It's about stinking time I typed this up… finally. Grarahgherh! Ahem. In any case, it's like four and I'm going insane… why you ask? I want food… but it's not anywhere close to dinner time yet… so… I'm kinda stuck between gettin' yelled at for snacking… or dealing with this annoyance… meh… whatever. Apathetic-ness for myself! Woot.
Sokka: That's just really nice. Good job. You're hurting yourself either way.
Haninator: I AM finally typing this, so cut me some slack, Mr. You-Must-Write-For-Me!
Sokka: Okay, okay. No need to PMS over it.
Haninator: I'm NOT PMSing!
Sokka: Okay, then…
Haninator: -.- I'm just hungry, is all.
Sokka: Uh… well… the world isn't gonna end…
Haninator: Yeah… I know… you feel like this all the time.
Sokka: Not true! I resent that!
Haninator: Haha. Teasing, I was.
Yoda: TOLD YOU, I DID. DIE, YOU WILL.
Haninator: Gorrammit.

One Thing
Restless tonight 'cauz I wasted the light
I toss and turn viciously in bed. Why'd I have to get involved? Why couldn't I just keep my mouth shut for once? It's not fair. Life took her from me before I was ready. And suddenly, I know I can't stay here anymore. I'll lose my mind if we remain with the Northern Water Tribe. But… Aang and Katara need to learn waterbending. I'm stuck. There's no forward, no up. Why did Zhao have to be so obstinate? He needed the moon spirit as much as we did. I wish things were different. If I could have taken Yue's place, I would have in a heartbeat. I guess that's what love is, truly: Being willing to sacrifice something for someone so selflessly.
If I knew all about this one thing,
Wouldn't that be something?
Why Princess Yue? Why now? I knew I could've died in battle. I was perfectly fine with the idea of having a warrior's death. I just never expected that I'd be the one left down here, mourning.
If I traded it all, if I gave it all away for one thing,
Just for one thing,
If I sorted it out, if I knew all about this one thing,
Wouldn't that be something?
I can't bear facing a loss like this again. What if next time… it's Aang… or Katara? I-I could never live through losing my sister… but… seeing her crushed would destroy me, too. We might fight rather often, but that doesn't change the fact that we're family, though sometimes I wish it would. I know that I can't let them die. That's why I have to stay here, whether it drives me crazy or not.

Haninator: Okay, now that we've got it settled, Yoda, I'm gonna do a fic for you eventually. The idea just hasn't come to me yet. When it does, you'll know. Oh, hi, guys! I guess this means you're done… unless you just skipped down here to resolve the AN cliffy. XD Anywho… this is NOT the Sokka fluff I mentioned, so yeah… But… This is something I wrote after finishing the assignment in Creative Writing. Of course, Sokka, Yue, Katara, Aang, and all other terms and places related to Avatar the Last Airbender are © to Nickolodeon. The song "One Thing" is © to Finger Eleven. The character study you just read… well… that's mine… but it's not copyrighted…
Sokka: It's COPY-WRONGED!
*cymbal clash*
Haninator: You are insane. XD I have another Sokka/Yue story coming… for the song… "Paralyzer" by Finger Eleven. Boosh. Well, reviews are nice. It's time for me to go back to my hole…
Sokka: You don't wanna spend time in holes… NOT comfy. I should know.
Haninator: Yeah… I bet. XD
Sokka: It wasn't really my fault!
Haninator: It never is. ;D
Sokka: Is that supposed to be an insult?
