there’s something so adorable to me about the way sokka and suki both strive to be more like the other. like, when sokka boasts that he’s the best warrior in his village, both he and the audience know that this is only technically true. whereas suki actually is the greatest warrior in her village, and a great warrior period. and sokka, who of course knows that he is inexperienced and wholly untrained, is eager to learn from her and openly admires her. after all, she’s essentially the very embodiment of everything he always wished he could be, as a warrior and as a leader. and the fact that she doesn’t have to be a man to be a great warrior is even more affirming, because this revelation provides him with the opportunity to transcend the fixed roles he has always pressured himself to conform to.
conversely, suki is inspired to expand her reach and explore the world upon meeting sokka. she had always believed that staying in her village and defending her island would forever be her first priority, but then she sees sokka’s willingness to grow and adapt and expand his perspective beyond the limited paradigms within which he has been inculcated, and his open-mindedness rubs off on her; she decides to travel the world, to expand the possibilities of what she knows and better herself through the growth of learning. had sokka been more stubborn, perhaps suki would have simply remained in her village her entire life, convinced that there is no point in expanding one’s horizons. had suki been less skilled, perhaps sokka would have never changed his mind and found the opportunity for freedom in what lies beyond purely patriarchal dogmas.
suki is an incredible warrior and leader, and so sokka takes the opportunity to learn from her so that he may emulate her. sokka is an incredible scientist who is constantly growing as a person through exploration and discovery, and so suki decides to follow in his footsteps so that she may also reach her full potential. and when they find each other again, sokka is already a far better warrior and leader through her instruction, and suki has already helped far more people than she would have by simply sitting around her isolated village for the rest of her life. and they keep finding each other, and learning from each other, and becoming better people individually through their partnership. they are similar enough to speak the same language fluently and intuitively, but just different enough that their respective virtues synergize in a way that makes them a perfect unit. by providing the other with a model to which they can aspire, they help each other grow.

Could you explain your position on Shallura? Since Allura was established as a teenager when she started dating Lance and Shiro was very clearly an adult. I can understand the bi shiro headcannon but the shallura thing worries me
i am going to remind yall that i have been in this fandom since 2016. and in the early seasons, allura was not established as a teenager. in fact she was coded as older, as closer to shiro's age -- there was a specific divide between her and the younger paladins that she did not have with shiro. they made her younger (both explicitly and in mannerisms) as the show went on. and i do not give a fuck about voltron like...post s4 and i didn't even watch s7-8. so like. especially with older fics, im going to enjoy shallura.

A kind reminder to the twsties out there that sebek and silver are not siblings. Lilia did not raise sebek he took him on as an apprentice, sebek does not see him as a father figure (because he already has a present father), he does not see silver as a brother (again he has siblings) or vice versa. They are childhood friends with really close family connections since lilia knows his grandfather and were treated as equals when training under Lilia, hence any allusion to their fraternity. Any other sibling-isms applied to them are personal interpretation that's all♡
