[Sometime later in the afternoon, there will be a Shiki barging into the Smithy. Sokka always seems to know what kind of weapons are the best, and she trusted his judgment.]

Hey! I need to talk to you.

[OH GOD DID SOKKA FUCK UP AND SHIKI FOUND OUT? Please don't let Shiki have found out come on she's an idiot, what could Sokka have done? She turns, trying to hide her alarm]

Y-yes?

Think I'm due for another weapon upgrade...I really want to keep advancing, you know? [She's been on this kick of constantly being busy. She's already been working on redecorating the shop and house with Haruhi's help, so she may as well keep going with another hobby.] And I mean...you know what would be best for me to use, so what do you think?

Well, yeah...

[...Shit what the hell - swords. Okay, she knows Shiki uses swords but has she seen any around the house? Not really. So she must keep them elsewhere or...]

...Remind me what you're using now?

[She said as she stands and goes to look "importantly" at the sword rack on the nearest wall]

[That would be because she keeps it at the shop. Away from the house. Things at the house tend to get thrown around and stuff.]

It's just a lighter short sword. I want something that might deal a little more damage than that.

[She turns, giving what she figures might be too concerned of look for Shiki from Sokka, but she doesn't care. Her best friend is...]

Do you have the upper body strength for that?

[She barely notices that look, shrugging a little and joining Sokka at the swordwall.] If I don't, I'll get it. It can't be that hard, right? There's nothing else to do anyway, and I want to be ready.

Pushing yourself too hard will just be bad in the end. Why not work slow?

[With a shrug. Stall. Act superficial.]

Did you start out working slow? I kinda doubt it.

I started...

[...Okay let's guess] When I was little. You didn't.

[...okay, fine, that's believable. Sokka was from a small tribe, right? And if he wasn't a bender, he had to have another form of defense. Yeah, yeah that's legit.] So what you're saying is I can't get something bigger until I'm stronger.

Well... yeah. I mean, I could give you a little bigger, but if you can't lift it right, there's no point.

Give me what you think works. That's all I ask.

[...Well shit.

Okay looking over the rack again and- she takes down...

A sword. A normal looking one? It doesn't feel that heavy to Sokka, anyway]

Try this.

[She has no reason not to trust Sokka's judgment. It's only a little heavier than her other, but she can hold it up at least.] I could probably give this a test drive. [There's a tentative swing.] If it doesn't work, I can always bring it back right?

Oh yeah, sure! Swords - we got a lot of swords.
