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!]

[Oh, Krista. He nudges a little closer, bumping his shoulder affectionately on hers. It's not a hug, but it's an attempt at comfort.]

I know what you mean. You don't feel right, being away from the people you are about. I get it. But I absolutely promise that you're not alone here.

Yeah...?

[she seems to take the shoulder pretty well. she settles back down on top of her knees, a little bit.]

Everyone seems like they're doing really good, though... And I don't feel like I've got it together at all...

[A little laugh bubbles out, but it's not a happy one.]

I can't speak for anyone else, but I haven't got it together at all, either. I'm just trying to focus on getting us out of here, so I don't have to think too much about what was happening back home.

[He gives her a self-deprecating smile.] So you're not the only one. We can be pathetic and messed up together.

[WOW she makes this really pathetic noise, halfways between a sob and a giggle? she's smiling but she's also got brand new tears streaming down her face. she wipes them away from her eyes while whining:]

That's really nice... Ugh, Sokka...

[That sure is a lot of whining.]

That's me. Mr. Nice In The Face Of Horrible Reality. I think I need to shorten it. Mr. Nitfohr? It's a work in progress.

But seriously, if you ever wanna talk, let me know. It might help.

[THAT makes her laugh again. it's stupid, but pretty much exactly what she needs right now. at least she seems like she's calming down, finally.]

Okay, okay... I'll let you know. And you can... come talk to me too, sometimes, okay? I promise I'm a better listener than I am a talker...

[He's glad. The magic of Sokka works again.]

I will, I promise. We can eat stupid amounts of food and reminisce about everything we're missing back home.

Oh my god I love stupid amounts of food...

[she just. drapes over onto the ground.]

That's the only amount of food worth having in my humble opinion.
