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?]

[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.]

[Action]

[kyoshi]

[...Oi. Bird.] What's his problem?
