Wang Fire - [Action]

[Today is a special day. The plaza, though still with a good amount of snow on the ground, is one of those places in the village where enough shoveling and foot traffic has removed most of the snow. Therefor somebody who was absolutely not Sokka saw an opportunity. By noon, a small one-person booth had been set up in front of the fountain. A sign

[It's been three days since Derek's been here now, and he's pretty sure he's all right, so he'd finally decided to go shopping and actually get some, you know, supplies and things for the apartment.

Of course, the whole booth set up catches his attention when he passes it, and he stops, looking over at it with an amused and somewhat curious smile]

'Advice', huh?

[markofthewise]

That's right, sir! Have a seat! What can I do for you?

[derek_bliss]

[He cocks his head sideways for a moment and then decides to sit, settling the bag of groceries gently to the stones next to his boots. He seems to give serious thought to his question before answering]

Not sure, to be honest. What's your specialty?

[markofthewise]

Advice!

Any advice. Is there a woman who doesn't notice you? Strange dreams? A strange villain who wants to steal your Chi and you don't know how to tell them "No"? Or perhaps you simply don't know what to eat for dinner. Any advice is good advice here!

[... there's no way Sanji can not stare]

Finally hit puberty, huh?

[markofthewise]

Hm? I've no idea what you mean. Have a seat, young man. What seems to be your problem?

[oda_hates_me]

[he's feeling gracious today, so he'll play along]

Problem? [hmmm, a problem... oh, he's got one.]

You see, there's this friend of mine who likes meat. Too much. I can barely get him to look at a shitty vegetable, and he doesn't get the body needs the green shit as much as it needs protein.

[markofthewise]

Have you tried explaining to him that vegetables are very important for growing young men? Why, this beard would be nothing but stubble were it not for all the vegetables I ate as a boy!

[markofthewise]

That's right! Have a seat and tell me your worries.

[markofthewise]

All the problems of the mind, my fine friend. Worries, doubts, stress, and love. Not headaches though, because the clinic is just yonder.

[Today is "go on a random walk to wherever" day for Yuri, so when he passes by the fountain area ... well, it's a little tough to not notice when something new shows up.

At the moment though, he's just going to stare. Is that some kid wearing a fake beard or something?]

[markofthewise]

[Not just any beard, but one fine mustache as well!]

Hello there, my boy! Have a seat, tell Mr. Fire all your problems.

[once_knighted]

All of them? ... I think I'll pass, in that case. I don't have that kind of time.

[markofthewise]

Then how about just one problem. This is Luceti, my boy. You have all the time in the world!

[monocled]

[ Hakkai runs across a... person in a beard? Alright. ]

...Good afternoon.

[markofthewise]

Good afternoon yourself, young man! Have a seat, tell me your problems!

[monocled]

[ The green eyed, monocle-wearing man doesn't even try to contain his grin of amusement as he sits. ]

Well, I suppose I'll get the obvious out of the way. Do you have any advice on how to get out of here?

[markofthewise]

Why that's an easy one. You simply wait. Or... [Conspiratorial whisper] Do nothing and be very boring.
