[Sokka starts a little when Bucky grabs his hand but he quickly follows by shaking it right back. It's — weird. Somewhat similar to the Water Tribe custom of grasping forearms, but with a lot more distance. Sokka's initial feeling is that it's a lot less personal and meaningful, especially given what he was trying to impart to Bucky, but he's glad for it anyway. Now he knows an important gesture — and he won't make the same mistake again in the future.
Sokka takes the bag that Bucky offers and fills it with some cans, the strange shucking tool, and some breakfast leftovers he wraps in a napkin. He does try to bring a few items from the fridge with him, though Bucky's comment about perishables is smart, especially since Sokka has no idea how long he'll be on the road, so he opts to leave behind anything that might easily spoil. He doubles back to the room in which he woke up to find some shoes, since he now feels safe enough to do so, though he keeps his pajamas on because for all Sokka knows, that's just how people dress here.
Then he leaves without fanfare, ready to learn as much as possible about this place as possible. He plans to adopt a nomadic lifestyle similar to the one he currently lives in his world, until he finds his way back to everyone.
It lasts a grand total of forty minutes tops before Sokka is unceremoniously escorted back to the house by a fussy neighbor who was appalled to see him outside in his pajamas, on a school day, and with that haircut. Sokka tries to slip away, but she grabs his arm, leaving him with an uncomfortable decision between allowing himself to be dragged back to the house or threatening her with a boomerang. Neither of these are good choices — she's not violent, so she doesn't deserve a boomerang in her face, but also, Sokka is trying to accomplish something out here. He's learned a little in these forty minutes, but not enough to make any difference at all.
Ultimately, his desire to fit in long enough to learn more about this place wins out over his desire for freedom. He allows her to march him straight up to the door, which she pounds on, very loudly. When Bucky answers, she gives him an earful of all the wrongs that Sokka has committed by (1) existing, (2) having nice hair, and (3) being a general menace to society, which he wasn't! At all! He was just trying to explore! Sokka doesn't act chastised for her benefit; in fact, he gives her a look that makes it clear that he thinks she's less-than-intelligent, though he holds his tongue.
After she's done rambling, Sokka adds:]
There are a few of us. [He doesn't elaborate on what he means by this, though he hopes that Bucky gets what he's trying to say: they aren't the only ones who woke up in a strange place. Sokka has learned that much from his brief outing.] But sure, my hair is the problem.
[Sarcasm, because what is even happening at this point? Sokka has important things to do, and this is ridiculous.]
as discussed!
