4th Wall Event

With all the excitement going on with the penguin races, the spirits came to a conclusion that the citizens and the people they brought to this city just weren't doing their best job to take care of the problem that they were sensing. Maybe they didn't bring the right people, or maybe they just needed more protection. Things seemed far too quiet and it just didn't sit well with them. So, some of the stronger spirits who preferred to watch instead of interact with humans decided to combine their powers together to summon more people from all over the worlds.






Welcome to the Fourth Wall Event of Cyclicality.

The spirits are bringing in all sorts of people for three weeks to try and gain more help and more alliances to help protect Republic City from anything that may wish to harm it. Any characters can come into the game with their powers to try and help out Republic City or just make things even more chaotic for the citizens. Your characters can come in as their original self, or you can AU them into the setting as well.

At the end of the event the new characters that were pulled into Republic City will be sent back to their own homes, unless you wish to app the character you brought in. You will be able to app them and let them keep their memories of the event. That goes for the characters already in the game as well. However, any canon powers will be lost as usual upon apping unless they're a canon bender or apped as AU. An overflow post will be posted around this time next week depending on if there are a lot of people tagging/commenting, so hop to it, everyone!

Some rules to follow:

1. If you’re a player in the game and interested in participating in the event, use the [4th wall] tag. This will let everyone know if you want to participate. You can also tag posts here.

2. If you’re not in the game, you can post a starter post here or tag into someone else’s post who has the [4th wall tag].

3. As always, remember to be friendly! And, if you have any questions, feel free to shoot us a PM.

[Sokka - from some show called Avatar or something]

[The spirits weren't exactly kind to Sokka when yanking him across time. One moment he was high in the air, riding atop of Appa with the company of his favourite friends in the whole wide world; the next minute he was tumbling down towards the heart of Yue Bay, splashing down with quite the dramatic splash. He manages to swim for shore once he manages to surface and grab some air, but otherwise he's entirely soaked and completely drenched.

[And he's also incredibly lost.]


Thanks Appa for not being able to fly in a straight line! Now where in the heck am I? And where did the others go?

[He'll be exploring Republic City here and there, trying to figure out where he is... and generally making snide and sarcastic comments whenever anyone asks why he's completely drenched. At least he's got a little bit of Water Tribe money on him for some delicious meat, even if he gets asked why he's got such old coins on him.]

[ Ty Lee happens to catch sight of an all-too familiar face as he's trying to pay for meat. It looks like he's in a bit of spot and she's more than willing to help him out. Sliding up beside Sokka, she holds out the correct coin to the stall worker. ]

Here, it's on me!
theideaguy: (annoyed)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-19 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
[At least one vendor isn't buying—or rather, isn't SELLING because—his old coins. Those sorts of things aren't accepted in this day and age... or at least buy this guy.]

But then they'd be antiques! Worth even more!

[If only that argument carried weight.] Hey, them's the breaks, guy. We only take yuans here. We wouldn't even take current Water Tribe money if you had—

[And that's when Ty Lee just jumps into the mix, offering to pay for it. He takes the coin and looks it over before happily taking it.]

Now there, see? This is the sort of money you have to be paying with in this town. Now, let's see, two roast duck shish-kabobs. Thanks for paying.

[Sokka is a little bit annoyed by the vendor's rudeness, but whatever. He turns to Ty Lee to thank her.] Thank y—[, he starts before jumping a little bit before finally coming to.] You know, one of these days I'm going to actually remember that you're on our side now.

[ It was lucky she was on their side, at least for Sokka's sake. While she would not have outright attacked him here in Republic City without the orders of Azula, she was highly attracted to him. That's not to say she still didn't think he was cute, but things change in two years and it was clear he only had eyes for Suki.

Ty Lee giggles in response. ]
Of course I'm on your side! Suki would kill me if I tried to do anything to hurt you or your friends! Not that I would want to hurt you-- of course! I like you and your friends in, like, the friendly way!

[ Let's face it, playing babysitter to Zuko wasn't an ideal job. Having members of the Gaang occasionally pop in made the moody Fire Lord much easier to deal with. ]

So, I guess the vines decided to bring you to the city too, huh?
theideaguy: (totally innocent)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-20 08:59 am (UTC)(link)
[And Sokka sort of knew that she had that attraction to him, though he certainly didn't focus on that sort of thing now. It'd be a long time since that odd confession at the Earth Kingdom Palace, and Sokka hasn't had all that many opportunities to see her since, even though he had swung by the Fire Nation every now and again and seen her. But yes, there was Suki. Even if Suki wasn't here at this moment.]

Well I'm glad you like us in the friendly way as opposed to... the non-friendly way! But hey, that's all behind us, right, right?

[It certainly helped knowing that, now that he was stuck in this crazy place. Though he can't help but be a little hesitant when Ty Lee mentions the vines.]

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-20 08:59 am (UTC)(link)
Vines... you mean like all those vine things wrapped around all the buildings in the city? THEY brought me here?!

...

Did I get kidnapped by a spirit again?

[ When it came down to it, Ty Lee much preferred to be friend to the Gaang than henchman to Azula. While most would have thought she followed along blindly, it wasn't entirely the case. Ty Lee knew what she was doing, but she did it because she thought the princess needed her. The dynamic with Zuko was completely different, he needed her and Suki for entirely different reasons and he would never knowingly hurt anyone. She felt the same way about the rest of the group as well.

Something about Sokka's reaction caused Ty Lee to giggle in spite of herself. He made even distress seem comical whether intentional or not. ]


I never thought about it that way, I guess you could say we were kidnapped! [ She was also cheery about the situation considering she was possibly kidnapped as well. ] But it's not so bad here and it's not just us! Aang and Zuko are here too! Though, I must be the only Kyoshi Warrior, I've been here weeks and I haven't seen a single one.

[ Which leads her to her next point. ] Oh, that's right! I should probably tell you we're in the future, that's why the guy wouldn't take your coin and everything looks all different. [ She waves her hands around vaguely at the rather large buildings and the Satomobiles. ]
theideaguy: (weirded out)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-22 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, hold up, hold up. Let's back this little wagon back a few steps.

[Clearly, there is time bending at work.]

You're telling me that we've been kidnapped by strange vines that actually think and kidnap people. And that everyone else is here, the Kyoshi warriors are gone. Oh, AND we're in the future surrounded by really tall buildings and these loud things that go fast?

[Pause.]

This is one of Momo's dreams. Isn't it?
backbends: (40)

[personal profile] backbends 2015-01-22 02:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[ With each point she nods in confirmation. ] Yup, that's about it!

[ She shrugs. ] I don't know, can Momo's dreams go on for months? I've been here for a few now-- Well, a few and then I time traveled again and returned as a Kyoshi Warrior!
theideaguy: (freaking out)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-23 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
How should I know? I mean, have you heard some of the strange things Momo has said?!

[Okay, Sokka, just calm down; breathe. It can't be too hard.]

So... okay, let's just say... hypothetically here, that this is all real, that this is totally expected and that we both actually have to deal with the fact that we're in the future.

What are we even doing here!?
redcladidealist: (Whoa really?)

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-01-21 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Unfortunately for Sokka, that question is such an obvious one to ask.]

Whoa, you look like you just got dumped in a lake. Or... did someone dump a lake on you?

[Because it suddenly occurs to Lloyd that that could be a thing that someone could do. Man, he's still getting used to what all people's bending can do.]
theideaguy: (infuriated)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-22 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
[The most deadpan stare that could ever be stared is stared.]

Lakes just don't fall from the sky! Though I'm sure my sister would like to try that on me some day.

But now, one moment I was flying high on a flying bison, the next moment...

pppffffeeeeeeeeewwwwwwww SPLASH! [He accompanies this with a motion like falling out of the sky and hitting the water.]
redcladidealist: (Wince)

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-01-22 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Couldn't someone try to bend one, though?

[Nope, he doesn't really have a concept for the limits on bending just yet.

He does wince at Sokka's description, though. Falling off a bison into water who knows how far down...]


Ouch. Are you alright? [Because that had to hurt.] Here, let me help dry you off.

[Look at that, he just thought of a new use for airbending! One that doesn't require precision, which means he can totally pull it off! Hope Sokka doesn't mind the good, brisk wind that Lloyd bends with a swish of his hands.]
theideaguy: (rolling eyes)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-23 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
Bend the water from a lake, yes.
Bend the entire lake all at one time? Yeeeeeeah, no.

But... yeah, I mean, other than being dumped into the water and having a nice long bath, I feel great!

[Certainly there's some sarcasm there, though he at least doesn't sound that bad off.

[Though when Lloyd blow dries him, Sokka practically reacts defensively, trying to hold off the air hitting him as if by sheer force. It doesn't work of course, and the water is more or less blown away. A moment latter, his hair poofs out in a flamboyant fashion.]
redcladidealist: (Snicker)

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-01-26 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh. I get it now. So you're saying the lake's too... big...

[He trails off, staring wide-eyed at the effect his wind had on Sokka's hair. Then he bites his lip. Trying not to laugh. He quickly covers his mouth with his hand.

Not gonna laugh. Not gonna laugh.

Sorry, Sokka, he's fighting a losing battle here.]
theideaguy: (in charge)

1/2

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-27 12:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sokka just looks up slightly, as if knowing exactly what's happened. And, almost in a cartoon-like fashion, he pulls another headband from a pocket and attempts to tie his hair back while taming the wild beast that is his hair. The former part is successful; the latter part... is not really.]

It's not funny!

[But there's a sudden pause as thought strikes him.]
redcladidealist: (The biggest grin)

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-01-30 12:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry! I just-!

[Okay, there's no justification he can give, because it is pretty funny to him, and if he keeps going, he's just going to laugh again.

Change of subject it is!]


Yeah! Pretty cool, huh? I'm still trying to figure a lot of it out, but just think! Someday I could make tornadoes with my hands! All I'd have to do is go whoosh!

[He swirls his hands in his best idea for how tornado bending would go - though all he gets for his effort is a tiny dust devil that kicks up.]
theideaguy: (infuriated)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-01-30 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
But—

I mean—

But—

There's only one airbender left in the world! And he's the Avatar!

[What's going on here?!]
redcladidealist: (Oh geeze)

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-01-30 03:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh? What are you talking about? There's way more than one airbender in the world! I mean, maybe there's not a lot- [He... wouldn't exactly know.] -but there's me and Opal and Jinora and Aang, and the ones on the island, too!
theideaguy: (studious)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-02-03 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
[These are random names, names that don't really mean anything to Sokka. But still... it does get him to thinking a little bit...

[Until he gets to Aang.]


Wait, you know Aang?

But...

[The other names...

[And then it clicks.]


What year is this?
redcladidealist: (The biggest grin)

1/2

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-02-03 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I met him here. Me an' Jin used a washtub to row to the island and that's when I ran into him.

[He'll just... leave out the part where he thought Aang was Jinora. Kind of wasn't his most shining moment.]
Edited 2015-02-03 18:31 (UTC)
redcladidealist: (Eh?)

2/2

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-02-03 06:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh... the year? [He opens his mouth, then closes it.] Um... I don't... know? [He's never thought to ask anyone.] Don't you know what year it is?
theideaguy: (freaking out)

[personal profile] theideaguy 2015-02-05 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
... a washtub. You rowed to the island... using a washtub. [Really? Really, Lloyd?] Why? Were they out of unicycles at the dock or something?

[Yeah, he doesn't even know what to think of that.]

Well, I mean, that's kind of important, wouldn't you think? Knowing what today is? I mean, it should be the year 102. Two years after the Hundred Year War. At least that's what I remember. And there should be only one airbender. But you're telling me suddenly that there's an entire flock of them!

[Because flock is the proper collective noun for airbenders.]

So I'm guessing, just maybe, that the other thing might be different too!
redcladidealist: (Bud)

[personal profile] redcladidealist 2015-02-07 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
You can use unicycles to sail?

[Nope, not sarcastic. Just incredibly gullible willing to take someone at their word.]

Uh... [He pauses here, looking awkward and embarrassed, rubbing the back of his neck. It's never fun having to admit you don't know something that everyone should.] Maybe? I guess I wouldn't really know. I'm sort of new here, and I'm pretty bad at history anyway.
