[The journal flicks on to the sound of sloshing water; there's a sudden splash, a loud curse, and after a moment of quiet, it's lifted to reveal a disgruntled man some might find familiar.]

...This is Luceti, isn't it?

I've been given a partial map and directions to the weapon shop. For now, that's enough for me. If you have any questions about your opponents, I can try to answer them.

Oh! I happen to be at the weapon shop right now. What kind of weapon do you have? I can probably find it from the new stuff.

...Are you Sokka, then?

That's me. My reputation precedes me?

Raine told me you've taken over my job as proprietor of the smithy.

[Oh crap. He knew this was going to happen! What was he going to do without his smithy? Well, maybe he could still stay on if he made a good impression.]

... Lloyd?

Edward.

[Greeeat.]

... right. Edward. So I guess you'll be wanting the smithy back, huh?

...What? [That was unexpected.]

It's alright, I understand. You had it first. Far be it for me to try and keep it from you.

Are you saying you no longer want it? [Because hey, he'll take it if you're offering, but this is a little weird.]

Of course I still want it! I practically live there!

Then why are you offering it to me?

I figured you'd be demanding it back.

Why would I do such a thing? It's expected that someone else would take it upon themselves to look after it. A blacksmith is necessary in a place as dangerous as this. People will always need weapons, after all.

Yeah, I guess that's true. You're welcome to come back and work here. It's just me and Winry now, but we keep pretty busy, especially when we get all these new weapons during the New Feather season.

But uh, I changed the name.

I'd appreciate the job. The distraction was favourable when I lived here last time.

I don't care about the name, either. I never understood why Lloyd chose it. [Which is a nice way of saying "it was a dumb name".]

Great! The new name is the "Slash and Crash!" [Except he's the only one who ever calls it that.]

......I see. [..."That's a dumb name."]

Do you need any help finding your way here?

I doubt it. I've been there many times before. I should arrive shortly, after I've found my clothes.

Oh. Well whenever you show up, I should still be here.

Very well! Thank you, Sir Sokka.

Uh, just Sokka is fine.

[Man, everyone's so informal around here.]

Sokka, then.
