Hoo, Luceti. You one and only [...sorry Azusa. This actually hurts way less than she thought it would, which makes her smile even broader.] warrens gal here.

[She's sitting atop a building in the setting sun. The journal is aimed at her side as he's sitting here on the ledge. In her hand she is spinning a tooth - the one she's holding is somewhat smaller than her forearm, so about the size of a typical dagger.]

In a bit've a broil. Got this tooth, and fig I oughta do something with it. Got some who told me to give it to meds, but don't wanna nuke it. Got any other thinks? Poss I won't get a thing, but might as well put 'em on the Grid.

[...Hah]

...Glad I got to go home. [A little contented sigh. She didn't get to stay, but even a day now that she can remember it makes all the difference in the world.]

[jewitch]

W-well, kind of. There were...already people there, but. ...[Well that could be awkward, shall she change the subject??]

Anyway, have you thought of anything else? For your tooth?

[makeitquick]

-So you met 'em. [It'd be pointless to ask if she's okay, of course she is] Jesu, wish I did.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

What I mean's home's real important to me. I was glad to go.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

A-yup. Pretty good one too, I think. Least, not still poisoned for it.

[herotypical]

Here and home. Mel? Just a friendly warning -- be careful of this one's eyes. Try not to get too...contacty. With them. Don't want to see you go the way of the hypnotized.

Voice

[makeitquick]

Alright, solid - I'ma gonna bring it over then. You there today, boss?

[makeitquick]

Hypnotized.. that's the brain take over thing, right? [Like from the scifiscopes? Okay, nod] Alright, got it. I was ringing you to day I've got forty points now, going to get another twenty soon. They want us to pay for something to deal with her, I've got it covered.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

Could put it on the end of an ax, make a second scythe, but it's not wood. Kinda thinking it might be worth a go though.

[voice]

[makeitquick]

That mean you're worldwide to match?

Voice

[markofthewise]

[Boss, huh... fancy.]

Like always.

Voice

[makeitquick]

[SWEET. Well then, closing the book and she'll be right over, now even supporting an idea.]

[herotypical]

I've thrown my name in the hat again. We'll see what comes of it.

[makeitquick]

Here's hoping, right?

[herotypical]

...We'll keep each other posted.

[Voice]

[whydidisaverick]

Well I suppose you can never know too many healers right?

Just... try to be careful? I guess you could keep it as a sort of trophy. If you're even into that sort of thing.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

Sort of into it, but more into something practical. Healers though... see what you're saying, Bruce.

[makeitquick]

A-yup.


You doing okay after you trip, Summers?

Voice

[markofthewise]

[And Sokka will be there! Waiting! On the couch.]

Voice

[makeitquick]

[Melaka arrived! In all of her several piercings and light clothing glory! And she goes to stab her tooth into the counter.

...Making a small hole in it, oops]

Voice

[markofthewise]

[Sokka stands. Looks at his counter. And his jaw drops.]

... what was that for!?

[makeitquick]

Waking you up! [She'll just leave it embedded. Not that Sokka was. Sleeping] The way we would in the warrens.

[markofthewise]

Well this isn't the warrens! And I made this counter! It won't just repair itself.

[He. Pulls out the tooth. Which is harder than it looks. He gives it a tug and it doesn't budge. Stares at Melaka and not wanting to lose any manly points, tugs on it again. Okay, so it's not coming out. That's cool.]

[makeitquick]

...Having trouble?

[She tries. To hide. the amusement in her voice.]

[markofthewise]

Yes. Someone wrecked my counter. [He just stops trying okay. And leans on the counter instead.] I take it this is the tooth?

[makeitquick]

That's right--

[And she goes to tug at the tooth. Almost effortlessly, she pulls it out before setting it on its side on the counter]
