Hmm... is this on? ....

Talking to a book just feels silly.

This is going to take a while to get used to, that's for sure. Oh, and this may be belated, but I do need to thank everyone who helped me out when I first arrived! Especially the author of that guide. I'd be asking so many more questions without that.

I do have one question, though... what does everyone do about the wings? Usually they don't bother me much, but it's hard to sleep with them. I never seem to rest well on my s- whoa!

[Suki is interrupted by a shrieking sound, and a sudden red flash over the journal's camera as she's divebombed. There's a moment of scuffling about.]

What in the- oh! ...Really? Let me see...

...Sokka? Someone's looking for you.


[So Suki can be found walking home from her trek around the lake, but she isn't coming home alone. She has a red-feathered bird on her arm, sitting all polite and pretty, but obviously somewhat unsettled. There's a message tube capsule on its back. Bother her?]

[Sokka blinks at the note. He raises his arm, causing Hawky to edge along his arm to his shoulder, so he can open up the note. He quickly reads it over and raises his eyebrows. What... the hell.]

... it's from Catherine. He says... the meteor rock is here. [Dryly:] And a box of tea leaves.

[Action]

[kyoshi]

[Suki blinks at that, then giggles quietly.]

He's a strange guy, isn't he?

[Action]

[markofthewise]

You're telling me. [Sokka folds up the note and then grins back up at Hawky again.]

Wow, if Hawky is here, that means Momo and Appa could be here too!

[Action]

[kyoshi]

I think Appa would be hard to miss.

[Action]

[markofthewise]

You say that, but we managed in the Fire Nation for months.

[Action]

[kyoshi]

Luceti's a bit smaller than the Fire Nation, though.

[Action]

[markofthewise]

... yeah, that's true. [Appaaaaaa ;_;]

[Action]

[kyoshi]

Well, just because Hawky came first doesn't mean Appa won't. It must take a while to move a giant flying bison.

[Action]

[markofthewise]

Yeah, well-- oh! [What was he thinking? He turns to Hawky.]

Hawky, this is Suki. She's one of us. Remember, you can deliver messages for her, but not for Katara. [He then leans over to Suki and whispers:] Katara stole Hawky without telling me.

[Action]

[kyoshi]

[This face.] Stole him?

[Action]

[markofthewise]

Yeah! She sent him off to the Earth Kingdom to deliver a message for Toph. And she didn't even ask! [And that was the last time he ever saw Hawky...]

[Action]

[kyoshi]

[Oh, Katara. At least she did it for a good cause.]

The Earth Kingdom was probably pretty far away. Maybe it took longer than Katara thought it would? Or he couldn't find you on his way back. You moved around a lot.

[Action]

[markofthewise]

He could have been lost, looking for us. Eaten by predators! Or stolen by some seedy merchant! [He looks over at Hawky and wibbles.]

Who knows what he went through before Catherine brought him here...

[Action]

[kyoshi]

...He looks fine to me.

[Action]

[markofthewise]

That's just because Hawky is such a trooper!

[Action]

[kyoshi]

He does seem kind of tough. Did he get that from you?

[Action]

[markofthewise]

Well I do like to think I was a positive influence on him. [For.... that one whole day he owned him.]

[Action]

[kyoshi]

[Suuuuure, Sokka.] ...He doesn't tell bad jokes, does he?

[Action]

[markofthewise]

Maybe he can't tell a good joke, but his delivery is perfect! [Rimshot.]

[Action]

[kyoshi]

[Face. Palm.]

[Action]

[markofthewise]

... well I thought it was a good one.

[Action]

[kyoshi]

It was very... you.

[Action]

[markofthewise]

So that would be a good thing, then!

[Action]

[kyoshi]

Well, I like it.

[Action]

[markofthewise]

Oh Suki! [He leans in to give her a kiss on the cheek, but Hawky starts flapping wildly and make a fuss and forces Sokka off.]
