We’re on Sokka Feelings Lockdown tonight buds

Korra Antis: I hate Korra! Shes the worst avatar, she destroyed the conection to the past Avatars!

The Korra in question:

something that’s easy to overlook about the timeline of “sokka’s master” is that sokka only trains with piandao over the course of two days. and the second day is devoted entirely to crafting his space sword. piandao tells sokka that he is “worthier than any man [he’s] ever trained” after just one day of knowing him. and the gaang are beside themselves missing sokka after less than a day of him being gone. this episode demonstrates sokka’s value, both on his own merit and as a member of the group, but the fact that he accomplished so much and was so deeply missed after only ~18 hours is especially telling.

thinking abt how the reason yue liked sokka was because he was an awkward nerd who didn’t actually think he had a shot with her, as opposed to the obtuse surfer dudes vying for her attention (and the consequent position of power being her husband puts them in). sokka called hahn “soulless” when he talked about the “perks” of being with yue, because he, unlike the bros of the nwt, saw past her status—he liked spending time with her and making her laugh. yue is immediately endeared to sokka because he’s so clearly awkward and inexperienced and earnest, which proved a refreshing change of pace. to yue, sokka’s and his bright-eyed sincerity was an escape. yue was the only person sokka ever asked out (to do an activity with, to be precise), but she initiated all of their kisses. suki kissed sokka first, on kyoshi island, and then again at the serpent’s pass. only once sokka knew for sure what she wanted did he try to kiss her. both of sokka’s relationships are founded upon mutual respect and communication, and both suki and yue are impressed and endeared by his humility. so why do ppl wanna paint him as some smooth-talking, cocky or even blustering ladies’ man.... because he had two (2) whole girlfriends, whose arcs complement each other and develop his character in significant ways? yeah girls like sokka. but it’s not like he’s doing anything to encourage that. he is just... standing there...... bein his nerdy self.......

“bitter work” aka “angry local gays yell at god”

I offer you this beautiful friendship | For @teabagginses

Please pleas e pl e a se share more of your gaang kids headcannons I love them. And I'm also begging you to elaborate on what Sokka teaches the kids specifically!

yes yes yes anon thank you for the validation™! 

sokka and bumi have a really close relationship since bumi is the only non-bender of the group and sokka knows how that feels. bumi, therefore, is the only one who gets boomerang and sword lessons

sokka takes it upon himself to tell izumi all the stupid things zuko did as a teen “he invaded the northern water tribe on his own in the middle of a blizzard?! because he was...stubborn?” “yes, yes he did. now go bully him about it”

he also teaches izumi to yell that she must REGAIN HER HONOR at every opportune moment. zuko is ready to murder sokka about it

kya and bumi both inherit their sense of humour from sokka. they follow katara and aang around spouting bad sokka-style puns. katara swears she’s never leaving tenzin alone with him

sokka is secretly the mastermind behind all bumi’s prank wars. he’s a tactician, after all - let’s be real, he can pull off the best pranks

once, a extremely drunk teenage kya turned up on his doorstep because she knows her parents would be furious if they saw her like that. sokka isn’t exactly happy with her, but he lets her crash there and tells aang and katara she’s okay. her parents never actually find out how drunk she was and kya is always grateful to sokka about it

tenzin tends to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders and sokka is the only one who can get him to lighten up. he teaches him sokka-approved stress relief methods, including but not limited to: singing terrible and foul-mouthed sea shanties at the top of his lungs, getting mani-pedis and learning how to do kyoshi warrior makeup. tenzin still uses them today, leading to an extremely awkward interaction wherein korra catches him painting his toenails

sidenote: katara never forgives him for the time she heard tenzin sing a sea shanty  

lin and suyin are the only ones who don’t get taught how to annoy their mother, because sokka can never quite bring himself to be mean to toph.

lin likes listening to his stories. he tells her all about how he planned the invasion on the day of black sun, about how he and zuko broke into the boiling rock prison. he makes a special effort to tell lin stories about how brave and strong her mom is 

su gets the best advice from sokka. if she’s feeling low or like she’s not getting enough attention from toph, sokka’s the one she turns to. he always helps her talk through her emotions and is the one who encouraged her to reach out to lin when their relationship became rocky

No one helps, cares for and looks out for Katara the way Sokka does. The most important relationship of her life and vice versa
