I think the most hilarious place to put Post-Canon Sokka would have been the university at Ba Sing Se. I think he would have made a great unhinged professor. Also, in true Sokka fashion, he should have completely dodged fame. Momo is more famous than he is.
He wants to demonstrate to the class how this thing called electricity works, so he's going to be bringing in a Firebender, so everybody be cool, we're all friends here... and in walks Princess Azula of the Fire Nation. One-time conqueror of the city. One of the students is currently writing an essay on how her brief rule of the city affected fruit trade. She says she considers the class to still be her subjects as she doesn't acknowledge any pretenders to any of her thrones, but for now you're exempted from bowing and "Your Highness" will do. It's a really interesting lecture.
"Okay, guys - hey, listen up, everyone - I won't be here next week, me and Aang are going to-" yeah right, sure, Professor Sokka knows the Avatar. Except, of course, the Avatar walks in sheepishly and says that Appa might have gotten into Sokka's hybrid crops, and then you all have to sit there and watch your professor chase the Avatar around with a sword.
One postgrad student is specializing in Water Tribe Cultures. She's currently studying the massive cultural shift that happened in the Northern Water Tribe at the end of the war - oh, and Professor, I absolutely know that you're from the Southern Water Tribe, but it's just that the shift started with Master Katara, and of course I don't think that every person from the South knows one another haha it's just that I need to ask her some questions and I thought maybe you could help me write a letter or write a letter of introduction or...
Sokka looks at her blankly and goes "yeah, she's my sister. KATARA!" which is followed by a faint answering "fuck you!" from Somewhere and to the horror/elation of our postgrad, Master Katara bursts in and is promptly beaned in the head with a rock by Professor Sokka. Her brother. her hero and her professor are siblings and currently brawling on the floor.
Sokka does not teach or study history, but he does sometimes sit in on lectures about recent history. Whenever he does, several doctoral students flock in to sit near him (even if it's an intro course) so that they can eavesdrop on his grumbling. (No matter how they try, an "overheard utterance" is not a valid source according to their professors. No, we have no sources on the Avatar's bison taking part in combat - sky bison are not war animals and...)
He gets regular deliveries with the Beifong family crest on them, and he goes "sweet, Toph must have found some new minerals" and at this point nobody needs to ask which Toph. He seems to have friends everywhere, literally everywhere. Wang was headed out to this massive swamp to study if it's one big organism, and Sokka told him to find some guy named Hue and "don't mind the loincloth." One time the university gets shut down because the Earth King wants to visit. Oh, visit the University? What an honor- Of fucking course not, he wants to visit Professor Sokka, who yells at him and his royal guards for interrupting his day. The Earth King and his many, many royal guards then sheepishly say sorry and file out.
The last straw is when - not a week after he yelled at the Earth King - the assistant head of the Political Science dept walks in to the faculty lounge to find Sokka having tea with a nice normal man dressed in Earth greens for once, and can't resist a little joke. "Let me guess, you're having tea with the Fire Lord." And then she can instantly tell that she fucked up, because both of them go stock still.
So when the two men awkwardly stand up and proceed to introduce the Fire Lord whose portrait she has in her office because she is the assistant head of Political Science as Li, a server at the Jasmine Dragon, she just says "hello Li" and leaves to find a bottle of something strong.
guys maybe because i'm only on season 3 of gossip girl but i absolutely despise blair waldorf. sure she has some iconic lines but i have literally never seen her take accountability for her actions. somehow its everyone's fault but hers??? and why is everything a competition with her. i started watching gg genuinely excited to see blair but this has been one of my biggest disappointments yet.
Edit: This is NOT a post hating leah and walker. I have zero problems with them as percy and annabeth. I promise guys I'm not racist. I was talking about this ERA of percy jackson when it was only the books. I know that the actors are working hard on the show and I appreciate their efforts but the books are special to me just like this version of percabeth holds a special place in my heart. I'm really sorry for the confusion.
- She has the best development in the show, she stars off as the best friend to two very well known and âpopular girlsâ, one who is the daughter of the principal (and gets whatever she wants) the other who follows along with most of whatâs going on. Both friends love her very much, but still donât take her seriously or believe in her gifts.
- Sofi is normally pushed away as âannoyingâ for beatboxing or talking about telenovelas, and not taken seriously. This is why Sofi is really good at understanding how Fede is feeling about Agus.
- I want to be friends with SofĂa and talk about telenovelas, I will happily be her friend, everyone is missing out.
- SofĂa does all she can to fit in with her friends, she practices to become a cheerleader, and the whole time her friends donât take her seriously and donât believe she will get it. Agus is the only one out of the two to try to help Sofi. Itâs not until Mia helps Sofi that Sofi has the confidence to audition and do the steps right.
-Lupe tells Sofi to do something against Mia (again) Sofi already hid Gasparâs papers for Lupe, and this time decides to say no. Lupe by consequence makes it so they donât choose SofĂa fo be a cheerleader (even though it was the best audition they had in years). SofĂa now knows Lupe will have no mercy, not even with her friends.
- there is a couple times before this that SofĂa tries to leave Lupe and comes back, but I think this is realistic when she has only had those two friends. But at the point of being betrayed and hurt on purpose by Lupe, SofĂa doesnât come back.
- she goes and happens to hangout with Mia (beatboxing itâs super fun and cute) and SofĂa admits wanting to have friends like Mia (who would lover her for being her) and Mia says well they can be friends, and so they are. And the growth just continues.
- I love sofi, she is the best side character in my opinion and I just am in awe with how much I love her development
- there is more but I have to refresh my memory . Also she helps feed with his live life and then they fall in love and itâs super dramatic but in the end very cute and I am happy they got together
atla hot take: soo many more people would ship sokka and toph if toph were older
i do not- i repeat- i do not ship sokka and toph, from what i have seen in the show they have a very sibling relationship. maybe toph even has a one sided crush on him due to all the blushing.
but damn i was re-watching the show and if only toph wasn't fucking 12 years old- they would have had soo much potential.
yall im on season 12 of tbbt, and eerm things that i never expected to happen, happened
i thought penny and leonard would be my favourite couple, but after a while, uuhh idk wtf they did with leonard's character (penny is still awesome tho)
howard and bernadette are the BEST couple out of all of them (sheldon and amy are a close second)
raj's curly hair >>>>>>
stuart is lowkey annoying (sometimes iconic, but still annoying)
