[ Poppet came by just to see what all the fuss is about, and now she is STARING at some of the birds. Just. Staring. wtf are they doin'. Sipping juice from a goblet while she watches, too. Because hey, free juice. That can't go wrong at all, can it? ]

Everything's kind of strange, lately...

[markofthewise]

[Sokka has already been into the stuff. So naturally he has no problem draping an arm around this girl he's never met and giving her a goofy grin.] Strange in a good way!

[poppetry]

[ totally doesn't mind being draped on by a stranger she's never met! in fact, she'll lean into it a little and smile right back at him. ]

Yeah! It sounds like everyone's been happy. I don't know what's going on, but I think I like it!

[markofthewise]

It's this STUFF! [Sokka holds up a goblet of juice.] I think it makes people act weird!

[poppetry]

[ :o. looks at the goblet in her hands, headtilting ]

Raven told me it wouldn't have any effect on kids... weird how? [ oblivious. totally, utterly oblivious, yes. ]

[markofthewise]

I dunno, but whatever it is, it doesn't seem to be working on me. [Oh but wait...] Saaaay... what's your name?

[poppetry]

Me neither. At least, I don't feel like I'm doing anything weird. [ looks back up at him and beams, shifting to get a little closer ]

Xion! What's yours?

[markofthewise]

[Yup, this is perfectly natural behavior. Nothing unusual at all.] I'm Sokka. It's nice to meet you, Xion. [Leaning in closer now.] Say... you're really pretty. And I'm not just saying that. Really, really pretty.

[poppetry]

[ blinks. still oblivious over here, but she smiles, a little flattered ] I've never had anyone tell me that before. Thanks, Sokka. It's nice to meet you too.

[markofthewise]

What? Really? Well it's true!

[poppetry]

[ giggles a little, very pleased, leaning her head against his shoulder ]

Hehe, I'll have to take your word for it. You sound surprised!

[markofthewise]

[Well this is just so nice. Here in the plaza with whatshername, drinking grape juice. He plants a peck on her forehead as he tries to guide them to somewhere to sit.] I should be surprised. Are you sure nobody's said that before?

[poppetry]

[ w-w-w-wait.

waidsfalkj what did he just ... did he just ... he DID just. Finally warning bells are breaking through all that lovely juice, and though she walks with him, she pulls away a bit. ]

Positive. I'm pretty sure I'd remember if someone told me that. Also, Sokka, I, um ... just in case, I should say... um, there's -- there's someone I...

[ fidget fidget. blushing, too. ]

[markofthewise]

[Sokka just takes another drink, a completely oblivious look on his face. Isn't that what friends do?] Something wrong?

[poppetry]

[ why do you make this so hard, Sokka. she blushes harder, uncertain all of a sudden. ]

No, it's just ... there's someone I -- really like. Just in case that ... wasn't clear, I guess.

[ ... fidget. after all, it was explained to her that kiss = dating = couple = LOVE so. yeah, NOT SURE WHAT TO THINK HERE. ]

[markofthewise]

So? It's not like you're my girlfriend or anything. What's a little kiss between friends? [INFALLIBLE LOGIC.]
