So this person @kirain (tumblr com/kirain/697013736635088896) answered an ask about who’s the scariest Atla villain. Pretty innocuous. But then this one azula Stan kept harassing her even though she told her twice to end the argument. Also the reason this azula stan came to this OP’s attention was because someone else also linked it to ANOTHER azula stan I guess because harassment is fun. Azula fans are scary
not to stoke any fires of this argument if op has put it to rest but. what the fuck.
this was the most tame interpretation of azula ever, one that has a lot of pretty heavy backing from her canon actions even before the incidents of losing mai & ty lee — azula is vindictive. she is cruel & callous & hurtful. she takes joy in other people’s suffering either because she doesn’t like the person, such as smiling when zuko was burnt by their father, or because she wants something from them, like when she smiled on watching as ty lee struggled to not fall into the safety net she had set on fire.
azula is a villain of the show, no matter how tragic her circumstances were or what happened to bring her to this point. that can all be taken into account but at the end of it all, she is in the villain role of the story & people shouldn’t be afraid to point that out because the apologists will come screeching out of the woodwork, foaming at the mouth because she wasn’t woobified enough in a pretty accurate representation of who she is.
is azula’s story sad? yes. she should’ve been given a better life than what she had as a pawn to be used by her father. but was she also incredibly cruel, vain & malicious? dangerous? frightening to the child audience the show was intended for? yes.

The Eleventh Doctor having such a young face and being the Doctor to live possibly the longest. The one who abandoned his companion more or less because he chose a bigger (in number of beings) duty of care. The Doctor who often acts the youngest and yet is the most frightening. The Doctor who, at least to me, marked such a difference in the character.
The youngest-looking, most underestimated because of that, the one who sacrificed his memories to save a moon without a moment's hesitation, the one who lost his parents-in-law (who were his best friends), the one who saw his grave, the one who found the impossible girl and did his best to keep her safe just as he kept him safe...
The one who experienced the highest high and the lowest low of his whole life. The one who lost and won and lost again. The one who waited and withered and aged and practiced patience as best he could because one could say he gave up on saving himself.
The Eleventh Doctor.

Tell me why my 40 something year old uncle is the only person other than my CHILD cousin who petulantly demanded a second piece of bday cake and finished it (without checking if anyone else wanted it - including the actual bday haver my brother) and also barely did anything all day and whined while we jarred tomato sauce and did the "easy" jobs we normally save for the kids so they can feel like they're helping bc he was "too tired" to do any work, while I worked all day with a bum wrist AND hip without complaining as did my elderly grandparents and my father who is RECOVERING FROM SURGERY and he's so demanding and makes his mother/my grandmother do almost everything for him and complains always about everything and we all low-key thought him getting married 2 yrs ago would maybe fix this but his wife is almost as bad and I'm just
