Uncle Sokka! Uncle Sokka, someone wrote me something weird!
[ HERE LOOK, she has her journal open to the page for proof and will shove it up near his face.
She's pretty confident he will somehow make this better, since that has always been the case for Katara, Aang, and Sokka. ]
action
Let me see, Ikki. [He holds his hand out for the journal, not caring to sit back up to look.]
action
See? They asked a bunch of weird questions. I didn't say anything back though!
[ Which is proper protocol. Right? ]
action
Yup, looks like a Grade A creep to me. You did the right thing, Ikki.
action
[ Or are there bad people who don't immediately get pointed out to her, because that idea is slightly more worrying. ]
Do we have to do anything about it? I dunno who that was.
action
[Now he realizes it'd been easier to indulge her. Oh well.]
Some people are just jerks. You should leave the journals alone for a little bit. I'll set up a filter with whoever this is and tell 'em to back off.
action
[ But she brightens up at the bit about a filter. If Uncle Sokka says he's taking care of it, it'll be fine, right? ]
Okay! I'll just play with Soren or something. Or do homework. [ ...The second thing should probably come first, but. ] Thanks, Uncle Sokka!
[ Although actually. ] Hey, how do people write without pictures, anyway? [ It's never occurred to her to try, or to ask. ]

[ She looks a little bit disturbed by this idea. ...CREEPY... ]
