I thought this holiday was supposed to be good for couples. So far it's been really disappointing.

I'll be happy if I never have to hear "Valentine's Day" ever again.

[And boyfriends have been equally disappointing; she feels like she's barely seen him for days. Stupid Sokka and his stupid other-girl friends. Stupid holiday. Stupid- ... ( Read more... )

[Meanwhile, oblivious to the CW Brand drama that's going on inside her own house, Katara just came back from practicing with her bo outside. But - woe! - her wood oil seems to have gone missing.

Clueless, Katara goes to knock on Suki's door.]

Hey, Suki, have you seen my--

[Assuming that she opens the door or gets cut off here.]

[She is certainly cut off- by Suki's best attempt at the "crying but trying to pretend not to" voice.]

Just leave me alone!

[Oh - no, that's not gonna fly.

Katara cracks the door opened. Visual confirmation to make sure her friend and her brother's girlfriend is physically intact is necessary, sorry.]

Suki?

[No, no, no, this is not cool at all. Suki just rolls away from the door, remaining curled up and half-hidden in the blankets on her bed. Go awaaaay she just wants to have her cry.]

[...not even looking up at her when she goes in? Not good.

Katara steps inside and closes the door quietly after her.]

What happened?

[Suki was so strong - what could have done this?]

[Suki is just gonna stay in her corner and radiate misery. Reeeeaaally wishing Katara hadn't come in, now.]

You should ask Sokka.

[Imagine the tone one might use to refer to, say... Azula. Ozai. The Southern Raiders.

Yeah, she is not a happy camper.]

I will.

[She takes two hesitant steps into the room. Suki really doesn't look so good.]

But right now I'm asking you.

[What had her idiot brother done now? Weren't they all happy just two days ago? Hadn't she had to leave the dinner table early?]

[She doesn't want to explain- she doesn't even want to say it, not before she's even come to terms with what he's done. She doesn't even know how to explain it.

It doesn't help that she feels like a complete idiot... falling for it, all this time.]

He... he's... [...Hic. Sob. Sniff.] He's in love w-with someone else...

[...I'm sorry, did you just hit her with a hammer between her eyes?]

What? No - no way. That's impossible.

Tell him that!

[Katara seriously does this look impossible to you, THERE IS VERY REAL PAIN HERE OKAY]

[Katara sees the pain. But that doesn't make it any less impossible. All those hints he'd dropped about marrying Suki? The look on his face when she gave him his Christmas present? How happy he was when she got here?

Katara doesn't believe it.]

Believe me, I will.

[And she crosses the room to sit down on the corner of Suki's bed.]

Suki, I don't know what happened, but - I don't believe it. I know he loves you.

[Suki huddles even further into her blankets. She doesn't want to hear it. To believe that means to believe that he'd rather hurt her like this than explain himself.]

Then why... why would he tell me something like that!? This isn't s-some kind of joke!

[That startles her - she thought that maybe there had been some sort of misunderstanding...]

He told you that?

[ action ] markofthebrave February 16 2011, 07:45:36 UTC
[...no. Just... no.

Katara reaches out, places a comforting hand on Suki's shoulder.]

Suki... what did he say?

[Whyyyy are you making her relive this, ugh. She doesn't want to remember all this!]

H-he said... it's because we were apart f-for so long. Because he's been here, and I... [It's not her fault!] There was someone else, but... when I came...

[An idiot, such an idiot...!]

He's been lying to me! This whole time, there's been someone...!

[...what.

...No, seriously. What?

Maybe if this had happened a few weeks ago, Katara would have had a second's doubt. But after seeing Sokka with Suki - after watching them be reunited so happily again?

She doesn't believe it. Not even for a second.

...but it's obvious to her that Suki does.]

Suki... I don't know how or why he came to such an idiotic conclusion, but that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Do you remember how happy he was when you first came here? He didn't shut-up for days. Do you really think Sokka could fake that? There's just no way.
