I'm so looking forward to iroh and zuko properly talking and seeing irohs reaction to zuko being gay.

Like we all know he doesn't agree with the fire nation rn but how will he react?

Will he not support him cause sokkas a guy? Will he not support him because it's SOKKA? Will he accept him? Will he reveal he's known for years zuko was gay?

Especially with everything that happened with zhao, regarding to what jee said to bato on their date. (Which is a very understandable perspective, zuko just got out of this very sexually traumatising situation and almost immediately starts a relationship (his first relationship) with sokka, but then again it is a very unique situation)

One thing I love about some atla fics is how they portray the FNs thoughts on queerness, cause on one hand they were one of the only country's (I think) that treated men and women the same but then again it's also the fucking fire nation.

And I also think zukos whole canon arc can be very comparative to queerness,

His dads an asshole and after speaking out against him he throws him out, and zuko try's for 3 years to regain his father's love and acceptance, and then faced with the opportunity of regaining it takes it immediately regardless of who or what he may hurt (iroh, his own morals etc) but once he makes it back home realises how fucked up everything is and eventually confronts his dad and openly tells him he doesn't agree with him then runs aways.

I also wonder if iroh secretly knows jee is queer it doesn't seem that likely to me but it also is iroh so who knows.

<3

I do think Iroh’s reaction will be a big moment for not only the story but for Zuko’s character development. Right now, Zuko’s technically still a prisoner, holding himself there by assuming Iroh will not understand or judge him when in reality he’ll never know what his uncle is thinking until they TALK ABOUT IT. (Which the FN royal family is just sooo good at healthy communication I don’t understand why this is so hard for them lol?!)

I do agree that the suddenness of the relationship combined with the intensity from both zuko and Sokka is very alarming for people looking at it from the outside (I mean we all totally get it cause we were there but others are like uhhhh hmmmm ok this might be concerning) so I get them gossiping and wondering if this is truly real or what the fucks going on with those boys.

I love Zukos canon arc because there’s just so much about zukos story that can be relatable no matter who you are and I think that’s why he is a fan favorite (it doesn’t explain why we torture him the way we do but ehhhh it’s fine haha)

Hmmmmmm does iroh know Jees gay? Depends on how saucy those music nights got ;)

#HAHAHA DO SEE THE JEEROH JOKE SOCKS?!?! I hope you see it through all your House reblogging nonsense haha #Jk you obsess over your new blorbos I support you! #I love this ask thank you #I also love that canon gave us so much to work with but left it loose enough we could do what we wanted #like I’ve read the fire nation written so many different ways in fics it’s insane #And I love all the unique thoughts! #I will continue to flesh out the FN little by little as we progress #An azula pov (or someone from her squad) will be part of every new chapter until the end #She’s a coming haha #I don’t know if iroh knows Jee is gay #Or that jee is like one date away from hooking up with bato haha #Or that zuko is already kind of hooking up with sokka (not really but I mean they’re getting prettttttttty snuggly haha) #But yeah idk I’m excited this next chapter it is A LOT #& we will be SUPER CLOSE to getting some answers to your questions lol #Thanks for this cool ask these are my favorite asks #Sorry if you’ve sent me an ask lately and I haven’t responded I’m getting better at that I promise #I will say though that I don’t respond to asks if I genuinely don’t know what to say or if I feel I might come off too mean or rude. #So yeah sorry anyone who’s ask I didn’t respond #(I also forget them in drafts and then feel weird about posting it after it’s been a month so I’m sorrrryyyyyy…) #Ok phew this was a lot of tags sorry #monsieugrgraves #Leaving it all behind #LIAB #ITF #ask

Turtle Ducks ^^ Took my time to create a more detailed piece in the last couple of days! I recently rewatched Avatar and really enjoyed all the scenes where Zuko and Iroh were featured! It made me so nostalgic, so I decided to paint this as an homage to these awesome characters! Hope you like it :)

#Wow this is breathtaking #the details are incredible #the colors are so soft I love it

ara 💯 again 🗣️🗣️

i love the new update @ssreeder so i drew her again even if she barely appears

her and her wonderful crocodile tears

#I AM OBSESSED WITH THE WAY YOU DRAW HER AHHHHHH. #the crying one is just golden #her expression is so well done im in awe #Her snarky body language is so in character #im loving the different outfits haha #she’s so different in each one #SHE NEVER DID DO ANYTHING wrong ZUKO & SOKKA ARE HATERS #hahaha they both hate her so much #& she’s just making everything she does their problem haha #your art style is so amazing #The colors and expressions are incredible seriously #I love you love Ara and I get to see her character come to life with your art #Thank you this is so fun #& I got to write Ara this last chapter which was fun haha #thank you so much!!! #liab #leaving it all behind #fanfic art

[ssreeder]

#Omg this is so sweet #I love sokkas freckles #& the way you do colors is always incredible #Zukka

[ssreeder]

hi its me again 🗣️

coming soon with a Another ara idk why i am this obssesed with her

i thought she would have a much more Background character Outfit idk the way suki and Katara describe her as this fragile pretty girl also tried to make her look older then my og because like RIGHT. shes been there for a Long time

"she is more the type to get someone to kill themsleves" was the best line EVER

THE ONE THE ONLY THE ARAAAAAA!!!! dude I love that you love her because you really do her character justice. Her resting bitch faced is captured so well in your art and I love how dramatic you draw the difference in the short/long hair because I do feel like Ara was two different characters considering where she started and where she ended up.

#Hehehe I’m so glad you liked that line #If Ara had a character bio I feel that line would be somewhere on there #Special skills: will make any man want to kill himself after extended exposure #Ara actually gets some screen time next chapter haha #But I warn you any time Ara is in a scene expect shit to get complicated #She had a way about her… #Innocently walking around with a dripping can of gasoline like “idk why everywhere I go things are always on fire?” #*skips away with can of gasoline* #Seriously my fellow jet lover I’m loving your art #Seriously you’re so talented #I’m pretty sure I saw a notification of another Ara art form you…. #So I’m going to check it out!! #YOURE AMAZING JET APOLOGIST!! #Jet-apologistmybadhomies #LIAB #Leaving it all behind #ITF #fanfic art #ask

Zukos Meteor ☄️

In anticipation of the Shootingstar Season at the end of summer. 🧡

In my headcanon, these are national holidays that are dedicated to Firelord Zuko ever since the war is over.

Zuko gets to enjoy them every year, sometimes in seclusion, sometimes with Mai or the Gaang. And every year it’s a beautiful, natural spectacle.

I hope you like it! Please don’t use!

#This is beautiful!! #the colors are so rich and wonderful #wow the hair & the water is so cool

I love LIAB so much I’m on the second book and on the hunt for fan art send help

PS you’re amazing

Awww thank you so much!! YOU'RE AMAZING TOO!!!

I wish tumblr had a better system for tagging & searching but unfortunately it’s all kind of a mess. I’m also not very organized with my thoughts or tagging either so if you’re trying not to see spoilers I can’t promise that wont happen but I tagged all the LIAB fanart with #fanfic art (which was stupid and I should have organized it by book but honestly I never imagined people would care so I’m really sorry past me was so dumb lol)

thanks for the sweet ask I hope you continue to enjoy!!

#I never imagined people would make so much fan art #Seriously I’m fucking floored and I love all of you who created anything for LIAB #but yeah I’m an unorganized mess so… oops #Search fanfic art and see what happens #I did tag everything by book #So RIA is for Risking it all #& LIAB is the group tag #ITF is Into the Fire #But that includes all the asks and stuff so… idk how to filter I’m sorry #I hope you continue to enjoy the story!! #So many talented people draw fanart so I hope you enjoy it all!!! #LIAB #ask #Amitybliggt
