Sokka the 1st | [Voice/Action]

[markofthewise]

[Sokka is still sleeping comfortably, thanks in a large part to having arrived inside of a nice warm house. That is, he's sleeping on the floor of House 2 and somehow both snoring and drooling on his open journal. His usual clothes, which were nicely folded around him, have been unconsciously snatched at and thrown on top of him as a makeshift blanket. Naturally all that snoring is being transmitted by voice, as is a few other words...]

Hmmm... stop Momo... that's... vegetables!?

[voice]

[markofthewise]

.... perhaps.

[voice]

[latkje]

So see, I'm a book, and not clothes. We inanimate objects really don't like being mistaken for one another.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

I never knew it made that much of a difference. [Sokka digs through the pile of clothes and finds a rather damp journal under it.] I see.

[voice]

[latkje]

To be honest, I'm not a book either. I'm Nash.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

[Not a book? But...] Do you have a book too?

[voice]

[latkje]

It's a linked communication system, I'm afraid. A whole network.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

While admittedly useful, I think I would prefer my stuff back. And my home. And... everyone else?

[voice]

[latkje]

Yeah, so would I.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

... well! I guess I should get dressed and start heading home. It's been fun, uh, Nash. Maybe I'll talk to you on this book again!

[voice]

[latkje]

You might want to check the instructions, first.

[And however it is people get linked ICly to The Guide.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Instruction? Oh, there's a map! Great!

[After flipping through the pages.] This is all just writing! And there's not even an index.

[voice]

[latkje]

The words are worth reading. You can read, can't you?

If you want to go exploring, I won't stop you. Might even be a good idea, though I haven't gotten around to it myself.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Of course I can read, but this is all about talking about stuff like presents and candy. While I am a big fan of both of these, I don't think they will help me very much.

I'm not exploring, just going home. [Sokka takes a moment to look outside.] It's snowing... but this doesn't look like the South Pole or the North Pole. Probably Southern Earth Kingdom.

[voice]

[latkje]

It's another world entirely.

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Pretty sure this isn't the Spirit World. Of course, no bending powers, so I really can't confirm that.

[voice]

[latkje]

Did books usually talk where you came from?

[voice]

[markofthewise]

No, but maybe I had never met the right one. Maybe there were some in the Library. [Maybe if he takes the book to the owl, he'll be allowed back into the library again.]

Re: [voice]

[latkje]

[No! The owl is creepy.]

Maybe. But I'm sure, if you were to look around, you'd notice some other things aren't right. An observant person like yourself?

1/2 [voice]

[markofthewise]

[But.... KNOWLEDGE!]

Well there is this room that... [there's a flushing sound]

2/2 [voice]

[markofthewise]

A waste disposal pot! I designed this once!

[voice]

[latkje]

Well, I guess there's nothing I can do to convince you, is there?

What's your name, anyway?

[voice]

[markofthewise]

But look! The water goes down... and its filled up. Of course mine was designed to look like Appa. Eh, oh well.

Sokka of the Water Tribe.

[voice]

[latkje]

The Water Tribe? And you mentioned the Earth Kingdom, before. Is there a wind country?

[voice]

[markofthewise]

Not anymore.

[voice]

[latkje]

Oh. That's a shame.
