Extreme Makeover: Luceti Edition

Who: The Avatar Cast, any passerbys who want to gawk
What: Upgrading the Avatar House
When: Today, evening
Where: House 56
Summary: Sokka tries to make up to his housemates by using up his remaining points to make a crowded house much more spacious
Rating: Avatarlicious


That morning, Sokka contacted the Malnosso to use up most of his points. Not only did he recover some of his possessions he had lost when he died, but he opted to make the house bigger. Already there'd been issues after Zuko showed up and with Toph's arrival, there was just too little house for them all to fit into. More upsetting was the realization there was no room for Suki if she ever came back. So despite the knowledge that he might need those points for something else later, he took the hit instead. And so, the upgrade commenced.

He'd been intrigued to watch the house seem to just rebuild itself. He'd delivered the blueprints to the Malnosso and this upgrade would fortunately shift some of the rooms around just as it was supposed to. And it was the afternoon, which meant everyone should be out of the house and would be quite surprised when they returned from their wandering about. Of course, he had some other adjustments to make that would require his bender friends to work on. The Malnosso wouldn't include a free slide with it (after all, he used that free high level reward for a hot tub instead). So he intended to get the first earthbender he found to help him with that. Then of course, they would need to carve a hole in the ground and fill it up with water for a pool. But eventually, after getting that all sorted out, it was complete. The Avatar house had become twice as fun and despite how miserable he'd been lately, Sokka felt good about things.

And so he sent out a message on the journals inviting everyone home. He included an invitation to Suki and Ty Lee to check it out too. They may not have been living at the house, but he was hoping this might change Suki's mind.

By the time everyone else arrives, the pool will be ready (thanks to whoever got roped into making it) and Sokka will have even stocked up on sodas and junk foods for them to eat. He'd have made some good food for them to eat, but... he's Sokka. Junk food will just have to do.

Historical fact, mostly. That, and the fact I can get away with calling him Hotlord.

It could be worse.

[ At least things seemed to get better for Zuko as he aged. But that was a weird topic for everyone, herself included, so she was okay with Sokka disappearing underwater instead of asking more.

Especially so she could dip her hands into the water and send a mini-whirlpool after him. ]

[ She sticks out her tongue at him. ]

Go ahead, but no one's going to read it.

"Everyone does. I mean, have you seen Aang's marble trick?"

It was one for the ages.

"That doesn't mean it's not a good one!" Some things were eternal with the Avatar spirit. Marble tricks were one of them.

Korra gasped dramatically. "Sokka! I'm shocked. Are you saying your niece isn't a good bender?"

Korra looked at him with the same shocked expression, before she turned in Ikki's general direction and cupped her hands to her mouth.

"IKKI! UNCLE SOKKA THINKS YOU'RE NOT A GOOD BENDER BECAUSE YOU'RE SEVEN!"
breezing: (- sulkity sulk. WELL FINE.)

korra used TATTLE. it was super effective!

That was a distinctly Ikki-like move, Korra, wow. It obviously works, though - Ikki turns away from what she's doing - kicking her feet in the pool where she sits on the edge - and pouts, jumping up.

Instead of coming over, however, she shouts back.

"I AM SO A GOOD BENDER, UNCLE SOKKA!!! I'M GRANDPA'S BEST STUDENT SO THERE."

Sorry Korra.

Wow, rude, Ikki. Even if Korra can hardly argue with that, considering Ikki can actually bend air. Still, mission accomplished.

Korra grinned unassumingly. "You're welcome."

Korra grimaced. "Ahem - you're exactly right. Ikki's great, and she was born an airbender, so I don't mind."

Oh, that was hard to say.

"I still think that's a terrible name!" She chimed after him.

Isn't he so glad they decided to try being friends again?
