Sokka the 67th - [Action/Voice]

[markofthewise]

[Well, apparently the experiment was over. Sokka was glad for that. He was also in his rightful body. He had to suffer a kiss from Haruhi for it, but that seemed worth it to have his body back. A small price to pay and all that. That meant that with all the madness over, he could finally get back to work. He felt rusty, but once he was back in the

[Flexing, you say? There's a ninja girlfriend who is entirely too amused by this. Just what is he doing? She hasn't noticed a change in his muscles recently, nice as they are. If anything, didn't he kind of slack off on training?

Well, whatever- Sokka will be Sokka, and in general he's very silly. So she shrugs it off and sneaks over to give him a backwards hug. Surprise! (Maybe she likes doing this too much.)]

Oh, I'm interested. Intrigued, really. Do elaborate, please.

[But maybe this isn't the right place to do it. Maybe they need more... privacy.]

[She leans in meaningfully, getting niiiiice and close... then tilts her head and whispers in his ear.]

It's an elite, secret technique passed down from warrior to warrior from Avatar Kyoshi herself. Are you sure you can handle it?

[Action]

[... Avatar Kyoshi. Blink.]

I... wait, what?

[Action]

[sokkafangirl]

[An innocent blink in return.]

Um- one of my ideas. It's a really good exercise routine I was taught before I became the leader of the Kyoshi Warriors. It's great for developing stomach muscles!

[Action]

[markofthewise]

... oh. Yeah. Um, that sounds great! We should do it!

[sob.]

[Well that's what you get for shunning your girlfriend's physical advances for a month, honey- she just assumes you're not interested. even if that wasn't you]

Wanna try it out soon? I've got a free afternoon, and we could head to the battle dome.

[This may very well be the death of him. Cruel and unusual punishment.]

Yeah... sure! And then afterward we could... do something special.

[Action]

[sokkafangirl]

...Special?

[Her response is... wary. Is he suggesting what she thinks he's suggesting, or is this just a well-tossed bone that she's misinterpreting?]

[Action]

[markofthewise]

[sob, Haruhi, what have you done to my wife-to-be.]

Yeah. Special. Like... maybe not going home tonight sort of special. [... SMOULDER.]

[Action]

[sokkafangirl]

[...Wait, he's serious?]

You mean...

[That special?]

[Action]

[markofthewise]

Oh, I mean.

[He waggles his eyebrows. Over a year of dating and he's still not much better at this.]

[sokkafangirl]

[This time she gives him a somewhat teasing expression, one final test before she starts doing mental cartwheels at the return to normalcy.]

What's gotten into you all of a sudden? I've been wondering if you didn't like me anymore.

[Which, despite the playful nature of the question and her thoughts (at the time) of it being nothing too out of the ordinary, has been kind of a Big Deal recently.]

[Action]

[markofthewise]

[Well... how does he explain that...]

It wasn't you. I just... wasn't feeling like myself this past month. [He isn't lying there, at least.] I'm sorry about that.

[And sorry for the things she'd probably never forgive him for if she knew.]

[Action]

[sokkafangirl]

[And apparently will never know, for that matter.]

...Well... I guess if you're really sorry, you can make it up to me somehow.

[If he's really, really creative about it.

And begs a little.

And gives her something pretty.]

[Action]

[markofthewise]

You're not going to make this one easy, are you?

[Not that he minds the challenge. He just might need longer than a day.]
