Do you have any really specific and/or personal Zukka headcanons that you’d be okay with sharing? I eat up every hc you put into your drawings like they’re candy, I was wondering if you had any others :D :D
OH boii i sure have,,, nothing coherent is coming to mind atm so ill just expose my Extensive backstories of zukka bethrotal armbands that idk if i will find a way to sneak into art.
sokka’s armband for zuko is forged back at Piandao’s mansion, and it's one of the most fine stunning pieces of jewelry ever crafted. it’s not the usual southern ivory but metal, more similar to the armbands worn as an accessory in the fire nation. it’s made of intertwining bands of gold and black meteor metal, with patterns of waves and dragon scales that seem to ripple and move when the light catches on them just right. and the pendant is a traditional blue stone from the swt.
There are no particular engagement gifts traditions in the fn, so zuko goes on a deep dive into southern water tribe ones, asking sokka’s family and friends about jewelry making and learning to engrave over the course of several trips to the swt. He makes sokka’s armband with ivory from his own first (successful) solo hunt. i’m not sure abt the material of the pendant lmao maybe gold? but amber would also be cool methinks
as for the pendant engraving they display a unique single braincell moment (untrue i just want them to match). love the fact that both of them are sea savvy navigators, love to think that in their pining era they spent a lot of time watching the stars and showing each other the different constellations and navigation pointers of their nations, so in both of their armbands’ stones are depicted the constellation used to guide sailors back home, sokka engraving the swt’s one on zuko’s armband and vice versa.
if they were sun’s out guns out kinda guys before this only gets worse during the first weeks of their engagement. shirts are banned. everyone look at the bethrotal armbands NOW.

i was seeing those posts about a more greek-inspired captain marvel and as someone who has always!! wanted to see this, i finally did something about it. idk how to feel? it s a first draft type cus i really just wanted to get it out. this was just throwing things at a wall and seeing what sticks and the grecian inspiration is flimsy at best so if anyone has ideas please please let me know. also this is like my first original post? crazy stuff.

definitely not thinking about mhok bringing elements of day into his house (reading last twilight, planting jasmine) after he has brought elements of himself to days house (goldfish, slippers, his cooking)

I hadn’t really consciously thought about it as a whole before, but yeah, there’s a reason that all of my OCs are not native English speakers.
I gave Ockham (and to an extent Tamara) my frustration with the ubiquity of English and the expectation of proficiency in it, regardless of how many or which languages you speak, and that that inability is seen as a moral failing or reflection on your intelligence or competence as a person.
Roberts has the anger at strangers or acquaintances who try to sleuth out where you’re “really from” based on how you speak. Or try to start a conversation with “hey, do I hear an accent?” when 1) accent only means someone Other (because of course they don’t have an accent) and 2) no, and a lot of skill went into ensuring so.
And the Rubbery Barber Surgeon gets “words hard sometimes it’s a relief to have close people around who Understand, even when the words aren’t coming out of the brain right.”

my periodic table hot take is that "roentgenium" is a shitty name and the title "unununium" was objectively funnier and we should have kept that. i know this is not what this blog is for but nobody else in my life understands and i need to tell someone who Cares. bring back my babygirl UUU...
we as a society have disgraced regirock. maybe just make it Un though that would be fine
