What's Kaz's favourite holidays? Do they have ''Christmas'' or anything similar?
Great question!
I don't know that they'd have anything exactly like Christmas in the Fire Nation, although I like to think maybe a solstice can be a stand in for such a holiday. Even so, it wouldn't be Kazuo's favorite.
I think Kazuo's favorite holiday is something akin to the Heiva festival celebrated in Polynesia, so I'll just call it that. The Heiva is weeks long celebration of island life full of dancing, physical competition (think island style olympic games), and fire walking. In the ATLA world I think it started as a celebration after surviving a particularly damagin hurricane. A holiday involving competition instead of gift giving/lack of ability to give or receive gifts would have appealed to him more particularly as a young man. He still likes to time his visits home to align with the Heiva.
He loved competing in the rowing events especially.

In July 2024, the Olympic Games will open in Paris. However, not all the competitions will take place in the Metropole. The surfers will ride instead the waves of French Polynesia, on the other side of the world, off the coral reef of Teahupo’o.

Our Black Indigenous People dance and our African connection before the fake race of white people divided our people by saying who we are when they call everyone with translucent skin white.
The Black on Black Love Movement is bringing our Indigenous family worldwide back together again and saying to the fake race of white people that you all are fucking idiots.
Our Black on Black Indigenous Love Movement is expanding rapidly and you fake race mother fuckers can't do anything about it because we all can see you are an enemy to the entire human race.
As a multi-shipper it has become so that I ship my own characters like crazy. I even give them ship songs, which I will include in this solely because I can lol (and to give the general vibe of the ship). I may have the power to make whatever I want canon, but I won't because shipping is too fun, more so when you don't have to worry about canon lol.
I'll try to limit myself to one or two ships, both canon and not, per wip
I also can't really decide who to tag, so I'll leave this one open
Rules: make a list of ship names from your wip(s) (it's okay if they don't sound cool) for people to send in asks so you can talk about them! Fan ships count too if you're writing about them.

by the way- nobody asked- but now that i'm thinking of Lin attending the Heiva festival in Kaz's hometown it's worth noting she absolutely has Monica Gellar in the Carribean hair problems:
