[motherkya]

You certainly do mean well, and as much as I would love to see my children again perhaps it's for the best that you think this through.

[He pulls back a little bit. No tears, Sokka, no tears. Gotta be strong like mom and dad.]

I have. I've been with her almost every step of the way. She'll be so surprised to see you.

[motherkya]

I want you to know that I'm so very proud of you both. [ Kya takes his face in her hands and brushes a kiss to his forehead. He can't be too old for that either! ]

I can't wait to see her.

Will... your father be there?

[angle_on_it]

[He shakes his head.] I don't think so. I'm sorry -- I know he would have wanted to see you. [Of course, he's tilted his chin up some because being told that she's proud of him is something of a dream of his.] Don't take this the wrong way, mom, but I'm kind of glad its you and not him.

[motherkya]

[ That brings an amused smile to her lips and laughter tumbling out. ] What makes you say that?

[angle_on_it]

[He laughs, too, but it's a bit nervous.] I think you're more forgiving. Not that dad's not, but... [Well, he worries more about Hakoda's disappointment. He doesn't see Kya being that way at all.]

[motherkya]

But... you're just worried your father might end up more disappointed than anything.

[ Kya nods, her expression now somber. There's a twinkle to her eyes still but she completely understands why Sokka feels how he does, why he's worrying. ]

After everything that's happened, Sokka, you have nothing to worry about. Everything will be all right, you'll see.

[angle_on_it]

[That's... really reassuring. He smiles, and this time it's an encouraging smile for his mother.] Yeah, you're right, it will be.

[He gives her a nudge with his elbow.] See, you answered your own worries there. You knew the answer all along.

[motherkya]

[ Kya blinks as what he said dawns on her. She's laughing again and wrapping her son up in a big hug. ]

I knew my mun was right about you. Sokka the Wise.

[angle_on_it]

[And he'll just nuzzle in close, feeling like he's a little kid again. Sokka lets out a long, cleansing breath.]

I've really missed you, mom. A lot. I'm glad we'll get to see you again.
