SOKKA >:O

[askerian]

+ OTP for them: SokkaSukiiii.
+ Runner-up pairing: .__. i am a bad, bad person but totally sokkakatara.
+ Honorable mention(s): SokkaYue was kinda sweet. ;_;
+ Crack pairing(s): SokkaZuko is alright. XD SOKKA AZULA. I bet he could charm EVEN HER, and it would be an amazing show of smart, sharp-mindedness to be able to deal with her on even ground. Oh god, they'd need to have so much amazing brainsex before they even get close to realsex.
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't: SokkaToph. Her crush is adorable, and their friendship is really fun, but I don't like it to become a ship. :/

...You make Sokka/Azula sound kind of appealing, and that is a sentence I never expected to write!

I get what you mean I about Sokka/Toph--I admit to loving them, but it's more as partners and friends than an actual romantic/physical ship. Because they're really never not going to be hilarious when they interact.

SOKKA AZULA. I bet he could charm EVEN HER, and it would be an amazing show of smart, sharp-mindedness to be able to deal with her on even ground. Oh god, they'd need to have so much amazing brainsex before they even get close to realsex.
I feel sure I've read this already. By ardy1, I think.

*de-lurks*

Your runner up pairing...eats my brain. How do you work that one out though if/when you write that? Culturally, I mean. Or hell, how do you get the characters to agree to it?

btw, I love your writing. :D

Heya ^___^ thank you.

I did, a couple years ago, start a darkfic (now completely abandoned, seriously never touching it again) where Aang had been killed and Azula was BWAHAHAing across the countryside, and Katara knew the Avatar would be reborn in the Water Tribe and thought he would choose to be reborn close to people who had loved him, and her brother was the only Water Tribe guy in the area (wasn't like she could ask a guy from another country, what if the kid ended up the wrong kind of bender to become the Avatar?) Anyway, she was desperate and in pain and feeling guilty over not saving Aang and in HUGE denial that there's nothing more to be done, and Sokka tried to tell her it was crazy but well, he'd do just about anything for her, even when he knows it's a horrible idea. In the end I never decided whether anything did happen between them, or if Sokka stopped it before it could go that far, but I know afterwards he points out that even if they get the Avatar back he still would not be *Aang*, and then she breaks down.

I dunno, I really liked the dynamics in that story, all entangled together in bonds that aren't necessarily comfortable or positive, but still unbreakable, and having all that huge history with some really bitter parts, but loving each other no matter what, even if they do some things they might never forgive.

Anyway, culturally it worked because it was a really dystopian fic. I think this is a pairing that tends to work better when they've lost even their village or are really far away and cling to each other because they're the only thing accessible/left of their past. Though hey, with such a small village as the Southern Tribe has got, I bet they don't have much choice but to allow first cousin marriage, and considering Katara seems to be the only teenage girl and the last waterbender, she'd have to get married at some point if they'd never left the village. Dunno. *ponders* I get the feeling you could do something with that, but I'd have to think about it more to figure out the specifics, because in general cousin =/= sibling.

Abandoned? That's cool. The fact there even was one is a plus. I was mostly interested in how it would work. You're pretty thorough when you do your worldbuilding. *hearts*

I was thinking the pairing would never work, but the way you've explained it makes sense. The dynamics sound awesome- and the way you described it made me think of Team 7 and their bonds.

As far as the size of the village Katara was from, that also raises some questions about the age of her possible suitors. Her options looked like it was either going to be ten years younger than her or fifteen years older(one of her father's warriors, probably). When she was at the North Pole and people saw her necklace, no one thought it was odd for her age, and they have plenty of people.

And I admit to being relieved Pakku wasn't all my engagement necklace=my bride. Maybe that was just me imagining the vibe, but Northern Water Tribe seemed repressed enough they'd be okay with it. Until Katara fed him to Koizilla, at least.
