[Do you know what a wind user does in the rain? She kicks up one hell of a localized storm just outside the village. She's no waterbender, but she's seeing if she can concentrate enough on those gusts of wind to send the water in whatever direction she deems necessary.

It's not all that productive -- after all, raindrops aren't the best weapon -- but focusing on her control is always good training.

Besides, she's just happy to play in the rain.

Later, she'll be found wandering the village, soaking wet and not going in any particular direction. She might stop in the bakery for something sweet and she'll be popping into Good Spirits a little later for something bracing to drink.

She'll even address the village at large, via an unfiltered message in the journal:]

I love the rain.

[So sue her. She's actually in a good mood.]

Unless there's too much. And you have to swim for it.

[And then what will you do, missy.]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

[Oh. It's you.]

I'll walk on the water.

[markofthewise]

Just try not to slip. Water's pretty slippery what with it being so wet.

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

I don't slip.

[markofthewise]

Famous last words...

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

I haven't yet.

[markofthewise]

Yet. So you're saying it could happen.

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

I'm saying it's just this side of unlikely.

[markofthewise]

Fine, whatever.

Personally, I'm not a fan of the rain. Not this kind, anyway.

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Uh... What other kind is there? Rain is rain is rain, Sokka. What else could it be?]

[markofthewise]

The kind that stops!

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Then it's not rain.

[markofthewise]

No, it's rain. It's the kind that comes, gets everything nice and moist, and then leaves before people get sick of it.

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

... You have no sense of fun.

[markofthewise]

Hey! I'll have you know I'm very fun!

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

So what do you do for fun?

[markofthewise]

[Um. What are fun things he does? Oh, he's got one! HA!]

Me and Winry have been learning to play hackeysack.

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Oh. That's... very interesting. [How droll can a tone get?]

[markofthewise]

What, you do something more fun? Like what, jumping in mud puddles?

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

It'd be a start. [Temari is a troll, Sokka. Deal with it.]

[markofthewise]

Riiight. Yeah, I'm gonna pass. Puddles stopped being fun when I was six.

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Well, then, you can stay inside and sulk.

[markofthewise]

Uh huh. Maybe I'll do that. Or go make something at the smithy instead. Maybe a sword or something. [Because he -can-.]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Have fun.

[markofthewise]

Yeah yeah. I will.
