Arriving at the Facility

[hageshii]

Who: All Draftees!
What: Arriving at the dorms
When: As of this morning
Where: The dorm facilities outside the enclosure
Summary: General shenanigans for people inside the dorms.
Rating: PG-13, probably.

[After traveling through the tunnels, draftees will arrive in the hotel-like dorm facilities. For information on what to expect, please read here! This is open comment log for anyone, so threadjack away! But remember, you can only enter someone's room if they let you.

If you haven't already, check out this post and get your character assigned to a team!]

SPECIAL NOTE!! - Since this didn't come up before (but should have, my bad), there are actually a minimum of 400 Third Party soldiers in each area as opposed to in total. This means there are 1200 of them over all.

[Katara found her room without a problem, and shut the door behind her. This is all so weird. Even the rooms are weird. And it feels... just wrong, to be able to ask for whatever she wants, but before she heads out there one more time, she is going to make a single request.

A hot tub. Big enough to swim in.

She turns around - and there it is. Anyone walking by might hear a surprised 'Whoop!' and then a loud 'Yes!'

She'll be running out shortly after to share the small excitement. This is excellent. Now anyone who's hurt can just come lie in the tub, and she'll be able to take care of them! Not to mention -- hot tub!]

[Well he was going to come over and tell her how to use the buzzer to request things, but... looks like she figured it out already. And ordered a hot tub. Jeez.]

I don't think we have enough time for that.

[markofthebrave]

[She turns around and sticks her tongue out at him.] You won't say that after a long day of fighting. That hot tub is going to feel great.

[Note that she does not tell him her other reason for requesting it - or invite him in.]

[markofthewise]

[He's fine just leaning in the doorway anyway.]

True. I could get one in my room. Sit in there, in my hot tub... watching the demon box.

[markofthebrave]

Demon box?

[markofthewise]

[He points in her room.]

The television. It's what Master Souji called it, anyway.

[markofthebrave]

[She glances from the television to Sokka a few times. Darnit, when are you going to try to come in uninvited, she wants to see if the security in this place actually works!]

Is it a television or a demon box?

[markofthewise]

[He'll just... step on inside and look around.]

It's a television. There should be... as mall black rectangular thing with a lot of buttons on it in here.

[markofthebrave]

[...Darn. She moves around him to shut the door behind him.]

What's it for? And why were you calling it a demon box?

[markofthewise]

It turns it on. [He starts looking for the remote, eventually spotting it.] Master Souji is a little superstitious, so... demon box. It's actually just really advanced technology. Paru has one in her house. [He turns the television on. What's on? A cheesy, poorly acted soap opera.]

1/2

[markofthebrave]

[...Staring.

Just. Staring. For like five minutes.]

[markofthebrave]

...are they on cactus juice?

[markofthewise]

[Yeah, Sokka... has no idea. This is just awful and nothing like kickass Jackie Chan fighting.]

... I have no idea. Maybe they're this world's version of the Ember Island Players.

[markofthebrave]

[She makes a face.] Turn it off.

[markofthewise]

[Gladly, he does so.]

... the stuff Paru showed me was a lot better.

[markofthebrave]

It would really almost have to be.

[She pauses and triiiiiiiiies to act casual.] Hey, do you have a minute?

[markofthewise]

[... you're not doing a good job. He's already worried.]

... I guess? Why?

[markofthebrave]

[She turns and starts rummaging around in her backpack - ah, there it is.]

Do you think you could fix this so I could wear it on my upper arm?

[And she turns to hold out the small bracelet made of two bent glass tubes, some string, and a chain. She might be a little shy about it.]

[markofthewise]

[Sokka takes it and holds it up to the light for a better look. He's clearly impressed.]

Wow, awesome. [He nods, though.] Sure, I can do that. Where'd you get it? [Can he tell she's very attached to it? Oh yes. It definitely is not from the store.]

[markofthebrave]

Allen gave it to me just before we left. But I can't wear it and my wrist guards as it is, so if I wore it like I wore those Fire Nation bracelets...

[You can fix it, right? Right?]

[markofthewise]

Allen, huh?

[Iiiiinteresting. In the meantime, Sokka opens up his bag of holding and gets some of the material he'll need. He'll have to tear a few bits from his stuff, but it's no great loss. He just knows he can't use anything from the room. So once he's done that and ordered the proper tools he'll need, he'll pull up a chair to the bed and start using that as his personal workspace.]

[markofthebrave]

[She will be... attempting to not peer over your shoulder.

It doesn't work so well.

Don't break it, Sokka!]

[markofthewise]

[Don't worry! He's being careful. Even so, he's not like Katara. He likes to talk while he works.]

I didn't realize you and Allen were so close.

[markofthebrave]

He's a nice guy. I'd like to think that we're friends.

[She's starting to get the feeling that maybe she should have asked Usopp to fix this for her. =\]

[markofthewise]

Wow. If this is what friends give to each other, I'm going to have to find something really good for Suki.

[With a bit more effort, he finishes it. He turns around and holds it out for her.] See if it fits.
