Another great trope is BAMF!Sokka showing everyone how good of a fighter or strategist he is. He deserves all the love

loveee the thought of zuko as fire lord making his first diplomatic visit to the SWT and sokka taking FULL advantage of his and zuko’s friendship status to mortify his fellow council members and the general population of the south pole, as well as the fire lord himself.
like zuko will be chatting with some council members and sokka comes up and just starts roasting the fuck out of him. just saying shit like “who let you off the boat in THOSE shoes” to get a reaction out of the council members, who are making giant eyes at him like this is a professional visit where the fuck is your father to restrain you?!!!?
bato would be having an awkward conversation with zuko about resource allotments for the rebuilding effort and sokka needlessly throws in “did you know zuko sings to himself when he’s alone? he’s pretty good. give him a demo, zuko, come on,” and zuko’s grimacing because it was one fucking time sweet spirits sokka and bato is giving sokka the most embarrassed look of his life
sokka throws snowballs at zuko in the middle of the village and zuko falls over four consecutive times as a result.
for all his outward expressions of aggravation, it eventually becomes apparent to everyone that zuko isn’t too bothered by the teasing and sokka doesn’t mean anything by it, because every night they sit at the water’s edge and joke for hours.

Hakoda not realizing Zuko and Sokka are a couple because they act just like he does with Bato and they’re *obviously* just bros.
Obviously.

I gotta suggest something here.
Kya was taller than Hakoda, Ursa and Ozai. The only one who was taller than her was Bato.

It's so cool that Hakoda and Sokka found themselves matching boyfriends who both have burn scars on the same side, don't you think?

Zuko and the masseurs be talking mad shit about certain high ranking Fire Nation military officials
(Based on a scene from @muffinlance​’s Salvage that has unfailingly made me laugh every time I read it)

Y’all I have two points on a conspiracy theory board and I’m dangerously close to connecting them
Tumblr media
This is Katara in Book 1 after they go ice dodging and she gets the “mark of the brave”
Tumblr media
This is Katara in Book 3 as The Painted Lady (ecoterrorist queen)
I know the marks are slightly different but. When she got her mark in Book 1 it was painted on her, and in Book 3 she painted it on herself. I think there’s something to be said about how she could have thought the mark in Book 1 was more similar to her application bc she never actually saw it, only felt it being applied. Do we think there’s a connection here??

You gotta love no matter what ship you support; Zuko x Katara, Zuku x Sokka, Aang x Katara, Suki x Sokka, etc. there is no ship war when it comes to Hakoda and Bato, that ship unifies the atla community

You ever think about how Bato knew Hakoda since they were kids, and he still stuck by his side for decades despite enduring the puns and other wordplay that served as the forerunner of Sokka's sense of humor?

Hakoda, wearing DILF hat Bato gave him
Sokka: don’t you guys think this is a bit much
Katara: like you and Zuko are any better
Zuko, wearing Fuck I’d Like to Dad hat Sokka gave him: I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Working on (yet another) ATLA wip in which during the invasion Azula helps Zuko escape and goes with him (because her beloved dumbass of a brother clearly has not been paying attention to all her subtle warnings on how not to get dead and clearly needs a more direct approach at keeping him alive and mostly in one piece). And in the process of getting the fuck out of dodge, Bato who's been separated from everyone else ends up accidentally crashing their escape party along with Toph and the four of them end up on the run together.
Toph gets along with the two runaway royals who are as suspicious and untrusting if Bato as he is them...at least until the fire siblings unintentionally trauma dump about their fucked up childhood and Bato decides "I'm dad now" and adopts them against their will.
Eventually Azula and Zuko just give up on fighting it and are like "okay cool, you're gonna be Firelord after we kill Ozai and then we can just chill for like, five god damn seconds"
And anyway eventually they all meet up with the Gaang and Hakoda and co and it's just like...
Hakoda:
This is my daughter Katara: Master Water Bender, Teacher of the Avatar, brave and true of heart.
And my son Sokka: genius inventor, master strategist, unmatched in his fierceness and loyalty.
Bato:
This is my new daughter Azula. She'll sell your soul to satan for a fire flake and then use that fire flake to take over hell.
And this is my new son Zuko. He's faral and will probably bite you. Don't leave him alone too long or he'll probably end up trying to fight god again.
And this is Toph... I don't know if I've adopted her or if I'm being held hostage but either way I've started saving up for the next time I have to bail her out of jail.
