Hey, can I ask you guys a favor?


[Private to Derek]
Hey, Derek. Sokka said Donnie was passing on a message from you - that you were ready to give it a try? So when would you like to do this?


[Filtered 100 percent away from Sokka]
Hey, everyone. I know it's incredibly lousy timing, but it's Sokka's birthday tomorrow. Obviously we're not throwing a party or anything, but if you see him... [what's she going to say? Wish him a 'happy birthday' the day before we all go out to war? Her tone becomes wry.] ...give him a hug or something. I'm sure he'll love that.

((OOC: Tags back will come after the mun has slept.))

Well, it's not like you guys planned to come back to town for it. I'm sure he'll understand.

[kyoshi]

Maybe I should try to find something now? If there's enough time.

[markofthebrave]

[Shrug.] If you want, we can make time. It's not like we need to do that much before we head out - we're just stuck here waiting.

[There might be a slight sulk here. Waiting sucks.]

[kyoshi]

[Oh, she totally understands that. Waiting is the worst.]

I'll give it some thought. It might be nicer to take my time instead of rushing it, but... I'd feel bad about not getting him anything.

[markofthebrave]

I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you got him two.

[It's Sokka.]

[kyoshi]

Yeah, that's true too. Maybe I'll find something if I look around.

[Though she needs to make time for practice, too- there's something she's been neglecting.]

[markofthebrave]

It couldn't hurt. [heh.] You could always get him a new bag.

[kyoshi]

Maybe I should just take him out for a day of shopping and he can get whatever he wants.

[markofthebrave]

[Laughter.] He'd probably like that too.

[Boys and shopping, am I right?]

[kyoshi]

[So right.]

Thanks, Katara. I'm sure this'll help.

[A beat- as she remembers something she ought to have mentioned before they took off.]

Hey, Katara? About that last experiment... I know I thanked you then, but I wanted to do it again, now that I'm in my right mind and everything. What you did for Sokka and I... it really made a difference. So- so thank you. I won't ever forget that.
