Sokka the 17th - [Voice/Action]

[markofthewise]

[So after going around breaking hearts and fighting evil demons, Sokka has found a new hobby to get his mind off of how annoying Luceti can be. That hobby? Cooking!

Surprisingly enough, despite the fact he's used the smithy as his personal kitchen for the past few days, Sokka has managed to complete a batch of eel jerky (or rather, a dish of mán xiāng consisting of salt cured eel) that actually doesn't taste absolutely horrible. It's nothing exceptional, but it is rather tasty. He's set out a plate of the stuff in the smithy, along with some vinegar bowl in a display that looks nowhere near as nice as this picture. At the very least it looks edible. Anyone who for whatever reason decides to drop by the smithy today are more than welcome to try some of Sokka's latest cooking experiment. Otherwise he's going to be inviting people over the journal.]

Hey Sanji, Brook! I finished the eel jerky I told you about. If you want to drop by you can have some. Anyone else who wants some can drop by too, but it probably won't last long if everyone does, though.

I was just clarifying it.

[latkje]

People will always be unequal. Some people will have things, and some people won't. And it's easier to swallow that if you can convince yourself that it's right.

[markofthewise]

And it that doesn't work, you convince yourself that it's right to take someone else's things.

[latkje]

Greed and guilt are almost universal. When one wins, it does its best to make the other disappear.

It sounds like your world need an Avatar. A place like your Harmonia wouldn't be able to get away with that for long in our world.

[latkje]

Other countries aren't much better or worse. They simply are.

[markofthewise]

Two Avatars, then.

[latkje]

We've never had anyone like that. Obviously, we spend most of our days fighting with impractical weapons, instead.

[markofthewise]

No wonder strategists are so highly valued. I'm sure it takes a long time to coordinate any battle.

[latkje]

No, it's just a lot of work listening to boring lectures. That's how you get a formal education.

[markofthewise]

No wonder Caesar likes to sleep so much.

[latkje]

He's just lazy.

[markofthewise]

Hopefully not too lazy for fishing.

[latkje]

You're taking him fishing?

[markofthewise]

I figured line fishing would be the one outdoor activity someone like him could handle.

[latkje]

Hah hah! But isn't the best fishing early in the morning?

[markofthewise]

Maybe he won't notice if me and Hugo kidnap him early enough in the morning.

[latkje]

So he doesn't know he's going fishing?

[markofthewise]

Exactly!

Besides, I was thinking of turning it into a week long fishing trip anyways. Just a bunch of guys, out with our tents, hunting and catching fish.

[latkje]

And you're bringing Caesar Silverberg.

[markofthewise]

I plan to leave out the camping part until we get there.

[latkje]

Let me know how that goes.

[markofthewise]

What? You're not coming?

[latkje]

I think I'm too old.

[markofthewise]

You're never too old for fishing. It's a universal rule.
