5th: The Contamination of Haruhi Suzumiya
[Voice]
So everyone, Valentines is supposed to be about love and stuff, right? But have you ever thought what's up with that Saint Valentine guy who originated the holiday?! Given that it's still popular today, is he just some famous dead guy, or is he now a ghost, trying to appeal to everyone's mind and manipulate them?! Wouldn't that explain how it's popular in both Japan and the West?
Bearing that in mind, even if this holiday is kinda stupid, it's still important to adhere to certain traditions in hopes of seeing any possible Valentines spirits. Because of that, I've gotten chocolate for some of you.
[...Namely all of the guys in the Brigade and grudgingly Minato. She considered some others, like Neku or Sokka, but decided against it. She also considered Winry but she's not sure if that's too weird or not. That said, delivering them? No, she's carrying them around in her bag in case she runs into people for other reasons and failing that going to put what's left in a basket at the HQ after she's done.]
More importantly-! A bunch of you have heard about the beach, right?! And you're all psyched to go there this summer?! Well, brought to you by our SOS-Brigade's genius scientist, Leon [this next part is muttered quickly and might not be heard:] andsomehelpfromSokka we're bringing you the all-new Beach Teleportation System! You know how the ones for the Hot Springs work, right?! Same thing here! The village-end for the teleporter is located in the barracks, and the other end is way off, so we can have easy access once it warms up!
All in a day's work for the SOS-Brigade!
[First reply is of course for her two boys. Once they're done feel free though.]

It's not just a 'thank you' like they're magic words or something. It's... a matter of respect. In our world, that's a really big deal. The way that you said it was like you were giving the Brigade all the credit and only putting Sokka's name in there as an afterthought so he wouldn't get mad. That's almost worse than not putting his name in at all. That's why it would have to be from you and not just a sign or something - to show that you acknowledge what he did.

[Sigh]
[ action ] Katara is (slightly) less exasperated than this icon makes her appear
I can see your point about why it immortalizing it, and honestly that's normally exactly the kind of thing that Sokka would go for, if it was his idea, and if everyone who'd taken part of it got a sign too. But since it wasn't - just like the way you said his name would have upset him because it was too small, this would upset him because it's too big - it's still not really seeing what he did and appreciating it, it's like placating him.
[Katara is honestly surprised that this conversation has been going as civilly has it has been for as long as it has been, and she's started to cross the line which made her feel uncomfortable about explaining what she knows intrinsically about the way that thing should be, so she is going to look to wrap things up.]
You can do what you want - it's not like I can speak for Sokka completely. But I just thought that you would want to know.

[Dismissive. But despite that, she is actually sincere, whatever it sounds like.]
[ action ]
Still so weird.]
Right. [Well, that's settled then. She hopes. Oh well, she did the best she could. And Katara shrugs a little.]
I hope you have a good holiday!
[Katara is, somehow, still completely ignorant about how not-complicated Haruki and Winry's relationship was... and therefore how it would be now.]
[ action ]
Yeah, you too.
