Tonight (March 17 2021) in Atlanta, at least eight workers are dead after a series of targeted shootings in massage spas. The shooting is the latest in escalating Anti-Asian hate crimes, which have increased nearly 150% over the past year alone.
Below are a few links to organizations to consider supporting, all of whom are fighting for the rights of AAPI, as always feel free to add on any (credible) links or updates:
Gofundme for the AAPI Community Fund
Stop AAPI Hate
Asian Americans Advancing Justice
Red Canary Song

[ID: coloured digital art of Sokka and Zuko against a dark red background. Sokka is sitting at a desk surrounded by books and papers, along with an empty tea cup and a discarded paper featuring a poorly drawn Appa. Zuko is standing behind Sokka, with his arms draped around Sokka’s shoulders and his cheek resting against Sokka’s head. One of Sokka’s hands is writing with a brush and the other is holding Zuko’s forearm. Zuko’s eyes are closed and his facial expression looks tired. His topknot with the fire lord headpiece is falling down, and he’s wearing a red short-sleeved robe with a waist sash. Sokka is wearing his usual water tribe tunic and wolf-tail. He has a single blue earring and a fond facial expression as he looks at the desk. End ID.]

Hello!
This is a blog designed to promote desi content and voices from the shows ATLA and LOK and from the comics.
To get your content, such as edits, fanart, fanfics, and gifs, on this blog, you can:
I. Tag us @desiatla
II. Use the tag #desiatla
III. Send a DM to this blog
IV. Send an ask!
An important thing to remember..do NOT erase a character’s pre-existing culture such as making katara desi or making any of the couples with asian and indigenous cultures have an indian wedding, etc. Although we want more desi content, it is not right to erase pre existing cultures in order to do so. ATLA and LOK provide rep for many cultures, and we need to respect that.
Also, I will be having mod applications if you would like to apply. More information will be coming.
It is nice to meet you all!

[ID: A three-panel comic featuring Zuko, Katara, Toph, and Azula from ATLA. They are all wearing modern clothing; Zuko wears a red sweater vest, Katara wears a flowy blue shirt, and Toph wears a green t-shirt with a frog on it and carries a white cane. Katara is also carrying a small white purse over one shoulder.
Panel 1: Zuko peers around a wall and extends a hand toward Katara, who stands beside him. Zuko says, “Quick, Katara, give me your flamethrower.” Katara asks, “My what?” Toph, who stands beside Katara, adds, “What are you talking about?”
Panel 2: Zuko looks over at Katara and Toph with a puzzled expression. He says, “Don’t you carry one in your purse?” Katara crosses her arms and gives Zuko an unimpressed look. She asks, “Have you ever met a human woman?”
Panel 3: Close-up on Zuko as he pulls out his phone. He asks over the phone, “Hey, do you have a flamethrower in your purse?” The image is split to show Azula answering Zuko’s call. She says, “Of course, I’m not an animal.” Azula does, in fact, have a flamethrower hanging over one shoulder as she says this. End ID.]
this was funnier in my head 😭

[ID: Comic featuring Toph, Suki, and Sokka from ATLA. They are all standing on the airship, watching Aang battle Ozai during the final battle.
Panel 1: Toph, Suki, and Sokka stand at the railing of the airship, watching the off-screen battle intently. Suki and Sokka grip the railing and look concerned; Toph’s face is expressionless/unreadable. Red and blue light shine upon them, representing the powers of Ozai and Aang respectively as they battle each other.
Panel 2: The red light (Ozai) starts overtaking the blue light (Aang). Suki sweats and Sokka’s eyes widen. Toph’s expression doesn’t change.
Panel 3: The red light appears to completely overwhelm the blue light. Both Suki and Sokka look taken aback, and Sokka is sweating.
Panel 4: The blue light suddenly resurges and takes over the red light entirely. Toph cheers, Suki grips her chest in relief, and Sokka fist-pumps and cries with joy.
After the comic in the reblog, there is a screenshot of @/otterbender’s tags, which read, “#the election”. End ID.]

Adding on as a brass (trombone) player: in my experience, our breathing exercises are pretty similar to woodwinds (though I welcome input from other brass players), but also some of the exercises I did dealt more with embouchure/“buzzing” than breathing. Like other brass/reed/wind instruments, you definitely need a lot of air to support your playing, especially with lower notes, and precise air control and articulation is essential to playing any fiddlier higher notes.
Either way, this makes me wonder if different “embouchures” produce different streams of fire. Would the intensity/speed/heat/pattern of the flames change depending on the mouth, tongue, and lip positions?
Also also: Constant practice with buzzing is essential to maintaining your endurance as a brass player, so lots of brass players I know like to run through their music by just “playing” on their mouthpieces in order to strengthen their embouchure.
So now I’m imagining Zuko carrying a little tsungi horn mouthpiece with him after he breaks out of the palace to travel with the Gaang. He can’t bring his entire tsungi horn with him, but just picture him sitting in a corner of the Western Air Temple quietly buzzing to himself to maintain his embouchure so he can play for Uncle Iroh again later. :’)
Ok, so in the Waterbending Scroll episode Iroh buys a tsungi horn and Zuko is surprised, but doesnt sound like, angry, just surprised “You bought a tsungi horn?” and later, as Iroh is arranging music night on the ship, Zuko admonishes “For the last time I am not playing the tsungi horn!” indicading Iroh has not only asked him to play the taungi horn a lot, but enough to be annoying, therefore… the logical conclusion: Zuko is a tsungi horn prodigy and Iroh is desperately trying to steer him toward a life of music.
