[Sokka has come off his augment glitch, and is now functioning at normal speed. Sadly for him, this means he has half a month of horrific embarrassment and regret to deal with. Wow, did he really hug a stranger's arm? He remembers hugging a stranger's arm.

He'll just be trying to salvage the mess he's made of the cargo bay, but he can't yet bring himself to destroy his hideous effigy to Suki. He does kind of like it. He just wishes...he hadn't been gross and weird about it on the network.]

[Network; Fleet Wide]

So. How about we forget about everything I did in the first half of the month? Are we okay with doing that? I'm okay with doing that. I promise I'm back to giving your usual dosage of sarcasm and pessimism.

...I'm sorry if I got anyone sent to jail.

Oh, I don't know. You provided a rather striking representation of your "girlfriend." [And yes, he did air quotes with his fingers on that.] It's going to be hard to forget. I mean, after all, you made her out to be such a looker. And it was such a seasonally perfect gesture too. Ah, young romance.

[Can you taste the smarminess in his words? Adachi REFUSES to let anyone off that easily. It would be a crime against his very nature.]

[alwayscomeback]

[Sokka is not high enough to miss the sarcasm now. ]

Yeah, we've got nothing to talk about if you're gonna be a jerk about it.

[cabbagedetective]

Aw c'mon. Earlier you seemed more than happy to talk about your love for arts and crafts, and your gal pal... what was her name? Su-shi? [He remembers Suki's name. He just REALLY wants to press Sokka's buttons.]

[alwayscomeback]

That's because I wasn't myself. My augment was acting crazy.

[Icily, because the one button you do not press with Sokka is the one concerning his loved ones. ]

Suki.

[cabbagedetective]

Suki! That was it. I knew it was Su-something. Well, I'm sure that, if she were here to see it, she'd tell you just how much your little gesture means to her.

[Ah ha, sweet spot located. Okay, time to apply just a liiiiittle more pressure. Normally, Adachi would be more careful about trying to stay on fleet members' good sides, but it'd been a while since he had a kid like this to keep him so entertained.]

Hey! Here's an idea! Maybe you should save it. You could take it back to her as a sort of souvenir? You know, let her know you were thinking about her, and how much you care about her. Girls love that sort of thing.

[Adachi WAS trying to sound sincere... sorta... kinda...]

[alwayscomeback]

[Sokka is so so so suspicious. ]

...Yeah I'm pretty sure I can't cart that thing into a war zone.

[save_the_souls]

[He hears some sounds like metal being moved around coming from the cargo bay. Curious, he decides to go check it out]

Sokka?

[alwayscomeback]

[Sokka gives a sheepish wave.]

Hey, Allen. I'm uh...back to normal.

[save_the_souls]

You are?

[Luckily Allen needs only a moment to process, before he smiles at Sokka and responds the usual way people did with losses]

Oh- welcome back then!

[alwayscomeback]

[Sokka still looks like he wants to crawl into a hole and die.]

I hope I didn't make too much of a mess.

[save_the_souls]

Don't worry, you weren't that bad. I've seen much worse!

[Like, buildings leveled bad!!]

I mean, your statue was just made out of spare parts, right?

[alwayscomeback]

Really?

[He looks at the...hideous thing. ]

Yeah, it's nothing I'd miss anyway. Nothing vital, anyway.

[stopbleeding]

Is it garbage day already? [Because really. What else could that mess be? Stepping to Sokka's side, he studies the heinous creation and promptly wonders why he's even doing that. With his hands on his hips, he looks down.] What? Is it too heavy for you or something? Move it.

[Cue the expectant staring.]

[alwayscomeback]

[Oh hey, it's a new person. Sokka frowns a little, tilting his head at it. ]

I think I'd feel bad if I got rid of her. Maybe I can...prop her up in a corner somewhere.

Welcome to the ship, by the way.

[stopbleeding]

[He nods.] Yeah, thanks.

[Waitaminute.]-"Her"?! Don't tell me that's-? Is that supposed to be human?! It's disgusting! [Lumbering towards it threateningly now, watch out Sokka.] We're getting rid of it. It'll be a mercy kill.

[alwayscomeback]

[YOU CAN'T THOUGH!!! Sokka dives in front of the Suki.]

No it's not! It's a tribute to my girlfriend, and it's staying so I can show her if she ever arrives here.

[stopbleeding]

[This is worse than he thought. He sighs in aggravation.]

Look, I'm doing you a favor. If any woman saw that she'd ditch you in an instant. It's hideous.

[save_the_souls]

[Allen is in fact VERY GLAD to be rid of their former crewmate Alex. Sure, maybe part of him hopes the guy is now happy with his boyfriend- but most of all he's just glad he's not in the same ship as him]

[In fact he's so happy for that AND the fact that Sokka's sane again, he'll actually do something he normally avoids doing: agree to splurge with money. And so he's coming onto the ship, carrying a large pile of pizza boxes, appetizers and a bag full of different kinds of drinks. Because you know, food is what this ship cares about]

[Except you know, maybe he got too much stuff he's having trouble seeing over it and is trying to carry it all. And since food is MOST PRECIOUS, he'll call for help]

Ah- could someone please come help before I drop the pizza?!

[stopbleeding]

Whoa, whoa. Careful. [One by one, Allen's load lightens. First the drinks, then the appetizers, then, finally the entire stack of pizzas. Held one handed. As if it's nothing.

What a fucking show-off.

Zoro spares a finger to peek into one of the boxes.]

This all for you? [The guy's scrawny as a beanpole but he won't let that deceive him. He knows shonen protags well.]

1/2

[save_the_souls]

[What a fucking show off. But Allen appreciates the help- even if it doesn't occur to him it's weird at the second that this guy just picked up all the pizzas with one hand]

Ah- thank you! They're actually for everyone in the crew-

[save_the_souls]

[-Waitasecond]

- Um.

Who are you?

[WHY ARE YOU ON MY SHIP???]

[stopbleeding]

Zoro. [He states it simply, as if his name would mean anything. Whatever. He doesn't care. There's a pizza in his hand and he's determined to get the first slice. Those creeping fingers finagle a piece out and somehow, someway, he maneuvers it into his mouth.

He speaks while chewing.] Who're you?

[aside from a nerd.]

[save_the_souls]

[- There's a pause as he stares at this guy. Is this the new crewmate? did he really start eating pizza while holding onto all those boxes at the same time? That takes...such skill. Is he the Chosen One?]

- Ah, I'm Allen. I'm the medic on the ship.

[stopbleeding]

You're the doctor? [He considers this as he chews, giving Allen a good look-over. Hm. No. Chopper's still better.] You don't really look like one. Do you even have a license?

[Doctors are supposed to have those, right?]
