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.

"Right." She stayed put. "Maybe I should head out..."
no subject
"... you don't have to. You should stay. I'll just... be a few minutes up here. I need something from my room."

There was nothing else that needed to be said, so she just left. She didn't head back out right away, only downstairs, needing some time alone, away from everyone else.

Even as he sat on his bed, his attempts to simply accept it failed. There was something else boiling in him. It was an emotion he didn't even truly have when he was soulless. It was anger. And this anger wasn't at himself. It was what happened to him. This wasn't fair. He died a hero. He gave his life for other people. What kind of twisted karma was it that he had to lose Suki forever for being a hero? It was infuriating to realize that he'd lost so much trying to be a hero. It wasn't fair. It was wrong.
Unable to simply stew in one place in his bed, his anger became physical. He kicked the nearby table over. At first he righted the table up again and began to put the wooden figure that had been sitting on it back on top of it. Instead, he gritted his teeth and threw the figure at the wall. He knocked over a few other things as he worked through his anger and frustration. His room was a mess by the time he finally was able to cool off, leaving him to stand by the window, quietly watching his friends laugh and enjoy the pool.
At least they had something to be happy about.
