Wellspring Arms & Meditation Center, Monday

For the first time since he'd arrived on the island, Cable was... distracted... from the mess building up at home. There was something worrying about the previous day's encounter. Not enough to keep him from slapping the Open sign on the door and settling in for the day.

But enough to unsettle his mind.

With this in mind, he was a little more serious (if that was possible) today, quietly working through forms and books on his desk.

He's here as always.

Mod away or bug Cable about it.

I hate my new class schedule.

...

Plaguetastic.

Of course he was there.

Probably plotting something too.

"You still have my DVDs," Wade said, hopping up to sit on the counter.

Nate glanced up from the desk, keeping his pen firmly between metal fingers. "To your left," he said.

Oh, look. A DVD box, sitting atop a case of slightly oversized weaponry just to Wade's left.

Some things were mildly easy to predict, after all.

Wade sighed, leaning back to rest his weight on his hands. "No, no, no. That's your cue to look all avoidy because you are halfway through the season and want to watch more."

"'Avoidy' isn't a priority right now." It would've sounded like a vague statement coming from anyone else.

It still was a vague statement. It just didn't much sound like one. Especially not considering the expression on his face.

Was that Stoic #34? Wade was pretty sure it was.

"You are no fun at all. You could at least pretend to enjoy it."

"I told you it would do," Nate offered. Then segued ever so smoothly into, "I don't suppose you've met anyone spouting cryptic portents of doom about the island recently?"

"Other than you?"

Nate shot him a look. "I haven't said anything about the island."

"Yet," Wade replied, chin raised as he gave a look right back. "But, nah. I haven't heard any particular doom recently."

"I met someone yesterday who seemed quite concerned." He finally did drop his pen, leaning back incrimentally. The chair creaked a little under his shifting weight. "But no specifics."

"I thought you spoke cryptic-ese," Wade said, spinning to face him and sit Indian style on the desk.

"It's only a third language," Nate deadpanned.

Wade rolled his eyes. "I'll ask around for strange feelings, okay?"

"I'm hoping we'll get something a little clearer than that." Still with the deadpanning.

"Ooo! We could try a Ouija board! And then we can talk about boys and watch scaaaary movies!"

"I thought the models were frightening enough."

Wade scoffed. "You love Elyse, don't lie."

"She has a long way to go."

He obviously hadn't watched the last episodes. Or really any of it, after Wade left that evening. Busy, you know.

Wade shook his head. "Now I have to make you watch more of it."

Ah, look, it was the mildly amused-slash-challenging-slash-annoyed stoic face. You had to appreciate the subtleties in life. "You're not going to make me watch anything."

Because it was totally that easy.

This was a shop Sokka hadn't seen before. So he wandered in.

...And suddenly, it was Christmas. Not that Sokka knew what Christmas was, but there was that same look of gleeful delight in the eyes of this child. The only way he could POSSIBLY be happier would be if he walked into Wonka's.

"You sell GUNS here?!?!?!" he asked excitedly.

Cable glanced up from his paperwork again. Trust the people to come in while he was actually occupied with something. "Yes," he returned, roughly as calm as Sokka was excited.

Which, by the looks of it, was very.
