“The Eclipse Is Zutara Coded” WRONG. It’s Azutara Coded. It’s The Final Agni Kai. It’s Katara

some jily 7th year stuff cause we need more of them and i’m obsessed:

the marauders officially initiate lily into their nerdy group (this involves them ominously inviting her into their dorm like they’re some sort of cult) and showing her the marauders map and the invisibility cloak (she proceeds to have a full on existential crisis because she cannot believe the four idiots in front of her have such powerful objects in their possession) they also try and give her a nickname but she refuses (they ignore her)

lily practically lives in the boys dorm room. she sleeps in james’ bed most nights, and has become so accustomed to them all walking around half naked. she always wakes up when james goes to early quidditch practice, but she’s never annoyed about it, only giving him a kiss and telling him to kick butt on the field (she obviously then goes back to sleep afterwards) during the times james is up late or up early, lily will literally just sleep in his bed alone, something the marauders also get accustomed to quite quickly (one night sirius jumped into james’ bed cause he wanted some cuddles but was horrified to find lily there instead, it only took a couple of minutes before sirius wound up sleeping beside lily, an activity they would end up doing quite often, both of them just wanting a sibling that loves them)

lily is the biggest cheerleader for james at all of his quidditch games, painting cute little gryffindor coloured flags on her face and making banners. it gets to the big quidditch game at the end of the year and james is so nervous, but lily makes it her personal mission to get him a good breakfast, an early night in bed, and as calm as possible (it works cause it’s lily evans obviously) and every single time james wins (or loses) a game he will fly over to lily and give her a kiss

for james’ 17th birthday, lily decided she wants to throw the biggest party in hogwarts history for him. using her connections from all the houses, as well as her good graces with the teachers and excellent leadership (and bribery) skills, she creates a whole committee dedicated to throwing james the best party ever. the party has everything james loves, even his parents (lily got them to appear in the fireplace via the floo network so he could talk to them on his birthday) and nearly the whole school rocks up (because everyone loves james potter) at some point during the night james takes lily and hides out in the astronomy tower so they can have a moment alone. lily’s worried that it’s because james doesn’t like his party but james assures her that that’s not it, and even starts getting emotional, saying that no one’s ever cared for him like she does, and that even after everything, he feels like he doesn’t deserve her. lily ofc also gets emotional, and they both just sit there stargazing for the rest of the night, gushing about how much they love each other (and talk about all the embarrassing moments of the night)

OK NOW FOR SOME RAPID FIRE CAUSE I’M RAMBLING TOO MUCH:

- james is determined to get into marlene and mary’s good graces, so he takes them out for a day at hogesmade (it the most chaotic and hilarious thing ever, mary and marlene tease him mercilessly and make the whole experience torturous for james)

- when lily meets effie and monty for the first time, she is terrified out of her mind that they won’t like her and therefore james won’t like her anymore (effie and monty ofc love her, and turns out lily is shell shocked about how good looking monty, teasing james about it and saying how she might’ve picked the wrong potter)

- in the later half of 7th year when the war takes a turn, james takes it upon himself to do as much research on muggles as possible, wanting to be informed and not accidentally be prejudiced or arrogant in any way (lily has no idea he does this)

- james serenades lily on valentine’s day by singing ‘I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do’ by ABBA (sirius, remus, and peter are his backup dancers and mary and marlene are his backup singers)

- lily is the only one who knows about the marauders being animagus (she already knows about remus being a werewolf) and at first was really angry they did something so reckless but eventually came around and took it upon herself to cover their tracks as much as possible (because they’re way too obvious about their secret)

- james is lily’s date to petunia’s wedding (lily was dreading the entire night and james was determined to make it fun) and so they ended up extremely drunk, leaving early and crashing a muggle club where they danced right in the middle of together

THERE’S SO MANY MORE I COULD DO BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME GAHHHHH

AHHH this is so real. and we also have other characters like emmeline vance (my baby) and emma vanity and more who arguable got mentioned more than like evan rosier AND NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THEM. yes james and sirius are my fav besties BUT MARLENE AND LILY FRIENDSHIP IS RIGHT THERE ITS RIGHT THERE. and i cant even begin to mention the black sisters (heavy on narcissa) CAUSE THEYRE TEN TIMES AS INTERESTING AS evan rosier (mentioned like twice), barty crouch jr (his only personality trait is that hes a badboy and doesnt like his father) and (i will get attacked for this but whatever) regulus black, a canonical supporter of voldemort who only turned his back when kreacher was like. in danger.

can we talk about how the valkyries/marauders era girls are so just mischaracterized?

like here we have james, the funny, smart, prankster father of harry potter. might be immature sometimes. "the sun" "golden retriever" sirius: the bad-boy, a black sheep, sarcastic and snarky. remus, the smart, studious, gentle werewolf. and even peter: sometimes misunderstood, insecure, funny friend.

how about the girls?

lily is harry's know it all perfect mom. either james' gf or jegulus's enemy. marlene is reduced to a sirius variant. mary: popular black girl. shipped with either lily or marlene.

now, despite the pantheon/skittles having little mention in the books (excluding regulus), evan, barty, and reg all have tangible fanmade personalities. the girls?

dorcas: smart black girl. marlene's girlfriend. pandora: evan's spacey twin sister.

it's very strange how nobody creates content about friendships between the girls. there's lots about remus and lily being friends, sirius and marlene, etc. but the girls are almost only talked about in shipping, whether it's with each other or with a guy.

this is NOT saying to stop posting about dorlene or jily or pandalily etc. this is me asking you to ask yourself: why don't you care about marlene and mary being friends as much as james and sirius' friendship?

idk guys am i delusional?

I find matching Patronuses more romantic than having the exactly same one.

That’s why James had a stag and Lily a doe.

They’re the truest definition of love.

Concept: Fire Lords traditionally dress like the stages of the sun to match their reign.

When Zuko is first crowned, he dresses in the colours of dawn. Bright yellows and pinks and even purples. He starts to wear more traditional crimson-and-gold robes after a few years, the colours of midday when Agni is at his strongest. And towards the end of his reign, when he's getting ready to pass the crown onto Izumi, he starts dressing like the setting sun.

i genuinely think that the shift from the old marauders to the new one where every straight ship even the canon and most important one (i.e jily) and that whole jegulus/all the other made up ships that make no sense come from a place of fetish. yall LOVE to turn characters into little stereotypes and that whole constant obsession w homosexuality is not helping any cause. most of view view homosexual/queer relationships as more angsty or interesting in a way that’s so strange to me. ships could follow the most standard plot line but still be considered angsty cus they’re queer and why is that? this fandom has taken such a strange turn.

you are making sexuality such a strong and central point in a character importance more than any other trait of their character. and those head canons just end up erasing the most important things about these characters

james potter was a strong and good man. he developed from his arrogant teenage self into a good man fighting for a good cause. but now you made him into a twink that is in love with a death eater/ a member of the family that abused his best friend all his life. james and sirius’s relationship was a central point of their characters. and james’s love for lily is a central point as well??????

sirius being turned into a overly feminine gay drama queen, even though what WAS important about him was his loyalty his strength and his honor??? but all of that was forgotten. HE CAN BE GAY WITHOUT ERASING HIS ORIGINAL PERSONALITY. stop painting him into a stereotype of a gay man.

regulus black is getting the recognition that is to be given to sirius. his character was not some brave rebel vigilante that fought for justice. he was a pureblood supremacist.he was a deatheater. yes he is important to the story but he was not what you made him.

lily evans is the most important character of the series. she’s the reason it exists. her and james’s love is the center point. but it was pushed away by you people to focus on your strange fetishized view of gay men. this MAJOR character whose love for her son and husband literally MADE the story got cast away as a secondary character.

important topics like sirius’sabusive family, lily and james’s courage and love….was remplaced by ridiculized view of characters

make characters gay cus we don’t know anything about them yes okay that’s why wolf star was a major part of the fandom. but the complete shift of every single characters identity is just bullshit.

the royal family needs to stop changing the colors of their fires. wtf is this

Lily Evans had never had a large party on her birthday before. She had always had just a couple friends over at her house, or once she started hogwarts, in her dorm. The first few years at school were short little celebrations with her different friends, since they couldn't get along together. But this year was just one party, a big one, organised by Mary and James, well known for their ability to plan a great party with large crowds and manage to keep those crowds happy.

She donned her best outfit, got Emmeline to do her makeup, Marlene to do her nails, and Mary with the hardest job of blocking Remus Lupin from the record player in the common room.

And as people began to gather, Lily went downstairs to join them. Sirius and Peter had snuck to Hogsmeade to get some booze, under the conditions they made sure it was only people over 16 drinking it. Now they stood like guards, arms folding with sunglasses over their eyes and makeshift badges as they teared down at a poor ravenclaw from 4th year that tried to grab a bottle.

Lily made her way over grabbing a drink before moving to the record player in the corner.

Mary was stood, glaring up at Remus, "You aren't fucking touching this! I will stand here the entire night if I have to. We refuse to lieten to a single Zeppelin song!"

"Remus!" Lily shouted, "Get away from the music! We made a deal, my choice on my birthday!"

Remus groaned, "Mary's just been playing constant abba though!"

Lily grinned, "My birthday, my choice."

Remus glared at her before starting to smirk and he quickly grabbed her drink before speeding away.

"You fucker!" She yelled after him.

"Happy birthday, Lils!"

Mary grabbed her into a tight hug, "What that twat said."

She hugged her back, "Ugh I love you, thank you for this."

"Why are you sweet? Hey, you should go get another drink before it's all gone. I'll protect the music for you."

Lily hugged her again before going back to the drink table to find it bare.

"We're gonna go get some more but James has disappeared and he's got the cloak and map." Peter said, seemingly appearing behind her out of nowhere.

"He's a terrible boyfriend", Sirius sighed, shaking their head.

Lily rolled her eyes, as Marlene bounded over.

"He's just gone to grab the slytherins, prat."

Sirius clasped their hand to their heart, "blondes are so mean... oh sorry, I mean gingers."

Lily's eyes widened and she stared at Marlene in shock, "What? Marlene, what?"

Marlene stuck a finger up at Sirius before disappearing into the crowd.

"Marlene! You're ginger too?!"

"What's all the yelling about?" James said, map and cloak in one hand just before Peter grabbed them both and ran off with Sirius.

"Marlene's ginger!"

James froze, "you're not meant to know that. She got us all to promise to never tell you. Who told you? It was Sirius wasn't it? They're terrible at keeping secrets."

"Why would she dye her hair? What's wrong with being ginger!"

James shrugged, "I dont know! She's done it since she was like 9!"

Dorcas leaned over, "Her mum got her to do it as a kid and then she said she keeps doing it because 'ginger is much less rock n roll'... also hi lily, happy birthday."

"Fucker." Lily said.

"Woah Lily, Cas was just wishing you a happy birthday, no need for swearing." Regulus slightly smiled.

Lily squinted at him in annoyance before reaching to hug him.

Pandora nudged Regulus, "He got you a gift, but he's so shy he asked me to give it to you instead."

"That's not what I said! I'm not shy!" Regulus said, nudging her back as she gave the wrapped present to Lily.

James bounded over her shoulder excitedly.

Inside was a vinyl of the single song, dancing queen.

Regulus put his hands in his pockets, "I thought it'd be a good fit for this party, and I am willing to dance."

Lily grinned, immediately running over to Mary to put it on.

The intro spinned into the air and James pulled Lily up onto a desk. They danced and danced. Others clambering up on the desks after them. Dorcas and Marlene dancing while making out, Pandora with Emmeline and Sybil, Mary leaving her station to join in the dance, Peter and Sirius back from their mission and immediately jumping up on the desks, and Regulus following through his promise to join Lily and James in the dance.

And Remus, with a clear shot of the record player with no one guarding it, didn't move from where he stood, and let abba sing out, just for Lily.

You are the dancing queen

Digging the dancing queen

thats true. i dont really know about the timing of the comics, but i think that aang and katara have both greatly matured since the show had ended and are probably ready to be in a relationship. idk if it's the younger/newer/social media generation but when i was 12/13/14, the age difference wasn't a big deal and i knew 12 and 14 year olds in relationships, so maybe i'm just not as affected

sorry to all the kataang shippers out there but kataang genuinely skeeves me out like

hes 12. shes 14. thats so weird to me. thats so Gross to me. thats a sixth grader, a kid brand new to middle school or even still in elementary school depending on location/school district, and a freshman in highschool.

and dont even say uM aCtUaLly HeS oNe HuNdReD aNd TwElVe i do not give the faintest fuck. he has the experience, mentality, physicality, all that shit, of a twelve year old. hes twelve. thats weird, thats gross, i dint like it

no judgment to kataang shippers though yall seem neato
