there are so many amazing and powerful benders in atla but what i love about zuko is that whether or not he can use his bending in that moment has zero (0) bearing on how much he’s going to absolutely kick your ass. no bending? that’s fine - he’s got swords. no swords or bending? that’s fine - he’s literally just going to beat you up. if you’re REALLY unlucky then you get all three. as a treat.

I unironically love every avatar the last airbender fanmade comic or fanfic that was made by fans in the early 2000s. every character is completely oc. the plot is absolutely surreal and unhinged. the pairings are random and wild. and they all swear for some reason. and I eat it up even today

Azula: I can see your whole history in your eyes. You were born with nothing so you had to struggle and connive and claw your way to power. But true power, the divine right to rule, is something you're born with. The fact is, they don't know which one of us is going to be sitting on that throne and which one is going to be bowing down. But I know, and you know. Well?
Long Feng: You've beaten me at my own game.

What's your favourite moment from the atla series?
like, of all time? from the entire show? idk if i can just pick one. so here’s a list of random moments that left an indelible mark on me as a kid:
katara fighting pakku in “the waterbending master”
yue sacrificing herself in “the siege of the north”
toph fighting all those guys in the ring in “the blind bandit”
also “hey! i’ve got my eye on you!” “water tribe…” (ibid)
toph and iroh meeting in “the chase”
zuko yelling O smite me mighty smiter in “bitter work”
the (very underrated) azula and aang fight in “the drill”
long feng laying out the truth of the city in “city of walls and secrets”
iroh getting buff sequence in “sokka’s master”
zuko redirecting ozai’s lightning in “the day of black sun”
aang and zuko meeting the dragons in “the firebending master”
ty lee betraying azula in “the boiling rock”
basically the entire sequence of katara tracking down yon rha in “the southern raiders” but also it makes me so emotional that for years i couldn’t even rewatch it
azula’s breakdown in “sozin’s comet”
toph and sokka holding hands as they prepare to plummet to their deaths (ibid)
katara fighting azula (ibid)
