what if Aang had Paul Atreides style visions of Katara before the iceberg? ☁️
[Image description: Three panels of the Avatar the Last Airbender characters Aang and Katara inspired by a scene in Dune (2021). The first panel is of Katara a young Inuit girl in a blue parka walking along a white snowy hill. The second is a close up shot of Aang a young East/Southeast Asian boy looking into the distance as he sees a vision of Katara. The last panel is Katara looking into the camera.]

Legends of the humanoids
Reptilian humanoids (6)
Azure Dragon – Meng Zhang, the blue divine sovereign who protects the East.
The Azure Dragon is one of the guardians of the four cardinal directions in traditional Chinese culture, and according to the Five Elements phylosophy (Wuxing: Ref), the Azure Dragon is a spirit animal of the East. The Azure dragon has been considered a auspicious sign since ancient times, and governs spring (January, February and March).
In the Taoist version of his name, he was known as the divine sovereign ‘Meng Zhang’ and was the founder of the Dragon Tribe (a tribe that lived in the Dragon Realm and respected freedom).
The guardians of the four cardinal directions is another name for the Four Gods (Four Symbols) in Chinese mythology. They are the Blue Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and the Black Tortoise (also called "Black Warrior").
Symbol of the five elements of the bagua, god of the four directions, genus of the divine sovereigns.
In Taoism, the Four Symbols have been assigned human identities and names. The Azure Dragon of the East is named ‘Meng Zhang’, the Vermilion Bird of the South is called ‘Ling Guang’, the White Tiger of the West is ‘Jian Bing’, and the Black Tortoise of the North ‘Zhi Ming’.
Astronomically, it corresponds to the Chinese constellations system, the Seven Eastern Mansions of the Twenty-Eight Mansions. The name derives from the seven eastern mansions (Horn, Neck, Root, Room, Heart, Tail and Winnowing Basket) being linked together to form the figure of a dragon.

Ray’s Candy Store, NYC
Tumblr media
I’m posting about Ray’s Candy Store today as it’s been in the news this week, but for unfortunate reasons, as the owner, 90 year old Ray Alvarez, was beaten in his own shop. The local legend suffered bruising to his face in the attack, but thankfully, police quickly apprehended the offenders. Ray is now back at work to the delight of the neighborhood!
Tumblr media
Ray’s is a fixture in the East Village, and as notorious eater of chili cheese dogs, we’ve frequented the place ever since we moved downtown.
As the name implies, Ray’s is known for its sweets and snacks, but savory noshes are available as well. His egg creams, soft serve and beignets are also rather famous...
Tumblr media
Ray runs the counter by himself, preferring to sell classic New York boiled dogs made in a crockput...
Tumblr media
The homemade chili is a meat and bean blend and the cheese is whiz...
Tumblr media
For $2.50, it’s better than any hot dog you can find on the street!
When and if you go, do try and spend some time inside the cramped counter and look around, as Ray’s has been there since 1974 and is filled with eclectic pieces of New York history.
RAY’S CANDY STORE
113 Avenue A
NY, NY 10009

💥Bashir Abu Al Tayyaar💥
(I love having weird obsessions over media like for example Dune because i come with a lot of inspiration for stuff like this. Would you like for me to expland on the fictional world of this character and find out more about this little work in progress thing i’ve been working on for the past few days that certainly needs heavy brainstorming??)
🏺Trivia
🏺Adapted from babylonian mythology, Nibiru is a real mythological story and planet that i’ve slightly changed for the sake of this fictional world. It’s now called Nybir’U.
🏺The planet (as adapted by me) now has a few well known cities and capitals, Anu’erit is Bashir’s hometown. Inspired by babylonian god of the sky Anu + erut (wells) as in Beirut. From Ancient Phoenician word. The planet has a couple of different kinds of political parties that rule different places on it, but it’s for the most part “democratic”. And by that i mean it’s democracy is heavily flawed and corrupted which is why a war started.
🏺Bashir means “bringer of good news” and Al Tayyaar means “pilot”, “flyer”, (father of the pilots)
🏺Character wise and personality wise he was inspired by Stilgar from Dune, but the pilot thing was my twist. I took inspiration from Titanfall pilots and Valkyrie from Apex legends for the armour and gear.
