katara loves meeting the parents. she tries never to break up with a guy until after she’s had at least one dinner with his family. that way, then, once they have broken up, if they’re still on good terms afterwards and happen to run into each other, he’ll be like “my family keeps asking about you” and katara will be like [smiles charmingly] “oh?” and he’s like “yeah i guess you made a really great impression on them” and katara, who knows full well that adults love her due to how polite & smart & gracious & cute she is, is like [twirls hair] “omg really? that makes me so happy <3” and, well. it does. it really, really does. 
#katara#sokka knows exactly what she's doing and thinks she's sick for it#but she can't help that she loves being validated by grown ups!!!!!#i mean. no judgment from me#when i was in elementary school i'd talk to certain kids specifically because otherwise it would be weird that i was friends#with their parents but not them#i give good parent.mp3 rights!#i love how a running thread throughout the show is simply how much parents adore katara#or authority figures in general tbh#shes just so good at being polite to adults#shes even nice to pakku??? which like. why????#meanwhile sokka slaps a general in the face for being mildly incompetent#kanna enabled her too much and now she has an addiction to being adored by parental figures#she bets toph that she can get the beifongs to her like her and toph is like 'I WILL NOT BE TAKING THAT BET THANKS'#michi & ukano DO like her actually. bc she is so good with tom tom#even tho they are still of the belief that she kidnapped him in the first place#whos seriously gonna believe that THE LEMUR DID IT#but honestly it doesnt matter bc she agrees to babysit for free!#sokka's like 'wait are u srs mai's extremely wealthy parents offered to pay u and u declined??'#and katara's like 'well i dont want their fire nation blood money' and sokkas like 'WHY THE FUCK NOT???????????'#also i was thinking of haru's parents specifically. they are always asking about her. esp his dad. he wants katara to date his son so bad...#also yes note that i said when katara dumps a guy#never the reverse#simply would not happen#katara got dumped ONCE#it was by a hot local psychic who broke up w her by reading her palm saying he foresaw heartbreak in her future and then walked away.#permanently.#okay these tags went in like 50 different directions#tldr katara loves grown ups & grown ups love her & we love her for it
