002 ☾ in which he thinks he's a water bender

[watertribe]

[ACTION A:]

[At school, bored. He's only really interested in the science and history classes so he's taken to doodling all over the papers given to him during his other classes. Mind you, the doodles are atrocious but he thinks they're complete works of art! He may just be shoving them down your nose with a proud grin.]

[ACTION B:]

[Sokka's

Comments

[ action: C ]

[electrowhipit]

[ KERSPLASH. A water balloon breaks on the windshield of a blue sedan, parked harmlessly on the side of the street.

The windshield wipers kick on and the car somehow makes an indignant noise ] Do you mind?

[ action: C ]

[watertribe]

[WELP. That one totally missed his target, so he just ducks and goes to picking up another balloon which ends up... being dropped at the sound of a voice as he spins around looking everywhere but at the sedan.]

Who said that?!

[ action ]

[electrowhipit]

[ He flashes his headlights at Sokka ] Right here, genius.

[ action ] 1/4

[watertribe]

[Wait. What--

This is one of those "car" things, right?

It's a machine.]

[ action ]

[watertribe]

Wait a minute!

[Tripping over a box of water balloons and making his way to try and push his face against the glass plate of the car-- of course, he stops feet away and stares, gapingly.]

[ action ]

[watertribe]

Y-You can't be--!

[Sputtering forever.]

[ action ] 4/4 I'M SORRY ;A;

[watertribe]

[And finally in a resolute, albeit panicked, shout he says:]

MACHINES DON'T TALK!

[ action ] Don't be. That was beautiful.

[electrowhipit]

Shows what you know.

[ action ] Oh yay. I'm glad you think so.

[watertribe]

I KNOW PLENTY! AND I DEFINITELY KNOW MACHINES CAN'T TALK. ESPECIALLY THESE CAR THINGS!

[ action ] Now I'M sorry.

[electrowhipit]

[ There's a beat of silence, and then the car changes. Panels slide, plating shifts, and there suddenly, standing to his full 25 feet of height, is a giant robot.

He looms for a moment, then crouches, optics narrowed at Sokka ] You were saying?
