i know you, that look in your eyes is so familiar a gleam

[ Calibration Rooms ]
( for N-Z characters )


Before you post your toplevel comment, please:
1. Check the first letter of your character's name as its written in our tags. N-Z names comment here, and A-M names go to the other post.
2. Make a note in your comment if anything especially triggering or graphic might show up in the Calibration. If you're not sure if something's worth noting or not, we suggest listing it anyway, just to err on the side of caution.
3. Put your character's name (it can be shortened or different from the tag, this time) in the subject of your comment. This will help visitors find you easily, and help us update the list below.
4. Post your comment! It's fine if everyone's Calibrations end up looking and reading very different from one another. As long as you're having fun and following our guidelines, you're good to go. :)
5. If you have any questions or concerns during Calibrations, you are welcome to send them towards the mod team at any time, as always.

    Oh...no, not really. It's just part of the Southern Water Tribe. We don't really name our villages, there's not a lot of them left, so we know where they all are.
    bi_otic: (judgemental)

    [It's a simple matter of fact statement, but he's not sure he likes what he thinks he sees between the lines]

    Is that...because of the war?
    alwayscomeback: (It’s a demon is disguise)

    [personal profile] alwayscomeback 2017-06-19 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Sokka's face drops instantly. ]

    ...Yeah. The- the Fire Nation ran raids on our villages. Took our Waterbenders, slaughtered our people. It hit us hard.
    bi_otic: (conversational)

    [personal profile] bi_otic 2017-06-21 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Kaidan frowns sympathetically]

    It'd hit anyone hard...[He glances back to the village] That's what happened to your perimeter wall?
    alwayscomeback: (So walk away from your pride)

    [personal profile] alwayscomeback 2017-06-21 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Sokka nods, his brows furrowing, remembering something...awful. ]

    It was the last raid they did, it was...really bad.
    bi_otic: (sorry what?)

    [personal profile] bi_otic 2017-06-25 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
    [It's not an easy subject but it's part of Sokka's life, and one that he wants to understand.]

    But you fought back. [Which isn't really a question because even if he hadn't seen proof of that, Sokka had told him as much.]

    ...who was Aang?
    alwayscomeback: (Looking for special things)

    [personal profile] alwayscomeback 2017-06-25 06:44 pm (UTC)(link)
    Yeah, we did. After that, the men of my village left, to fight in the war properly. It was the last straw.

    [This, at least, is a subject he can smile about. ]

    The Avatar. Remember me telling you people can bend elements back home? The Avatar is the one being who can bend all four. They're reborn into a new body every time they die. Aang is the current one. It's the Avatar's job to bring peace and harmony to the world. Balance.
    bi_otic: (sorry what?)

    [personal profile] bi_otic 2017-07-11 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
    Then I guess it makes sense that he was on your side.

    [He frowns, thoughtfully] And was just...born out of the ice like that? Not from anyone's...uh...from anyone in the village?
    alwayscomeback: (You’re a mountain I’m a stepping stone)

    [personal profile] alwayscomeback 2017-07-12 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
    Thankfully.

    [Sokka has to laugh at that. ]

    Oh, wow, uh no. No, he wasn't born in the ice. He was a member of the Air Nomads- when the war was still new, he ran away from home, he didn't- couldn't handle the weight of being the Avatar. He ended up freezing himself in that iceberg because...Avatar powers, I guess, and stayed that way for a hundred years, when me and my sister found him .
    bi_otic: (sorry what?)

    [personal profile] bi_otic 2017-07-18 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
    Oh...[Well that...makes sense? Kind of? Getting past the part of a child freezing himself in the ice for a hundred years. But then, that was cryo-sleep was meant to do. Why not accomplish it with something more akin to magic?]

    Do you know...why he decided to come out when you found him?
    alwayscomeback: DNS (I can't stand to fly)

    [personal profile] alwayscomeback 2017-07-18 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
    Because he's got a good heart. I mean, I guess we woke him up by accident, but he couldn't bear to see what the world turned into, because he'd not been around. He wanted to make it better again.
    bi_otic: (neutral)

    [personal profile] bi_otic 2017-07-21 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
    Or maybe he recognized the same quality in you. [He gives Sokka a gentle smile]
    alwayscomeback: (You will leave these things behind)

    [personal profile] alwayscomeback 2017-07-23 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Sokka laughs. ]

    Oh, man, no. I was awful to him when I met him. I thought he was a threat and treated him like garbage. Katara was the one who made the effort at first. It took a while for me to come around.
    bi_otic: (smiling)

    [personal profile] bi_otic 2017-07-25 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Kaidan laughs as well]

    Alright...well...some friendships start a little more rocky than others, I guess. But you meant well. You were worried about your people.
    alwayscomeback: (I never said another word)

    [personal profile] alwayscomeback 2017-07-25 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
    Boy do they. One of my closest friends spent months trying to catch us. That was even more rocky.

    ...But yeah. Dad tasked me with looking after the tribe, I took it pretty seriously.

    [It seems like forever ago now. He was sixteen then, how times have changed. ]
