Father Son Camping 👍

i saw a comment on this post saying zuko should have a youtube and i don’t have self restraint lmao

If Zuko did join the Gaang in Ba Sing Se, he's here to cheer on the boy bestie, the homiesexual.

On the one hand I feel like Lu Ten absolutely would buy Zuko a bunch of expensive stuffed animals to try to one up the GAang, but on the other hand I really need to resist the urge to give Zuko an army of stuffed animals.

Maria didn’t give Ellie a diva cup and new clothes and a new coat and trim her hair and warn her off the dangerous man she’s obviously bonded with and take her to the movies for us to sleep on her. She saw a feral orphan child and said ‘this kid needs to be MOTHERED’

imagine that video of a mother dog who keeps pulling the weird yellow feathered puppy (duckling) back into the bed

Ellie is a bit put off by Maria’s attentions at first, but as Maria gets bigger, and people are joking to her about ‘nesting’ and being a ‘mother hen’, Ellie’s like OH, she needs this. Its a little bit easier to let herself be taken care of then, becomes a way she can take care of what she’s starting to see as her little family, Joel and Tommy and Maria and the baby.

Joel getting a LITTLE jealous of how close Ellie and Maria get, like what are they talking about over there???? Why doesn’t she trust me to tell me about it??? Turns out there are some things it’s really hard to talk to your dad about, and how to act in front of your crush when you’re already the weird new kid is one of them.

Maria telling Ellie about how AWKWARD Tommy was when they first met/started liking each other, lol. Ellie will never let Tommy live it down

Do we have confirmation that they're related? Nope. Do they make a bunch of similar faces? Yes. *shrug*

its so funny how katara stays being the only person zuko doesn't yell at when they're rightfully mad at him.

zuko with everyone: 🤬😤😡🙄

zuko with katara: im sorry 🥺 thats something we have in common 😔 what can i do to make it up to you queen i waited outside your tent all night 😕

Okay I’ve seen aus with Jet going to the Boiling Rock after Ba Sing Se and aus where Zuko fights Azula and gets sent to the Boiling Rock, but, consider, both

They both get arrested and Zuko has to explain to Jet that yes, he’s a firebender, and yes he’s the prince of the fire nation, and yes he hunted the avatar across the whole world, but he’s totally good now and Jet has to process that he tried to recruit the literal fire prince into his gang

Zuko gets thrown into the cooler very regularly, almost as much as Jet gets put in solitary, because they rarely last more than ten minutes in the same room before Jet tries to start a brawl. After a while he’s not even angry, it’s just kinda boring in prison and Zuko fights good

Suki recognises Zuko immediately, but after she hears why he’s in prison and watches Jet almost throw him off a ledge several times, she decides to forgive him

Thus starts the weirdest friendship trio ever

They actually work really well together, because Suki supplies the group brain cell, Jet gives them terrible ideas, and Zuko carries them out

The other prisoners and some of the guards quickly recognise that the three most dangerous inmates are teenagers, and now that they’re working together, all they can do is pray. They all end up teaching each other fighting forms they know, and Suki discovers Zuko is a total avatar nerd and thinks Kyoshi was the best avatar since Wan (she approves of his assessment)

Suki plays the ‘you burned down my village’ card exactly once. Jet uses ‘you burned down Suki’s village’ almost daily to get Zuko to do things

Sokka arrives looking for his dad and spots Suki in the yard distracting a guard while Jet keeps watch and Zuko steals his keys. He thinks they’re actually planning a break out, but no, Jet just wanted to fuck with the guards and see if Zuko could melt metal

(They’ve tried escaping, but Suki usually stops them because Jet suggests tying all their blankets together, stealing a messenger hawk and training it to tie the rope to a rock across the boiling lake and climbing across that. Zuko, who has never had a plan beyond ‘break into the maximum security stronghold and go from there’, is 100% on board)

When Hakoda arrives and the other inmates warn him not to piss off the three teenage prisoners, he thinks they’re joking. They’re not. He reevaluates when he sees Jet start a riot in less than ten seconds, Suki kidnap the warden, and Zuko break the gondola lever and jump across a boiling lake

Sokka comes back from his fishing trip with four missing people and no fish

Bonus: Suki: “this is my boyfriend Sokka and his boyfriend Zuko and his boyfriend Jet”

I was just reading For Hearth and Home by Haicrecendo on a03 and I was thinking how amazing it would be for Firelord Zuko to offer a daycare within the palace so parents don’t have to worry about their young children and can pick them up after work. I just love Our Firelord.

I love this so much

Zuko likes to check in on them (re: procrastinate from paperwork) and inevitably ends up on the ground getting used as a jungle-gym

The kids aren't really young enough to remember Ozai, and the idea of a monarch is nebulous and far-off. To them, Zuko is just Some Guy in pretty robes and with a shiny headpiece, who they can easily bully into getting them more snacks and letting them go hang out in the royal gardens and see the turtle-ducks

The new staff are horrified. Everyone else just laughs and continues going about their business. Another day, another toddler drawing on their Fire Lord's face while he naps on the floor.

Bonus:

For that one anon who wanted to see Zuko Carrying Zi Se @hella1975

I bet Kanut and Iroh would constantly compete to be Zuko’s fav uncle once everyone meets and stuff lmao

good morning camp camp nation (it’s almost 2pm)
