Read "Suki, Alone". Liked it in general. But can they please, please hire someone who knows both the show's actual events and how to follow through on a character arc? Because guys. Guys. That comic is not implying about Suki what they meant it to be implying, and all because of literally one line.

So like. From a writer's standpoint:

What they meant to do: show Suki as a community-oriented person who cares for her people, and believes in everyone succeeding together.

As opposed to (spoilers): the thief girl they set her up in contrast with, who's pretty upfront and consistent on primarily looking out for herself. She betrays Suki for one (1) corn chip to improve her own life at the prison, no surprise.

But the problem is: they give Suki an inspirational line to the effect of "we're all working together and we'll all break out together"

You know

The thing she does not do in the show

So if both the show and this comic are canon, then instead of setting up a compare/contrast with the thief girl, they've just set up a comparison. One were Suki is arguably worse, because she's been leading a significant number of prisoners on with her "we'll all fight and win our freedom together!" business, only to straight up cut them out of the escape loop and abandon them, whereas the thief is only leading Suki on in the sense that Suki keeps telling her what it's morally correct to think and confuses snide replies with agreement

My dudes. My fellow writers. You people actually being paid for this. There were so many ways to fix those awful implications against our girl's character, the simplest of which would be to not include that line. Or they could have, you know, made it canon compliant with what actually happens in the show, so that this comic doesn't set Suki up as a betrayer instead of a community builder. Like... just send all her good prison buddies off to other prisons in the wake of the warden finding out they're colluding. Have it timed to be right before the next new prisoners arrive, thus setting it immediately before the Boiling Rock episodes, so Suki didn't have anyone left in the prison she'd want to take with her on a breakout. For bonus points, include a page or two of her and her Kyoshi warriors opening up the cell of one of her prison friends post-war, thus implying she's tracking down and actually fulfilling her promises. Maybe even show her doing the same with thief girl, who was established as being imprisoned on false charges anyway, and also showing that Suki is A) the bigger person, and B) willing to acknowledge her own role in mistakes (because I cannot emphasize enough how much thief girl was not hiding her own priorities, and it was Suki who approached HER with all this, not the girl ever doing anything special to weasel her way in) (this would also open up an opportunity for paralleling Suki's earlier in-comic mistake of not listening to one of her friend's very valid thoughts and feeling, which lead to the girl leaving their island alone pre-canon; a "seeing people as they are, not what you want them to be" moment)

Anyway yeah enjoyable enough for a quick read but another one for the "this can't be canon or the characters are So Much Worse than they were in the actual show" pile

At least Aang didn't promise to murder anyone in this one

#I also have minor critiques like #Why are all the guards drawn as short and noodly-armed as Sokka pretending to be a guard #Why are the guards the only ones allowed to have funny lines #Did anyone consider using a lack of dialogue in some panels to establish mood and let the visuals speak for themselves (no they did not) #Why is Azula villain monologuing for so long at the start #She does like her villain lines but in the show they're short #And generally aimed at fresh opponents #Not last week's old news #I kept wondering why Azula was even there instead of generic lackeys especially since she had to have been dealing with the conquest of #Ba Sing Se around then. big This Could Have Been An Email vibes #Also as a gardener #HOW FAST WERE THOSE PRISON PLANTS GOING TO SEED AND WHERE CAN I GET SOME #Apparently they needed minimal (almost no?) light and tiny cracks of space and were nutritious and tasted good raw and grew so fast they #Could substantially affect the diets of multiple prisoners within a short time span? #I WANT THEM IN MY INDOOR SETUP ASAP #Screw lettuce I want Suki's Magic Beans #avatar the last airbender #atla #Suki #There continue to be no comics in Ba Sing Se but this was a better attempt than some #Suki Alone

let me make it so abundantly clear right now that taking the shard was a fucking amazing choice. obviously not from a logical standpoint, they were warned against doing that like eight billion times, but it was SUCH a good move narratively holy shit. i think ashton would have given it up to fearne if she wanted it, but she didn’t, and oh my god did they want it. they have been recklessly throwing themself into answers this entire time. they threw themself into a fucking volcano without any hesitation to get that shard. the fact that it made them feel anything at all? of COURSE they were going to grab it. he told evontra’vir that he was owed power. nobody else was going to give it to him, from his pov, so he took it himself. also it was fucking hilarious how bad of an idea it was. literally just the worst possible thing you could have done. but also it made total sense, i love it, taliesin jaffe what the actual fuck, i owe you my life, aabria iyengar i owe you my life more,

#cr #cr3 #cr spoilers #ashton greymoore #roll insight #literally the most insane possible narrative direction this could have gone #but it MAKES SENSE ashton does not internalize consequences because they do not stop long enough to do so #they made the choice to do this within the span of like six hours and consulted nobody about it except fearne #purposefully because they knew the others would stop them #anyways i know i’m gonna see so much discourse about this in the next week but holy fuck. LOVED that choice #even if ashton had died . still a great choice #a fucking insane choice. fucking UNHINGED choice. but i’m a fan of big risky in character moves #and it paid off this time. and i’m sooooo interested in where that will go

[disabled-queer-culture-is]

To anyone who made goals they were unable to reach during disability pride month like I did, (I made a goal to order a mobility aid off my own money or start the process of getting a prescription for one, and then did not do that because July hates me), it is okay! I am proud of you!

The world’s still spinning. You still deserve accessibility and respect. Let’s keep to those goals and just change the time frame!

#july has literally always been the worst/most expensive/most stressful/most tragedy filled month of the year for every year of my life #so learning it’s disability pride month was a real kick in the gut sort of irony #but i’ve survived another one folks!! #not disabled queer culture is #haha yeah sorry for the radio silence. #5 people my family are close to died within the span of a week and i had to just lay down and give up for a bit

[ID in ALT!]

Taking another short hiatus. I've got too much going on right now and I don't have the mental energy to keep up with Orkoposts. (Plus I've been aching for a break for awhile and I think this is as good a time as any to take it.)

Orkoposts will resume June 5!

#notorko #announcement #hopefully by then i'll have more orkos built up #but yeah uh. i think forgetting orkos this many times within the span of a few weeks is a sign i should take a break #sorry it's so sudden! #just like. realizing i'd missed the orkopost for the day combined with the mental load of my life #AND the fact that i've kind of been slacking on orkoposts lately #i just kinda went 'yeah!! time for a break' #if you have any ideas or requests please send them!! it will make things much easier for me when i get back!! #even if you just have vague ideas for a theme like 'put orko in textbooks' or something

[acetonitril]

I was tagged by @all-my-worlds-a-stage to do this a while ago and I wanted to do this so badly and now that I have 1. time and 2. an actual wifi connection, let's go. Thank you so much for tagging me!

Share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written less than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway.

(toi et moi) dans la nuit on trouvera: They are a year into their relationship—their honest to god real romantic relationship Jake never thought they’d have—and they’ve already gone through all kinds of things together: Separations due to deployments followed by frantic reunion sex, birthdays celebrated with friends and holidays with family, clean bills of health and the condom packet collecting dust in the drawer, a shared postal address.

all in bad taste: They’re friends, Bradley firmly reminds himself as he looks over to where Jake is lounging on Bradley’s sofa, nibbling on the crackers he says he hates, focused on the game they’re both only mildly interested in.

you're a part of the dawn where the light comes from the dark: They have only been doing this for a couple of weeks, hooking up more casually than anything else, and Jake doesn’t actually know all that much about Bradley yet and doesn’t know if he ever will.

the sight of you leaves me weak: Post-mission, Jake briefly and naively thinks that a handshake would fix, well, not everything, but something.

Esposado: „Hellmann.“

Weichgekocht: Till Ritter ist ein Mann, der die meiste Zeit seines Lebens alleine verbracht hat.

And Everything Is You: So there’s this pub somewhere in the middle of London.

Der Wald und lauter Bäume: „Haben wir jetzt alles oder müssen wir noch das Muster der Servietten festlegen?“

Geschmacklos: Mit dem unguten Gefühl, welches das Wissens, was im Haus der Baermanns geschehen war, in ihm auslöste, schaute sich Thiel noch einmal darin um.

3-Satz-Ficathon 2018: Mit fragwürdig dramatischem Timing und gewohnt hoher Geschwindigkeit erreichten Thiel und Boerne in dessen Sportwagen den Tatort - an welchem sie natürlich schon erwartet wurden, denn Bulle stand mit einem wie so oft leicht verlorenem Gesichtsausdruck in der Einfahrt und wartete darauf, dass der Kommissar und der Rechtsmediziner ausstiegen, was Boerne mit seiner gewohnten Eleganz und Grazilität tat und sich dabei sogar noch mit einer Hand den Knopf seines Jacketts schloss; Thiel auf der anderen Seite tat sich bei diesen niedrigen Autos immer etwas schwerer, weshalb Boerne ohne zu zögern um den Wagen herumlief, die Tür aufhielt und Thiel einen Arm entgegenstreckte, bis dieser schließlich, tatsächlich ohne sich dabei lächerlich zu machen, indem er aus dem Auto stolperte oder gar fiel, sicher neben Boerne stand, dessen Hand dabei noch an Thiels Oberarm liegend und den Blick „alles in Ordnung?“ fragend auf ihn gerichtet, bis er nickte - wortlose Kommunikation.

Not quite ten, but tagging some people who write, to my knowledge: @theinsouciantknitter, @fanpersoningfox, @mackwinnon, @yikes-00 and anyone else who wants to do it! If you want to, that is :)
