Rude Awakening | [Voice]

[theideaguy]

[[In the forest in the eastern outskirts of town, Sokka wakes up with a minor freakout.  He certainly had not gone to bed wearing these clothes (honestly, who in the four nations even wore white?), not to mention that the clothes he had been wearing are right next to him.  There is a major pain in his back that no amount of stretching would make go away.  And lastly, when he reaches up to pull Boomerang out, it isn't there.

Somewhere in the back of his head, he certainly feels wings where his club and boomerang should have been instead, but the loss of Boomerang is definitely the most pressing detail of this awkward awakening for at least a full minute.

Thus begins a very frantic search of the surrounding area to find said boomerang, but all he finds of note is a rather peculiar book lying beneath his folded clothing.  He reaches down to examine the book and as he opened it to the front, starts pressing a few buttons almost randomly.]]

[[There are a few seconds of pause as he investigates it, before the wings dawn upon him.]]

Wait... wings?  Oh, ha ha, Aang!  Okay, okay, I'm sorry for being jealous and making fun of you and Katara for flying around together on your little air glider thingy going swooooooooosh swooooooooooosh.  Now will you please get over here and take these wi--

[[Sokka looks up and sees a bird perched in a tree overhead.]]

Oh you are so lucky that I don't have Boomerang with me, flying meat.  Otherwise, you would be breakfast.

[[The sound of some bird can be heard over the journal.]]

Huh, it can talk.  [[suddenly screaming]]  IT CAN TALK!  THE DEMON BIRD CAN TALK!  Aaaaaaahhhhhhh--

[[The entry ends abruptly as Sokka accidentally hits the Post button as he closes the book and runs.]]

[[Hmm... It was an elusive dodge, and it might have worked, too, if just a few more things had been normal. She knew his name too. No matter, his detective instincts would figure this out before too awful long.]]

Look, I don't mean to seem ungrateful or anything, but nothing here has made any sense whatsoever. The animals talk, these books talk, someone undressed me and changed my clothes out in the woods, I've never seen this place before, and you know my name, but I don't know your name.

Oh yeah, there are these wing things coming out of my back. That's kind weird.

It's alright if you have secrets and all, but there's definitely something weird going on here.

Oh, I don't deny that something weird is happening here. If you didn't think it was strange, I'd worry you'd hit your head.

But come into the village and Aang-kun and the others can explain to you. I'm sure you'll have a lot of questions for them as well.

[Because he is soooo not giving his name right now. Not until Sokka is settled and has had things explained to him. Otherwise, there is just too much that Okita's knowledge represents for a newly arrived person.]

[Voice]

[theideaguy]

Alright, that sounds fair.

But don't think I won't be back to talk to you at some point.

[Voice]

[ahappylie]

I look forward to it.

[And plan on it. If Sokka doesn't come to see him, Okita will go to meet him.]
