I'm not. [He has a hard time picturing it. Aang is just a kid. He may be fourteen and while by the standards of their tribe, it would be the age he could prove himself a man, he can't escape that way of thinking. Sokka knows that he's a man now. And that for better or worse, his sister is a woman. And the thought of them together... well, it's weird. Oogies. That's how he'd describe it.
But he doesn't think it's wrong. Or bad. What was it he said when they left the South Pole together?
"Let's go save your boyfriend."
The thought of them one day marrying and having kids and one day Ikki being born? It was a nice thought. And it made home seem something that he wanted to get back to that much more. It's not Aang's intentions that bother him. And while Aang may be feeling a sense of loss that Sokka can so clearly understand, he knows that Aang has the security of knowing that his Katara is waiting for him. So no, his concern isn't for Aang and what he is trying or not trying to do.
It's his sister. The one who always wanted to make things right, no matter how hard or reckless it is. Except this time, she's not fixing something wrong that someone else did. It's not saving a town or changing someone's mind. She is the wrong one. And he knows it must be killing her to be like that. And that inevitably, she feels like she has to be the one to fix it.]

But you shouldn't be trying either.
