#but can I just put it on record that the ‘zutara lite’ we got in the comics in the form of zuko and suki was hot garbage??

the ONLY world in which I’d accept sokka as the SWT ambassador to the FN instead of katara is a world in which katara is CHIEF of the SWT (like my girl deserves)!! I mean, can you just imagine the sheer INSANITY sokka would feel having to deliver the love letters/gifts his baby sister and the fire lord frequently send to each other every time he travels between the FN and the SWT?? like, he is genuinely happy for them but he’s also sickened by their behaviour (particularly at peace summits, but really just whenever they’re in the same room, “IS THIS ALLOWED?? YOU TWO DO REALISE YOU’RE IN PUBLIC??” to which katara argues that turnabout is fair play) and he complains about it regularly to suki, who is actually a key reason he took the job in the first place!! obviously he’s a pragmatist and he wanted to put his genius brain to use helping his nation in any way he could (even though he’ll be the first to admit that diplomacy isn’t always his forte), but he also wanted to be closer to his wife since she’s the head of zuko’s security detail ;)
