#team avatar’s kids

[steveandbuckysdaughter]

since you talked about Izumi in some of your posts (like Dad!Zuko and Mom!Mai and their “conquering Ba Sing Se adventure”) and the Hou-Tong/Izumi beef, I was wondering if you were open to make Gaang kids headcanons.

and if you were, can I request Kya and Izumi headcanons on their friendship etc?

Ok so, anon refers to this post and this other post in the ask, FYI.

But yes, I absolutely am down to make adult gaang/Gaang kids’ headcanons of any kind. So if y’all want any headcanon of that kind feel free to send an anon!

Anyway, back to the ask. I absolutely love the potential of Kya and Izumi’s dynamic. But since I love angst, here’s some little HCs with p a i n.

Izumi and Kya are roughly the same age, maybe Izumi is a year older than Kya.

Ever since they could sit straight, they’ve been inseparable. And as kids, with the republic city construction, they used to be constantly together

I headcanon that Izumi was more responsible and protective of Kya, while Kya saw Izumi as her idol, because you know, pretty firebending princess who punches everyone who looks at Kya the wrong way

I also like to think that Izumi was Kya’s gay awakening in her teens, but never acted on it because Izumi was straight and uninterested. Also, I HC that Izumi had a thing with Bumi, but that’s another story

Anyways. Since Izumi most likely had Iroh at like, 20, Kya would always hang out with Iroh as his fun aunt, doing mischief around etc.

But, and let’s go to the angsty part, I also HC that Kya and Izumi kind of began losing contact once 30s approached. Because you know, Kya was always traveling, and Izumi had crown princess duties to partake in.

Also, given that Zuko was Fire Lord and kind of not as involved in republic city as he used to be, the FN royal family did not hang out with the rest of the gaang as often, and Izumi ended up being often excluded from the drama etc. nothing unfixable, but stuff that definitely hurt Izumi.

I also feel like Izumi (and parents) was always invited to all of the gaang’s and their kids’ milestones, like weddings, ceremonies etc.

And when in 158AG Sokka died protecting Korra, Zuko and Izumi were at the funeral despite their problems in the fire nation.

But, and here we reach the most angsty part, a year later it was Mai who died, of an illness that had taken her like, five years prior. Of course Zuko and Izumi were distraught, and asked Katara, Toph and the others to attend.

But the day of the funeral, only Katara showed up. Because Bumi was in the United forces, Kya couldn’t interrupt her spiritual travels, Tenzin had a heavily pregnant Pema at home, Lin was working, Suyin was just up in her business in Zaofu and Toph was nowhere to be found.

This made Zuko very sad, but Izumi? She was furious. Absolutely furious. Because, how could they miss the one time they needed to be there for her after all the times she had gone out of her way to support them?

And especially, Izumi felt betrayed by Kya, for not even passing by or answering back to the news. So Izumi kind of ghosted and stopped talking with everyone.

The first time she saw any of the Gaang kids was during Kuvira’s storyline. And even then, as cold as ice

So I kind of headcanon that Korra had some business to do in the fire nation and the gang kids tagged along, and kind of had a some of fight with Izumi about her ghosting them and them never visiting

Izumi would be the most angry and hurt with Kya, and they would kind of be angry with each other for the entirety of the storyline

But then by the end, they would have an actual talk and begin speaking to each other again

So yeah, happy ending but TONS of angst. I know right? Amazing❤️

Do you‐uhh.

Do you ever think that the Green kids resent Alicent for being on Rhaenyra's side?

Because um. Obviously watching their gaslit, grief-stricken mother charging and making the Princess bleed for Aemond loosing an eye with no justice is harrowing and incredible and terrifying. (Our mother loves us! She's begging for our Father to care! She slashed the Princess! She does love us!) And then years later Alicent is telling Aegon to spare Rhaenyra, holding Rhaenyra's arm infront of them at supper.

Did they ever feel as if they were the late ones? The invaders? Do you think they felt as if it was a constant fight for their Mother's affections? Can you imagine the reproach they mustve felt, knowing that they were unwanted (What have I done but what was expected of me?) watching their mother raise hell for them, then always looking around for one of the objects of their agony?

#because. yes. #they came late #rhaenyra was alicent's first. alicent was rhaenyra's first. #every now and then theyre trapped watching their mother and one of the avatars of their pain rotate around each other #yearning... mourning... yearning.. #and then they look at the mess of their mothers life and think that all she loves is rhaenyra. #she loves her kids and her kids love her back but there is always this ominous cloud hovering over them all saying 'this isnt right' #do you think the greens resent her love of rhaenyra? #pro alicent hightower #alicent hightower #aegon ii targaryen #aemond targaryen #helaena the dreamer #helaena targaryen #halaena targaryen #daeron targaryen #anti viserys i targaryen #otto hightower #team green #the greens fucking burn huh #targs through and through

Thinking about ATLA and how Ursa was just a terrible mom all around

I know everyone talks about her favoritism towards Zuko vs Azula, but she set up a lot of traumatizing events for her own son, starting with the letters claiming he was the son of her lover in the comics. If I remember correctly, he was actually Ozai's son, blood-related and all, and had purposely made it seem like Zuko was some other man's son. And much later in the comics, she admits she had forgotten about Zuko and Azula, claiming she brainwashed herself into forgetting them. Imo, she just wasn't a decent mom, not to Azula nor Zuko in any capacity, and I genuinely believe that Iroh was the only good thing in Azula and Zuko's life and I just want a whole fanfic dedicated to him taking custody of Azula and Zuko before the events of the hunt of Aang and escaping the palace with them. Like flees to a neighboring Earth Kingdom and raises them, basically adopts Toph at somepoint, and they all join Aang on the mission to defeat Ozai and dethrone him.

The idea of Quaritch instinctively curling his tail around spider is so cute, he’s just trying to keep him safe

I can't get the image out of my head, cause, not only is spider just barely a little more than half his size, but he is being mother hen'd by a glorified blue sphynx cat on steroids.

so when this said, 9'5 blue sphynx cat on steroids, is towering over him, he's got his tail wrapped around the kids waist, flicking it about whenever someone gets to close, and compared to spider it's quite strong, so he uses it like a barrier.

and the team so makes fun of him for it, cause it is pretty funny, and he's always so defensive about it;

"well at least I can keep track of him"

"well at least he ain't bothering no one"

"at least someones taking care of him"

but spider's just enjoying the show. he feels safe and wanted, his dads making a fool of himself, and his team (his family) is happy. what more could he want?

#spider socorro #miles spider socorro #miles socorro #avatar spider #spider avatar #quaritch #avatar 2 #quaritch likes to know where his kid is at all times #and if he has to herd him with his tail #so be it #it doubles as a defensive measure #cause no one outside of the team is allowed within arms length of the boy #the rda barely puts up with the boy and he's not taking any risks

Not really a hot take, kinda based in canon actually, but Mako is really good with kids while Bolin sucks at childcare.

#Bolin and Meelo have longstanding beef #Mako is the Air Temple kids favourite member of team Avatar other than Korra ofc #legend of korra #mako lok #mako avatar #mako #bolin #avatar legend of korra #listen Mako has been raising his kid brother since age eight #the man is a full blown single mother

Another part of Adams' interview that I liked was when he talked about Wally's rationale in training his kids and letting them be heroes. He said that Wally came to the realization that his children are ridiculously powerful and with that much power he either had to teach them to be heroes or the power would corrupt and they'd be villains. And that... says so much about Wally as a character.

Also when Adams said it he included Maxine in that and vaguely referred to 'Wally training kids'. Not 'Wally training his kids', no, he said 'Wally training kids'. Which... makes me think that there are maybe a few superpowerful kids that Wally comes across and goes 'aw fuck, now I gotta train this kid before they blow up the world' so that's interesting

#he definitely said that Wally trains Maxine #which makes sense #shes the avatar for every living being in the universe and insanely powerful #but he said it in a way that implied multiple children #also later he said that he had ideas for a team for Jai Irey Maxine and other kids he had planned #so #ever seen Zoom? the movie Zoom with Tim Allen? its about a speedster who trains a bunch of superpowered kids #anyway Wallys gonna be a way cooler and better Zoom #dc #dc comics #the flash #kid flash #wally west

Pathfinders in Space (ABC, 1960)

"Now, the remainder of us have fifteen hours of oxygen left. That leaves fifteen hours in which to complete our research here."

"Well, what's the good of all that if you can't come back with it?"

"The moon never destroys her treasures, Henderson. We shall leave a record and it'll be preserved in the vacuum of the caves. And the future expeditions you mentioned, they will find it."

Gerald Flood's everyman journalist is a nicely constructed audience avatar but it's missing cheese expert Peter #Williams who gives the orders (and regularly imperils his own children). a lot of fun! well worth seeking out for old tv fans #also needless to say the various miniatures and fx work is frankly adorable. #and shoutout to Prof Mary Meadows‚ it's nice to have a kickass lady scientist in a show this old (and who remains cooler and more capable #than her male counterparts on more than one occasion).

pretty much just consumed all of the king's avatar content out there (watched the donghua, watching the drama, read select chapters of the books/webtoon past where the donghua was at). with all the difference between all the iterations, there is one thing that pretty much stays the same:

ye xiu really out here collecting rookie kiddos like nothing

#building a team for his return more like building an after school program for all these rookies #he also get's himself another old guy to help him watch the kids #except wei chen is an enabler and just makes his life harder lol #the king's avatar #qian zhi gao shou #qzgs #anyways just i just loaded a lot of tka content into my queue #cause like... its my new hyperfixation atm #onigiri talks

Btw I liked the atla live action in so far as live actions will never live up to our expectations so I kept them low, but the real positive outcome is that it made me want to do a rewatch of the originals and I do not regret any of it

#I’m on book 3 I love my little guys #zuko is getting close to his 💕redemption💕 he’s having thots and feelings #I can’t wait for him to join team avatar he’s my little guy for real #I had the biggest biggest biggest crush on him when I was a kid #and now he’s a little guy to me I love him so much #anyway I still have a week of living all on my lonesome so I might give korra another chance once I finish #gotta fill this time up somehow

Now that I've finished Kat's anime, I want to highlight these two specific moments from the final episode.

These are two beliefs that I hold very strongly, and I rarely see them expressed well, so I want to talk about them for a second.

The first one, being the idea that we do not stand where we are on our own. This is something that I think about a lot because of my sexual orientation and gender identity. There's certainly still a long way that we have to go, but I was able to come out at 16 because of the progress that was made by those who came before me. It is only because of those who were brave enough to stand up when it wasn't safe that there's a world where it's (more) safe. I live in a country where I can marry whoever I want and was enabled to ask for my pronouns on my nametag at work because of the bravery of those who came before. Of course, things aren't perfect. There is still so much to do. But that's for me to do. I owe it to the memories of those who came before me and to the dreams of those who will come after to continue the fight. The anime ended up being a beautiful example of that, and of the idea that we have to, one day, pass things onto the next generation.

Which brings me to my second thing. "The power of friendship" is, admittedly, a bit trite. This is ultimately a kid's show. But it would have been so easy for them to paint it as a mystery that Professor Layton was able to solve all on his own, that he didn't need anyone, because he's so smart. (You see that a lot in adaptions of Sherlock Holmes, but that's a rant for another time.) But they didn't. This puzzle, like most of them, were solved by working together. I made a post when I completed all of the puzzles in Kat's game that was kind of about this, but there's a quote from Newsies that I love that applies here: being boss doesn't mean you have all the answers, just the brains to recognize the right one when you hear it. It's not about being the smartest person in the room, it's about teamwork and delegating and everyone working together. I know I've posted multiple times before about how most episodes of the anime simply come down to love, and I stand by it. No man is an island, after all, and when we care about each other and the bonds that we form together, we succeed together. While maybe a little cliché, I found the anime to be a touching meditation on that.

#layton mystery tanteisha #lmt spoilers #katrielle layton #hershel layton #i love love loved the anime #like yeah it is a kids show #but i have always been a strong proponent that just because something is primarily aimed at kids #does not mean it doesn't have value for adults #the lego movies #for instance #are absolutely some of the funniest movies i have ever seen #and have some of the best messages #and i will break a chair over the head of anyone who tries to dismiss avatar the last airbender as media for children #and this anime was no exception #it was an absolute delight #i'm very grateful to the team who worked to translate it #and to the team that made it #holy crap if i start talking about the layton and katrielle reunion #i will never stop #i had like a specific list of things i wanted from it #(okay it wasn't a very long list #i wanted a hug and for him to say he was sorry) #and they blew it out of the park #it was perfect #gave me everything i wanted and more #i never would have dared to let myself dream to see a grown man cry and for the narrative to allow it and not turn him into a punchline #but they did!!! #he hugged his daughter and he cried and it was beautiful!!!!!! #queue takumi defense squad

Am I really going to dive back into fandom bc I rewatched ATLA and LoK...

#T #Am I actually following a fan comic bc I want more Avatar content...who am I 😭😭😭 #Also LoK had its issues but rewatching it... it didn't have that many problems it was a genuinely good show #And it was nice watching a kids' show but with adult characters #Well Team Avatar is like in their early 20s in the last season they're like 17 in the others #And the way they explored Korra's fears and traumas and healing...actually genuinely good #There were things that could have been better for sure but overall a very good time

[shopcat]

now i'm pondering an atla zombie apocalypse au ... which would be slightly more hardcore bc they don't have guns but that just means killing zombies with bows and swords that's cool... and im just going to go ahead and say bending doesn't work against them/actually hurt them bc of spirit world reasons bc in my head it would be some sort of messed up spirit world disease that you can catch but the majority of them Are just messed up spirits so that people won't feel too bad about like. killing people who used to be people but you could still potentially get sick. and bc you can't bend in the spirit world etc. but you can still stab them and such. because otherwise there'd be no stakes. i do get that the appeal of post apocalypse media is modern society crumbles too but idrc who care..

#🐾 #or let's say DIRECT bending doesn't hurt them for spirit world reasons #like you can't fire bend at them but you can keep them away with earthbending or whatever #and a rock falling on them would still kill them etc which means people just need to get creative #or you could set an area on fire and then it's not YOUR fire #otherwise firebenders would be too op LOL. though they kind of already are aren't they #well i guess that's the whole point #anywya this is fun to think about. zuko would totally carry his swords around #nonbenders would ABSOLUTELY slay and i think travelling and living on the water would be more popular #and at high elevations... i think people would live outside the air temples but wouldn't go in #just out of like respect #groups like the freedom fighters and kyoshi warriors become like the leading forces against the zombies #and team avatar ofc #i'm not sure if the war started then just stopped early or not .. or when aang woke up #i'd like to make him a tad older just because little kids in the apocalypse is a bit too harrowing 😭 #or maybe like ok u can't set the proper spirits on fire bc well u can't do that anyway i don't think ? same w other elements but you COULD #hurt infected people but they have resistance to it all #but people try to not KILL infected people or something... and probably they heal unnaturally #i dunno. i think about this stuff too hard #it needs to be apocalypse worthy but not a totally unliveable one bc that'd be depressing

I live down the street from a school that's also a Pokémon Go gym so I've been going up there to kick all the kids pokemon out and taking it over with my avatar dressed as team rocket everyday. I'm like their one man Jessie and James, I like to think
