He was an uncle.

Technically, he still wasn't as his bloodsister wasn't the mother and he didn't have any bloodbrothers, but it was Mel and Zuko and that was close enough, if not, for the moment, closer.

'Cause he was an uncle.

After getting a little tipsy and smokey in 202, Sokka is hopping up stairs to get to a specific room, grinning like a fool the whole way, even while he stands before her door and knocks.

'Cause he's an uncle.

Zuko will bloodbrother up any time now that Azula's out of the picture and Sokka's no longer wearing a big target.

Paige, on the other hand, is not quite an aunt cause she's merely The Girlfriend. ...maye The Fiancee now, but! Still she's pretty sure she hasn't entered family territory.

But she is amused at her tipsy, stinky boyfriend, and kisses him upon arrival. "What's all this now, huh?"

"I'm an uncle!" Sokka announces proudly, beaming wide. At least it's cigar stink, and not cigarette, that's his perfume, because he's throwing his arms around her, getting into the room and Paige gets to go spinning for a few minutes while he laughs.

"Loo's got blue eyes and Hana's got gold and they're both tiny little matches just waiting to set us all on fire and they're adorable and they're my nieces!"

WHEE!

But the spinning stops 'cause he's tipsy and that's not a good combination.

Neices! Yay! :D

Paige is twirled and laughs, but then she leads him over to flop on the couch. "So we got two little pyros runnin' about? Or, well, sleepin', eatin' and poopin'?" Cause that's all they're going to do for a while. "Oh, that's so great! I wonder what time of year it is. It'd be nice to know-- so we could know their birthdays..."

But hey, someone was working on a calandar, right?

Couch! Sokka says hello by flopping and tugging Paige down with him. Lying across it (and taking up as much room as possible) she's tugged down to his lap and he GRINS at her! And tastes like wine if she was paying attention to that kiss. "I told him to hook up a hose to his shower, just in case, but I think he thought I was joking.

"We'll figure out years soon! It's not like we need to know the exact day."

Because he'll be staying years, of course. Can't let those little girls grow up uncle-less!

Nobody seems to have a real idea about going home; sometimes Paige worries about that-- that people migfht slow others down simply because they've found happiness here...

...but she forgets all about in in the face of happy Sokka, actually.

"That's good, but still, birthdays are important!" At least, Paige thinks so. But she kisses her boyfriend (and is noting the taste) before she settles in to cuddle.

"So, twin girls, huh? Both firebenders?" ... "Does that mean your kids are gonna be waterbenders, or only maybe?"

From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
"We only do seasons at home," Sokka replies, and once he realizes she's going for the cuddle, arms are wide and his smile is back to beaming. Your boyfriend is tipsy and warm, Paige! He wants CUDDLES!

"Just maybe, I guess. I mean, Katara's one and I'm not, neither of our parents were, GranGran wasn't, but Grandad was and Mom said her parents were both 'benders, too, but I never met them. It's all kinda chance."

The Force 'benders aren't as strong in their family as they are in Zuko's!

Sokka and Katara aren't part of a royal line that's been inbreeding bending in for centuries! So they sort of lucked out. Also, so did the twins, because hey, fresh blood injection!

"Good to know," she says, and nestles in. "So you had a little party? Everything go okay with the birth? Zuko didn't faint or anything?"

Date: 2006-10-27 06:57 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
Which is good 'cause they might luck out and not get either of their parents' stupid when not inbreeding.

But Sokka has gone quiet for a moment, avoiding her gaze, petting slowly down her back.

"......No."

No, Zuko did not faint.

Date: 2006-10-27 06:59 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
Paige thinks this means that not everything went SMOOTHLY, not ZUKO DID NOT FAINT. "... is somethin' wrong? Are both the babies okay?"

OH GOD THE BABIES AREN'T OKAY ARE THEY?

Date: 2006-10-27 07:01 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
"......Yeah."

Just give him a minute to let wine and pouting work its way up.

"............"

Date: 2006-10-27 07:02 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
There is a moment of pure disbelief. Blue eyes blink.

"You fainted?"

Her manly boyfriend? Fainted? Are you for real?

Date: 2006-10-27 07:03 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
There is pouting now! Pouting even though he's secretly psyched she thinks he's manly!

"It was really gross! Tris pulled Loo out and she was all bloody and I was standing right there and-- and--

".......Zuko screamed like a little girl!"

He is leaving out some key information, but he needs to restore his manliness, STAT!

Date: 2006-10-27 07:06 am (UTC)

Her brows are up.

There is disbelief all over her face.

Sokka POUTS.

"...Well, it's true."

Ish.

"......Okay, so Mel broke his hand first, but it still counts!"

From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
There is giggling now, and Paige just sighs and kisses her boyfriend a moment later to assauge his masculinity.

"Babies are pretty scary fresh from their mommas. Covered in goop."

She's allowing you your moment of ZOMG GORE. Embrace it!

Date: 2006-10-27 07:11 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
Sokka does not like being giggled at when he feels he is totally justified. His chin lifts to receive her kiss, but pouting has moved to sulking frown and his hands lace behind her back. "Yeah. Gross."

Scowl.

Date: 2006-10-27 07:18 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
Going to kiss that scowl right off your face now, Sokka. You are too drunk and happy to stay sulky. Not with kiss therapy applied.

Date: 2006-10-27 07:20 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
Well, kisses are good things. They're right up there with nieces, you know. In fact, in a few more minutes, they may actualy surpass nieces.

...Who's he kidding, they've totally surpassed kisses, and Sokka twists his fingers in Paige's shirt at her back and tugs her closer, eyes closing. Time to reassert his manliness!

Date: 2006-10-27 07:21 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
Reassert all you want. Paige is feeling happy, he's feeling happy, it's time for mutual happy. Maybe with naked involved.

Babies then to do that. Engineer feelings that help with the making of more babies.

Date: 2006-10-27 07:24 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
Naked is good. Naked engineering sounds uncomfortable. And Sokka is just tipsy enough to skip naked and go straight to uncomfortable, murmuring, "Remind me why we're not doin' the baby-making part yet...?" between kisses.

"Last Ah checked, Ah came from a culture where Ah'm considered way too young to breed," Paige replies as she gets more comfortable. That's why they only do the orgasmic fun that do not involve happy sperm going anywhere they shouldn't, Sokka.

Date: 2006-10-27 07:37 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
But the happy sperm are so-- happy! Don't make sad sperm, Paige! That's not fun at all.

But his arms go tighter around her and Sokka nuzzles at her jaw before lipping down her neck. His hickeys never stay long - she husks and they're gone forever - but he still likes seeing them there, as many as he can put on.

"Mmm... I guess that's okay." Ignoring that Sokka's just as reluctant to go all the way as she is, that's a very understanding remark!

From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
"You guess?" hse laughs a little, but there are hands in his hair, undoing his tie, getting it long and free between her fingers. "Oh, love..." She laughs a little, and then kisses him, enjoying the taste of wine on his mouth, before she lets him go to --

--well, let him do whatever he wants to her neck. Hickey away!

Date: 2006-10-29 07:31 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
"I guess," he confirms, grinning, but when she breaks away, he reaches up to combs fingers through her hair, cupping the back of her head, letting her taste the wine deep in his mouth.

"What would you name our kids?" he asks quietly, nuzzling at her neck with eyes closed.

Date: 2006-10-29 07:34 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
"I don't know," she murmurs. "Maybe after Daddy."

She'd start there anyway. That'd be the first thing she thought of.

Date: 2006-10-29 07:38 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
"...Yeah?" Sokka drops his head back to the pillow, head tilted slightly and blinking at her. His fingers curl and hair is played with.

Hopefully, Paige doesn't think she'll ever be allowed to cut it.

"What was his name?"

Date: 2006-10-29 07:41 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
"Thomas," Paige replies. "Thomas Zebulon Guthrie," she adds, and then laughs a little. The name's-- less then poetic, but hey, she's southern. It can't he helped.

Date: 2006-10-29 07:46 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
"...I can pronounce Thomas," he tells her helpfully. The other one is-- very strange. Pet, pet, pet. "What if it's a girl?"

This non-existent child of theirs.

Date: 2006-10-29 07:52 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
"Well, mama's name is Lucinda but I've never been fond of it -- and we just got a Louise delivered, so..." That'd be a little repetitive. "I'm not really sure."

He shifts a little beneath her, one hand going to her hip to guide them both to more comfortable lounging - but the other stays threaded in her hair. "Does everyone name their kids after family members where you're from?"

Since she seems to want to stick to her parents' names.

Date: 2006-10-29 07:57 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
"It's very common," Paige says as she looks over. "To honor our famlies with the same names. There's heritage and memory, and how we keep people alive... within out kin."

She tilts her head. "You don't do it?"

Date: 2006-10-29 08:00 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
"Uhm..." He grins a little, sheepish, and goes back to petting. "...It's kind of bad luck for my people. Like... if you name the baby after a living relative, the older one will... um... die."

But he pets! PETS!

"Supposedly! I'm sure it's crap, really."

Date: 2006-10-29 08:01 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
"Well, my papa's already dead, so he can't get any deader, Sokka," Paige points out logically. "But I can see how that'd be bad."

Date: 2006-10-29 08:03 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
"Well, then the baby would get all the bad luck he did in li-- ...I'm gonna stop talking, okay?"

Less talking, more kissing. Enough to kiss worries away and then dropping back down and getting arms around her.

"...I like Thomas."

Date: 2006-10-29 08:09 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notahick.livejournal.com
There's patting, and hair petting, but no eyerolling.

"Thomas is okay, but we can think of somethin' else. What would you name a baby?"

See, change of direction! BACK TO YOU SIR!

Date: 2006-10-29 08:12 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] notanoptimist.livejournal.com
HIM, O NO.

Not being a girl who thinks about these things often, Sokka frowns thoughtfully. "I dunno... boy or girl?"
