I love seeing Seb's reaction to hearing people speak Romanian to him!!! He always looks so surprised and seems really happy ๐!! That's dedication too! Learning a new language because one of your favorite actors speaks it and you wanna impress them?! I applaud anyone who does that!!๐๐๐๐๐
Sebastian aka your grade A dork. Bonus:
Imagine this:
There's 2 girls. One is very famous and the other looks really cool but isn't very well known.
The famous girl goes around copying people's looks because she likes their style. But because she's famous, she tells the person who's look she's going to copy that they have to stop dressing like that until she finds a new person to copy.
The cool girl is walking around one day and the famous girl sees her. She decides that the cool girl is going to be her new style. So little miss famous goes up to the cool girl and says โI like your style.โ The cool girl assuming she's simply complimenting how she looks says โthank youโ. Famous says โI'm making your style my own. So you'll need to find a new one until I find one that's more interesting.โ Cool girl says โno. You can dress like me if you want but I'm gonna keep my style how it is.โ
Famous gets mad and tries to force cool girl to give up her style so she can have it for herself. โIt's MY style now! You have to find a different one so that it's just mine!โ Famous whines.
Cool girl rolls her eyes and says โHear me and hear me well! You can like my style and copy it all you want, I don't mind. In fact I'm flattered you like how I look enough to want to look the same. But I'm not going to stop being me just because you want to be the only me!โ
Let these thoughts I share with you give you the confidence to be yourself. And never let someone tell you to stop being yourself just because they want to be the only one like you.
Tori is one of the sweetest people I know. I wasn't there when the argument happened but I read everything afterwards as I am a part of the server in question. I know Tori would never disrespect someone for something like race or skin color. I don't blame anyone for the argument that happened but I do believe it could have been handled better. Please continue to show my girl the respect she deserves and gives to others.
If you need someone to blameโฆ Iโm ready to accept it.
(Y/n pov)
I can't believe it! It's almost ready! I'll finally have an avatar in a few days. Ever since Spider introduced me to Lo'ak, Kiri, Neteyam, and Tuk a few years ago all I've ever wanted was to be able to explore Pandora with them. So I asked Norm and Max if I could have an avatar, because there's only so much you can do while having to wear an exopack. Norm said it would take a while but he was able to do it. Spider is getting one too. He hates having to wear the mask. I'm happy we'll be able to explore Pandora together. But I'm even more happy that I'll get to hang out with Lo'ak now. Not that I'm not excited to hang out with his siblings but I've had a crush on Lo'ak for a while now. I'm not sure if he likes me back but I'm allowed to dream. He said he'd be here when I get my avatar. Just a few days and I'll get to see his world the way he does.
(Time skip)
Today's the day. Me and Spider get to use our avatars for the first time. I'm about to get into the link pod when I realize something. "Where are Lo'ak and the others?" I ask Spider. "Don't worry, your boyfriend is on his way." He says laughing. "He's not my boyfriend and you know it." Spider always teases me about Lo'ak like he, himself doesn't have a crush. "Maybe not. But I see the way you look at him." He says smirking. "Shut up. I see the way you look at Kiri ' Monkey boy '." His smirk fades. "Come on. It's time to get into the link pods." He's right. I just hope Lo'ak and the others didn't forget. Norm comes in and tells us to lay down. Once we were in the lid closes and the machine starts. I see a colorful swirling vortex. Avatar me, here I come.
(Lo'ak pov)
Damnit! We're running late to see y/n get her avatar. Spider's getting one too but I'm really excited to show y/n around my home. But Tuk wanted to wait for mom to finish the top she made for y/n. Yeah, my mom made Na'Vi clothes for y/n and Spider. Of course she hates humans after what happened years ago, but she really seems to like y/n and Spider. And Tuk wanted to give y/n the clothes so we had to wait. We finally made it to the lab and grabbed our masks. "Hey Max. Where's y/n and Spider?" He looked over at us but before he could say anything Kiri interrupted. "Can't wait to see your girlfriend huh?" She always teases me about y/n. "You're no different. I see how you look at Spider." Max breaks us up. "Calm down you two. They're getting into their link pods. They'll be here soon." I turn to glare at Kiri. Soon I hear footsteps. "Hey guys. You made it." It's Spider, he's in his avatar. "Hey bro, you look great. How do you feel?" I know Spider and y/n have been looking forward to this for a long time. "I feel amazing dude. No more masks, I don't have to strain my neck to look at you guys anymore, and I can make tsaheylu now. Maybe some day I'll tame an Ikran." I'm really happy for Spider. I wonder where y/n is though. "I was beginning to think you guys weren't coming." I look up to see y/n in her avatar. She's absolutely stunning. I've always thought she looked beautiful even as a human, but seeing her in this form, looking like one of my people, I've fallen in love with her all over again but even harder. "Lo'ak, is something wrong?" I realize I haven't said anything since she walked in. I've just been staring while my jaw is basically on the floor. "No, nothing's wrong." She smiles shyly at me. Tuk runs up to y/n. "Y/n, my mom made clothes for you and Spider. Will you put them on?" Y/n kneels down to Tuk's height. "Of course Tuk, thank you. I'll have to thank Neytiri later too. I'll go put them on." She takes the clothes from Tuk then her and Spider go to change. A few minutes later they come back. She looks like a goddess. I'm certain that not even Eywa could possibly be more beautiful than y/n looks right now. "You both look great." Neteyam says. "When we get to the village we'll have your guy's hair braided if you like." Kiri tells them mainly looking at Spider. I can't blame her though. I can't take my eyes off y/n. "Come on! I wanna show you around!" Tuk jumps up, grabbing y/n's hand pulling her out of the lab. "Let's go. Bye Max. Bye Norm." I can't wait to show y/n my world.
(Time skip. Y/n pov)
Today has been amazing. I got my avatar, I got the Na'Vi outfit Neytiri made for me, I got my hair done by some of the village girls, I got to explore with the Sully kids, and now I'm alone with Lo'ak. He said he wanted to take me somewhere. It's almost eclipse so it'll be dark soon. But I trust Lo'ak. He'd never let me get hurt. "Lo'ak, shouldn't we be heading back? I don't think your dad wants us out too late." He grabs my hand and looks into my eyes. "Trust me Sevin, it'll be alright. My dad knows where we're going. And I'll keep you safe." What a skxawng. Then again that would make me a skxawng for falling in love with him. "I trust you Lo'ak." I say sincerely. The sun has just set. "Look around Sevin." I look all around me. I've never seen anything like this. So many of the plants and creatures have a bioluminescent glow. "It's beautiful Lo'ak. And you get to see this everyday. I wish I could be a part of this. I can't believe humans almost destroyed all of this." I may not have been part of the great war seeing as I wasn't born yet, but I always felt a tiny bit sad that I was part of the species who almost destroyed something so incredible. "It's not your fault you know. You're not like them. You may be human but your heart lies with the Na'Vi." Lo'ak says. He always knows what to say to make me feel better. "Come on we're almost there." He drags me by the hand. Pretty soon we're at the tree of voices. "This is where you wanted to bring me?" I'm honestly shocked he'd bring me somewhere so sacred to his people. He nods. "Connect your Kuru to the tree." I grab it. Slowly bringing it to the tree, it connects. I hear the voices of those who have joined Eywa. All of a sudden everything seems different. Like I'm seeing things in a new light. It reminds me of a song I heard once while watching a movie with Lo'ak in the lab. I can't help but sing it softly right now. "All those days watching from the windows. All those years outside looking in. All that time never even knowing just how blind I've been." I disconnect my Kuru from the tree and look up at the stars. "Now I'm here blinking in the starlight. Now I'm here suddenly I see. Standing here, it's all so clear. I'm where I'm meant to be. And at last I see the light. And it's like the fog has lifted. And at last I see the light. And it's like the sky is new. And it's warm and real and bright. And the world has somehow shifted." I look over at Lo'ak. I know I should tell him how I feel. "All at once everything is different, now that I see you." He might not feel the same way but he deserves to know.
(Lo'ak pov)
I remember this song. She looked right at me for that last part though. Is that a sign? Even if it's not I should tell her how I feel. "All those days chasing down a daydream. All those years living in a blur. All that time never truly seeing things the way they were." I look into her eyes. "Now she's here shining in the starlight. Now she's here, suddenly I know. If she's here it's crystal clear. I'm where I'm meant to go." She leans in and sings with me. "And at last I see the light. And it's like the fog has lifted. And at last I see the light. And it's like the sky is new. And it's warm and real and bright. And the world has somehow shifted." Our foreheads are leaning against each other. I can feel her breath on my lips. "All at once everything is different now that I see you." She closes her eyes. "Now that I see you." I can't help myself. I cup her face in my hands and capture her lips with my own. I feel her hands on my neck as she kisses me back. I can't get enough of her, I've waited too long for this. She pulls away for a moment. I go to chase her lips again and she stops me. "I have to breathe skxawng." She says giggling. I swear I've never heard anything so beautiful. With a gentle whisper I breathe her name. "Y/n." I take a deep breath, preparing myself for the confession that has been building within me for so long. "I love you. I've loved you since the first day we met. And I will love you even after I've died." The world around me seemed to stop as I waited for her response, my heart pounding in my chest. Her face breaks into a radiant smile. "Lo'ak, I love you too. I've loved you since Spider introduced us in the lab years ago." I couldn't be happier right now. "Y/n will you allow me to court you? Will you be mine?"
(Y/n pov)
He actually wants to be with me? I'm so happy. "Yes Lo'ak. I'd love to be courted by you. I want to make the switch permanently so we can be together." He smiles. "I'll talk to my dad about you making the switch. I'm sure he'll allow it. Him and mom really like you." Hearing him say that makes me happy and gives me hope. I lean in and whisper to him. "I see you, Lo'ak." He looks at me. "I see you, y/n." He whispers back. And then he kisses me.
online communities are so strange because people slip away so easily. you can be on here for years, folding people you've never met into the fabric of your daily life, and then they disappear, leaving only ghost posts scattered across tumblr behind. or their blog stays dormant, for weeks, months, years, until you're only still following them because you remember that they love sunflowers or they were kind to you when they didn't have to be or the last thing they posted was sad and raw and you still worry about them sometimes.
and sometimes they come back when you least expect it, years later, even, and there's this sudden rush of relief like there you are, there you are, even though you barely knew each other.
there's a strange kind of love to it. i don't know you and i want to hold your hand across miles and time zones and oceans. i can still see the imprint of you in this community you left. you don't think anyone will notice or care when you're gone, but we notice and we care and we wish you well.
i hope you're all okay out there. i hope the sun is shining on your face and you are breathing deeply. i miss you.
Bucky: *paints Red Wing black and purple to not only fuck with Sam but to pay honor to the Wakandans for helping him and cause he misses being there*
Sam: โJAMES BUCHANAN BARNES!!! I SWEAR TO GOD!!!โ
Loki who was passing by: *sticks his head in the room* โWhich God?โ
Sam being sarcastic: โYou of course. Because no other God could possibly be worthy of my acknowledgement.โ
Loki who loves having the attention on him and doesn't understand that Sam is being sarcastic: *smirks and gives a firm nod* โAs it should be. Carry on.โ
He just woke up after being the Winter Soldier, a version of him that he HATES, and trying to kill everyone in sightโฆ and THE first thing he does is say โyour momโ and bully Steve for being small
And people wonder Bucky Barnes is my favorite character
I agree completely! Especially with the music thing. Neytiri singing the song cord was beautiful and I'd love to see something like that again, maybe from Kiri or even a new character. And new music for Avatar in general is good.
My wishlist of things I would like to see in the Avatar sequels (in no order and ignoring how unlikely they are):
Na'vi doing chill everyday things like cooking, sharing a meal, playing games, making art, weaving, etc.
more biomes and the Na'vi who live there (arctic, desert)
the Tulkun are people?? Are there any more sentient life forms on Pandora we should know about?
some screentime for minor characters from A1 (Max, Norm, Mo'at)
more Neytiri ๐ฅบ
small nod to the early script/the old survival guide and strange creatures like the Medusa or Slinger
new score. No more taking tracks from A1 and sticking them into the sequel. I need new music >:I
more songs sung in/by Na'vi
This lovely lady was made by a friend of mine today. She's available to do commissions. Check her out, I'll try to tag her in the comments. Show my girl some love. Thank you babes for this beautiful Avatar ๐ @hidden-snow
I got my baby girl Kiri as my screen saver and lock screen! Isn't she beautiful!๐๐
