Who: Anyone! Everyone!
Broadcast: If you want!
Action: On the FLOOT LOOP stations! Or the planet!
When: WHENEVER time is an illusion.

[you know the drill! this is a mingle for the stations floating around the bizarre forest planet, or the forest planet itself!

want to get away from the forest illusions? are you stopping for supplies? were you just really craving a bowl of Floot Loops for some reason? whether you are backdating for pre-planet shenanigans or just want to mess around, this is the post for you!]

The Clearing

[So Allen has been listening to god knows how long to Sokka's complaint about the tunnels. And the Forest. And essentially everything else in the world. Who the hell knows actually, Allen stopped listening an hour ago.]

[And now they are finally free of the forest and the tunnel, and he's not sure what's going on- but Sokka seems elated. Allen on the other hand, doesn't even notice the item appear for him.]


Good. Wonderful.

[And excuse him as he drops to sit in the grass, exhausted and done with everything. God his head was killing him]
alwayscomeback: (Come closer)

[Sokka is too happy about being reunited with his most favourite weapon ever. He's hugging and kissing it and laughing like a lunatic.]

I shoulda know you'd come back. You ALWAYS do!

[Oh hey, Allen is here.]

What've you got?
save_the_souls: (I'm a what now?)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-19 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[God he is actually kissing his boomerang. He is actually kidding a goddamn boomerang. He knows he'd get emotional if he saw Timcanpy again, but at least Timcanpy was alive. ...Sorta. he rubs his forehead, too weirded out to interfere with the reunion]

[But then Sokka pays attention to him, like he exists again, and is asking a question. Now that he thinks about it there was something that felt painfully spikey in his coat pocket. That feeling wasn't there before]

[So digging in and pulling out a silver cross thingy, small enough to fit on his hand- like a badge of something. Allen's eyes widen in surprise]


Eh? What's this-

[How did this get all the way out here in space?]

[Boomerang is totally alive, it is the best buddy a boy could ask for.

Sokka hasn't got a clue what that is, but hey, it's spiky.
]

Wow, is that a fancy dagger or something?
save_the_souls: (what?)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-19 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh? No-

[He shakes his head, he shifts his hand to hold it properly, with the etchings facing up in the palm of his hand]

It's an emblem. [Erm-] For a group I worked for back in my world.

[They, of course, mean nothing to Sokka. Not even the SHAPE means anything to him. Such is life.]

So it's like...a totem, or something?
save_the_souls: (look I have abs- and a gross tumor!)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-20 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
More...like a symbol, or a badge - to tell people who we are. I wore it whenever I went on field missions.
alwayscomeback: DNS (Like a rock star)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2015-01-20 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Oh!

[Sokka beams, nodding in understanding. ]

We have a special helmet we wear to battle. It's a wolf's head. People see the wolf head on a battlefield, and they know the Southern Water Tribe are out there.
save_the_souls: (smile and laugh)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-20 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles]

Yes! Like that!

Though...a wolf head does sound like a bit of a cooler symbol.

They are really cool.

[A pause.] Also kinda heavy.
save_the_souls: (polite laugh)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-20 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
I'm pretty sure most armour's heavy, Sokka. It's made to protect the wearer.
alwayscomeback: DNS (And the light moved away from me)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2015-01-21 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, yeah, that's a given. I bet I could make something lightweight and sturdy, though.
save_the_souls: (Tim pillow!)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-21 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[The smile on his face gets a little sad, nostalgic, his eyes fall back onto that cross]

Mm, maybe you could. Komui was always trying to come up with something like that. He'd even try to tailor each of our uniforms to best match our needs. Mine always had extra pockets, so I could carry snacks...

[Komui always tried to look out for them, to protect them as much as he protected his sister. He regretted that he never got one more time to speak with him, to thank him for everything he did...]

[He shook his head, not now. He looks back at Sokka]


Sorry. I wish I could remember how he did it. Maybe if one of the uniforms turns up here, you can study it.
alwayscomeback: (You can’t hide from your shadow)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2015-01-22 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? That's pretty awesome of him.

[Oh. Allen looks sad. He sucks at this comforting thing, it's Aang and Katara's domain. He and Toph just try to pretend feelings don't exist. He awkwardly pats Allen on the shoulder. There there.]

I'd appreciate that, man.
save_the_souls: (we could've been friends)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-22 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow Sokka that is such a warm and comforting gesture. Way to go. But it's alright, Allen really isn't looking to go into it, so he shakes away that look of sadness]

Mm, it's no problem!

So...you got a boomerang?
alwayscomeback: DNS (Well I won't back down)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2015-01-22 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
[It's super warm and comforting. He's probably sprained something.]

Yeah!

[He beams, holding it out to show him.] My dad gave it to me when I was a little kid. It's been my trusty weapon ever since.
save_the_souls: (smile and laugh)

[personal profile] save_the_souls 2015-01-22 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Awww. That's touching]

Really? That's sweet. I'm glad you got it back then!
alwayscomeback: DNS (Come and join the ride with me)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2015-01-23 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Me too. I thought I'd lost it forever.
