Aww, this is very sweet. They're such real siblings. I loved how you showed them as a unit and then happily within the Gaang. It's nice to see a depiction of really close togetherness that isn't at all exclusionary.

(Teeniest of notes, your link is slightly borked and keeps trying to find the url on DW. Not a big deal, but very fixable. :))

Argh! Thank you, it's fixed now. I love the way Katara and Sokka can bicker and annoy each other, and this isn't a crisis, it's just the normal way families act. And you're right. It's wonderful how Katara and Sokka can be so close and so loving, and that this closeness is never a barrier from them becoming close to and loving with others. Healthy sibling bonds like theirs aren't exclusionary in the real world, but it's rare for fiction to get that right.
