---------------------------
Dedication: To my cousin Ryan, who has recently become a big brother for the first time!
---------------------------

One of the things that makes Sokka my favoritest character (after Iroh!) is the fact that he is such a good big brother. (^_^) I wonder if Katara knows how lucky she is!

This comic is intentionally without words, mainly because the dialouge would get in the way of the pictures. That, and Sokka and Katara are 5 and 3 1/2, respectively - having them "speak in pictures" is somehow more... childlike? Just go with it.

Pt. 2 can be found here: [link]

Katara's "puppy-dog eyes" is based on the Look my little sister gives me when she wants something from me.

"Being a big brother means knowing when to Protect, and when to Let Go."

P.S. - I'VE JUST BEEN ACCEPTED INTO A GRAD SCHOOL IN JAPAN!!! WHOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~!!!

Katara-sokka, wha'?
Sokka-WHAT THE HECK WERE YOU DOING WITH A PENGUIN?! I WAS LOOKING FOR YOU EVERYWHERE!

I know I am EXTREMELY late (this was drawn in 2006 O.o) but still, I loved this comic. It actually made me tear up a little because my older brothers are now leaving me Is not only the older siblings that suffer, is the younger siblings too because they watch the older siblings leave them Still, I loved this comic.

Yeah... I did this as an older sib, but now my little sister tells me anytime we talk how much she misses me.

Thanks!

Cute comic! I feel the same way about Sokka, and I actually do have a brother who is a lot like him, except he's younger than me. I think Katara needs to be a lot more patient with Sokka, really. She tends to berate and belittle him. I guess they have an odd relationship because she tries to mother him even though he's older.

sylvacoer In reply to Maran-Zelde [2010-07-08 00:52:20 +0000 UTC]

Siblings tend to do that. I think it's because Sokka tried to take his father's admonitions literally, and because he'd never had any frame of reference outside of his culture, he went about it in a very heavy-handed manner. He got better.

LeishaWolfeh [2009-12-14 11:44:53 +0000 UTC]

Wait... I thought Katara's older, since she took care of Sokka when their mother was taken away. He also can't remember what their mother looks like - he mentioned that whenever he thinks of their mother, Katara's face shows up - while Katara can.

Sorry to ruin it, but it's still a nice comic.

sylvacoer In reply to LeishaWolfeh [2009-12-14 13:45:26 +0000 UTC]

I believe it's called hyperbole...
sokka is most definitely the older sibling, and he tried hard to protect his little sister, even when she proves she really doesn't need his help
