Aesthetic Moodboards // “Venus” by Sleeping at Last
At first, I thought you were a constellation. I made a map of your stars; then I had a revelation. You're as beautiful as endless. You're the universe I'm helpless in — an astronomer at my best when I throw away the measures.
When we grew up our shadows grew up too, but they’re just old ghosts that we grow attached to. The tragic flaw is that they hide the truth that you’re enough. You are enough.
You taught me the courage of stars before you left
How light carries on endlessly, even after death
With shortness of breath
You explained the infinite
And how rare and beautiful it is to even exist
The fact that Iroh never stops calling him Prince Zuko. Even when they’re begging on the street or camping in the wilderness, when Zuko is at his lowest, when he doesn’t even know where his destiny lies, when he feels like anything but royalty, Iroh never stops reminding him who he is. Never stops calling him Prince.

Yet I know, if I stepped aside, released the controls, you would open my eyes that somehow, all of this mess is just my attempt to know the worth of my life; made of precious metals.
And what’s the first thing I do after finishing finals? Indulge in a little meme redraw of my favorites. 💚💛
Honestly Aang is going to be right there with Toph for these mugshots. The guy went to prison and made friends with all the other prisoners like it was nothing! That and I’m sure whatever they did was probably Toph’s idea and worth it.
Happy CNY from @joishuhu and I!! We collaborated on speeding this since I recently finished watching ATLA for the first time and I'm really happy with how it came out!!!
We did each other's background ^^ Speedpaint under the cut!
I've been thinking a lot lately about how so many people miss the point of TSR completely. Like Katara did forgive Zuko because forgiveness is earned and no Katara didn't forgive Yon Rha because she can choose who to forgive/ who not to forgive and no Katara shouldn't have killed Yon Rha because the whole point of the episode is that you don't have to forgive someone to show them mercy. That's why Bryke insisting that Katara "forgave Yon Rha" after the fact is not only fucking stupid because she literally says something exactly to the contrary in the episode and it doesn't just remove her agency it removes the complicated moral theme
