«Her bark extinguished the candle flames. The light vanished, replaced by smoke. Yangchen’s features were blanked out in the darkness, and the hallway lamps outside cast her heavy silhouette in the frame of the entryway. It was like she had an alcove to herself already»

i find it so amazing how almost all the Avatar’s looks like the previous avatar’s spouse..
example, Kavik, Yangchen’s ‘lover’, looks very similar to Avatar Kuruk (the avatar after Yangchen)
Kuruk’s lover , Ummi , looks somewhat similar to Avatar Kyoshi (the avatar after Kuruk)
Avatar Kyoshi’s lover, Rangi, Looks a lot like Avatar Roku ( who is the avatar after Kyoshi)
Roku’s lover, Ta Min, looks very similar to Avatar Aang (the avatar after Roku)
and, last but not least, Avatar Korra has facial familiarities similar Katara, Aang’s lover
i love this so much!

Read the fucking Avatar novels
Written by F. C. Yee, they follow the adventures of the avatars 2 and 4 generations prior to aang, Kyoshi and Yangchen.
It's two duologies, as you may be able to infer.
They offer some incredible action, maturity beyond the shows, different takes on the role of the avatar, and are incredibly well written. Also have canonically queer characters and THEY'RE FUCKING AMAZING.
Legacy came out like a week ago and I think it may be the last novel, at least from Yee's writing, but these four books are up there with some of the best content Avatar has ever offered.
I always see people say they want to see more of past avatars, complaining about Korra losing that connection to her past lives, etc. Well HERE IT FUCKING IS. TWO STORIES ABOUT TWO AVATARS, ONE OF WHICH IS A FAN FAVORITE. It's so fucking frustrating. These books are so good I wanna cry.
Also don't be fooled. If you think Yangchen's gonna be similar to aang because she's an airbender you are sorely mistaken.
