kept thinking about the unstoppable force of this text post combined the power with parent-teacher conference expert, wang fire
Hc that the gaang have a monthly game night and whenever Zuko and Aang are on the same team they always lose cause they refuse to cheat (Aang is just too honest and couldn’t get away with it if he tried and Zuko is against it on principal because of honour or whatever)
Everyone else though will cheat like the point of the game is to see who can get away with it the longest. I’m talking secret hand gestures and code phrases and if I scratch my cheek it means this and they are all exceptionally good at it. Katara wasn’t on board at first, but all it took was Toph saying, “yeah you probably wouldn’t be very good at it anyway” to get her to play outside the rules. Sokka and Katara kick everyone’s ass when they play together cause Sokka’s tactical brain, Katara’s competitiveness, and their weird sibling intuition make them a fantastic cheating team
Long time, no see y’all
Please enjoy this long abandoned messy sketch, pose referenced from that meme photo that I can no longer find anywhere!
since art reqs are open and a quick search showed nothing, would you like to draw how you imagine Lu Ten to have looked like when he wasn’t in uniform? Totally cool if not!
it‘d be nice if he finally marched back home
context : he’s sitting in his room in nightgown, drinking tea and lending Zuko’s theatre scrolls to read. Maybe they found him somewhere in earth kingdom after the war. Perhaps he fought as a small group of resistance, hence bandages wrapped around his torso and some scars. I gave him slight spiky hair.
after going back to the palace, he continued to aid his cousin as a somewhat non official advisor, he’s still in-line for the throne (In case sth happens) then ofc he can go chill with Iroh whenever he wants.
taking from his father, he’s probably a lady’s guy (he gave me the impression of that????:D)
Luca reminded me of the camp camp trio so I had to draw this (also this is my first time posting to tumblr so hello)
Might draw them again lol idk
“Are you out of your mind?” Zuko rushed across the courtyard and bore down on Aang with an intense, almost palpable fury. “Do you know how badly you could’ve hurt her?”
“I was just…I didn’t mean to-“ Aang stammered.
“Fire is not a toy!” Zuko bellowed at him. He turned to Katara, examining her for injuries. “Are you okay?”
“I’m alright,” she assured him, her voice shaking. “I’m fine.” She was trembling visibly, and there were singe marks on her clothes, but she otherwise seemed unharmed. Zuko turned back to Aang, how was looking down at his feet in shame.
“What were you thinking?” Zuko demanded.
“I don’t know,” Aang mumbled, kicking at the ground. “I was…mad.”
“About what?” Zuko was absolutely bewildered. “What could Katara possibly have done that you thought it was a good idea to do that?”
“Nothing,” Aang admitted sullenly. He didn’t say anything after that. Zuko glowered at him, took a few deep breaths to quell his own anger.
“You’re going to clean this mess up,” he said gesturing to the torn up stones, dirt and cooling lava. “Then you’re going to do 100 fire squats. Then you’re going to work on your forms for an hour. And I don’t want to see so much as a curl of smoke out of you. You’re not responsible enough for fire. Understood?”
“What? That’s not-“ Aang’s protests died on his lips when he saw Zuko’s expression. He huffed, kicked at stone, and finally nodded.
“Get started,” Zuko ordered through clenched teeth. He turned back to Katara, who was watching the exchange. She was still shaking a bit. Zuko draped his arm protectively around her back and guided her away. He glanced back once more at Aang, and almost rolled his eyes when he saw the younger boy still moping at the ground. It was hard sometimes to reconcile the awesome might and eminence of the Avatar with the reality of Aang, the child.
“I’ll be back,” he warned Aang. “Have this mess cleaned up. And don’t even think about asking Toph to help.”
I know canonically, the Lava Fissure Incident takes place while Zuko and Sokka are rescuing Hakoda, but I wanted to have Zuko see and react to it. Personally, I think it was another accidentally accurate depiction of how unready Aang is to be the Avatar. And it is also another incident that the narrative decides not to call Aang out for, so the chances of him growing from it are...well, we all know how things turned out in LoK.
Ellie can have 2 girlfriends. As a treat.
the addition of ‘(not adopted)’ genuinely suckerpunched me and i laughed for 20 whole seconds. 9/10
-1532/10. touch grass
7/10. the colloquial onomatopoeia of ‘haha’ immediately juxtaposing with the simple sentence declarative of ‘i cried’ is a really interesting language choice by this writer that might symbolise-
you terrify me so i’m giving you 10/10 in a desperate attempt to appease you
im beating you with a stick. get all star OUT of my bookmarks. but you get some pity points for the rage spelling. 2/10
-3/10 too relatable
listen i really want to give you minus points but this made me laugh too much. oh you think im annoying?? imagine living here!!!!!!! i have to deal with this bitch 24/7!!! yowai mo!!! 5/10. you got those five points because the sheer balls it took to put that in the bookmark notes where the author can so easily see it is something i actively aspire to
short. precise. self-aware. therapeutic. coping brilliantly i might add. i hope this person is okay. 12/10
these two both knew exactly what they were here for. they came they saw they conquered. these were the only notes for both bookmarks and to that i applaud them. 10/10
from a business standpoint i should give you minus points for quitting the fic but i’m giving you 8/10 anyway just because this response is the most mentally stable thing we’ve seen in taob nation since kanna was still in the fic
10/10 a classic a staple of the cult. get in bitches we’re going feral
-4/10. zuko baby YES. you hate to see a malewife winning. homophobic
lose points for the john mulaney reference just because i like to make @boomerang109′s life unnecessarily difficult. 4/10
this is literally the funniest thing anyone has ever said. this ao3 user just came for zuko’s fucking throat and i can’t even be mad at them because they are 100% correct in everything they said ‘sad. pathetic. poor little meow meow. bitch of the fire nation’. 10000/10
heyyyyyy @enbies-and-felonies aha *bites lip*. fuck you too <3. the descriptive writing here gains you points despite the slander on my name. 5.69/10
my favorite ship dynamic is betrayal. not when they betray each other but when one or both of them turn against their cause, their principles and/or loved ones for the other. bonus points if the person they're abandoning everything for didn't remotely expect it. ultimate declaration of love. "you mean more to me than everything i ever believed in. i am more loyal to you than my conscience. i love you more than the thing i would die for."
LEADER TRIOOOO my hate-filled egotistical control freaks beloveds
