Summary
The ‘thing’ in question is a roughly-cut stone, attached to a length of blue leather with a simple steel clasp. Zuko looks up at Sokka. “What is this?”
Sokka grins. “It’s a betrothal necklace!”
Zuko chokes on his own spit.
Or: five times Zuko catches Sokka with a betrothal necklace, and the one time he doesn’t.

Summary
Sokka heard that story before. Of course he did, the turning point of Zuko's destiny, the single bravest and most noble (or stupid) thing he's ever done. He retold the thoughts that went through his head back then, the repercussions... but he left out a single detail.
And it's that detail that changes everything.I need to see his soulmark. Sokka thinks, heart hammering in his chest.

not a lack of creativity, but rather a lack of time to think of an appropriate comeback by glowingshadows

Summary
And so the rest of Zuko’s bad luck from there was less to do with such emotional tragedies, and more to do with personal pride. For example, the situation with soulmates.
Now, when Zuko first got his words, he assumed that his soulmate was probably some sort of bee fanatic. That was what anyone else would have assumed before the fateful day of the 14th of December, 2007.
But then came the references. Oh the many references, and jokes. Zuko swore to himself that the next time someone asked him if he liked jazz, he would punch them in the face.
OR:
Everyone gets their soulmarks when they’re thirteen. When Zuko wakes up on his thirteenth birthday to a soulmark that almost completely covers his arm, he isn’t sure what to expect.
(Zuko’s take on “It’s the lack of creativity for me”. Can be read as a stand-alone, but reading the two together completes the experience!)

Summary
The point is, the concept was simple on the surface, but the people in Sokka’s life all had special and unique stories surrounding soulmates.
So of course Sokka would be the one stuck with only the word “Hi” tattooed on his arm.
In which Sokka overcompensates for his soulmate’s limited imagination in the greetings department (seriously? “Hi”?).

Failed step one.
