Sokka the 1st | [Voice/Action]

[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!?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

You could say it was a ... forge-one conclusion! [Sokka cracks up laughing at this.]

Just the one. You don't?

Well, I don't really do much with swords, at all these days, remember?

[He looks at the swords to find one of an appropriate length and balance. ]

Oh, right. Of course. Maybe you should practice some first? I think I should do some more shopping and find out more about this place. And uh, maybe see if any of my friends are around. [And do some more shopping.]

[He finds a sword that he likes, and picks it up. At least he seems to know how to hold it.] I think I'll be fine. But you can take all the time you want. It isn't like I have anything better to do, right? Before, I was a book.

You can be a book again when I let you know when I'm ready. [Sokka starts putting all the weapons he plans to take with him into a pile.]

I can help if you'd like. Do you even know how to use all those things?

Not all of them...

I suppose it never hurt to be prepared.

Exactly! [Sokka grabs as many of the weapons as he can, but there are still several left on the ground.] I guess I can always come back...

They are weapons, so it might be best to handle them carefully.

Hey, don't worry about it! I got it!

[Of course, the first thing Sokka does is get caught in the doorway of the store. He manages to get out by walking sideways, but trips on the way out and weapons are sent flying into the snow all around him.]

It would be rude to comment, wouldn't it? [He's smiling as he says this, but Nash smiling is always sort of smug. He does try to help pick up all the weapons, staring at the whip, for a bit as he does so.]

Well I didn't hurt myself. All my fingers in tact! [Sokka gathers up the remaining weapons as well, but he notices Nash staring at the whip.] I think they had other whips in there if you want one.

I don't. It's just an interesting choice. [Avoiding a dirty joke. Avoiding a dirty joke.] I have everything I need already. I'm fairly self-sufficient, even if the missus doesn't think I'll ever amount to anything.

[Sokka gives a suspicious look at him.] Well it's only one of many weapons. Anyways, I guess you don't get along too well with the old lady, huh?

The old lady, I like how you said that. She keeps me on my toes.

... she's not here, right?

Am I supposed to stop acting married because we happen to be separated for a while?

I just don't want an angry married woman coming after me for something I said.

What, you don't trust me to protect you?

Who's going to protect you?

Like I said. Self-sufficient.

I have a feeling I'm not going to like her very much.

I doubt she'll turn up. And if she does, you have my word, I won't inform her of your existence.

Good.... I think.
