05: [Kinda happy audio!] backdated to Tuesday evening

Apr 28, 2010 02:25

[Sokka is better. Much better.

Well, certainly better than he was, and he definitely sounds happy, though his treatment from AMU was not the most pleasant.]

SO. You guys.

Guess who has two thumbs and can make this joke again?

[He is definitely pointing at himself with his thumbs. Not that anyone could see that on an audio feed. He ignores ( Read more... )

you know what would be cool, !!elegante, the idea guy, wait what, stubby no more, teen boy squad, a dangerous pastime i know

[Hiccup can only assume this new arm of yours is, essentially, Gobber's.]

Please tell me you got more than just a thumb attachment. What good is that for?

withanokka April 28 2010, 06:34:36 UTC

[Sokka grins.

When you see it, you are going to pass masonry.]

No, no. Hiccup.

It's a real arm.

talkingfishbone April 28 2010, 06:52:01 UTC

...Yeah.

Uh-huh.

Lemme see it.

[AWAITS YOUR BACKPEDALING.]

withanokka April 28 2010, 06:53:18 UTC

Where are you? I'll show you. And the scar it's attached with.

It's an awesome scar.

[He's not only pedaling forward, but down a hill...]

[hey you know, those burns were really not cool. And he's been laying up in his room trying not to move too much because ow seriously. But he's staring at his comm bewilderedly.]

... Wait, what.

I think the tagline for team boy squad is "wait what." They all say it, I think withanokka April 28 2010, 06:37:21 UTC

Seriously! Real, working arm. It's awesome.

[Pain associated with attaching it? Naaaaah, he's not gonna talk about that.]

I haven't heard from you. How'd that... thing, go?

well they set each other up so wonderfully for it..... believeslegends April 28 2010, 06:39:24 UTC

So like... a cyborg arm? Cool.

[heeey we're not going to talk about this either.]

Uh... It didn't.

see keywords withanokka April 28 2010, 06:41:58 UTC

No, it's real! Like, flesh, blood. I can write with it. It's awesome.

[Actually, he hasn't figured out if it's anything more or less than a real arm.]

...wait, what?

[Sokka's turn to say it!]

Sounds wonderful. Are you feeling better, Sokka?

[GLAUKIR WAS WORRIED ;A;]

withanokka April 28 2010, 16:27:50 UTC

Ah-- yeah! Yeah, I am.

[Sokka fumbles for something to say other than something about his undying gratitude.]

The robot guy gave me a new arm. And, uh...

[To tell Glaukir or to not tell Glaukir? ...Oh, wait, Toph told everyone already, hasn't she?]

I got burned by Azula. The robot healed that, too.

lilyground April 28 2010, 21:02:36 UTC

You lost an arm, too?

withanokka April 28 2010, 21:50:11 UTC

Yeah, when, uh... at the theatre.

[Where all those people died. He pushes the thought out of his head.]

But, the robot thing fixed it!

lilyground April 28 2010, 21:52:54 UTC

[Lily does the same, though that voice on the edge of her mind reminds her of how she can't fucking save anyone.]

AMU? It's good at that. Some other guy fixed mine.

withanokka April 28 2010, 21:56:28 UTC

[Interest: piqued.]

You mean, Glaukir?

...you have a teen boy squad tag? |D skin_and_steel April 29 2010, 03:58:12 UTC

[Hearing about "getting an arm" gets his attention immediately. So casually, as though it were some sort of cosmetic surgery.]

Wait, so you lost your entire arm and could just get it replaced? This wouldn't have anything to do with the... uh, the cirus, carnival/whatever they call it, would it? I've heard some nasty things about that.

I do now |D withanokka April 29 2010, 04:04:14 UTC

You're new around here, right?

[Sokka pauses, trying to condense the story in his head.]

Loooong story short, when we tried to get that girl out of the theatre, I lost my arm trying to get Toph-- my friend-- out of there, and... yeah! I got a new one.

[This time it's a little less casually. He's just assuming all the gaps in your knowledge have been filled in by other people, Ed...]

Niiiice skin_and_steel April 29 2010, 13:35:30 UTC

[He hates himself for how badly he wants to ask. There were no doubt stipulations on how a person could get a new limb, and he would have felt like shit getting one when his brother was still in a suit of armor.

Still, knowledge was better than knowing nothing at all.]

Can you just... ask for a new arm? Or are there certain things you need to do in order to get one?

[Noticing the change in Sokka's tone, Ed takes it to mean that this is obviously something he's still bothered by.]

I've heard nothing but horror stories about that theater - well, to be frank, just about damn "event" on this boat. I-I'm s- [god, he was so bad at this] sorry you had to go through that. I... I did get a few details about what happened.

withanokka April 29 2010, 14:29:38 UTC

[Sokka laughs a bit. As he thinks about it, he realizes how crazy it sounds. Lost an arm, got a new one? Riiiiight. Something that should be a debilitating injury for life was completely undone in less than two weeks. Well, it could have been fixed the next day if he had gotten there sooner.]

Actually, I was kind of surprised how easy it was. Toph had told me about the robot-- AMU. She said it could do all sorts of stuff like that. It healed my burns that I got a couple of days ago, too...

But he did it without any kind of pay. I guess it's because we're passengers. I mean, we don't really pay for anything here.

[Sokka, out of lack of better things to do with his pent-up energy, stretches while he listens to Ed. He rubs his neck a little self-consciously before picking up the communicator again.]

Thanks. [You can almost hear the distance in his voice.] It was pretty bad. Really, pretty bad, yeah.
