Dai Gui Sample:
Here's a sample of what a day in the life of Dai Gui is in my mind.
I only own my character(s) and idea(s), not the series.
Sample-
"So what do ya say?" Dai Gui asked in his most charming tone while leaning against some steal he was supposed to be installing. "Join me on my lunch break today. I get off in about an hour."
"Haha, Dai you really are too much sometimes." Naomi said with a giggle. She fiddled with some stray hairs in his face before continuing. "Unfortunately, I'm meeting my aunt and sister today for some shopping. Though I wouldn't put it past you, I don't think you want to feed a bunch of chatty girls over your break." She finished with a light smile.
"Oh I don't know about that." He said playfully stroking his chin hairs. "Three women as pretty as you sounds like the perfect way to spend a break from all these sweaty guys." He said playfully poking his thumb at his foreman. Naomi laughed out a sigh and rolled her eyes.
"You're such a player." She teased.
"Hey, I resent that remark." He feigned sadness. "Now I'm really hurt." He flashed a smirk.
"Aww poor baby. How can I make it all better?" She asked enticingly. She bent toward him slightly, showing a bit more of her cleavage.
"It's your call babe. After all I'm so distraught." He said with a wink. She couldn't resist a giggle before tapping her chin in thought.
"Know any good places for tea? I've been craving some lately but it's so hard to find a really good place in this city." She said placing her hands on her hips.
"Actually I know the perfect place. Meet me at the fountain in the Village Square tonight, and I'll treat you to the best tea in Republic City. He said with a light smile. She batted her eyes and huffed at him a little.
"Alright Dai, I'll take you up on that offer." She said with one last giggle. "See you at 8, and it better be good." She poked his chest before walking off. She waved bye while looking back at him and he responded by puckering his lips and sending her a smooch.
"Geez Dai, do you have to be such a weirdo?" A small voice asked from behind him. He didn't even turn around at the familiar voice.
"You're one to talk Half Pint." He said playfully before using Earth Bending to anchor his the steal and raising a wall around the beams. As soon as the wall was up, he had to brace himself because the young girl leapt onto his shoulders.
"Ahhh! What was that for?!" He shouted looking up at her pouting face.
"That's what you get for calling me weird." She said with her arms folded. "But check this out!" She said excitedly. She hopped down and took her Earth Bending stance. She stuck both hands out and raised a large chunk of rock. She then started pressing her hands closer and closer together forming and shaping the stone into the shape of a small Fu Dog; about three and a half feet tall.
"Hey, good work Kid! This ones bigger than the last one." He said walking over to examine the sculpture. "Nice attention to detail too." He said proudly folding his arms.
"How about this?!" She boasted proudly as she continued her bending. She started making the sculpture move around in a small circle. Its movements looked really blocky, but it was she was definitely improving.
"You're getting better, but you have to remember the legs aren't just straight blocks and the body is supposed to flex with the motions to make it look more natural…" He was cut off when she launched the stone figure at his back tackling him to the ground.
"Looks like I've got the jumping part down packed." She said smugly folding her arms.
"HAHAHA! Serves you right Dai Gui!" A rather large and round man pointed and laughed at Dai Gui's discomfort. "Knock some sense into this guy Half Pint…AHH!" Before he could say another word, the young girl sent a flurry of smaller Fu statues to pummel the pudgy man.
"The name's Sora FAT BOY!" She said angrily. Dai Gui stood beside her and placed a hand on her head.
"Here, let me show you how it's done." He said with an irritated twitch in his eye. He took a quick stance and snapped his hands out. Soon the fat man was running around the job site being chased by about a dozen small Fu Dogs, biting at his cloths and backside. That's when the foreman came out.
"Dai Gui! What did I tell you about bringing your kid to the job?!" he shouted out, frustrated.
"I didn't bring her, she just showed up. What does it matter? My sections done!" He called back spitting off to the side.
"Then go take your lunch break and quit causing trouble around here. And call your dogs off Quan son he can get back to work!" He said with a huff. Sora giggled as he took a stance and lowered the statues back into the earth. "Now get out of here and take the kid with you!"
"Yea, yea. Come on Half Pint, I'll take you to lunch." He said walking out of the construction zone.
"Dai, wait! I wunna ride Shishi." She asked running up to his side.
"Your favorite noodle shop is right around the corner though…" He said pointing a finger and cocking an eyebrow.
"But I want dumplings." She said sweetly pressing herself against his side. He just looked at her sarcastically for a few moments while she batted her big hazel eyes before he let out a sigh.
"Fine." He said with a smirk. He took a stance and raised a large Fu Dog right under her. He raised a second one for himself to ride and sunk his legs into the stone beast, but kept his hands free so he could control both statues at the same time. "Better hold on Half Pint. The dumpling shop is across town, and the street's gunna be packed right about now. He said with a smirk.
"Do your worst!" She challenged sinking her own feet and hands into her mount. Wit that, Dai Gui used his bending send them racing down the street in a burst of rubble.
