Gym: Flag Football Practice, Sunday Noon

[missed-the-gate.livejournal.com]

At noon, John went down to the gym to set up flags, footballs, and cones for practice. He figured the students who didn't have family in town would be there and those who did have family would welcome the distraction.

Since last week Willow focused on touchdown dances, John decided this week they'd practice some things to help them actually score touchdowns. Meaning they'd run plays.

Sokka bowed formally again. "Yes, sir. It's traditional to celebrate once you get a touchdown. And I do that a lot."

"Splendid! Always good to win! Should I bet on you, if I find a bookmaker around here?" Jonathan asked hopefully. "Even if you aren't on the same team as my sister," he added, sending Evie a mischievous glance.

Evie rolled her eyes and whapped Jonathan on the shoulder, lightly. "No. More. Gambling. This. Weekend." She smiled at him despite that. "Sokka and I have been, um. Keeping company, since April."

"Oh reeeeeally." An opportunity to get a little revenge was too good to pass up. Jonathan attempted to look more stern, folding his arms like Sokka and said, "So? What are your intentions toward my sister? If you have any intentions."

Evie put a hand to her face and meep'd.

Sokka jumped. "Not like that! Nothing like that!" He stared turning bright red. "We're just friends! Good friends! Very good friends! ...But not like that!"

"I see." Jonathan bit his lip to keep from laughing. "Well, why not? She's a lovely girl! Should be married by now! How old are you, anyway?"

"Jonathan," Evie said in a warning tone. "Stop it. This instant. You don't have to answer that, Sokka, not in the least."

"I'm too young to--!"

Sokka composed himself and bowed again.

"It's still a bit early to be thinking about marriage, sir," he answered. "But I assure you, my intentions are entirely honorable."

"Brilliant," Jonathan said, and just for that second he entirely meant it, and it might have showed. No one messed with his baby sister. He'd find a way to sell them to camel drivers if they did. Then he broke into a wide smile. "And yes, entirely too early. So where are you from, Sokka of the Water Tribe? Is there a Whiskey Tribe? I'd like to join that."

Re: Audience [10/21]

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

"I'm from the South Pole," he answered. "Not yours, a different one."

And he grinned at Jonathan. ...with Jonathan? at Jonathan? "If there were a Whiskey Tribe, I'm sure they'd be proud to have you as a member, sir."

Re: Audience [10/21]

Evie took a breath of relief, giving Sokka wide smile of gratitude, and Jonathan a more indulgent one. "Right. Yes, Jonathan's already passed any initiations they might set him, I think."

"Excellent point!" Jonathan clapped his hands, and grinned at both of them. Not a bad chap, this Sokka. Much better than some berks Evie could have taken on. "I heard there's a pastry shop here, somewhere? Jeff, God of Biscuits? I don't get much of the sort in Jerusalem, would you two care to show me to the sugar?"
