        “  c’mon,  sokka,  don’t be such a  downer.  it’s not that big a deal,  anyways,  so stop freaking out at every little thing.  ”

@waerior​  STARTER CALL.

A general look of disdain crosses his face, mouth twitching.  The little water tribe boy was getting more on his nerves than he wanted to admit.

“--I’m sorry, were you saying something?”

SOKKA :  ( @waerior​ ) 

when   he   hears   ———   that    SHE   IS  GONE    he  doesn’t   hesitate.    he   goes.   immediately,   fighting   his   way  to   save   his   sister,    running.   sokka   doesn’t   even   think   about   any   of   his   actions   as   he  attacks   those   around   him.   he   just   wants   her  back.    that   lightning    crazy    mean   girl   has   no   idea   what’s   coming   his   way.   his   expert   plan   works  ———   well    almost.   when   katara   is   back,   he  is   so   overjoyed.   he   doesn’t   feel   it.   sokka   sits   with   his   back   against  the  ship,   looking   at   the   map   when   he   feels   it.

                        ‘  katara — ‘ sokka  calls,   when   he  immediately   falls   to  the  side.   the   pain   is   burning.    how  did   he  miss  it?   he   doesn’t   even    remember   how  it….got   there?      did  azula   hit   him   with   the   bolt?   he   doesn’t……sokka   can’t   remember   and   now   the  pain…..is   so   blinding   he   can’t   focus.       he   doesn’t   want   to   die.   he   doesn’t.     he   shouldn’t.    ‘   something’s    wrong —   my    side,  ‘    he   takes   off   his   fur   to    show   the    blood   coming   from   his     stomach   and   sokka   feels   it,   feeling   so   lost    anad   dizzy.   ‘ katara —  i —  i   don’t   want   to  die.   ‘

THE FIRST THING SHE FEELS is relief. her brother appears in the doorway of a darkened tunnel, moss grows on the sides of the walls, and in a tiny refuge does katara SIT UP, half - expecting another FIRE NATION GUARD to take her to her worst fears ( HER ! ). but it was not a large man in THREATENING ARMOR. it was sokka. sokka. the next thing she remembers -- he’s leaning over her, a strange look in his eye. katara feels something on her cheek. salty, wet. a TEAR. is he crying over her ? her, with the burn - marks that covered her arms, wrists, legs, stomach. her, his SISTER.

everything comes in waves and flashes. a RETURN to their base, a grouping of people she could hardly RECOGNIZE. aang’s voice, toph’s voice, sokka’s voice. and then ? HOME ? no, but it was cool water, a moment where katara could see BLUE as aang places her in river’s current. it is later -- when KATARA watches her brother fall -- that she recognizes the DIRE SITUATION. blood stains the wooden boards of the ship that they had made their way onto. aang moves faster than her to her brother’s side, but katara is not far behind.

‘ -- ... SOKKA. ’ it is a burst of emotion ; raw and hurting, and as she moves closer, katara’s hands are already reaching for the nearby waves.  ‘ sokka, NO. ’ she could not say anything else ( her throat still burned from SMOKE AND FLAME ), but her hands move. they move to rip the clothing darkened red to reveal a BURN. they move to guard themselves in water ( OH, how she wished she had anything more to give ! ) before resting over the area of injury. another BLUE flash, and katara watches as the wound BARELY shuts, still painful and red and ANGRY. ‘ sokka, i CAN’T... -- ’ she is not capable. katara looked downwards, saw the burn marks on her own arms, on her own hands, and further, towards the wound that now TAINTS her brother’s side. ‘ i'm not... STRONG ENOUGH. ’

@waerior​ asked : “ what ?? no ‘ bless you ? ’ i’ll remember that . ”

       ‘ oh, i'm SORRY, ’ katara jokes, a dramatic curtsy when she realizes her grave MISTAKE. ‘ i'll make sure I do that next time. ’
