Case : Doubt in Communication
"Should I tell her?"
"Tell her what?"
"That I had another girlfriend when we're not seeing each other?"
"Which girlfriend?"
"The one that turned into the moon- wait, are you implying that I had more?"
"Well, there's the haiku ladies..."
"They threw me out of the window!"
"Ty Lee..."
"Whenever she touched me, my body parts turned into mush. Romantic much?"
"My sister..."
"You've got to be kidding me."
"I'm pretty serious. You see, Azula loves men who hated her. It gives the love-hate vibe she always dreamed about in a relationship."
"..."
"Sokka, that was sarcasm."
"..."
Zuko sighed. He was just having a perfect alone meditation time, before an overly-worried Sokka dragged him out of concentration and started a babbling monologue about whether he should tell her or no.
It took fifteen minutes for Zuko to realize that 'her' is Suki.
It took another fifteen minutes to break Sokka from his undechipered talking to explain something useful.
And now, after asking him many variations of "Should I tell her? Should I not? Should I?" Zuko decided to humor Sokka a bit, with good old-fashioned sarcasm.
Apparently the water tribe boy didn't take light on the joke of him and Azula being boyfriend-girlfriend.
Five minutes... Ten minutes...
This is a waste of time.
"Sokka."
"Yeah?"
"Tell her."
"But-"
"Tell her."
"What if-"
"Tell her."
"I don't want-"
"Tell. Her."
"I'm not sure-"
"TELL HER!"
Zuko didn't know for sure what caused Sokka to stop complaining, (it might've been his shout or the fact that their campfire blasted menacingly at the dark boy), but he's satisfied.
"I'll tell her."
As he watched the determined back of his new buddy disappear to the temple's darkness, Zuko couldn't help but pat himself in the back.
Diagnosis : All the patient needs is a lot of motivation (and a little bit of intimidation).
