idk if u have any opinions on this so feel free to ignore if u don’t! <3 ik we saw a firebender do a diagnostic scan on korra & on kuruk but other than that we haven’t seen any other firebending healing
what do u think firebending healing would like?? do u think it’d be exactly like waterbending healing?? or do u think it’d be different?? i’ve always wanted to see it and i’ve always wondered how it would work
i have so many opinions on this actually!!! i mean we know that skilled firebenders can bend preexisting heat as well as generating combustion reactions (ie, flame), so i see firebending healing as similar to waterbending in the sense that they're realigning heat thru qi paths in the body and restoring energy thru heat. i'm kind of gesturing to this abstractly because my knowledge of tcm is limited, but it's actually a more logical form of healing than waterbending healing to me, because it's grounded in actual healing methods and forms of medicine, rather than just being like "the water has magical properties that relieves burns" or whatever (which obv is nonetheless relevant thematically, but not very coherent scientifically afaik). i love the concept of zuko learning healing after the war, and practicing with katara (and aang!). i also just love the idea of firebending healing becoming more popularized in general to indicate the fire nation leaving the mentality of violence and domination behind, and instead embracing more traditionally communal values, healing the wounds their nation left on the world and one another through turning the tool they once used and solely valued as a weapon of mass destruction into a tool for comfort and warmth and life. it's the logical thematic extension of the point of "the firebending masters," and it's very beautiful and important to me to see firebending healing in lok, even if only sparingly.

sketchbook doodles!
I was waiting for the train and there was a grey, muddy, end-of-the-winter/no-spring-yet landscape.
But there was also last snow at the mountain valley, white mark at the horse head and white willow catkins :)

🌀Keeps Getting Better🌀
Don’t call it an era, but I sure have been inspired by other fandom authors lately! 😘
I’m so excited to bring you a new one-shot companion to @witchygirl99′s Best Day Ever, where we finally learn what Sango was talking about when she said she’s seen him naked before 👀 💙
Read ✨Keeps Getting Better✨ on ao3 now! 🌀
Once again part of my heavily delayed (and even more delayed due to unexpected travel) @inumothership Fleet Week 2023!
Preview below the cut! PS - @classysassy9791 this is the one you’ve been waiting for 😉
This wasn’t like before, they were stone cold sober tonight. She couldn’t run, not without the questions following. While panic rose again within her, her brooding brown eyes found his once more and stared conflictingly into them for a moment. Those oceanic indigo eyes were swirling with questions now, ones she really wasn’t prepared to answer.
“This was a mistake,” she finally answered remorsefully. “I should go.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, she rolled out of his grasp, reaching quickly down to gather her clothes, carelessly discarded and scattered about his floor. In that moment, she was determined to escape once again, despite knowing full well that there was no way to avoid the conversation that was coming. Not this time.
That’s when she felt his strong grasp around her wrist, lightly pulling her back towards him. A light gasp escaped her lips as she felt the warmth of his hand spread up to her chest. She stared back at him, wide brown eyes glistening with the tears she desperately wanted to hide.
“Wait, don’t go,” he pleaded with her. His mesmerizing blue eyes pierced into her the same way it did in her prosecco haze all those months ago. A pink flush broke on her face again, and she felt her resolve slowly melting away. She clutched the sheet closer to her heaving chest, afraid of giving into him again.
“Talk to me, Sango,” he begged, his voice full of concern now. “What’s going on?”
