I like to think that at least once, the Avatar cycle seemed to skip the Water Tribe—like people knew it was the water tribe’s turn, everyone was looking for them, the tests are done on all the kids, but like 60-80 years go by and no avatar until some Earth Kingdom kid shows up. People wonder if the cycle skipped a generation or what, but nothing serious was going on at that time so they shrug and move on.
It’s only many many years later that someone is researching Swampbender oral history and someone tells the story of “Ol Stinky Jess, she was a funny one, could light the swamp on fire an’ all sorts o’ shenanigans! Best catfishgator catcher in the tribe, she was” and thats literally it, she just lived a totally chill life in the swamp and nobody knew what an avatar was at the time so they just rolled with that funny gal’s odd bending ways.

Watching Avatar: The Last Airbender and I just realized Zuko has Sozin’s eyes. I could write something beautiful about it but I feel as though it speaks entirely for itself

Azula Appreciation Post

Why don't you think Azula deserves a redemption arc? I don't necessarily disagree with you, btw, I just want to know what made you think that.
I didn't mean that in a moral way, exactly. Morally, I don't think redemption can be earned as much as it can be lived up to (which, btw, I don't think Azula would). What I meant was that as a character, her story didn't deserve a redemption arc because it's not what's been set up. If she had been "redeemed" through her mental breakdown, it would cheapen her arc, and Azula doesn't deserve that. Someone (I think @sokkastyles) mentioned on my post over the weekend that Azula's arc was complete as it was, and I agree. It was a fantastic arc, too. It just ended sadly, and I feel like a lot of people just don't like that. Which is fine. That's their prerogative. That doesn't mean that there was something missing from Azula's story. And it doesn't mean that her arc deserves or needs a redemption.
As I've said before, I do think that there could be a redemption for Azula, but it would need a lot of work to make it worthwhile. First of all, they would have to break Azula down the point where she would not only see her need to change, but have her want to change. She is nowhere near that point at the end of the show. Which is fine. She doesn't have to be. Let Azula be a villain. If she's your fave, embrace that your fave is a villain. It's okay. I am a HUGE fan of Maleficent (the only Maleficent). Yes, her arc had to end with her defeat, but she made defeat look fabulous!

The fact that these are practically the exact same character, but one is rightfully universally hated for being an abusive megalomaniac while the other is being upheld by the fandom as some sort of.... ugh.. "hero" 🤮🤮

#to me enji stans seem completely deranged#like who would watch atla and come to the conclusion that yes it was actually zuko's fault??!!#who would watch atla and ask for ozai redemption at the end??!#literally no one#so then how do you see endeavor in mha and do that exact thing?#they're almost the exact same character it's literally uncanny how similar they are#right down to the specific types of abuse they subjected their families to#ozai married ursa because she was avatar roku's granddaughter so he thought they would produce more powerful children together#enji married rei for her ice quirk because he thought they could produce more powerful children together#ozai favored one of his kids who he considered a prodigy while ignoring/hating the other one who he thought of as weak/useless#enji favored one of his kids who he considered a prodigy while ignoring/hating the other ones who he thought of as weak/useless#ozai is responsible for one of his kids having half their face burned and permanently scarred#enji is responsible for one of his kids having half their face burned and permanently scarred#no i don't care that technically rei was the one that burned shouto enji was still the reason this happened#but ozai was tyrant and and an imperialist while enji saves people for a living#congratulations that's the only valid point to hate ozai more than endeavor#but that just proves how fucking low the bar is#plus endeavor's idea of heroism is more like#beating people up for a living and coincidentally saving some bystanders as a bonus#anyway ozai should have died#maybe not by aang but he should have died#enji should also die#i don't care who does it I'm good with anything as long as it isn't framed as a 'heroic sacrifice'#atla#atla ozai#mha#anti endeavor#anti enji todoroki#todoroki family

Sweetness Comes Later | Rated E/NC17 | 3/12
Summary: “Sometimes meetings with the Southern Water Tribe Ambassador happen late at night. In the Fire Lord's chambers. With minimal clothing.”
A/N: [Updates every Friday!] Inspired by this amazing nsfw/18+ art by @peachmilkpanda over on twitter, who has been single handedly feeding the fandom Buff Zuko™ all year. Go and give this woman her mf roses! (ง •̀_•́)ง
At some point in the meeting Kohan’s dismissive regard needles at the Earth Kingdom Ambassador a little too much, causing thinly veiled threats and promises to finally fly across the table. Zaheer, the young Air Acolyte heralding from the new settlement in the Western Isles, quietly and studiously trades notes with the Minister of Global Finance while they argue.
Having been entirely unsurprised at the final turn of events—Ambassador Rya often rose to heat too easily in response to Kohan’s gruffness—and especially after having attended a thousand and one of these meetings in the last six years, Katara brings the focus back around with an offer, her words wedging sharply between the ones being tossed about.
“On behalf of my Tribe, it would honor me as an ambassador to put into negotiation the adoption of the Maritime Logistics Edict for our sister country. As you all know, we helped Avatar Aang create this legislation for trade and water-space occupancy between the Southern Isles and the South Pole, all of which was in accordance with the Fire Nation’s Restoration Assistance Act.”
Katara takes a small breath, ignores the gooseflesh sweeping over her at the heavy heat of sunny eyes raking over her from above.
“Fire Lord Zuko,” she continues, trying to keep the her voice even—as she’d hoped, as she’d planned, from the moment she’d stepped foot in his throne room—his, everything, from the chair she sat on to the rubies embedded into the golden scones that line the walls, to the wetness that sat cold and pathetic between her legs; all of it, his, and the thrill it sent up her spine could be claimed in his name, too—as she’d wanted, his stare had not strayed too long from her. Not a single inch too far, and for it she was a mess. For it, he had ripped apart her every last point through the day, had argued and debated over every idea and every possible solution that has left her lips.
Of course, she’d fought right back—and not just with better notions on parliament reform. No, Katara fought back dirty, with the way she flipped her hair and leaned forward in her seat; with the way she’d dared to pace, to strut, at the foot of his throne while throwing his arguments right back into his face in front of the entire committee.
Zuko looked like he wanted to throw her after that—throw her right over his lap and set his palm to her backside.

Showrooms of LANCER Manufacturers
IPS-N
IPS-N showrooms are what you'd get if you slammed a truck dealership, a hardware store, a camping gear shop and a sports bar together in the Bass Pro Shops Pyramid. We're talking row upon row of shelves stocked with the most precision-engineered engine parts you can print on one side of the floor, and on the other, durable, hard-wearing survival gear. Camping stoves you can run off of your mech's coldcore, sleeping bags that'll survive a HEX charge, automatic camo cloth, the works.
Right down the middle, you've got the mech floor. They've got the Tortuga. They've got the Blackbeard. They've got the Drake. They've got the Lancaster and the Kidd. They've got the Vlad (they put a chain-link fence covered in DO NOT TOUCH signs around that one after the infamous CFO's 10-year-old Incident). They've even got the Raleigh, kinda tucked away a little bit behind the water feature, but it's there!
Everything on the shop floor is ruggedized to the point that you could take a mech's fist to it without leaving a dent - and they sometimes do that to demonstrate the engineering quality. There's a giant screen hanging from the ceiling displaying constant advertising for the mechs and IPS-N in general, usually striding purposefully through idyllic Diasporan wilderness or doing hard, honest work like starship loading or construction. There's a mixtape of the most famous bro-country hits playing 24/7.
Smith-Shimano Corpro
In a word: bespoke. Everything in this place is custom. Each and every desk is individually built according to the height of the salesperson who sits behind it, and manages to be a unique art piece without disrupting the overarching aesthetic of the showroom. Whenever there's a change of staff on the sales floor, they rearrange every single desk so that they're still in ascending order.
All of the salespeople are inhumanly pretty, by the way. This atelier has its own fully-staffed makeup and wardrobe team. You're part of a work of art when you work for SSC. Everything and everyone gleams. Even the most chic visitors might feel underdressed in the midst of all this splendour.
The mechs aren't just there to be sold, they're there to be part of the experience. You might see a Monarch holding up the ceiling like the titan Atlas himself. A Mourning Cloak might be posed provocatively like a nude statue. That Swallowtail - is it in a slightly different position every time you see it, or is that just its camouflage decals? How does it always manage to be just inside your line of sight, even when you're looking somewhere else?
They have a catwalk, like you'd see at a fashion show, but it's sized for mechs. If they really think you might make a purchase, they'll queue up the entire performance for you, and you'll get to see a Viceroy strut.
The mix tape for this showroom is a seamless mixture of complex jazz, psychedelic ambient and classical piano music. It's sophisticated and mysterious.
Harrison Armory
Imagine if America could be a showroom. Harrison Armory mech outlets are part dealership, part museum. Every mech is in its own diorama, depicting some heroic event in the Armory's glorious history. A phalanx of Sherman Mk. Is holds the line against some Diasporan slaver-tyrant's army. A Saladin fends off Karrakin hordes during the Interest War. The Genghis Mk. II? Oh, that diorama isn't open right now, it had to be closed for *coughcoughcough* and *coughcoughcough* but let's move on shall we heh heh
Everyone who works here has been in the Colonial Legion at some point, and knows every specification of the mechs they sell off by heart without even looking at their slate. If possible, the Armory tries to employ people who have actual combat experience with the mechs they're selling; people who can speak to the efficacy of their technology first-hand. It's one of the many programs which the Armory has open for retired veterans; it's easy work for decent pay, good benefits and it looks great on your Social.
The music here is a constant loop of patriotic Armory anthems. If you've ever heard the music from Starship Troopers, or the Outbreak of War from Star Ocean, you'll know what I'm talking about.
HORUS
Being a decentralized omninet collective with no official branding or even consistent manufacturing standards, it should come as no surprise that HORUS has no showrooms.

Tyrant Atlas (Bug/Dragon)
An Ancient Paradox of both HERACROSS and PINSIR, heavily inspired on their Mega Evolutions
Its regular colors are meant to resemble HERACROSS while its shiny colors resemble PINSIR
It is based on the Atlas Beetle (Chalcosoma atlas)
Tumblr media
I just cant make a future Paradox without making an ancient one, there needs to be balance!

Pjo atla au! Was comtemplating on who should be the avatar and I went with nico just because he’s my fav. I feel like the au wont go exactly as the plot of atlau due do drastic changes like the air nomads never getting wiped off, given that the new avatar during kronos’ reign was from the earth kingdom, but i also didnt want the plot point of nico being the *last* earthbender because if i do expand on the au, id want some characters like hazel or grover to also be earthbenders (sue me for adjusting stuff to my liking), so lets just assume kronos didnt went as far as completely annihilating an entire race of benders cuz he thought the real avatar is already dead, and based on the cycle, the next avatar should be from the fire nation, and he probably would not destroy his own homeland, which leads to the next fire lord, zeus, sending jason to search for the supposedly 100 year old fire nation native avatar, that is until they eventually figured out nico’s status
Also! I thought about making jason an actual fire bender at first because, well, lightning. But i figured that in the hoo books, jason was more adept on the flying/sky/storm related aspects of zeus, so i thought, what if hes from the fire nation BUT an airbender? Boom.
And as for percy, hes kinda like an outcast after being banished from his tribe for practicing blood blending. Even if it was in an urgent scenario like the fire nation army attacking the place with no mercy. so he just wanders around until he eventually found nico. Certainly, if he helped the avatar in defeating their tyrant ruler, his tribe would let him return and be with his mom again right??? But maybe he should consider recruiting other people in team avatar eventually if him and nico kept getting chased around due to the big bounty on his head (other than the fact that he is with, literally, the avatar)
lmk if u want more of this au!

If I think about cTubbo for too long I implode because he was only 17!!!!! He was 17 and the president of a nation that wasn’t even his!!!!! He was protecting a dream to the death, a dream that wasn’t his dream. He gave up everything EVERYTHING for the dream of a man who only saw him as his sidekicks sidekick. He was never himself, he was always part of something, l’manburg, Tommy’s best friend, a spy for the rebellion, and the one time he was chosen was because it’s didn’t matter who was chosen bc the place was going up in flames anyway. He had a target on his back and became the face of evil to protect a dream that he gave his life for TWICE with zero recognition. No one listened to him and he sat alone in his big cold office as others told him how he should think and what he should do and that he was an idiot, a tyrant and called him the name of the most hated man ever just because he wanted peace, something he never had before. No one listened to him, but even his best friend who said he would be at his side but blatantly ignored him and told him that he’s just like the man that murdered him. The man that executed him at 16 years old after making him decorate his own public execution.
He was only 17 and became Atlas. he became the face of what everyone hated. People destroyed the dream that didn’t belong to him yet he gave his life, his happiness, his friends, his childhood for just to say it’s his fault that governments are corrupt af that the world would have been better if he had never been given the role. A role he didn’t ask for. A role he was thrown into just for someone else to pull the rug from under him. He was only 17

One thing I love, love, LOVE about the Netflix ATLA is that you *really* get a sense, very early on, for each of the past 3 incarnations of the avatar and how their struggles and their age of the world shaped them into who they are. (Spoilers for the animated show, if you care - and S1 and potentially future seasons of the live action)
Kuruk's age was plagued with threats from the spirit world (a history that rhymes with what we see when the cycle rolls around to Water again with Korra), that is where his focus was, and that is what cost him his closest connection to the living world. It left him crippled and bitter and unable to see the strength in Aangs connections with others. This is really something that was only hinted at in the anime, and I love seeing it fleshed out.
The next avatar, Kiyoshi, was born into an age of strife - warring kingdoms and tyrants and terror. She HAD to become a mighty and fearsome warrior, becuase she had to clean up the mess that Avatar Kuruk left in the living world. So of course, this is the lens through which she sees the troubles of Aang's age. This is the advice she gives him: only the strongest can bring balance and peace.
Then we have Roku, born into a golden age of peace and diplomacy, the remnants of Kiyoshi's iron fist holding the nations in their places. He was allowed a full childhood, friends, and you can see it in his manner, his sense of humor. You can also see the terrible pain of the wound that his best friend's final betrayal left in his spirit, when he counsels Aang that he cannot always trust his friends.
I just. I love that we are seeing all of this, and so soon! The stories of the previous avatars, and the way each of their lives impacts not just the rest of the avatar cycle, but the life cycle of their entire world, is so fascinating to me. I really, really hope they continue to deepen Aang's connection with his past lives if the series continues!

IMAGINE~
with Bahbz)
A Tyrant! Venti simp session~ 🥀🍷🕊️
Imagine a Teyvat where Venti is the tyrant archon of mondstadt, and he rules from Decarabians old tower which he has restored to his (and Dvalins, he’s a good dragon papi) own flair. While he’s not the worst, and he’s not corrupted too badly…there’s still lots of conflict and battle. (There’s this really hot dark Venti who is a certified smoker 🚬and he’s really hot and sometimes I just need to stare at his angry demeaning but beautiful face to remind myself that there is life to live but that’s just my personal testimony)🖤❤️☕️🚬
You’re a rebel leader in this mondstadt, which inherently means you’re enemies, and you are one of his top fugitives that he’s hunting down in his game of Windtrace to the death.
(You actually may just be his top fugitive…)
Things kinda get messy when, on a mission where you have to steal something that gives Lord Barbatos his power, like the holy lyre or the skyward atlas…
And you wind up in deadly territory.
maybe you took a wrong turn in the cathedral vents or castle vents and now you just fell through the ceiling like a complete idiot…not something a seasoned rebel would be caught doing, right?
Especially landing in the same room as the archon.
In his private quarters.
When he’s there, sleeping…
Oh! but you’re lucky. If there is anything to note about this foe, it’s that…well, man’s can SNOOZE.
What else is there to note? Oh…yeah…
From the way he’s been uttering your name in so many ways…
All the PET NAMES…
and all the touching himself…(who are you to be staring, by the way…)
(Wait…hes kinda hot now that you think of it…I mean, you’ve always been thinking this, it’s just that you’ve, you know, been busy scurrying away from him like a little rabbit from a fox in his never ending game of windtrace to the death…so naturally, you haven’t given this much thought…)
Wait~
He’s stirring…
