markofthewise | Sokka the 14th

[Early Valentine's morning before the sun is even up, Sokka will be sneaking about through town leaving some presents on the doorsteps of a select group of people. Under the mistaken belief he has to get all the girls he knows something for this very, very tedious holiday, Sokka has gone out on deliveries. He'll be knocking on the doors of the houses and apartments belonging to Nami, Winry, Anise, Mayoi, Paru, and Charlotte.

He'll be long gone before they (or their housemate?) answers, but what they'll find is a basket full of assorted chocolates and other candy. A card accompanies it with an extremely crude drawing of the person in question (interpret it as you will) with the message "Valentines !" on top and "Sokka" written on the back. Toph and Katara will both find the same thing left in their rooms as well. Zuko will receive nothing.]

((ooc: Feel free to get a hold of Sokka however you please. You can call him out on voice, written, or go knocking down the door of his house to demand an explanation.))

[Mayoi sorta overslept today, so when Sokka knocked on her door she really didn't hear him. When she does wake up and decides to go outside, she finds the basket on her doorstep]

...

[which prompts her to open up her journal]

Sokka, are you there?

[A lazy yawn.] Mayoi?

That basket on my doorstep was from you, right?

Ah yes. Did you like it?

[...she was sure they went over this 'putting notes of affection in the shoe box' explanation before, but she puts it aside. It is Valentines Day after all]

Yeah...thanks for the treats. The picture looked nice too.

[She's the first one who has said that. Awww.]

... by the way, don't get the wrong idea about the whole Valentine's thing. Apparently it's some kind of romantic holiday or something.

Well of course! In school they taught me Valentines Day happened because a priest was marrying people, when it was against the law. Marriage sounds pretty romantic to me.

But, it's still nice of you to do this.

Well I didn't know that until after someone was... rather upset with me about the whole thing. Anyways, enjoy the chocolate.

..Who could be mad about free candy?

Well, I don't want to go into specifics... but she probably thought I really liked her, if you now what I mean.

It's understandable - you leave candy and a special note to anybody and they'll think something is up. Especially if you don't do it in person.

In my defense, there is no Valentine's where I come from.

...Really?!

[she's pretty surprised. A world without free treats]

It's true! There's all kinds of new and weird holidays here.

Wow...so you don't have anything like Christmas or Halloween?

Nope, the Christmas here was my first one. I guess it wasn't too bad.
