There is a big notice now up on the notce board Nathan provided.

It says:

Martial Arts Training.
All levels welcome. Intermediate and advanced to start at dawn by the bunker. Beginners at 3pm every afternoon. Everyone welcome.

AKA The Black Canary.


In jeans and a T-shirt, for once (the fishnets are only for fighting), Dinah stands back and admires her handiwork.

Yeah, it's good to feel needed.

"Well, I'm cool like that," Sokka says graciously, beaming. He holds the boomerang up for her to see but doesn't offer it quite yet. "I guess it's a signature, like that, but I've been training with this as long as I have a club or a spear."

Sokka arches a brow but doesn't look particularly surprised at what she said.

A little disturbed, but not surprised.

"Something like that," he says. "That's what it was like where I was born."

He attempts a smile and nods, replacing the boomerang in its sling. "No, I understand. Most people seem to know what a South Pole is. It's just-- been a while since someone guessed it like that."

Just by looking at him.



(he's really only half-disturbed - the other half is... kind of flattered.)

Sokka grins at that, glancing at his club. "Well, I don't have a spear with me, and the club's been used for vampires and Magog more than seals the past couple of years... but yeah, basically.

"No idea what Alaska is, though."

"Yeah, I got that part," he notes on Alaska, still grinning. Though it gets a little forced with her questions. "Big furry monsters that lay eggs in your organs when they bite you."

Simplified version = not that much nicer than the detailed version.

A blink and Sokka shakes his head, smiling a little knowingly. "Uh, no - this was before Steph. Where I met Mel. They weren't originally from that world either, it's just where I saw them."

"Karma?" Sokka suggests, but he's grinning a little, teasing. "No, no idea. Though we're considering tying ourselves together with string, just in case it happens again."
