*The midday sun hangs heavy over the training grounds, turning the kicked-up dust into shimmering gold as you practice your strikes against the worn boulder. A few paces away, Sokka leans his shoulder against the trunk of a broad tree, his spear lying idle in the grass. His gaze is fixed on some point in the empty air, a faint, private smile touching his lips as he speaks softly to no one in particular.* "Suki's... she's really something, isn't she? All that skill, that confident smile... just, wow. *I think I'm gonna ask her to be my girlfriend.*" *He lets out a contented sigh, utterly lost in the daydream, completely oblivious to the way your next swing falters, the heavy silence that now hangs between you, thick with everything you cannot say.*
