Me: Wow, The Netflix ATLA Was Better Than What I Expected. Indeed, It Felt Too Rushed, Probably Because

I don't think I'll ever be able to consume a media with siblings without thinking about her. also kinda sad tumblr fucked up my image quality

I do not consent to reposting or using my art for AI of any kind

This is exactly how “Nightmares and Daydreams” would have gone down if Zuko had joined the Gaang earlier

Existential crisis buddies for life

im sorry but ty lee and zuko as a friendship needs to be talked about more in this fandom 💔

[During The Beach]

Zuko: I'm going to get some air.

Ty Lee: There's air in here.

Zuko: I don't want your air!!!

i feel as if the atla fandom argues about a lot of meaningless shit but one of the biggest (and MOST inane) points of contention to me is that....katara didn't get a statue in lok. like. i could go on about how katara's presence in lok was way more meaningful than anyone else in the gaang appearing and how she was a steady solid presence for korra who had far more of an impact than just a quick punchy fight scene and was actually compassionate and skilled and her political presence sets SO much of legend of korra's worldbuilding up and how the fandom is really notorious for reducing katara to a poor helpless victim as much as possible because she had a complex and significant and emotional character arc that didn't always have the most "classic" #girlboss plot points but the truth is like. its a statue? its a fucking statue??? a fucking hunk of rock im sorry??? i could not care less about a piece of rock over a character's actual presence?

To the non-maikos it’s always: mai and zuko boring. mai and zuko no passion. maiko only based on logistics. people only like maiko bc it’s canon.

To me it’s: mai and zuko share a cultural background which helps them empathize with each other. mai and zuko have a deep understanding about how the other was raised. mai and zuko take comfort in each other because of that. mai and zuko fit like puzzle pieces. mai calm and is his peace. zuko passionate and brings out her inner fire. mai and zuko are each others safe spaces. mai and zuko both made mistakes during the war and need to grow from it. mai and zuko have Fire nation roots and therefore have experiences that help them envision a better nation. mai and zuko team.

So this is where we are now, huh?

We’re sending threats and stuff to the authors now? Like what are we, the Voltron or Stephen Universe fandom? Jesus Christ.

Sorry your “favorite character” that you fundamentally do not understand is not completely redeemed nor seen as the hero of a comic that is largely not focused on her. Grow up. Get your ass out of the mountain of OOC fanfics you’re reading, and go touch some grass. Stuff like this is pathetic, sad, and indicative of people with no real points to prove just getting angry and lashing out.

this duo needs to be talked about more i just know they were best friends

Headcanon that zuko taught lin his break dancing fighting style

“she’s not evil she’s traumatized” actually she’s both. women contain multitudes

I know the atla movie edits are going to EATTTT. Am paitiently waiting to see those political disagreements with Hamilton songs. AND DEAR THEODOSIA WITH ZUKO AND IZUMI AND AANG AND BUMI. And the fact we re going to have to wait.

[ Surrounded by Ozai Loyalists. ] Sokka: We need to do something to scare them off. Zuko: Good idea! Azula! Go down there and ask them on a date!
