[It's about five in the morning.

And she woke up, alarmed, surprised, wondering what happened. And other stuff like that. Really, there's a lot of shock, a lot of awe, and more than a little alarm. She decided she needed to get up, sneak out... and then go from there. This is only redoubled when she looks in the mirror and hears some of the other people in the house and doesn't recognize all of the decor...

Actually, she'll look back later in the day and probably marvel at how rational she is able to be right now. Blame Luceti.

She only bothers to throw on a shirt and ... something. Okay, basic cover up, maybe she looks mis-matched but. Bigger priorities. Yes. She needs to get to House 10 to see if this is really what she thinks it is. But- oh dammit the door's locked. Maybe if she knocks harder on the window of her bedroom]

[Usually Sokka is the first one to wake up in the house. He has Okita Souji to blame for that. When he wakes up to the sound of banging outside, he opens his eyes blearily and silently wished for it to go away. When it doesn't seem to go away, he throws the blanket off and starts to climb out of bed. He finds it only mildly odd that it seemed like the floor was a little further away from the bed than usual, but whatever.

He stands up and walks to the window, scratching his bottom, and then being startled to realize that his curtains are not that color. He takes a wild look around the room and quickly realizes this isn't his room either. What the hell, did the Malnosso move him into someone else's room!?

And then the knocking continues. Why is something bothering him now!? He finally steps forward, opens the curtains, and looks out the window to see himself outside it. And then he fell over in shock.]

[...

Did he just faint? Oh he did not just faint when she's stuck on this side of the window]

[wisebent]

[No, he did not faint. He's sitting on the ground staring in shock at the window. Did he always look so dumb when he was gawking?

Okay, this is Luceti, this isn't the weirdest thing to happen to him before. Maybe. Either way, he stands up again, creeps up to the window, and unlocks it. He pulls it up (noticing that it's heavier than his window at home) and looks at his... clone.]

Okay you better- [And then he chokes. Was that HIS voice!?]

End of Day 1

[wisebent]

[After getting through their respective dinners, the two go to their pre-arranged meeting point - the school playground. Given it's late, it's abandoned and tucked away behind the school. Sokka gets there first and ends up sitting at the end of the slide, looking a little worse for wear (dinner was hard) and about as frustrated as he can get. After only one day he was on the verge of calling the whole thing quits.]

[Haruhi ends up later. In a fuller house who cares more about if "he" comes or goes, she had to delay a bit until she got out. So ... looking very tired indeed she does show up, looking around for her own body. When she spots it, she walks on over]

Hey.

[wisebent]

[When his body finally shows up, he has that strange feeling of 'out of body experience' which is natural, given he is out of his body. It's odd watching it move like that and not be a reflection.]

Okay, your plan? It sucks. I can't do it.

[markofthegod]

Well what's the alternative, being brain-panned?

[Flatly. She sighs, leaning up against the pale for the swings]

[markofthegod]

[And later in the week there's another meeting. They've been having other ones before now, of course, but this one is after their respective dates on Sunday and Monday, so it's extra important and such. Into the Brigade room as before]

[wisebent]

[Sokka is sitting in the chief's chair now. He's kind of got used to that. He's also got his feet up on the table and eating jerky.]

Hey Haruhi.

[markofthegod]

[...Again with the jerky]

Hi Sokka.

[wisebent]

So, you figured out how to swap us yet? [The same thing he asks every time they meet.]
