Gone fishing [Open]

It was, all things considered, a pretty good day. Sokka had decided to take the day off and spend the day doing something he loved: fishing. He wasn't sure if there were actually any fish in the river that ran through the city now, but that wasn't really the point. The point was that he had a body of water and a stick with a piece of line that was baited with a worm. He was happy to sit beneath the artificial sun, hat pulled over his eyes and stick held easily in his hands as he idled the day away. True, he could have done this in the Sensoriums but that wouldn't be the same. Real water was just more satisfying. And maybe he'd go for a swim later.

All in all it was shaping up to be a pretty good day.

"Maybe you should dive in and try to find them with echolocation instead," Marco replied, grinning.

"I'd need Toph for that. Except I don't think her talents work underwater. Or maybe a dolphin-turtle." Hell yeah. Dolphin-turtles. So majestic.
livestoannoy: (WTF?!)

"Dolphin-turtle? What kind of whacked up creature is that?" Suddenly, an image of that time when Marco had accidentally ended up combining morphs and turning into things like a lobster-osprey flashed through his mind, and he felt a little bit queasy.

"Uh, the dolphin-turtle isn't whacked up. It's a powerful and majestic creature of the sea!" Marco clearly you know nothing about animals.
livestoannoy: (Dude no way)

[personal profile] livestoannoy 2011-03-16 09:33 am (UTC)(link)
"Dude, there is no way that any combination of dolphin and turtle can be anything but weird." Tell that to Marco's dolphin morph, Sokka. Last time he checked, it didn't have a shell.

"If by weird you mean normal. Are you from one of those places where they only have like, singular types of animals?" Sokka is kind of used to this by now. Also dolphin-turtles have shells.
livestoannoy: (Sorry?)

"What, everything in your world is some kind of bizarre animal combo?" Marco said, feeling queasy again. An entire world full of osprey-lobsters and gorilla-trouts and poodle-polar-bears?

"Well, not everything. I mean, there are just, you know, the flying lemurs or flying bison. And the Earth King had a regular old bear. Which was still kind of strange." Sokka replied.
livestoannoy: (Ax they're everyone's minutes)

[personal profile] livestoannoy 2011-03-16 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
"Right," Marco said, eying Sokka suspiciously. "But if wacked combinations are normal in your world, how the hell do you even know that a regular bear is a regular bear?"

[identity profile] theregularguy.livejournal.com 2011-03-16 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well, it wasn't a platypus-bear." Duh, Marco. Duh.
livestoannoy: (Are you insane?!)

[personal profile] livestoannoy 2011-03-16 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"Platypus-bear? Platypus-bear?! Dude, platypuses are bizarre enough without...okay, that's it. Your world is insane. Insane."

[identity profile] theregularguy.livejournal.com 2011-03-16 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"It is not! Our animals are fine. I didn't even tell you about the Moose-Lions. Or the unagi. Or the hawks." He kind of misses Hawky, to be honest. Best hawk ever.

"Besides, who'd want to live in a world without platypus-bears? Or penguins?"
livestoannoy: (Do you have a plan that's ISN'T insane?)

[personal profile] livestoannoy 2011-03-17 10:28 am (UTC)(link)
"I'll vote for living in a world without platypus bears, thanks," Marco said dryly. "But dude, hawks and penguins aren't combinations of anything. They're just hawks and penguins." Which means at least some things in Sokka's world were normal, thank god.

[identity profile] theregularguy.livejournal.com 2011-03-18 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
"Oh. So you guys have some animals that aren't weird. That's good to know." Sokka still thinks platypus-bears are awesome.

"What's your name, anyhow? I'm Sokka."
livestoannoy: (Ax they're everyone's minutes)

[personal profile] livestoannoy 2011-03-18 11:47 am (UTC)(link)
"Dude, I'm pretty sure your world is the one that's weird," Marco pointed out. And considering that Marco's world had seven foot tall walking salad shooters and parasitic brain slugs? That was saying something.

"Marco. And I'm hoping your name doesn't mean you like to go around punching people in the face. The girls dig this face man, and it'd suck if you messed it up."

[identity profile] theregularguy.livejournal.com 2011-03-18 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Sokka snickered.

"Sokka -- sock. That's a good one. But nah. I don't do the whole random punching thing." A pause.

"And my world isn't weird. It's home."
livestoannoy: (Smirk)

[personal profile] livestoannoy 2011-03-19 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
"What can I say? I'm just that good," Marco said, smirking smugly. "And sorry to break it to you man, but your home's nuttier than a bag of peanuts."
