Space: That Other Frontier

[markofthewise]

Fine. Going to space does sound cool. But it doesn't make up for losing Suki. Besides, it's not like I'm going there for sightseeing. And these space suits don't sound very flattering either. Did you forget about the thousands of crazy people who will want to kill me?

[And he'll be on the Moon. Do you know how weird that is? What if he damages Yue's face!]

At least it's something to do before all those people from the future show up.

I know. But it's too late for that.

Sokka... [It really hurt to see him like this.] I wish there was something more I can do, but all I can say is that you'll make it through this. You always make it through. But, you already know that.

[markofthewise]

I know. [He's lost so much already. He knows he can pull through.] It's... it's just hard.

[ex_tessen852]

I know. I really do...

[She kinda just wants to give him a hug, but that might be awkward.]

[markofthewise]

Did you lose someone?

[ex_tessen852]

[UGH! She didn't want to admit this...]

Yeah, but that was a long time ago.

[markofthewise]

Did he come back?

[ex_tessen852]

[...]

No.

[markofthewise]

I'm sorry.

[He doesn't expect she'll come back either.]

[ex_tessen852]

It's fine. I wouldn't want to watch him put through the experiments anyway.

Besides, I made it through the hard times thanks to my friends, and I know you will do the same.

[markofthewise]

Yeah. I know. [It just doesn't feel like that yet.]
