Quick question about your trans!katara AU, I’m gonna try and draw trans Sokka and Katara, what headcannons do you have about their scars?
I've been waiting for this question for a long time………
1-One of my baby Katara's most visible scars is one on her arm.
Like this image, the brown part would be the part where he has the big scar
2-I made a very simple drawing to show you all the scars on her body, pointing out each of the scars
Let's say that due to a very strong blow he received, she lost a tooth.
Only the tooth that is marked in red

5. Deaf Mai
Mostly this is all my thoughts about for Deaf Mai. For canon context it makes a lot of sense for her to be Deaf.
In summary: it's not uncommon for hearing parents of Deaf children to force them to take elocution lessons and learn how to "pass" for hearing, and not learn any sign language. Mai's parents forcing her to sit still and quiet could be because they don't want her to reveal to their fancy aristocrat friends that their perfect daughter is actually deaf and not following the conversation
A headcanon I love is that, when Zuko becomes Hard of Hearing and has a Vision Impairment due to the burn, he starts to learn sign language. For Mai, learning sign language as a teenager is an act of rebellion, standing up for herself and away from her parents, connecting with a culture she's been forced away from, and she and Zuko can reconnect and maybe develop their understanding of sign language together
I have many many sign language (and language) headcanons for the atla world and the only ones I've written about so far are in my recently published gift fic found here
8. Jetzukka+Izumi
Moth of course you immediately pick out one of the angstiest fics I have. You might remember me talking about it. Sticking it under a cut because of the angst
CW: imprisonment (extensive), transphobia (mentioned), racism (implied), parent-child disconnect, trans pregnancy (briefly), abandonment (unintentional), kidnapping (incorrectly assumed to be happening), general angst
Izumi is Jet and Zuko's bio kid before Zuko comes out as trans (even to himself). When Jet finds out Zuko is pregnant he immediately stops his intensive activist protest work, but not long after izumi is born he's arrested for something he did a couple years before
He's arrested alongside Katara, his co-conspirator, and because Katara is a trans woman and the prison system is how it is, Jet takes all the blame onto himself. When he made this decision, his lawyer was convinced Jet would not get prison time, but unfortunately he does.
Zuko is left as a young single parent, grappling with sudden abandonment and crippling gender dysphoria that he can't quite recognise
Katara tries to connect with Zuko, in an apology because she blames herself for Jet's imprisonment, but Zuko rejects her (probably aggressively). Katara is pissed, but she's invested at least partially in the welfare of Jet's kid (especially cause she knows how excited (and nervous) Jet was to be a dad), so she sends her brother over to Zuko's. Sokka is incredibly stubborn with a mother-hen instinct, and while he's pissed at Jet for almost getting Katara imprisoned, (not Jet's fault), he's not going to let a baby suffer because of it.
Sokka is also trans, and talking to him is how Zuko figures out his own gender, and the two grow closer
Zuko visits Jet only briefly in prison, but it reminded him too much of visiting his father, so they switched to writing letters. Jet gave Zuko permission to move on and date someone if the opportunity did arise, and while Zuko was sure it wouldn't happen, he finds himself falling for Sokka, who over the years becomes a second parent to Izumi.
Zuko/Sokka become officially partners when Izumi is 3
Zuko, being how he is, does not mention his gender change to Jet. Maybe he thinks he says something, maybe he implies it, maybe he's just scared of rejection, but Jet is not fully aware. Mostly Zuko writes to him about Izumi updates. He mentions Sokka briefly, that he's helping Zuko out with Izumi, and Jet is glad Katara's sent her brother over to help. He doesn't know they're dating
When Jet is released from prison, he wants to surprise Zuko, is so excited. Katara helps, giving him a lift home. She drives past the park, knowing Zuko and Sokka are there with Izumi, and Jet sees his kid in person for the first time, and he sees Sokka in the distance
But as they enter the park, Jet watches as a strange man he doesn't know suddenly approaches his kid, and Sokka is looking the other way and this man is taking his child and
Jet punches Zuko in the face
Anyway that's all I got, I am not convinced it'll ever be written so I'm happy to talk about it. Idea up for adoption
