“the blue spirit? do u mean lee from the tea shop’s secret boyfriend? we see him coming in the window at the craziest times of night.”

“i wonder if his uncle knows”

sokka: i kind of maybe really like someone, but i’m really worried about telling you who it is, because you’re really not going to like it

katara: just rip it off like a bandage

sokka: it’s zuko…

katara: put the bandage back on. right now

[mothmanavenue]

for ur consideration i humbly present prince consort Sokka, the greatest mind of his generation

[thief-of-eggs]

Thinking about how Zuko almost never laughs in canon. And how Sokka takes alot of his identity from being the “funny one”, the one who can always lighten a mood and make people smile.

Thinking about a Sokka who makes it his mission to get Zuko to even so much as smile. Laughter is his goal, but he’ll take even just a soft smile if he can get it.

He doesn’t know why it irks him so much, that smiles so rarely grace Zuko’s face, that laughter is so rarely heard from the teen Firelord.

But Sokka knows he wants to hear it. Needs to hear it. He can’t explain it- maybe it’s because Zuko is the one person who doesn’t so easily laugh at his jokes- but it becomes an obsession for him.

Over time, Sokka becomes the only person who can wheedle out a genuine laugh from Zuko. The only one who can ease his worry-lined face into softness, who can make a smile appear on his pressed thin lips.

Zuko starts to seek him out, whenever he’s feeling particularly worn down. When pressure sinks into his bones, when tension weighs on his shoulders like the goddamn earth itself- it’s Sokka’s easy smile and quick wit that he seeks.

Before long, they’re both spending every free second they can find in eachother’s company. Sokka stops trying to get Zuko to laugh just to feel better about himself- he starts trying to get him to laugh just because he loves the sound. And Zuko stops seeking Sokka out just because he knows he’ll feel a little calmer from his jokes- he seeks him out because he knows he’ll feel at peace from Sokka.

It’s slow, the way they fall in love. It doesn’t happen overnight. It’s not a flash, no collision that leaves them dazed.

It’s a snowball of little moments. It’s shared laughs and small smiles, it’s leaned on shoulders and quiet evenings where neither utters a word.

It’s slow, but that’s the kind of love that lasts. They wade into the water instead of diving straight in, and by the time they reach the deep end- they both find that they’ve learned how to swim.

strong believer in sokka teaching zuko how to dance (he has absolutely no clue how to either but it’s the thought that counts)

[sabeedraws]

zuko just joined the gaang on my rewatch and I think Sokka quickly realizes what an asset he really is :)

[incorrectquoteslobby]

Sokka: So, what’s Zuko's type? Katara: Brown eyes, kind, oblivious, good sense of humor, turtle lover. Sokka: Sounds kind of like me. Too bad we’re just friends. Katara: Did I mention oblivious? Sokka: Yeah, why? Katara: Okay, just making sure.

I just think Sokka would be a very important person in Kya’s life for multiple reasons but especially as a queer role model

[luzho]

(based on this post) THIS is what made katara realize there’s two of them...

also, wow!! this is my first zukka comic in TWO YEARS... i missed the silliness

[ID: This is a four panel comic of Sokka and Zuko talking while riding Appa in a simplistically drawn sky. In the first panel, Sokka smugly rambles and gestures with his hands while Zuko listens attentively in the back: “I think a common mistake people make about puns is that they often believe puns are meant to make people laugh. This is not so!” Then, the panel zooms in on his face, smiling and clenching his fists against a fiery background: “The emotion that puns are meant to elicit isn’t joy, it’s rage”. In the third panel, Zuko surprises him and leaves him dumbfounded, saying this with a little grin of his own: “Puns are meant to inflict punitive damage”. Finally, they’re both smiling when Sokka turns to look at him, with a flash effect in the background. End ID]

love his disguise but his tea is terrible

Katara is so done with her brother😭

[ambriel-angstwitch]

Katara: Would you still love me if I was a worm?

Aang: Of course I would! And if you were a worm, then I'd be a worm too. We would live in the dirt and make the flowers grow and get worm married and have worm kids.

Sokka: Would you still love me if I was a worm?

Zuko: Sokka, what in Agni’s name are you talking about?
