Book 16: Drained [Voice/Action]

[Voice]

[It had been easy enough to assume that Sokka had still been kidnapped - that he'd be back any day. It was worrying, but there was still the assurance of his eventual return. Except that eventually, his room was checked. And found empty. There wasn't even a sign of Foo Foo Cuddlypoops. It was hard to believe - when Aang had first gotten to Luceti, he had gotten used to Sokka being the man with the answers. And also a beard. He was like a big figure of the town. And now he was gone. Katara wasn't in a state to announce it herself, so Aang eventually did it. Making it quick and to the point.]

Hi everyone. This is Aang. I'm sorry to tell you all this, but Sokka has gone back home. I know we're all gonna miss him. I already do. But at least at home... the last time I saw him there, he was happy.

[Action]

[Aang spends some time over by the statue of Sokka's head located House 56, studying the image of his best friend. He tries to meditate and tries to imagine the inspiring words that Sokka would usually say. Because he's still afraid of being around other people. And right now, the people dear to him may need him more than ever.]

I...knew something like that had happened, but wasn't sure what it was, exactly.

I'm sorry I couldn't meet the Sokka you knew, too.
prims: (= well. explanations.)

...If you don't mind telling me about him, I'd be happy to hear it.

[ It's true, too. ]

[ While Aang talks, Prim just listens, quietly. She doesn't interrupt, doesn't ask any questions. She just listens to the story of Sokka as he was meant to be. Not the man she'd met at her birthday, months ago, the one who'd been with Katniss.

This was a different Sokka, with people who were grieving the loss of him.

At the end, she's quiet for a moment.

If Katniss had gone away, how would she feel? And what could anyone say to make such a thing better? ]


...He sounds really amazing. I'm sorry I never got the chance to speak to that Sokka, the one you knew.
prims: (- say what now?)

...I'll remember the things you told me today when I think of him, then.

[ That he was important to someone like Aang, who she met the first day she'd come here, and who smiled almost all the time.

Who wasn't smiling now, she didn't think. ]


And I'll always listen. I mean - if you ever need to talk to someone about anything.
prims: (= well. explanations.)

voice;

[personal profile] prims 2013-12-06 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
You are, too, Aang. And I...can't think of anything, right now.

[ The fact that she died, and how she died...while there might be nightmares sometimes, she's at peace with it. More or less.

And she hasn't lost Katniss. ]


...I've been learning to speak to Nala, lately.

[ That's pretty much her only news. ]
prims: (= i suppose.)

[ She's only brought it up twice, really. Chouji, and then Makie. Chouji who asked, and Makie who told her the story of her own home. ]

I wouldn't mind that. Before - you know the time we all had big wings? With the spirits? Before that, I never really considered talking to them, even though people told me about it. But then, when Nala was spending time with me...

...I just liked her voice. So I thought it'd be nice.
prims: (+ color me interested.)

voice;

[personal profile] prims 2013-12-06 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
I'm hoping not. I heard she's really good with healing, and...well, I want to be a healer. A doctor. So, I think that'd help, right?

[ And it's not like she can fight, so... ]

What spirits can you talk to, Aang?
prims: (+ maybe so.)

voice;

[personal profile] prims 2013-12-06 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
Kipinn, that's...the wind spirit, right?
prims: (+ you i like.)

[personal profile] prims 2013-12-06 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
In that case, I guess it's not any surprise you contacted him.

[ Because airbender. ]
prims: (= you sure?)

[personal profile] prims 2013-12-06 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Two...cat owls?

[ W h a t. ]
prims: (= interest! hmm.)

voice;

[personal profile] prims 2013-12-06 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Um...I'm not sure. What are Zoobooks?
prims: (+ laughing.)

Oh! I know cats and owls, yes. I have a cat, even.
