probably for the best Kotu as a Toa would've been an absolute menace

After arriving in Metru Nui, the Turaga began to occasionally call each of the Toa ‘brother’ or ‘sister’, partially an acknowledgment of their past lives, partially to acknowledge the success that the Toa Nuva have earned, and largely as camaraderie in the bond that they share as Toa or former Toa.
Tahu outwardly acts like it’s only right that he’d be addressed as such, trying to make others believe that he accepts it in stride, but inwardly, he is humbled by the acknowledgment. The Turaga see through his bluster and appreciate his humility.
Onua is outwardly quite humble and appreciative when it happens, but inwardly, he doesn’t quite see himself as being worthy of being addressed by such wise beings as the Turaga, who he holds in high esteem, so he usually comes off as a little bashful when he responds in kind.
The Turaga started being reluctant to call Gali ‘sister,’ largely because she reacts to the title, by pushing herself a little too hard to prove that she is worthy of the acknowledgment. She once to stayed up all night for two days while repairing an aqueduct in Ga-Metru, and when she could barely keep awake during a meeting with the Turaga, everyone immediately decided that Nokama should not call Gali sister anymore.
Kopaka typically glances at whoever called him this and slightly nods, sort of a polite acknowledgment, but those who know him best, especially Nuju, know that he is actually quite touched by the endearment, and he has to be stoic to keep up appearances. Whenua, having the best hearing, has multiple times heard Kopaka whisper ‘thank you, brother’ in response to Nuju or Vakama.
Takanuva started out being quite flustered when he was called brother by any of the elders, still being unused to being called brother even by the other Toa, but as he grew used to his powers and his responsibilities, he began to accept it in stride. He still won’t return the title, since he still uncomfortable with the idea of calling any of the Turaga by that term, but he is still moved by the respect they show him.
Lewa was delighted when they started calling him brother, But he’s also somewhat amused, often laughing when they call him that. To Lewa, it’s still difficult to imagine these wise old beings as Toa heroes, so he can’t always keep himself from laughing. Even so, he never fails to respectfully return the honorific.
The Toa Mahri have varying degrees of acceptance of the honorific. Jaller is proud to carry the title, and Hahli is eager to prove herself worthy of the honorific (though not as much as Gali). Kongo is a bit smug about it, Nuparu takes it in stride, and Hewkii tends to get sort of ‘aw, shucks’ about it. All of them are somewhat muted in their response, mostly because Nuju was the first to call them brother and sister. They all understand that Nuju calls them that as much as he does in memory of Matoro, and his regret that he never got to see his friend as a Toa and call him ‘brother’ in person. The Mahri learned the bird speak for Brother and Sister, and they always call Nuju brother right back.
And the Turaga universally agreed never to call Pohatu ‘brother’ again shortly after the first few times. After then, he began exclusively referring to the Turaga as brother or sister, always with extreme enthusiasm that the elders often find exasperating and often demanding fist bumps from any Turaga he encounters for days after. Most of them just quietly stopped calling him that, except for Onewa, who continued occasionally calling him brother when he felt he had earned it, but after Pohatu found out that Turaga Dume had been a Toa, the seven had an official meeting where they unanimously voted not to call Pohatu brother anymore. Matau still occasionally calls him that, though, because he personally thinks it’s fucking hilarious when Pohatu tries to fist bump Nuju.

>Own tools for self defence since that's what the Great Beings intended
>Four members of the Brotherhood of Makuta break into my hut
>"Holy Gadunka!" I say, as I grab my silver painted mask and zamor sphere launcher
>Launch a Kolhii ball sized sphere of Energized Protodermis through the first Makuta, he's dead on the spot
>Draw my disk launcher on the Vortixx, misses her entirely because the disk was from Ko-Metru and nails the neighbour's Kavinika
>Have to resort to the Cordak Blaster at the top of the stairs, six rounds loaded
>"For Mata Nui!"
>The explosions shred two Piraka in the blast, the sound sets the local Ussal population off
>Grab my Whirling Shields, charge the last terrified Steltian and break his body so badly the Red Star can't put him back together
>Just as the Great Beings intended

I like how: "We all make mistakes. That's what happens when you're brave enoughh to make decisions." Sounds like some inspirational quote from some long dead philopsher... ...but it's actually said in a Bionicle movie by this guy:

Novice *Toa*, not novice heroes.
Was rereading the Voya Nui books and I am gushing over how proud I still am of our little Matoran band. Jaller flips off the Turaga and gets the entire island on strike to get answers. They expect despair and he doesn't hesitate for an instant. He leaves Metru Nui with the best team he could assemble of war heroes, athletes, and scholars. They flip off Bionicle Satan repeatedly, then, and only then do they become Toa. And when they do, they don't hesitate, stutter, or falter, they take on Vezok IMMEDIATELY.
They were novice Toa, but they weren't novice heroes. You may look like a hero, you may feel like a hero, but it's what you do that makes you a hero. You don't have to be a Toa to be a hero.
