Fics like war's rough, buddy

“Huh. Yeah, I think that’s exactly what I was trying to say. You’re pretty good at listening.” It’s Zuko’s turn to laugh, but his version just sounds bitter. “Trust me, I’m not.” The amount of self-loathing in those four short syllables is enough to make Sokka wince, but it doesn’t seem like his place to say anything. Zuko did do some pretty fucked up shit, after all. Maybe the self-loathing is warranted. (after the events of The Phoenix King (S3E18), the two oldest members of the Gaang have a talk) (and yes, Sokka learns about Zuko’s scar)
