Meanwhile on the less violent fish ship....

[save_the_souls]

Who: The Blue Fish Crew & Any Visitors
Broadcast: MAYBE
Action: SS Blue Fish
When: Beginning of July

[So in the past month, Aang & Katara may or may not have become an item, Sokka finished off all of puberty in under a week, Allen remained stuck in the puberty still, Toph won strangest pilot award briefly before she had to give it up to a pony, Hawke sassed everything and finally itemized with Anders, Beverly acquired a Starfleet issued puppy, and it turned out the cook is a flipping disney princess. Quite a time for the Blue Fish crew!]

[Well, it's time to check in with them again: AKA IT'S A MINGLE EVERYONE]

Comments

[For once, it wasn't Sokka. Rules are important, so he took in every single one of the half-assed (and probably partly wrong) rules that Allen gave on the game. He feels he's gained the right, in his very vague second-hand knowledge of this game, to tsk in a condescending manner. ]

Some people, right?

[save_the_souls]

[...]

Sokka.

[YOU LEARNED FIVE MINUTES AGO NOT TO KICK DON'T BE AN ARSE]

[bolder]

What else am I supposed to do?! This is stupid, why can't we play something I can at least see?

[She kicks the ball harder! >/]

And shut up, Sokka!

[save_the_souls]

We tried! But you turned Blind Man's Buff into The Most Dangerous Game!

[IT WAS THE MOST TRAUMATIC GAME OF TAG HE'S EVER PLAYED]

Is it that hard to see it while it's being dribbled?

[alwayscomeback]

It's not my fault you can't play the game properly, Toph. You can play it just fine, you just won't.

...We don't speak of that game, Allen. We agreed on that.

[bolder]

Fine, but if anything hits me in the head, I'm hitting you twice as hard!

[She sticks her tongue out at Allen.] I may be blind, but I can tell when you bluff. You're the ones who thought hiding on top of wooden crates was cute.

[Pointing to the pile of splintered wood now.] How adorable is it now? I can't see.

[save_the_souls]

[He looks over at the splintered crates, and that just makes him seem lose color in his face as he flashes back to that game from hell. He mumbles sickly]

It was as bad as running from loan sharks...

[alwayscomeback]

[That was the worst game, and Sokka has played some pretty terrible games, all in all. ]

It was less cute and more inherently important for our survival.

[bolder]

Well, Sokka! You're the one who tagged me! You brought it on yourself.

[She has the ball now, and tosses it to... his general direction.] Just go. Or however this works.

[save_the_souls]

[ He can't help it. Seeing Toph the Destroyer while he's still in flashback mode throw something out of the corner of his eye makes him yelp a little and jump back a little. ]

[But when no imminent death follows the ball toss, he shakes himself out of it with a weak laugh. Right. No tag today. They're all safe.]

R-Right! Let's go play. [Ha ha...]

[alwayscomeback]

I was just playing the game how the rules state!!!

[He'll grab the ball, mostly by reflex, but jumps at the sound of Allen's Flashback Terror.]

...You okay there? Not gonna pass out or anything, right?

[bolder]

He'll be fine eventually. [She has the same grin on her face as before. Be careful, Allen.]

Just play.
