Some Sokkla family headcannons because this ship has been stuck in my head for a good week
They live in the Southern Water Tribes (STW) and Sokka has eventually succeeded his father as chief.
They have two children: A son named Haku (Spirited away reference? I don't know what you're talking about...) and a daughter named Lykka.
Haku is a waterbender and Lykka a firebender.
Haku looks very similar to his father. Though, his eyes and facial expressions are all Azula'.
Lykka's skin is darker than Azula's but still a bit lighter than her father's. Her hair is black but wavy (same hair texture than Katara). Her eyes shape is round like Sokka but the colour is gold.
Azula's favorite cloth from the STW is the Amauti. I just know that she is the kind of mother who would carry her children everywhere with her until they can walk, so she would absolutely adore these.
Ironically for a man who loves his sleep, Sokka insisted to be the one who wake up when the kids were babies. He would only bring them to Azula if it was because they wanted to eat. Because of his responsabillities, especially at the beginning of his chiefhood, it was his moment to be able to solely focus on bonding with and taking care of his children. Plus, Azula wakes up very early in the morning, so it let her rest and sleep.
To no one's surprise, considering who their parents are, the siblings favorite pass time is to prank their uncle Zuzu when they see him. They are sillies in general.
Sokka insisted they learn, at least the basics of, weilding weapons. In case something happens and they can't rely on their bending. Haku can be frequently seen fighting or hunting with an ice-coated halberd. Lykka, on the other hand, preferred dual broadswords. Thing is, in good uncle fashion, Zuko taught her some fun tricks combining the swords and firebending. She once almost burned her hair and the house while juggling fire with the swords. Oops....
Sokka taught them a lot of manual skills in general. I just know it in my bones that, in a Modern AU, he would be the kind of dad to put a mechanical drill in his toddler's hands.
At each of the kid's first full moon, Sokka took them outside to present them to Yue. They're the only kids in the world that can brag about having the Moon Spirit as their godmother.

The life beneath my skin
bleeds out
from these new legs
and my heart
beats in the space entwined
by our fingers and palms
breathing
with the walls of this room;
It’s me and you—
your soul too willingly offered
and my neck chained
to a cage
built with a guise
of friendship
and the effacement
of an old regret;
Buried like a curse
our tell tale memory lurks
under floor boards
for the next generation
of naivety:
a still learning boy
and his soon to be
tragic misstep.
“The maple wood house and its magnolia tree” - AXI

I hc that Azula's favorite STW meal is sea prunes soup. Yes, it has a very acquired taste that she, honestly, doesn't really like that much. But it taste, it feels like home.
Back in the Fire Nation, she had access to the finest cuisine and the best chef, but, as tasty as it was and still is, it was really impersonal. It wasn't made by someone genuinely loving them but by someone doing it for a pay.
Yet, sea prunes soup comes on top. Because it was the first meal Gran-Gran made her and taught her to cook when she married Sokka. Because she also based her own recipe on the one Kya had written down in case she dies before being able to teach it to her daughter and future daughter in law. Because this is a meal she herself is going to teach to her children et her future children in law. And one day, they too will put their own spin on it and teach it to their loved ones.
Yes, the taste is nothing like what the princess was used to. But it taste like home, like family. And that's what matters.
