Who: Sokka and you!
Broadcast: Private to the SS Blue Fish
Action: Snow planet - open to all
When: Today

[NETWORK - VIDEO; SS BLUE FISH ONLY]

[Sokka has already found himself the correct winter wear for this planet. It's nothing like his traditional Southern Water Tribe getup, but they'll do the job. He smiles at the camera, waving the spear he's managed to make for himself.]

Hey guys! I know not everyone's big on the eternal winter planet, but I grew up in the South Pole, so this is the sort of place I'm used to. Anyway, I figured I'd head out and get us some food. Fish, try and get a couple elk and stuff. I've been working on an ice box in the cargo hold, so we should be able to keep it fresh for a while, too. Anyone's welcome to join me, but if you don't feel like it, don't worry, I'll make sure there's plenty of food to go round for all of us.

[He's not even trying to be a decent captain, really. After providing for his tribe for so much of his life, and team Avatar after that, this sort of thing is natural to him. He grins, giving the camera a gloved thumbs up.]

We'll be feasting tonight, guys! WOOOO!

[ACTION;]

[Sokka can be found by anyone who's braving the wintery planet. Perhaps you'll catch him in the habited areas, haggling with a couple natives on some hunting gear. Or perhaps you'll find him stalking through the tundras, hunting the animals who are, indeed adorable, but are also made of delicious meat.

One of the few times you'll find him sitting quietly are when he's sat himself on a frozen patch of water, ice fishing. But be quiet or you'll scare the food.]

Comments

[ladiesss]

Uh huh. Out of the two of us, who is acclimated to the South Pole?

[she creeps closer to the edge of the frozen lake... to try and see if there's anything down the hole he's cut for his fishing line...]

And yes. I made a snowman. His name is Rasputin.

[alwayscomeback]

Okay, okay, you got a point.

[There doesn't seem to be anything, bar from a flicker of silver, now and again.]

Wow, you even named it.

[ladiesss]

I did. Seemed like the thing to do.

[...]

This is boring. Maybe I can ask the fish to hurry up and bite the hook.

[alwayscomeback]

[He arches a brow.]

You can do that? Is this like the tree-talking-thing?

[ladiesss]

Uh huh. I can technically talk to anything. Mostly anything. It's just that most stuff is really bad at conversation.

[alwayscomeback]

Okay. [He gestures to the hole in the ice.] Knock yourself out, tell the fish they got a better destiny in my kitchen.

[ladiesss]

...Hey, fish. [she turns and leans waaay over so that the fish can actually hear her down there. if someone were to push her, she would absolutely fall face-first into the ice.] This guy says you've got a better destiny in his kitchen.

[and while the fish don't say anything back, one of them does kind of hover closer to the surface of the ice for a moment. after several seconds of silence, she looks over at Sokka.]

Fish sound creepy.

[alwayscomeback]

I'm not surprised. The only good fish are the Moon and Ocean spirits.

[He peers into the hole.]

So, do they agree to their kitchen-based destiny?

[ladiesss]

...I don't know who those are, but I'm inclined to agree with you.

[instead of answering the other question, she starts... talking to the fish again.]

So, yeah. That guy's crazy. I totally agree. That sounds terrible. [...] Uh huh. [.......] Uh huh. Well, here. I'll make it up to you. That thing in the water? From me to you. It's totally delicious. [...] Oh yeah. Doesn't smell like them, right?

[...a moment later... something tugs hard on the end of Sokka's line. C:]

[alwayscomeback]

They're the spirits of the Moon and the Ocean. They live as fish in this spirit oasis in the North Pole. The Moon one is the prettiest, most lovely of them all, that's the most important thing to take away from this.

[Wait, no, what is happening now?] HEY! DON'T INSULT ME TO THE FI-

Oh. [Just going to casually start reeling that in.] Non-spirit fish are dumb.
