We are the named and we are known

[lucetimods]

Who: All Draftees
What: Arriving at the dorms
When: 26th
Where: Dorms, location unknown
Summary: Dorm information is here. This is your room!
Rating: PG... we hope?

Your characters are shuffling off to their rooms. Each room has their name beside it and only they can open the door. People can only enter their room if they're allowed in (or they leave the door open). Characters will find any requested items in their room already. If they have a requested vehicle, there will be another door in their room that will take them to the hangar to inspect their equipment.

((Mod note: Extra draftees won't experience their Shift Incompatibility handicap in their dorms. :|a))

Yeah. I'm calling up a hot tub later.

[Entering now and peering in.]

Having fun?

[Yay, flippancy.]

[markofthewise]

[Hot tubs are cool. Maybe he should do that too.]

I guess. You missed the cartoon earlier. That stupid bird kept running away from the wolf.

[Cartoons are cooool.]

[markofthebrave]

Did the wolf catch it?

[markofthewise]

... no. He kept getting hurt by his own traps. [Sokka feels for that poor coyote, he really does.]

[markofthebrave]

Then I guess that bird wasn't that stupid after all.

[Shockingly, Katara can appreciate both sides of this story.]

[markofthewise]

The bird didn't do anything smart! These 'Acme' people keep making stuff that never works. If he had quality traps, he would have caught that bird right off!

[markofthebrave]

He's a coyote, Sokka. He shouldn't be using traps in the first place! Why can't he just run and catch the bird?

[markofthewise]

Because the bird is super fast! So he makes up for not being as fast as the bird by using his brain, so he's not just as good, but better.

[It's like they made a cartoon about Sokka...]

[markofthebrave]

[Yeah, Katara's not buying it.]

Then why doesn't he catch a different bird?

[markofthewise]

It's a desert! That's the only one around!

[markofthebrave]

[Uh-huh.]

Then where is he getting the traps from?

[markofthewise]

It's really unclear.

[markofthebrave]

[Eyeroll. Sitting on your bed now.]

So are you all set?

[...it's weird not going into battle with you.]

[markofthewise]

Yeah. Well, almost. Still got to, you know, put my stuff together. I color coordinated the bombs this time. Blue for smoke, green for explosive, red for stink, and orange for flash. [If there's some parallel to the Four Nations there, it's probably somehow an offensive one.]

But yeah. I'm ready. You? [It was your choice to split up, after all.]

[markofthebrave]

[She smirks a little at his color coding, but loses her grip on her humor shortly after.]

Yeah, I guess. Chouji and I talked again so... that's good, at least.

[Considering they'll be going out together to fight and all.]

[markofthewise]

Yeah... good.

[He still needs to meet the guy who may have been making out with his sister. Especially since he didn't go running off into the mountains.]

I can't believe you're going out there with Kida.

[markofthebrave]

[Katara glances back up at him. It's the space of a blink for her to realize who he's talking about, since Katara calls him by his first name.]

He can fight. I would have asked Shikamaru to take him off the team otherwise.

[...and yes, this is a new assurance. Feel free to note it as such.]

[markofthewise]

Really? Didn't strike me as the type.

[Not that he's in a state of disbelief or anything. This is Luceti. Appearances mean nothing here.]

[markofthebrave]

[Wryly:] Yeah, me either.

[markofthewise]

So... normal power or crazy wacky powers?

[markofthebrave]

[A hand instinctively goes to her rib, but it will look like a natural motion.] Really strong and really fast. He's... [a gang leader, but she as good as promised that she wouldn't say that. This hesitation lasts barely a half of a second.] a 'street fighter.' Like a brawler.

[markofthewise]

[A street fighter. The most he can think of here is some of the thugs in Boiling Rock prison. That still doesn't quite fit what he's seen of Kida.]

Right... well, if he can fight, good enough. [Kida is Shikamaru's responsibility, not Sokka's.]

[markofthebrave]

I guess so. [...she probably should talk to Shikamaru about him, actually. The way he shut down... it had scared her a little.]

[markofthewise]

[... okay, he just stares at Katara. He knows she has a tendency to get focused on these kind of things, but she seems a bit wrapped up in this.]

... worried about him?

[markofthebrave]

[Blink.] Hmm?

[What had they been talking about? Oh - yeah. Masaomi.]

Maybe a little. I don't think he's had to fight like this before. But I think he'll be all right.

What about you? I don't think you guys will get hit too hard today - they won't know where you are.
