Who: Sokka and you?
Broadcast: Fleet-wide
Action: Marsiva
When: Mid afternoon, 28th!

[Sokka has been through quite a few perturbing experiences in his short life. These experience doubled exponentially after meeting Aang, which he suspected was just part and parcel of being Team Avatar. Past Avatar friends probably had to deal with giant sea serpents, people who could blow you up with their mind, and worst of all hippies. Waking up in space is definitely up there in his 'perturbing experiences' list. It's a solid second, right between the hippies and the creepy ghost swamp.

The last thing he remembers is falling off the airship with Toph. He'd managed to keep hold of her, keep her from falling to a grizzly death, and lost his boomerang and sword in the process. Then the army aboard the ship had surrounded them and then....what? He frowns, glancing down at the broken leg that's no longer broken, and then around him at these exceptionally strange surroundings. Almost nothing here rings even a touch of familiarity to him, as he carefully walks around, wishing he'd had the presence of mind to take more than two weapons on board a war ship with him.

There's only one explanation he can come to, only one that makes absolute sense. His communicator buzzes, alive and unnoticed in a corner, recording him as he looks skyward, raising his hands up.]

Okay, I get that I'm probably dead and you guys have got a lot of crazy spirit world shenanigans to get up to, but I'm kind of in the middle of saving the world so if we could reschedule that'd be great.

[He pauses, waiting for a reply. He has to admit, this isn't like the hazy memories of the last time he was dragged into the spirit world, and panic is starting to creep into his tone.]

This isn't about what happened with the owl is it? Because he started it. You ask anyone and they'll back me up! Hello?

[At even more silence, he throws himself into full on panic mode.]

PLEASE DON'T KEEP ME HERE, I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT BATHROOMS AGAIN!!!!!!!!

[Kaneis is normally all for ignoring these new arrival posts. He was fully intending on ignoring this one too, until he started yelling]

Jeez, shut up! There's a bathroom around there somewhere!

[He...thinks]

[alwayscomeback]

[Voices coming from seemingly nowhere only solidify his Spirit World theory.]

No, no you don't! I checked last time and there are zero bathrooms!

[wilder]

[Yes that right. it's all voices from beyond!]

I haven't heard anyone else complain about a lack of a bathroom- so maybe you're just not looking right!

[alwayscomeback]

I looked ALL OVER last time. [Possibly? It's all kinda hazy. There was a bear, he remembers a bear.]

And I don't see anyone else here, except for you, Mr. Disembodied Spirit Voice.

[This isn't fair, it's Aang's job to talk to the spirits, it's his job to make the plans and offer witty commentary. They should stick to their own jobs.]

[wilder]

[Okay, there's a lot of things he could say, but he'll say the least helpful one]

...How can you see a disembodied voice?

[carreau]

[ There is someone laughing at you. ]

So, so, what happened with the owl?

[alwayscomeback]

Rude.

And it's a long story, but the moral is: don't trick giant spirit librarians and try to steal their scrolls. They get really testy about it and try to bury you in their library for all time.

[carreau]

Wow~ But you escaped, so that's good!

[alwayscomeback]

Well, yeah, but that's we're all about. Being awesome, getting out of scrapes, saving the world.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

You know... I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that you're not actually dead.

[hi, there's this pale-looking, leather-wearing guy on the video feed. what's up?]

[alwayscomeback]

[At least he's noticed the communicator by now, and knows he should be freaked out by it. But his chip lets him know everything there is to know about it, cold, calculated knowledge, right in his brain. He doesn't like it.

It gives him the heebies.

The guy on the feed isn't much better.]

Wellll, I was about two seconds from a horrible firey death, so it's an easy conclusion to jump to.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[sympathetic nodding!]

Oh, I can understand. But if you're dead, the rest of us are probably dead too, and I'm not ready for that kind of commitment.

[alwayscomeback]

I'm pretty sure that you die if you're ready or not. Most of the time it's just 'surprise, you're dead!'

[sugoooi]

Hey! Heeeey, hi! Can you see me?? The toilets are in the hall room between the one you woke up in and the kinda bigger one!

They're sliding doors. I missed them the first time too.

[alwayscomeback]

[OH SWEET MERCIFUL SPIRITS, BATHROOMS!!!]

YOU, are a king among men.

[sugoooi]

Ehehe! I'm not that great~ You don't need to go that far! [ But wow does it feel great to hear praise like that :D ]

[alwayscomeback]

No, no. You don't get how awful it is to be stuck for twenty four hours in a place without anyone to say 'hey, the bathrooms are THIS way'. I owe you one, buddy.

[optimystic]

Oh, don't worry, you're not dead!

[alwayscomeback]

That's so reassuring after my brush with certain death and waking up in a strange place.

[optimystic]

That's what I'm here for. [ouch, that sounds rough]

The bad news is that you've been kidnapped and now you're in space.

[alwayscomeback]

I hate to tell you, but if reassuring people is your job, YOU'RE NOT DOING THAT GREAT.

[mirroromirror]

Hey! [ oh no, panic mode :c

miyuki jogs over--she's short and petite, clad in pink and blue with bright yellow bows in her hair. ]

You're not alone, it's okay! Are you hurt? [ wait had he said about... bathrooms... ] Um... the restroom is just around the corner.

[alwayscomeback]

[Oh hey, its another person, who clearly isn't Fire Nation, which is super good.]

I have...had? A broken leg? [He looks down at it, confused.] I think someone healed it?

[He brightens at the mention of restrooms.] Then this definitely isn't the spirit world.

[mirroromirror]

What's the spirit world?

[ she cants her head. ]

[alwayscomeback]

It's the world.





Where the spirits live.
