Some predictions for Double Life:
Scar is going to die while filming his intro or something by walking off a cliff or big hole.
Ren and BigB are going to be the first red lifers.
Joel is going to make a trap in his base and Etho is going to "disarm" it, bringing them to red.
Bdubs and Impulse are going to be the first two to be killed by red lifers.
Jimmy (when red) is going to be jumped while exploring or gathering food and get killed, making him and Tango be the second people off the series. Probably Joel and Etho kill him.
Pearl is going to kill Scott.
Someone is going to fall off Pearls tower.
why can I not just beam this fic into yall's brains??? why must I write it?
These are all good points for why you should vote Lloyd but I feel it will be amiss if we do not discuss Antigone a lil bit!
Here's a quick summary of Antigone for those of you who aren't familiar (of there are any inaccuracies pls let me know):
She's the daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta, so this take place right after that one (which I'm sure all of you are familiar with)
Her brother's agree to share the throne by swapping each year. Brother One decides that he isn't gonna give up the throne. Brother Two starts a civil war. They kill each other in a duel (as cursed by Oedipus to do) and Antigone's Uncle is now king.
Uncle gives B1 a nice respectful burial. He drags B2's corpse out of the city and declares that anyone who tries to bury him will be killed. (This is generally considered a Dick Move)
Antigone throws some dirt on B2. Her sister snitches on her. Uncle pulls her aside and says he'll cover for her this time but not to do it again.
Antigone does it again. In broad daylight. The hairs being her in before anyone else sees. Uncle says the same thing but he Really Means It This Time. Antigone says she will die on this hill. Uncle says aight, bet. Antigone calls him a pussy.
Antigone does it again. Uncle puts her in prison and sentences her to death.
Antigone is immured. (Buried alive, they put her in a stone box and walled up the exit)
The gods refuse to answer any prayers. A seer says it's because of the whole Antigone situation. Uncle tries to fix it by burying B2 and freeing Antigone.
Antigone is found to have hanged herself
90% of the characters then all kill themselves in an epic game of grief dominoes. Uncle is left to rule depressed and alone.
As we can see Antigone had many chances to Not Die but didn't take them because of her Fatal Flaws: Pride, Stubbornness and Loyalty.
While Antigone is Doomed, it is she who knowingly Doomed herself.
Lloyd is Doomed by a prophecy outside of his control. Everyone else's actions to delay the prophecy result in it happening sooner. As is the norm. Lloyd takes no actions to hasten, slow or avoid the prophecy because he's, like, eight. Besides asking his dad to please not destroy the world, of course (His dad is unable to do this as he is losing to the curse).
Lloyd never has a choice in the matter at any stage. He has to sacrifice these things each time and get up and keep going, even when he dies.
Lloyd's Fatal Flaws are: Loyalty, Selflessness and Stubbornness
I recognize that there can be debate over how to define tragedy, like Greek tragedies hardly all followed Aristotle's definition and those were in turn different from things like Shakespearean tragedy or modern definitions of "tragic character" but I think at the very least a tragic character should have a coherent arc, quality over quantity. A bunch of UNRELATED bad things happening to a character just because a show has gone on for a really long time isn't really telling a coherent tragic story. Especially when some of the bad things happening are literally repeats of each other. Like I haven't watched Ninjago but I keep hearing about how Lloyd had to kill his father 3 times, but I think reusing a "he has to kill his father" plot point over and over again while not having him die for real just to give each season a new plot is a lot less tragic than a more coherent narrative where someone just has to kill their father once and this ties into their overall character arc.
Very valid opinion
I made another :D
I don't realise it was a tripod
So you know how redcaps need to have their hats constantly soaked in fresh blood or they'll die right?
What if they were parasites on a Tarrasque or purple worm or some such?
A normally peaceful giant has recently been ravaging the countryside. Why is that giant so cranky? Because there's a redcap colony in his ear!
I'm very proud of her! She came out real nice. Her outfit was inspired by Kai's airbenders clothes in Korra.
And I also might have some Lore for this AU:
So Alya is a thief, in Ba Sing Se.
She wears a fox mask to hide her identity, adopting the persona of Rena Rouge when she does so. There are not many other airbenders in the city so she has to be careful not to bend much (or downplay her skill) in her civilian life.
In her civilian life Alya works in censorship for the Ba Sing Se newspapers. She does not like this job, and has gotten into trouble with The Dai Li because of her pushing for more truth to be seen by the public. She is one of the few people who actually know what is happening in Ba Sing Se.
Rena also allows her, and her band of thieves (we'll get to that later), to spread some of the information she has access to.
