Apologies and Moderated Posting for New Entries

Feeling:: frustrated

As I'm sure a few of you members found out, our community had been subject to spam (of some of the worst sort) recently. I'm sure you're friends pages were bombarded with images and junk advertisements over the last few weeks.

For that, I personally am sorry.

In my defense, I thought I had set the notification setting to let me know when a new unmoderated post from non-members showed up on this account, but I received no notice in my email, till today. I have since then gone and deleted the inappropriate journal posts and reported them as either spam or violations of LJ terms of use. I have gone in and changed the community settings, and also beefed up the security here as well, in an attempt to stop any more of these problems.

So, for right now, as this is the only way I can see to stop unwanted posts:

ALL NEW ENTRIES WILL BE MODERATED,
till I am able to conference with the other maintainers of this community. (Due to the frequency of the more recent spam posts here, I'm having to act fast and proactively to stop this.)


-For any new posts to meet moderation requirements, they must be on topic/relevant to Avatar The Last Airbender(The Legend of Aang) or Avatar The Legend of Korra. Also refer to "The Rules" listed on The Manifest (User Info) page.

-Posts not related in some way to Sokka do not qualify as appropriate to this community. (Role Playing Communities recommendations that are Avatar related are fine.)

-No prior entries to today will be affected/deleted even if they don't meet the moderation requirements, but they will be in effect from now on.

-There will be no moderation regarding comments to entries, unless they become bombarded by spam as well. (Avatar willing, that doesn't happen!)

-These rules are subject to change, which you all will be notified at that time.



I will be honest, I've taken a step back from A:TLA and Livejournal for a while now, so I haven't paid much attention to this group. However, I was under the impression that we had some security to stop spam posts already in place, or I would not have been so complacent. I hope the new security measures will work, and the notification emails will be sent to me to let me know of new entries.

Of course, I welcome any members to express their concerns, comments, other suggestions on how to resolve this issue, (verbal floggings of myself and the other maintainers),etc.



I would really hope that aj_rayne, fichan, and romantias would contact me either through commenting here, or my old email, or the sokkas crew email. I really didn't want to make this decision on my own.

Feeling:: accomplished

I've decided to get cracking and finally rewrite the sequel like I've been threatening to. This still untitled fic is a sequel to Somewhere in Between and will focus on Sokka and Toph.

Comments and criticisms more than welcome.

Hi. My name is Alex and I'm new to this fandom and comm.  Thanks for the welcome to 2010 post or I wouldn't have found it.

Love Sokka and love writing him.  I've included a few links here. I've posted in other comm's so apologies if you've seen these before.    Feedback is greatly appreciated.

For fics that are multiparters I've linked to the most recent chapter which has links to all previous chapters.
Warnings: almost all my fics have adult content, whether violent or sexual in nature. All are almost exclusively yaoi as well.

Title: Volatile
NC 17  Pairing Sokka/Zuko
Summary: Zuko can't handle the gift given to him by the firebending masters.  Sokka's there to help.
Sounds serious but is actually a humor piece.
Chapter 7 Foment is the most recent.

Title: Basic
Right now R but will progress. Pairing Sokka/Zuko
Summary: Modern military AU. The boys go through basic training.  This is a more serious piece and will get darker.
Chapter 7 is the most recent

I know we've been pretty quiet lately, but hopefully we'll spark back up again in 2010. Share all your Sokka love here and tell your friends! Fics, fic recs, general Sokka thoughts, don't be afraid to share. We're gentle folk--for the most part.

As for me, I'm back to writing and hopefully I'll have something for you guys soon.

First of all: Mods, if this isn't allowed, go right ahead and delete it.


Otherwise... So, I'm always on the hunt for good Avatar fics of any pairing with various characterizations. Lately, I've been craving more Sokka fics that feature a side of him rarely shown during the series. I'm being attracted to smarter, sharper, darker, and/or more world-weary characterizations of Sokka.

Can anyone recommend for me some fics with Sokka written like this? Any pairing and rating is fine, though I do admit to preferring slash. He doesn't have to be incredibly dark, either; just not the goofy kid he's often portrayed as.

On a side note, any links for Jet/Sokka would make my day. ;3 They seem to be my favorite rare pairing, hands down.

avatar friending meme

Since luthien_26 and I haven't seen an Avatar friending meme before, we thought it might be cool to set up one. It's almost a year ago since Avatar ended and the fandom is still going strong, so we thought it'd be fun to get to know some fellow fans better.

Just click on either the banner or link to get the friending party started. =D

First Chappie Up!
by Supreme Fuzzler (renagrrl7)

The first chapter of my Quentin Tarantino-inspired and Sokka-centric modern AU fanfic "Dragons & Lotuses" is up; Sokka becomes a member of the family.

Title: Dragons & Lotuses
Link: Chapter 1
Genre: Modern AU
Pairings: Sokka/everybody, (eventual) Zuko/Katara
Rating: Starts at PG-13/T, but will probably move to R/M eventually
Description: Sokka is an undercover cop for the L.A.P.D., trying his best to break into the most notorious yakuza in the city — the White Lotus Society. While his plans have always been to take the yakuza down, will he eventually take his artificial oaths of loyalty to heart?

Lost in: : at my desk
Feeling:: contemplative
Listening to:: Flying High - Jem

 Title: 100 Days, 100 Drabbles
Chapter Title: Jet (058/100)
Author: catalyst283
Word count: 410 (I got really carried away XD)
Rating: PG (just implications)
Warnings: totally minor spoilers that cause you to have to stand on your head and squint to see them (meaning you could have not seen any of the recent episodes and totally not be spoiled at all)
Notes: This COMPLETELY did not come out the same way I started it. XP One character transformed into another, and by the time I was done I realized I was suddenly writing something set in season 3. XD

The main character (the main perspective) is Sokka, btw. ;3 (The character at the end can be one of two characters—the one at the beginning [of the drabble] or a different one that fits the description [written at the end of the drabble] during the middle of season 3) 

( Who would be free—everyone would be dead. )

Title: 100 Days, 100 Drabbles
Chapter Title: The Avatar Returns (051/100)
Author: catalyst283
Word count: 126
Rating: G
Warnings: none
Notes: I’ve decided that drabbles 51-100 will each be a drabble for each episode (or two-part episode) of Avatar. If you count this drabble for both episodes 1 and 2 (cause they’re really two parts of one “chapter”) and all the similar two-part episodes (The Desert/The Library, Siege of The North Part I and II, ect.), I’ll be able to almost get to the end of Avatar, maybe even to the last episode if I count all four of the last episodes of season 3 as the one big season finale, like they’re supposedly going to be in the show…

Also, just because I’m doing a drabble for an episode in season one or two does not mean I won’t connect it to the current episode(s). :3
