Sokka the 3rd | [Action]

[markofthewise]

[One wild party later, Sokka is back in the plaza again. He isn't looking for meat or even for some fine leather jackets (sorry Threepwood), but is instead perusing the clothing store. In fact, let's say its even the one with a name, All Passions. Today he is in the market for materials he'll be needing for a certain disguise he needs to put together. Something long, bristly, and vaguely beard-like. Not suspicious at all.]

[This doesn't go unnoticed!]

What kind of experiments?

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

Any kind of experiment. The Malnosso can affect your appearance, your personality... [S-sexual preference...]

[markofthewise]

I just want to know if I did anything that would have, you know, betrayed Suki in some way. If I hadn't even beaten the Fire Nation last time you saw me, then maybe Suki was still in that prison... and back then, there were times I thought she might have been gone for good.

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

Uh... I'm not really sure. Who's Suki, exactly?

[markofthewise]

Oh, right. She's my girlfriend.

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

Oh! Well, no. You didn't betray her. As far as I know, you were single the entire time you were here.

[Not a lie, man. Not a lie.]

[markofthewise]

Well that's a relief! I was kind of worried that with all these people recognizing me, I'd have some girlfriend I had never met popping up out of somewhere. Wouldn't that be weird?

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

[... Somehow, the fact that it was only a couple of days and they never officially dated doesn't make it any less awkward for Vyse.]

Heh. I... think I'd be pretty confused too. Flattered, but confused.

[markofthewise]

Admittedly it would be a boost to the ego. Well, anyways. [Sokka holds out a hand.] If the other, younger me thought you were alright, then so do I.

[Vyse grins, taking Sokka's hand to shake it.]

Good to know I haven't lost my charm just yet. Why are you shopping, anyway? Are you looking for something in particular?

[markofthewise]

I'm just putting together a particular disguise. For uh, stealth reasons. [He lowers his voice.] I need material for a beard.

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

[He can't help but give a small snort at that.]

A beard? That's a pretty radical way to hide your face.

[markofthewise]

But highly effective! You have no idea how often something like this will come in handy.

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

I've never really tried to disguise myself before, but it does sound useful if you want to avoid sticky situations.

[markofthewise]

And there are so many other practical applications as well.

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

... For a beard?

1/2

[markofthewise]

...

[markofthewise]

Yes.

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

I'll take your word for it.

[markofthewise]

So Vyse, besides the Avatar stuff, what do you know about me? Any embarrassing secrets?

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

Embarrassing?

[markofthewise]

I didn't tell you anything you should keep secret, right?

[winged-rogue.livejournal.com]

Not that I can remember, no.

[markofthewise]

Good, good. That'd be embarrassing if you did. [Sokka finally finds what he's looking for.] This should do it!

[Vyse is going to try and get a peek at what Sokka's holding.]
