if atla was released today, conservatives would call it woke communist propaganda for suggesting that genocide is super uncool, and liberals would insist the show is pro colonization and pro war bc it shows zuko, a colonizer, being forgiven for his actions and becoming a hero and that's disgusting apologism.

on the latter point, people would also be bringing up imperial Japanese war crimes and saying oh you like zuko? so you support unit 731?? when you talk about atla, why don't you also talk about the rape of nanking?

I'm going to dox you for having a zuko profile. you clearly deserve it.

"but they totally hinted at zutara in the og series" NO! CEASE! STOP TALKING! that was a MAN and a WOMAN interacting with each other. you are no better than the crack shippers or the kataang shippers or anyone else ever.

I don't hate baseless ships. I am, in fact, a HUGE FAN of baseless ships. but the moment shippers (especially het shippers) start to pretend they're above everyone else because their ship talked to each other a few times, I lose my g-dang mind. your ship is not canon! that's fine! you need to learn to be fine with that just like everyone else.

am I inviting hate from the toxic zutara shippers? yes. hate away. at least I haven't been conditioned to find every minute interaction between opposite sex characters romantic because most modern writers put so little effort into heterosexual romantic build-up these days due to the fact that they know they can get away with it because people like you exist who cannot even begin to fathom any other reason as to why two opposite sex characters would be interacting in the first place. before you post your hate-fueled response, just remember you've been played by every lazy heterosexual writer who ever lived.

(btw this post is not for the regular ppl who ship zutara. y'all are chill. I love enemies to lovers. keep on making your little comics. this is for those folks out there who will not shut the hell up about it being "soooo much better than [any other ship ever]" and how it's "BaSiCaLly CaNoN." it's not. it's a silly ship. let it be silly and stop telling people to kill themselves.)

AND (toxic) KATAANG SHIPPERS. y'all ain't safe neither. I don't fuck with you, nor will I ever. honestly the concept of doing so has me a bit repulsed. just because your ship is canon doesn't mean everyone else's sucks. if you took even a second to get off your high horse, you'd have the perspective to see that a.) it's corny, b.) you're corny, and c.) you aren't the only people capable of forming an opinion. even in canon, your ship is goofy. LET IT BE GOOFY. STOP TELLING PEOPLE TO KILL THEMSELVES.

TLDR: ship wars are dumb. you're dumb. stop being dumb. Or, at the very least, stop being outwardly dumb. y'all have been consistently dumb for twenty years. we all know how the last hundred year war went. cut the bullshit before I travel across the world with my unlikely band of misfit friends and master all four disciplines of kicking your ass.

Fortnite, are you sure about this? Did you think it through?

its funny to me how zuko stans are complaining about him being ‘hated’ (when most of the ‘hate’ towards him is a result of the delusional takes from a good amount of his stans) when characters like aang and katara have been dragged through the mud for over a decade.

I’m a sokka goatee lover in a world of goatee haters

some little sketches and factoids for this pjo x atla au that’s been brewing in my brain for weeks now. lmk what other characters you want to see. part two

also i should mention my story for this is original but i was inspired by @jiilll and their au here as well as @ awww.nutts’ au on instagram who were both posting first and you should definitely check theirs out to <3

thank you for the support on my last post-- here's more from my AU which doesn't have a name, feel free to suggest a name, lol I'm bad with that.

zuko and aang after a fight with the Yuyan Archers, Zuko barely misses an arrow to the head, instead clipping the ribbon that hides his identity.

aang suspects Blue is the banished prince with a high bounty, whom he saw in a cell inside Admiral Zhao's ship at the Southern Water Tribes. Despite being fire nation, and quite unkind, Aang releases him from his shackles only for him to vanish when soldiers showed to recapture them both.

Katara, Sokka, Aang & Blue travel together to the Earth Kingdom. Unfortunately, Sokka is stupid.

in case u didnt see the last post, TLDR of what it is: Aang was told he was the avatar at 16, after the war has already begun, gets frozen in ice, Ozai ascends to Phoenix King, succeeds in his plan to take over the world, the Blue Spirit joins Aang first (identity still 'concealed', although Aang is 89% sure he knows who he is after a while), and now Aang must save what's left of the world.

FEAR

I love Aang’s relationship with literally everyone
