i know most of them are just literal animal combinations, but avatar has some of the best fantasy animal character designs i’ve ever seen

thinkin about turtle duck………..

I officially have a head-cannon that Sokka was meant to the next Avatar. Why? Because I really the like the idea!!!

You don’t have to like it but i think its cool

A bit more explanation…

We all know that after Air, Water comes next. Hence Korra.

But we also know Aang disappeared for a 100 years. So technically if he had lived his natural lifespan, never went into the ice, and lived anywhere to be like 80 something years old. A good long lifetime, (Avatar Roku lived to be 70 but Kyoshi lived to be 230 years old. In the show Aang lived close to age 70 but a different life means a different ending)

There’s a good chance someone else would’ve been the next Avatar, not Korra.  

But because Aang didn’t die when he should’ve the person that was REALLY meant to be the next Avatar didn’t get to fulfill their destiny.

What if this person was Sokka.

Why not Sokka?

Sokka who is still the same Sokka. Except for this one, he always thought he was normal. Until… he didn’t. And argument with Katara causes both of their powers to unleash a giant explosion.

Not long after Sokka is told he’s the next Avatar

This image is pretty much Sokka all through Headcannon Book 1.

Everyone keeps their storylines. 

Katara is super powerful Waterbender sister. They would’ve learned together.

Zuko would’ve still hunted him down

He still would’ve met Toph.

Aang, before he died, would’ve put as many Airbenders underground as possible where the Fire Nation couldn’t find them. Maybe had kids of his own. Grandchildren. One of which would’ve help Sokka learn his abilities.

Zuko would’ve had the same story arc/

So again, why not Sokka.

Sokka who had the ability to master all four non-bending fighting styles from each nation. Sokka who had the ability to adapt no matter  where he was and learn from everyone around him and  grow.

Sokka who can honestly say he once dated the MOON!

Sokka was legitimately was of the most badass character of the show.

Even Azula instinctively knew Sokka was a threat.

Honestly, I understand that Sokka went through a shit ton of character development and became great over time. But…

For my headcannon, I think that Sokka always had this power inside of him waiting to be tapped into and unleashed… His Avatar state

But because Aang never kicked the bucket, Sokka could never reach it so instead it manifested in other ways.

Also…

Also, is it worth mentioning Sokka and spirits again?

it’s avatar’s 15th anniversary!! drew the gaang to celebrate ;-;
