Sokka the 10th - [Action]

[markofthewise]

[With the day nearing its end, Sokka is finally ready to go public with the occupation he's been working on all week. So now he steps into the village square. Two metal tanks are strapped to his back, both filled with 'fuel'. Connected to each one of them is multiple-jointed metal piping used to house and protect a hose, both which connect to two specially designed nozzles on his hand. How are they activated? A lever for each hand, that when he pulls it, releases the liquid from the tanks in a stream as well as lighting a spark to ignite it.

So what is he doing? Why, he's showing off his fancy Firebending moves with varieties of "HYAH!" and "HWUH!" and so forth while he uses his dual flamethrowers to show off how awesome he is. This is potentially the most dangerous and stupid thing he's ever done. Hopefully he won't blow himself up, even though he's clearly put a lot of work into his newest invention.

Thanks to Nash, the area he is showing off in is now roped off for your protection.]

Really? I'm a year older than you.

[...]

Oh.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Problem?

[markofthewise]

Nope! No problem at all!

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Alright. So you're telling me I have to dismantle a gun if I want a flint spark?

[markofthewise]

Nope. Because that would be stealing!

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

But Sokka! It's "free"!

[markofthewise]

Yeah. For the person who runs the shop.

But anyways, I really don't know where else you'd be able to find the stuff. Maybe I could ask Toph if she recognizes the material from stuff she would've felt in the mountains.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Could you? That would be great.

[markofthewise]

But I get half of whatever's found! I need to make flamethrowers for my feet and mouth too.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Right.

[markofthewise]

[It really is a good thing that this experiment ends tonight, or Sokka would so be dead.] What do you plan to use them for?

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Your flame thrower idea got me thinking that maybe I could put one in an automail arm!

[markofthewise]

A flamethrower arm, huh? I like it! [If she hits him up after the event, he'll probably just give her one of the two he's set up.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Right now I'm in the works of creating a rocket launcher hand, but I'd need more of Alfons' notes to complete that.

[markofthewise]

You think you can make it with the parts here?

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

It could take a while, but with patience and determination I think I can pull it off. I've been gathering scraps of metal, wire, and anything else I could find since I got here.

[markofthewise]

Well, since I run the smithy, I can help you with the metal part. After all, I designed these babies on my back all on my own.

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

That'd be great, Sokka.

[markofthewise]

Yeah, I'm pretty great. [Watch as he totally torches some more snow. Awesome.]

[crytearsofjoy.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll see you around.

[markofthewise]

Sure, seeya later! [He turns to wave at her and almost sends a burst of flames at her, but cuts it off just in time. Whoops.]
