Notes: I know how much you were looking forward to this drabble,
plushulala . I hope I didn’t fail miserably…:X (also, this drabble reminds me greatly of Hercules. If you’ve re-watched the movie lately, you’ll understand…and yet I haven’t even seen the movie in awhile…guess I have a good memory. XD)

Sokka’s Master
You told me you didn't know if you were worthy, but I believe that you are more worthy than any man I have ever trained.
They boast about their accomplishments, thinking I’ll be impressed. Casual smiles and prideful stances come immediately, boys and men alike hinting oh so subtly how much I’ll gain by taking them on, smirking to their friends about how they’ve got it in the bag. They have heard I am the best, and they are rooted in the belief that they deserve the best. They, after all, are skillful, confident, strong and willing.
But they are not worthy.
They do not understand that those skills do not define a warrior, cannot possibly see past the history driven image of a man with a sword. It is not courage or skill that defines a warrior.
It is his heart.
