taylor! i am offering you this: prince! sokka and appointed knight! y/n. no, i will not be elaborating. -🌈 anon
this is it. this is the final piece of my blog and i can pass away happily with this thought only, swirling around my head.
rainbow anon, HOW have i never thought of this before. you're the only one who can be blamed if i write a drabble based off of this now.
in an atla AU where There Is No War, the southern water tribe can still be a dangerous place, and it's even more dangerous when you're the Crowned Prince of your Nation. Or that's what all the advisors tell Sokka, not that he'd know, he's never allowed out of the palace unless it's for sanctioned activity; some party or some other boring meeting he has to go to.
But Sokka always been so curious!! He's given the best tutors the SWT has to offer and then they ask for complacence from him? they teach him the wonders of the world that live outside of this frigid palace and expect him to not want to go there??!!!! so no one can blame him if he wants to see the great city of Ba Sing Se and the huge walls they built long ago, when the world was a much scarier place. It's only the tutors fault if Sokka wants to travel to all the Airbender temples and meet with his friend Aang and learn all about airbender culture from the airbenders themselves! (plus Aang says they have the best fruit pies in the whole world, and Aang's actually gotten to travel the world, so he would know). Why wouldn't Sokka want to visit Zuko and Azula and Mai and Ty Lee in the Fire Nation without guards flanking his every move??
But Sokka has no means, and no way to get out of the Water Tribe and onto a boat anywhere without getting caught. I mean he's smart, but not street smart. He only mentions wanting to leave for a bit ("Just to get away, Katara! Not forever!") to Katara once before she's knocking at his door three nights later with a scheming look in her eye. "You said you wanted to travel the world? I can help you with that."
In enters Y/N. Sokka knows that he's never seen her around before, he'd remember that, so where exactly did Katara find her?!
"She's a knight-in-training, but she used to travel a lot with her family and she's really good. I see her training when I'm out practicing my waterbending."
Y/N gives a little bow, but the smirk on her face makes Sokka blush because that felt really mocking. "So Prince Sokka, what do you say? Are we going to run away together?"
#and then they DID!!#it probably pretty buddy/cop at the beginning#y/n being all sarcasm and wit#but what she doesn't expect is that sokka only talks in sarcasm as well so they get along way better than she thought they would#but she knows that lord(?) hakoda is going to be /pissed/ when no one can find his son#so she makes sokka write letters home telling them that he ran away and is not dead in a ditch#and sokka is like#and dont worry i'm not dumb i brought a knight w me to keep me safe... here y/n say hi#y/n: .....#and imagine the fun they would have wearing disguises!!!!#sokka thinks that shopping for disguises is the best part of the whole trip#and they visit all of sokka's friends!!!!! as they make their trip around the world#and they fall in love as they do it :')#ugh this is brain rot#oh fuck theres probably one night where they can't get to an inn in time and it gets too dark and y/n says they have to set up camp#but as soon as she gets one tent up it STARTS POURING RAIN and she has to abandon building the other tent#and so they huddle inside of one tent together soaking wet#and it's all very 'and there was only one bed'#but at this point both of them are pining hard#but y/n is like 'i can't he's the prince he could never like me like that'#and sokka is like 'i can't i'm a prince and y/n would never like me like that'#but IT IS IT IS LIKE THAT#and then they kiss because duh dude they're soaking wet from the rain and cuddled in a tent together#the end#taylor talks#rainbow anon
