Zuko in the “Ember Island Players” watching fake Katara and Jet kiss and realizing that’s both the guy who he stole food with and the asshole who attacked him in the tea shop

ATLA (zukka….) au where everything is mostly the same except that the phrase “friend of the Avatar” is a euphemism for being gay, a la the phrase friend of Dorothy

(the phrase started towards the start of the 100 year war because in this universe Avatar Roku was some flavor of gay, then Sozin canonically banned gay marriage after their situationship went downhill. so people had to be more subtle about communicating their identities, something something something, the phrase became semi-commonplace throughout the fire nation and later the earth kingdom. maybe it started even earlier because of bi queen kyoshi. who knows!)

miscommunication and self-discovery ensues throughout the events of ATLA:

early on into his banishment and search for the avatar, Zuko runs into someone who casually mentions that they’re a “friend of the Avatar” and he’s immediately like “THE AVATAR IS ALIVE? WHERE ARE THEY. TELL ME”

…he learns a new phrase that day! perhaps he didn’t even know gay people existed until that awkward encounter (bc sheltered fire nation royal.) maybe he does some self reflection at this point, or perhaps he puts off his sexuality crisis in favor of his avatar hunting mission. who’s to say?

(the next time he hears someone say they’re “a friend of the avatar” he asks if they’re gay or if they actually know the avatar. you know, just in case they actually do.

….and the next time after that, too.

but after that he catches on pretty quickly that, no, it’s REALLY just a turn of phrase, and he does not repeat the mistake again.)

+ early into the series events sokka runs into some confusion when he mentions to a stranger that he’s a friend of the avatar while aang isn’t around—

sokka: hey so uhh i’m actually a friend of the avatar… think i can get a discount for that??

kindly ally shopkeeper: oh! i love that for you!! you know, i have a cousin who’s gay, real swell guy. anyways about the discount—

book one sokka, canonically sexist and with perhaps a fragile masculinity: what wait a sec, IM NOT GAY??????

shopkeeper: oh that’s okay, you don’t have to explain yourself or put a label on it to me (:

(sokka does in fact get a discount.)

he walks back to katara who was waiting for him and overheard the whole conversation, and she says “you know, sokka, it’s fine if you like boys.” sokka responds as you’d expect he would at this time.

(some amount of time later, sokka comes up to katara and aang very nervously and says “hey guys. i think i might. um. be a friend of the Avatar.”

and aang, confused but enthusiastic, goes “aww buddy, we’re already friends!!!!”)

at some point they’re fighting Zuko and during a back-and-forth exchange, Sokka proclaims “i won’t let you hurt him, the Avatar is my friend!” or something to that effect

Zuko, who has learned from his past mistakes in misconstruing this phrase, says “love is love. but your sexuality will not stop me from capturing the Avatar”

#i have brainworms sorry. #zukka #atla #a:tla #avatar the last airbender #long post #god. sorry. #zuko as the edward elric meme: I See No Difference. Love Is Love #sorry if this makes light of the actual historical implication of the phrase #i am just here for a fun time

Has anyone else noted the parallels between the deaths of Admiral Zhao and Chin the Conqueror? Both proudly went to their deaths in the face of defeat by the Avatar when they could've easily saved themselves, but Zuko offered to help Zhao whereas Kyoshi was more like "LOL bye then"

Of course Iroh could never become Fire Lord, he doesn’t have a Z in his name

Aang: All life is sacred. I cannot, and will not, compromise my values. I mustn't take even just one life. Even if it's a monster's life, my philosophy – my culture's philosophy – is to avoid taking life at all costs. As much as you'll try to drill it in me, it's not who I am. I'm not going to kill the a single living creature, not even the Fire Lord.

Meanwhile, Sokka:

*Taps Zuko gently on his head*. That bad boy can fit so very much trauma.

Just as a heads up - if I do reblog anything about the Goncharov thing (a movie that does not actually exist) it’ll be tagged with #Goncharov Gaslight so that there is as little confusion about it as possible.

I find some of the artistry going into the meme beautiful and hilarious, but I also don’t want to fuck with anyone’s sense of reality past the point of a joke.

Edit: I have been informed #unreality is a preferred tag for such things, and will be sure to include that and the #tw unreality as well!

#goncharov #Goncharov Gaslight #unreality #tw unreality #this is not a ‘this move isn’t real’ meme #circa Eragon or the live action A:tLA #genuinely this movie did not exist #that said the analysis memes about it are 10:10

every time this post of mine starts getting spammed with likes and reblogs again I become increasingly concerned for the mental health of Tumblr users like guys this is from four months ago why does it keep randomly getting hundreds of notes every few weeks is it going that bad 😭
