When it comes to modern Baavira AUs the thing I struggle with most is giving Kuvira a reasonable normal job~ Baatar I could come up with several (college professor, an engineer of any kind, repairman, ect.) but Kuvira stumps me a lot of the time lol nothing ever really feels like something she'd naturally choose to want to do, or at least fits with my interpretation of her hmm

For Opalvira Week 2022 - Day 1: Modern AU (Grad student Opal and Chief of Staff (to Governor Suyin) Kuvira)
It wasn't that Opal had let the day get away from her. She was certifiably working on her thesis...or was going to. It was just that the crossword in the Zaofu Times was right there on the nightstand when she woke up, and it had been ages since she finished one before her girlfriend did.
After the crossword and her morning coffee and scone, while Opal was sitting down to read the notes from her faculty advisor, she remembered that she'd been meaning to mop and change the tea towels in the kitchen. Because she was only halfway through the podcast she was listening to when she finished, she decided to run the dishwasher and sort the recycling and take out the trash.
When Kuvira finally returned to the apartment after a series of work meetings that probably could have been emails, Opal was balancing on the edge of the bathtub, undoing the clasps holding up the shower curtain.
"Perfect timing," Opal said, flashing a grin at her girlfriend. "Go over to linen closet and pick out a curtain you like."
The chief of staff raised an incredulous eyebrow. "I thought you were working on your thesis today."
"I am." Opal scooted along the edge of the tub to take down another clasp. "I was just reading the feedback Tenzin sent me."
"And how many hours ago was that?"
"I can't go check the time until you bring me a new shower curtain," she said with a pointed glance.
Kuvira rolled her eyes, but went, returning a few minutes later with a dark green and silver drape folded over her forearm.
"That's pretty," Opal said, trying to remember when they'd bought that one. "But it doesn't match the rugs. You think I should run out and buy some new ones?"
"I think you should stop stress cleaning and work on your thesis."
"I'm not stress cleaning because I'm not stressed." Opal took the new curtain from Kuvira and spread it out. "I'm just catching up on some chores, but I can start being productive at any time."
"Mhmm..." Kuvira crouched into an earthbending stance and all at once the metal clasps hooked themselves into the curtain and then hung it up on the bar. "Start now, then."
Opal carefully got down from the edge of the tub and crossed her arms over her chest. "Really, honey? Not even a hello or a kiss, just work on your thesis?"
Just then, Kuvira leaned down and pressed a soft kiss against her lips, tasting of chrysanthemum tea, the scent of earth and ocean flowing from her hair.
Right when Opal moved to deepen the kiss, slide her hands under the other woman's dark blazer, Kuvira pulled away, smirking.
"There's your hello," she said, her voice coming out in a teasing lilt. "You can have another after you've written two pages."
"Kuvira!"
"I'm gonna change and head out for a run. Have those pages done by the time I'm back."
"That's an unrealistic timeline," she said to her girlfriend's retreating back, even as she made her way towards her laptop.

Had another random Kuvira headcanon. This time for a modern AU:
Opal and the other girls at their private school used to call Kuvira “fembot” thinking it would bother her, since she tends to be rather emotionless and robotic socially. But Kuvira just found it funny and fully embraced the nickname. Soon she was known by the pretty much the whole school as “the machine.”

Fic rec week: Angst/Kai
Tumblr media
Kai time kai time kai time!!! the blorbo supreme and let's start off with a fic that's both angst and Kai-centric, she was my sister before she was your lover by @kuviras-eyeliner!
For as long as he could remember, Jay was the emotional one. Kai knew it like the back of his hand, so obviously, it was expected that Jay would express more grief than everyone else regarding Nya's death. And Kai knew from losing so many in the past, that instead of spiraling, he should be selfless. But Jay didn't see it that way, and for some reason, this angered him.
Why you should read: literally the crystalized fight but fully realized, this fic gives u all the kai acknowledgement you could want while also staying super in character and it's just to great
Day 1: Past by @knowledgequeenabc
Harumi's past was a twisted thing. But it led her to where she ended up.
Why you should read: A great piece on Harumi before she became the Quiet One and the events leading her to it!! The internal tension is so good and investing to read about and the fact that she barely speaks throughout is just a really great way of framing the narrative
Please Stop Almost Dying by vvvortex
“So… come here often?” “Uh, this is a hospital.” “Yeah, I know. Come here often?”
Why you should read: A kinda-modern AU where Kai keeps landing himself in the hospital for stupid stunts - but hey! there's at least a cool intern there to talk to! a very funny story and then the ending hits you like a sack of bricks no spoilers bc its honestly something you should go into relatively blind :D
Where the Pain Digs Deepest by HarmforHim
Kai tugged at his hair. “I wish I could just, ugh! Like, just wish us back home, you know? Wish none of this ever happened in the first place. Wish it all away or something…” “No, you don’t.” The voice startled him more than he’d ever care to admit. Honestly, he hadn’t thought Jay was awake… Caught in the Realm of the Oni and the Dragon, Kai accidentally stirs up painful memories for his friend, leading to a very unexpected but much-needed conversation between the two brothers.
Why you should read: combines two of my favorite things - Kai and Skybound! this whole fic feels like a natural way of addressing the whole s6 reveals and I love the ninja voices in it
for want (for nothing) by @sadisthetic
When Kai picks up the staff, things go a little differently from the way he planned. The powers coursing through his body uncover long buried feelings. Including ones he didn't know he had.
why you should read: okay just read this one the night before today's rec list and man oh MAN is this fic an Experience in the best way possible. one of those things that's horrifying and amazing all in the same breath

Iroh and Kuvira for the super cool headcanon ask game?
General Iroh
2-4 songs that are probably on their iPod: I have a weird headcanon that modern AU Iroh is into old school rap. I think he finds the low slow beats soothing.
the emoticon they’d use most often: Iroh is a horrific old man of a texter. I'm not sure he knows what an emoticon is. But if he did, it would be
Tumblr media
what they act like when they haven’t had enough sleep: short with people, extra stubborn, lots of rubbing the bridge of his nose like he has a headache, which he does. Like a toy with a low battery.
how they like to comfort/care for themselves when they’re in a slump: BADLY! Iroh is absolute shit at this. But to the extent he can, lots of outdoors and exercise. Long walks, longer runs. He'll also assign himself projects (often cleaning) so he has something to focus on or throw himself into work.
what they wanted to be when they grew up: tie between a pirate and Zuko
thoughts on their singing voice (decent? terrible? soprano? alto?): Iroh has a very nice tenor voice but is very shy about singing
how/what they like to draw or doodle: perhaps predictably, maps and ship designs. He's an awful artist but that doesn't stop him from doodling anyway.
Kuvira
the one place they sometimes end up falling asleep – where they’re not supposed to: Baatar's room.
the game they'd destroy everyone else at: any kind of online multiplayer war game
their preferred hot beverage on really cold nights. or mornings. or whenever: Kuvira is a coffee drinker, but appreciates anything warm that's handed to her. She's not much for making drinks herself.
their favorite kind of weather: Warm but not too warm and still. Good earthbending weather. Good battle weather.
Ask about characters I've written!

Random HC maybe applied to a Modern AU of some sort but Baatar is that guy when putting furniture together never consults the instructions but assembles everything perfectly regardless. It's like his sixth sense. He lays everything out meticulously and Kuvira is not allowed to touch anything because he knows she'll loose a screw somewhere so she just hovers around him menacingly and threatens to pick things up just to bother him lol

N4 Bumizumi? (im definitely not flame)
Using this as a gift for @bumizumii. Happy birthday, my friend. This fic isn't even a tenth as good as you deserve, but I wanted to do at least something for you. (And I have on idea if I got Mizuki right, but I tried.)
I just hope you enjoy it.
@atla-multishipping-bingo
Modern AU Bingo N4 - Celebrity
One more wave, one more bow, and a little wink to the cameras - damn those paparazzi and their annoying flash, always blinding him - and he finally, finally ducks back through the door. Bumi falls back against the wall with a deep sigh as soon as the door latch closes. He slides down to the floor, rests his face on his knees.
This, he thinks, is too much.
(He’s too old for this, now. Far too old.
And it’s not like he’s a hero, not really. He hadn’t done anything special. Just…the right thing. That’s all.)
At least now, he’s home. Finally…home.)
“Dad?”
His daughter’s - son’s, he corrects himself; still a little new, still adjusting, but he’s getting there - voice echoes through the hall, and he smiles through the exhaustion. Oh, how he’d missed that voice.
“Over here,” he calls weakly. The thud of Mizuki’s boots echoes down the hallway, and he glances up to see his son scowling down at him, arms crossed over his chest.
“Look at you,” he says,” a washed up old sailor. What would the world think of you?”
“That I need to see your mother and give her a big kiss,” he retorts as he slowly gets back up to his feet.
Mizuki stares at him for a long, silent moment, scowling - then chuckles, shakes his head.” Nice to see you, too, dad.”
“Love you,” Bumi winked. Mizuki pretends to retch for a moment - Bumi just shakes his head at his antics and wraps his arm around his son, letting Mizuki guide him down the halls of the palace. It’s only been three months since Kuvira attacked Republic City, but it might as well have been a lifetime.
Interview after interview, press conference after press conference, news reports and criticisms and promotions and ceremonies and…and he was just done. Worn out. Tired. Exhausted. He was almost sixty-five, now - he just didn’t have the energy he had as a kid. It was time for him to slow down. Stay home. Annoy his sons with bad jokes and funny stories. (And probably get thrown in one of the ponds in the gardens by said sons. Again.
Ah, well. It was better than whatever PR mover nonsense Varrick would have wanted him to do.)
“Go, get out of here. Be gross with mom,” Mizuki says, punching his shoulder.” I’m going to go punch something.”
Bumi rolls his eyes, and silently opens the door to Izumi’s suite. He pokes his head through, looks around - good. She hasn’t seen him; she’s still lounging on a couch by the balcony - he can see her, her crown cast off to the side, a book in her hand. He smirks as he slips inside, silently closes the door behind him.
(He might be exhausted, but he wouldn’t be Bumi if he didn’t mess with her at least a little bit.)
He tiptoes up behind her, almost slipping on a folded rug - and just before he can put his hands over her eyes, she speaks.
“I can hear you, you know.” Bumi can hear the smile in her voice.
He groans, throws his hands down.” You didn’t let me finish!”
Izumi chuckles - a light, rich sound that makes his heart flip - and snaps her book shut. She smoothly stands up from the couch, walks around to take him in her arms. He buries his nose in her hair, kisses her forehead.
Damn it, he’d missed her so much.
“Missed you,” Izumi mumbles into his shoulder.
“Missed you, too,” he says. He pulls away, gives her a light kiss, and tugs her back in again. Izumi is warm and safe and…everything, right now.
Being a war hero was not the kind of fame for him. Too much…well, everything, really. He could never put up with it for long. Spirits, that’s why he’d retired in the first place.
(Prince-Consort of the Fire Nation, though…well. He could survive that, for as long as Izumi would have him.)

32. Who's so affectionate they can't stop touching the other?
33. What is their wedding day like?
34. How do they cheer the other one up during sad times?
for Korvira
32. Definitely Korra. She tries not to do it much in public, because she knows Kuvira isn’t a big fan of PDA. But she takes any opportunity she can get to steal a quick kiss, or touch her/hold her hand. And once they’re alone she’s not shy about touching Kuvira. Which Kuvira doesn’t mind lol.
33. Honestly, I always headcanon them as eloping in private. Whether it’s in a canon setting or a modern AU. They’re both just private people, and neither of them really want a huge wedding. Though they hold a celebration for their family and friends later.
34. Kuvira can be a bit defensive when she’s feeling down. She’s not used to opening up, and will shut down completely if she feels pressured to talk. But Korra’s learned how to get past her defenses. Usually it involves a lot of patience and offerings of Kuvira’s favorite snacks/drinks/books. Eventually Kuvira will feel comfortable enough to seek out Korra and talk.
Korra is the opposite. She’s never been afraid to openly vent her emotions, which has gotten her in trouble in the past a lot. Kuvira usually just listens quietly and lets her vent. Once Korra has said everything she needs to, Kuvira will offer to cuddle with her and let her cry in her arms.
Thanks for the ask!
