The real Sokka/NWT love story (contains spoilers)

So I think we can mostly agree, that the Yuekka love story in the live action was rubbish. Luckily they came up with somethingone better.

If you are not into non-canon ships, just scroll over this, because these are just my thoughts as an incorrigible ATLA shipper.

Netflix proved that they are able to show a believable love story in the new live action (looking at Sokka/Suki). Whatever they did with Yue and Sokka was not it. However, I am convinced that there was a love interest for Sokka at the Northern Water Tribe.

Uh-huh. Combat advice. Sure my dude. That's why you're looking at him like that.

Yes, I'm talking about Hahn. I just love the changes they did to his character and I am convinced he had a serious crush on Sokka in this (and vice versa).

I loved the meet-cute scene, because Hahn seemed so excited to meet Sokka and Sokka seemed so surprised but also flattered like: Wait a minute, does this guy like me? And then Hahn's 'Would you like come and talk to them' totally gave me the 'Would you like to do... an activity?'-vibe from the original series.

Look how they look at each other:

And that little relieved exhale 'Great' when Sokka agreed to come with him. Totally convinced me that this was solely for combat advice and no other reason. Even Arnook seemed amused when they left, despite the seriousness of the situation.

Cut to Hahn telling Sokka that he's anxious about the upcoming fight and worried for his comrades.

Sokka: I'm sure they'll do great. Especially with you leading them.

He's embarrassed about it, but look at Hahn:

Which leads us to them talking about Yue and about the fact, that she broke off the betrothal. The way Hahn talks about her makes it seem like, yeah it was awkward but actually he doesn't seem sad or devastated. When Sokka asks him if he would have gone through with it and married her, Hahn says nothing but he looks super uncomfortable. Which, for me indicates, yes he would have but he wouldn't have liked it. Also, Sokka looking at him like he's thinking: Please say no, please say no.

After that, we get Sokka talking to Yue about Hahn, and when she says that Hahn is a great guy and that any girl would be lucky to have him, to me Sokka's expression translated to: Not only a girl, sis.

And then they give us that scene just when the battle is about to begin, the emotional goodbye. Did you see their eye contact? Hahn was solely looking at Sokka when he told him to take care (of her), but he didn't even spare Yue a glance. They just looked at each other and then that dramatic, romantic music in the background?

That's where they should have kissed.

I don't know about you, but the whole Hahn/Sokka story line held much more tension and chemistry than anything we got with Yue/Sokka on screen. I really didn't get any vibe that there were feelings between Yue and Sokka. There were a hell of a lot of feelings between him and Suki in the earlier episode (and with Hahn in this one imo).

Conclusion: They're in love your honor. And the producers were cowards.

That being said, I also love the height difference.

I like this new ship and I hope that more people will get in on it. *Hoping for fanfics and fanworks* But what should we call it? Sokkahn? Hakka?

Anyway, thanks for coming to my TED-talk.

Sometimes...characters being in a romantic relationship is worse.

#text #sometimes it's the most boring way to have characters interact #sometimes it's worse than the chemistry they have as literally any other kind of relationship #sometimes their platonic dynamic is better #sometimes their hostile dynamic is better #sometimes their dynamic is better if it's anything other than romance #because maybe them falling into generic romance is how you ruin their characters.#aro #aromantic #aroace #i only tag these because it feels relevant to why i feel this way

look, I know I've talked about this essay (?) before but like,

If you ever needed a good demonstration of the quote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic", have I got an exercise for you.

Somebody made a small article explaining the basics of atomic theory but it's written in Anglish. Anglish is basically a made-up version of English where they remove any elements (words, prefixes, etc) that were originally borrowed from romance languages like french and latin, as well as greek and other foreign loanwords, keeping only those of germanic origin.

What happens is an english which is for the most part intelligible, but since a lot everyday english, and especially the scientific vocabulary, has has heavy latin and greek influence, they have to make up new words from the existing germanic-english vocabulary. For me it kind of reads super viking-ey.

Anyway when you read this article on atomic theory, in Anglish called Uncleftish Beholding, you get this text which kind of reads like a fantasy novel. Like in my mind it feels like it recontextualizes advanced scientific concepts to explain it to a viking audience from ancient times.

Even though you're familiar with the scientific ideas, because it bypasses the normal language we use for these concepts, you get a chance to examine these ideas as if you were a visitor from another civilization - and guess what, it does feel like it's about magic. It has a mythical quality to it, like it feels like a book about magic written during viking times. For me this has the same vibe as reading deep magic lore from a Robert Jordan book.

my 2022 highlight was when a guy was driving me home after a date and his phone was playing songs on youtube thru the aux on autoplay BUT he was also using it as a satnav so we had to just cope with whatever song came on. anyway we listened to the isolated vocals for "eye of the tiger" in silence because neither of us acknowledged it and it got to a certain point where it would be even weirder if one of us did say something

/edit: I realise a text post doesn't even do it justice, it went exactly like this

#and there wasnt much chemistry to begin with bc we had quite different senses of humour so it was just weird dhfjfjgk 💀#marko.txt

How funny is it that Supernatural wanted to replace Castiel with Anna as the angel to guide Dean through the Apocalypse. And Dean and hers romance would parallel that of Sam and Ruby's. But Cas was too popular. And beloved. So they killed Anna and left Cas. And so Cas and Dean's relationship ended up paralleling Sam and Ruby's roman-- [gunshots]
