Then I will keep an eye out for her. Have you fought her before?

[Not that it sounds like she'll be hard to spot.]

It wouldn't be an imperative, like this Looma you speak of. But I'm sure Sif would have done so more than once. She valued her position as a warrior greatly.

Nope, this will be the first time.

[Likely the first time of MANY. ]

Yeah, I er- the girlfriend I had back home, kind of still have, I guess, Suki. She's part of this group of warrior women, she's really proud of it.

[He misses her. There's still a twang of guilt for moving on, but who knows how long he'll be stuck here, miserable and alone. ]
rebuildyourruins: (Can't imagine why.)

[Thor raises an eyebrow at that, but doesn't comment. He's not one to comment on long-distance relationships, considering how much of his time with Jane was spent away. Not to mention he knows Sokka's been here for three years and counting.]

We had something similar on Asgard, long ago. The Valkyrie. They were great warriors, all of them women, and sworn to protect the throne. I count myself lucky to be friends with one of them today.

[The last one.]

How do you intend to approach this fight then?
alwayscomeback: DNS (Okay but lemmie point out a thing)

[Suki is a complicated mess of emotions and he's dealing with her by largely not dealing with her. ]

Oh wow, they sound awesome. I can really get behind warrior ladies. Other worlds would be way better for having them.

[Good question.]

I won't be able to beat her with brute force, she's bigger and stronger than me. I'm gonna have to rely on my wits and agility. Do my usual thinking outside the box thing- that's kept me alive in other fights before now.

I know ours was.

[He still believes that, even after all the dreadful revelations that have happened since. It's hard to think badly of your childhood heroes.]

It isn't enough to merely survive, though. You have to win.
alwayscomeback: DNS (I dunno that sounds fake)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2018-02-15 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
That's the tricky part, the winning. And then it gets even trickier when you have to try and maintain the winning. It can sometimes go backwards again without you even realising.
rebuildyourruins: (Smooth.)

[personal profile] rebuildyourruins 2018-02-17 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
Well, if you want to test yourself against someone stronger, I would be happy to go for a bout.

[Because Thor is most definitely stronger than Sokka is, even if he's not Looma's size.]
alwayscomeback: DNS (HEY LOOK MEAT)

[personal profile] alwayscomeback 2018-02-18 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks, I'll take you up on that. The more training I get in measuring up against people who are stronger than me the better.
rebuildyourruins: (If you can dodge a wrench--)

[personal profile] rebuildyourruins 2018-02-19 09:12 am (UTC)(link)
Then I'll be certain to make it a challenge.

[Are you sure you're prepared for this Sokka.]

[NOPE. He' pretty sure he's gonna die at some point by SOMEONE but this is what he does for love. ]

I wouldn't expect anything less from you.
