LITERALLY like i love fabian so much he’s SUCH a great character and like he hits sooooooo hard for me especially because- yes there are a fair amount of d20 characters w stories of immigration- iga in tuc 2, ricky from tuc, riz and pok’s conversation in fhsy- but i think fabian’s specific story of immigration hits so hard for me just because like,, we see how it cannot be separated from who he is as a character in every scene he’s in, in his every line. because like yes he’s rich but like it just kills me because like!! his parents DID give up everything to move to solace and raise him to have the best life he could!! like yeah they’re happy, but we clearly see that decision to immigrate to elmsville also was something that cost a lot to them.

his father, bill seacaster, apparently began as a poor kid on leviathan and built up everything he owns now through pure hard work, cunning, and grit. he worked so hard so of COURSE he is going to want his legacy to continue and his son to have every opportunity available to him. but we see that this choice costs him a life that he loved on the open seas. bill misses his glory days and goes back into the world of crime because he sees fabian and the bad kids and thinks of his life he left behind for fabian. hallerial is literally an alcoholic who’s days of heavy drinking line up EXACTLY with fabian’s early years and only stopped somewhere between fhfy and fhsy. like of course maybe it was a different reason that caused her to drink, but the timeline lines up exactly with fabian being born/ them moving to solace so until brennan states otherwise i have to assume that hallerial drank because she disliked/ was bored of elmsville.

and so of COURSE fabian is going to be a character literally obsessed with legacy, of course he’s going to shove down his personal feelings to become the man his father and mother always expected him to be. because when your parents give up what they wanted to do to raise you so you can live a life with more opportunity, it’s gonna weigh on you. you’ll be thankful of course but also there’s a sort of guilt that comes with it. the question of “can i become enough, can i be good enough to justify all that my parents’ gave up?”

and it’s like!!!! it fucks me up so much because you just Cannot Separate Fabian’s characterization from him being a first gen immigrant! you simply cannot imo!! once you understand that, his entire deal with his legacy clicks into place. and it’s hard because bill and hallerial are not villainized, because while i don’t think they’re good parents, they also aren’t exactly bad ones either. and it makes it complicated because most of the time parents aren’t bad on purpose, they’re flawed because of their own trauma and it ends up just coming through in their own parenting.

and if fabian had been a character whose parents were both originally from solace it would have been a totally different story! he still would have worried about legacy im sure, but he also wouldn’t have had it all riding on him because it would mean that bill and hallerial’s families would also both be in solace.

tldr: fabian is one of my favorite character’s of all time both because he genuinely kills every scene he’s in and also because of how central immigration is to his entire characterization.

@apple-scrumper‘s tags on this post about Zuko and Azula having the same vibes as Adaine and Aelwyn got me thinking about an a:tla au for fantasy high, and it spiralled out of control into this super long post. Enjoy!!

Adaine’s family are Fire Nation and are Important Advisors to the Fire Lord Kalvaxus. Adaine and Aelwyn have that sibling rivalry going HARD – Aelwyn has already mastered lightning-bending and Will Not Shut Up About It. Really, Adaine, it’s not that difficult, I don’t understand why you can’t do it? (Adaine punches her)

Adaine is invited to sit in on a war meeting and has a panic attack when she realises the evil things they’re all up to, embarrassing her parents. They send her on what they think is a futile quest to find the Avatar to regain her Honour. She is accompanied by Arthur Aguefort, another advisor to the Fire Lord but one who is... a problem, to say the least. Two birds with one stone for the Fire Nation!

Kristen is from the Northern Water Tribe and is a pretty powerful waterbender, with a focus on healing. Her parents are super involved in this weird bloodbending cult but she’s pretty sure it’s normal, right???

She also has some kind of connection to the Spirit World, which makes her extremely vulnerable to the weird end of days sacrifice Daybreak is doing to try and reopen the spirit world.

Fig lives in the Earth Kingdom in a town that’s been conquered by the Fire Nation and joins some other rebels pretty much as soon as she can walk. She’s sure she’s going to be an earthbender like her mom and kick some serious Fire Nation butt, but then it turns out she can firebend? Gilear’s not her dad? Her mom slept with someone from the Fire Nation??? How could she???

(It’s only when they visit the Fire Nation several shenanigans later and meet Ayda that she’s like.............okay I get it now.)

The Thistlesprings are metalbenders, and live in the same town as the Faeths. They adopted Gorgug from a village that was destroyed in a fire nation attack and aren’t super sure where his parents were from. Gorgug can’t bend, but he’s happy to be just a Guy with an axe helping out Fig and the other rebels.

UNTIL one time in the heat of battle his axe is knocked away from him and there’s a Fire Nation soldier going for an injured Fig and he doesn’t think, just reacts on instinct and his axe flies through the air and knocks the guy tf out. So seems like he is a metalbender after all? Cool!

He’s not super great at it yet, so he sticks with his axe while he’s learning, and mostly uses it to enhance his attacks by bending the axe head to hit a target more accurately.

Fabian is technically Water Tribe through his dad and Air Nomad through his mom but Bill and Hallerial have spent the past twenty years being a scourge of the seas to all the nations indiscriminately so they might have disowned him. He thinks he’s a non-bender like his dad and gets by with his sword and athletic ability.

It’s not until later in their adventures, after his dad dies and he has a brutal encounter with some of his ex-crewmates, that he visits one of the Air Nomad temples (which aren’t as destroyed in this au I guess lol) where his grandfather is an airbending monk teacher (for teens, ofc). Telemine teaches him to dance and helps him figure out he can airbend like his mom!

Like Gorgug, he mostly uses it to enhance his swordfighting ability rather than being a primary bender, but starts using his sheet to glide and do other airbending stuff while fighting!

Riz and Sklonda live in the lower ring of Ba Sing Se, and both of them are earthbenders. Sklonda works for the earthbender guards but on the side she’s trying to work out what’s going on with the Dai Li, which Pok was investigating before he died. (Riz thinks his dad was killed by the Fire Nation.)

Riz begins investigating the same thing without his mom knowing when his best friend/babysitter Penny Luckstone goes missing, presumed captured by the Fire Nation. His bending is this very precise form where he uses little rocks to go at high speeds like bullets and just fucking obliterate people, since in the middle of a crowded city there aren’t a tonne of places to practise with big rocks.

The story begins properly when the rebels get word that very important people from the Fire Nation are visiting a nearby town. Fig and Gorgug lie in wait to ambush them and capture them for leverage.

Before they can attack, however, a pirate ship swings into the harbour, led by Bill and Fabian Seacaster, and opens fire. They don’t care about politics, they just want that fancy Fire Nation shit.

The rebels (read: Fig) decide, fuck it, we’ll attack with the pirates, and then the Fire Nation crew waiting on the shore go to fight them and it’s all extremely chaotic.

Adaine is having a Very Bad Time. She hasn’t found the Avatar, she’s no better at firebending, Arthur Aguefort is So Much All The Time, and now she’s being attacked by pirates??? Her life sucks.

Fig, Gorgug and Fabian all end up in a standoff against her in the lower decks of the ship. Because it’s Adaine, she’s not going down without a fight, and she goes to blast the pirate-y looking dude with fire.

Except it’s not fire that comes rushing out. It’s air.

Oh shit.

She’s the Avatar.

Whilst she’s panicking about that, the rebel crew and Fabian agree that they need to get her away from the Fire Nation, and take her to Gorgug’s parent’s boat. Arthur Aguefort blows up the Fire Nation ship to let them get away and everyone thinks he died (spoiler: he didn’t)

Cue a series of insane shenanigans as Fig and Gorgug decide to adopt Adaine and take her around the world to learn other types of bending so she can restore balance to the world and kill her piece-of-shit abusive father (the Fire Lord, too, but the Abernants Are A Priority once Adaine warms up enough to them to talk about her parents).

Fabian helps them escape but doesn’t join them straight away. They keep running into each other in weird places until eventually they’re like do you... just want to come with us?? Fabian: No. (Yes.)

They save Kristen from this weird sacrifice thing whilst visiting the Northern Water Tribe, and she agrees to teach Adaine waterbending. She also helps her out with the spiritual side of being the Avatar.

Riz becomes Adaine’s earthbending teacher when they meet him in Ba Sing Se and help him figure out what the fuck is up the Dai Li.

Once the Abernants and the Fire Lord hear what happened, they send Aelwyn after Adaine and the gang to finish what her sister started, not realising she’s the avatar. An epic sister/sister rivalry and eventually redemption on the levels of Azula and Zuko begins.

Stray thoughts

The entire point of this long-ass post was for me to say that Jawbone is Uncle Iroh in this au. He Just Is.

Tracker is a Kyoshi warrior. Kristen still has some weird internalised sexism going on from being raised in this cult and is like, women shouldn't fight!! They’re too soft and pretty!! Tracker helps her learn to let go of that, and then also kisses her and sends her into a gay panic.

Kalina is a bloodbender working with the Dai Li and is DEFINITELY involved in Pok’s death.

The Hangman as a Sky Bison! Boggy as Momo! (Adaine picks him up in the Swamp)

This au is inherently funny to me bc Aang is a pacificist and struggles so much with whether or not to kill the Fire Lord, but if Adaine was the Avatar she would have absolutely no such qualms. Murder? Sign me up!

The idea of Adaine, the avatar, with command over all four elements, bridge to the spirit world, still just decking someone when she gets mad is also really fucking funny.

So she learns waterbending from Kristen, earthbending from Riz, airbending from Telemine, and firebending from Ayda. I think she learns firebending properly last - it turns out the reason she struggled with it so much is because her parents taught her it comes from anger and hatred, and she needed to find and learn love before she could use it properly.

Fabian gets the Zuko eye scar from being attacked by a firebender (Dayne) instead of it getting cut out.

Gorthalax is a Fire Nation commander who rebelled and fled to the Earth Kingdom where he met Sandralynn. He got recaptured which is why he wasn’t around in Fig’s life, but they eventually find him in prison and set him free.

Gilear is the ‘my cabbages!’ guy, but he sells yoghurt.

Gilear is the outlier in every relationship he's in.

Sandralynn went from Gilear to Gorthalax to Jawbone and (briefly Garthy)

Hallerial went from Bill Seacaster to Gilear.

And there was a possibility of Sklonda and Gilear and she was married to Pok and ended up with Gorthalax.

#fantasy high #fantasy high sophomore year #gilear faeth #hes a combo breaker #i fully stand by the idea #that hallerial knew she could never find a man like bill #so she went in the exact opposite direction #plus you need a bit of calm after 15+ years with CAPTAIN BILL SEACASTER!!!!

Things I want from Fantasy High Junior Year

1. More Sklonda! What is her relationship with Gorthalax like? Why did she leave the police force? What are her hopes? Dreams? What is her class?

2. Aelwyn going to therapy, getting better, finding a purpose and being a sister to Adaine. Also what happened between her leaving Fallinel with Gorthalax and her meeting up with Adaine again in the forest?

3. More Hallerial. What is her relationship with Gilear like? What are her dreams, hopes, etc. What is her class? What are her stats?

4. Ayda and Fig go on an actual date. Maybe they even go to prom together!

5. We find out what happened to Sandra Lynn. What is her past? How will she grow as a person?

6. Porter! What is up with Porter????

7. A Wedding arc would be insane. Idk who it'd be (Gilear and Hallerial seem the closest to the alter and the whole thing would be crazy. I could see Bill Seacaster coming up from hell to attend and cause chaos)

Things I need from Fantasy High Junior Year

Fig takes Ayda to prom.

Imagine Ayda getting to do this very teenage thing of picking an outfit and dancing with her gf.

And of course some epic battle would happen.

Penny trying to kiss Jawbone makes a lot of sense.

Not just from a "haha funny" place but like

An attractive person who meets your emotional needs and feels safe and nonthreatening, you might transfer that into romantic feelings.

Plus like, she lives with a ton of people, having someone give her their undivided attention would probably feel really romantic and special.

Adaine killing Angwyn is amazing for so many reasons

But here's one I just realized. Angwyn was going to use magic to "fix what was wrong" with her mind.

Adaine, a young woman with a mental illness, was basically going to be given a magical lobotomy.

And not only did this young woman with a mental illness kill her father, she did so with a spell made for her by an autistic woman.

Adaine and Ayda with their "different" and "abnormal" brains really fucked Angwyn's neurotypical, controlling, Joe Kennedy ass UP!

Penny is gonna tell Riz she has a boyfriend in the Baronies and he's gonna lose his shit.
