#IM CLEARING OUT MY INBOX

[kataraslove]

katara isn't sutble at all in her interest in aang i think zutaras have their blinders on if they can't see how much she was into him. its why i find that fandom so frusterating i've never seen a pairing that was so obvious and yet they act like it was one sided.. when katara was all into him since ep 1 to wanting to run off with him when he got banished. if that dont scream girl is gonna fall in love with main character i dont know what does.

in order to understand katara’s feelings for aang, you need to understand katara’s character at a fundamental level. unfortunately, many, many people in the fandom do not and refuse to understand. for an example, a common misconception is that katara crushed on jet because he was the tall, good-looking “bad boy” archetype. while she did have an instant infatuation for jet because he was tall and good-looking, he was also brave, charming, and heroic and a natural leader to her - all components that katara’s described about aang throughout the series.

“You’ve been training for this since the day we met. I've seen your progress. You're smart, brave, and strong enough.” Katara in Nightmares and Daydreams.

the depths of katara’s love for aang can be seen in the ways that she speaks about him:

“Aang is the bravest person I know!” (The Storm)

“Please don’t go, Aang. The world can’t afford to lose you to the Fire Nation. Neither can I.” (The Winter Solstice Part 2)

in the ways that she’s fiercely protective over him:

in the ways that she’s physically affectionate with him:

in the ways that she gets immensely happy when he acknowledges her power or calls her heroic:

in the ways that she cries when they’re apart:

and in the ways that she cries when they’re reunited:

or when he tells her how much she means to him:

I mean, after they get through a really emotionally charged moment, or overcome danger or death, just look at the way she looks at him. look at the way she hugs him.

only in the atla fandom will someone look you straight in the eye and say that character A kissing character B (after the characters literally had an implied cave kiss) on the cheek before they’re separated isn’t meant to be romantic, but rather maternal.

and okay, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt: it’s true that katara’s feelings were intended to be “ambiguous” up until the climax so that we don’t get any canon verbal confirmation that she was in love with aang. i am critical of that. but nothing in the narrative suggests that katara ever viewed aang as a brother or worse, as a son. katara herself does not admit to that when aang brings it up in the ember island players episode, even when she had time to state that she did view him as a brother or, at the very least, did not see him as a love interest.

if you believe that the ambiguity of katara’s feelings for aang is far too much for you to ship them, that’s fine by me. but at the same time I’ve seen people say that katara had feelings for haru just from one blush. or feelings for zuko from their conversation wherein they bonded over their mother’s deaths in crossroads of destiny. if the hug at the end of the southern raiders can be read as romantic by these same people, why not the many hugs, cheek kisses, face touches, and emotional reactions katara feels towards aang? i do have to believe that the reason why it’s so hard to view these as romantic for people is because aang does not look the part of the stereotypical romantic lead, ie he’s bald, younger than katara, and shorter than her.

Uhhh throw the ipre in an underwater city. I don't think you've listened to ethersea but all you need to know is damn those guys are in the ocean huh

“Get this!” Barry says, shaking the notes in his hand for enthusiastic emphasis. “With the soil samples we took-”

“And the magic readings we’ve gotten-” Lup interrupts, bouncing on her toes. 

“This world- this- version of the world- this- plane? Have we settled on nomenclature there? I-”

“It’s- you won’t believe this,” Lup interrupts again, taking Barry’s notes out of his hand. Davenport is very close to telling them to get on with it. His mustache is twitching with trying to be polite. Taako grins. “It’s dramatically older than ours. If they’re following a similar calendar pattern to the one back home, it would be- practically the year 3,000.” 

“Not much has changed, huh?” Taako says, peering down at the water. The Starblaster hums happily as he and Lucretia continue fabricating more wetsuits for the next excursion, and Magnus dangles his feet out the open door. 

“That’s the thing,” Barry says. “It looks like they didn’t live underwater even two hundred years ago, this is a recent development! And considering how much we’ve seen, they’ve adapted just fine! Isn’t that incredible?”

“Yeah,” Merle says, low and appreciative. “I could get used to a place like this. Dunno about the water pressure, but the sun, the sand, the ocean waves…” 

“The pressure is no joke,” Davenport agrees, ignoring the wistfulness coming off Merle like stink lines off gas station sushi. “I don’t know about taking the ship down there. We’ve determined it should still be completely sealed, but the pressure could crush her like a tin can between titanium ass cheeks, and we would be absolutely, terminally fucked.” 

“What a visual,” Taako murmurs, at the same time as Lup says “So true, Cap.” 

“Can you be terminally fucked?” Magnus opens his mouth, and says, with the breath that gives him life. 

“Absolutely,” Lucretia says, perking up. “In fact, there are a lot of ways-”

“Pin that tangent for later,” Capn’port says, beleaguered. 

“Like a butterfly, gone too soon, and for what?” Lup says, grinning devilishly. “I want to hear the infodump.”

“We will, I promise, if Lucretia will oblige,” Dav sighs. She looks sheepish, but amenable. “We just need to make proper contact before they come to us. We’ve already seen how bad it can go.” 

That sobers the crew a little. But they’re stupid, so it doesn’t last. 

“Is there a way you can’t die while fucking?” Magnus asks. Davenport groans. Lucretia considers this deeply. 

“I’m not sure,” she lands on. “Maybe some research-”

Everybody has to consider it now. 

“Poison? No…”

“Radiation…unlikely, but not impossible…”

“Motorcycle accident?” 

The IPRE think about this. 

“Listen,” Davenport says. They all look at him, sure he’s going to get them back on track, but- “I’m sure it could theoretically happen, and it certainly would end in death-”

Everyone has to laugh at that particular visual. 

“Barry, Lup, did you have more to report?” Dav pushes on. Can’t hold back the smile, though.

“Actually-” Barry pushes up his glasses. “You’re not going to believe this-”

so shes a singer, songwriter and guitarist and just super talented all round, her vocals are amazing, ahh shes in a band called boygenius which i rambled told you about remember, she has three great solo albums(my personal favourite probably being Home Video), her music videos are all so mesmerising (also if you catch me crying at the hot n heavy mv... no you didnt)(also technically a bg one but TRUE BLUE MV IS AGHHHHH!!!! i love it sm) and all the visuals of them are all so amazing and the songs are all such incredible storytelling and then she makes these mv's which just put even more depth and story into them and yeah its so incredible, shes also sapphic and yearns for women in a painfully relatable way, but also explores that in her music creating songs that just reflect sapphic experiences so well, shes also just yk the most beautiful woman ever

i need to have frat!carlos on his knees groveling bc after all that pushing and pulling, parading around with other people, arguing and getting back together he’s definitely the one who folds first (for the final time). and i wonder what would be the last straw for that to happen? like is it seeing reader with a guy that’s not max, with someone he obviously doesn’t like, maybe someone from the hockey team? or she’s going on dates with some guy seems happy, but carlos sees he hurts her and he has that “oh shit” moment. like “I’m a dick. this is what I’ve been doing to her.” so he’s there to comfort her and he’s begging for forgiveness, maybe not the same night because she’s sad and vulnerable but he’s at her apartment on his knees and willing to start all over again if she needs to, to build that trust between them.

i just need that man to beg with those pretty big brown eyes like 🥺

bro the idea of reader getting with the HOCKEY TEAM or just hanging around them i feel would annoy everyone in the chapter. like i think brothers would give carlos shit for it (bro u fucked up so bad she went to the hockey team). i think his oh shit moment is realizing that no one was really that down for him the way reader was. like he could have hook ups no problem but he notices that they dont feel the same. couldn't really say when his pride snaps and he starts to grovel but i guess we'll just have to wait and see

#a-nonnie #frat talks #frat carlos #im trying to clear out my inbox im so sorry ppl have sent these next couple of asks a while ago. im shit at answering them clearly

Starting to think computers are actually the work of a dark and twisted demonic force.

#trying to trouble shoot a pc problem and we've gotten to the point wherein i am considering just ignoring it and hoping it solves itself orz #everything i try just makes things worse!! #i cleared my site data instead of just the temporary files in firefox and now nothing loads so im restarting the damn pc #but its taking. FOREVER. which is always a great sign. if this doesn't fix the page load times (not even the original problem!) im going to #freak out. just completely. because now i have to fix two things tomorrow... i wanna go to bed i don't want to do tech support anymore #im just frustrated and doing things impulsively that are not very helpful. so now i have to sadly sign back into every website on earth #which is very slow and painful because SOMEONE is hogging all my disk #everyone stop hogging all my disk and let firefox load challenge difficulty level impossible #but hey. restarting it did make the pages actually load now. i started this post on my phone and am now editing it on my working pc -w-)b #i am going to have 500 security alerts in my inbox tomorrow lol. #snow blogging

Hello, I have a question about Mycheal's fears, that is, is he afraid of something besides loneliness? (I'm sorry if there's something wrong with the text, I'm just writing through a translator😅)

I've actually answered that here!

Since I receive repeated asks sometimes, I'll just direct the answers with links for newcomers ::-)! You can find a bunch of existing facts on the FAQs on the pinned blog post, though!

angry note for creon?

[[Name]],

What were you thinking talking to Woof? He's not your mentor. I am. You need help you talk to me, not him. He can barely stand, let alone talk, and you’re asking him for advice? It's a waste of time. Woof is Aurels mentor for a reason. I have no doubt about that. Any advice he gives you is surely meant to lead you to your death. I'm the only person you can trust here [[Name]] don't listen to anyone else. Do not let this happen again.
