did you guys know i love piandao
oh my GOSH
they think their ship is the best in the world amd the solution to all debates but NO they just pmo
i honestly tried so hard to like zukka and just coexist with its shippers but why are they SO ANNOYING
Excuse me, but why does the zukka shipper seems to be so much in need of attention? Like they be like
" oh we're here enjoying the show "( the ship war )
"oh we're the Switzerland !" ( No )
" we're a better ship than zutara ! " ( No )
" we solved the ship war ! " ( No )
Idk there are many other ship that are just here , really just enjoying their ship ( taang, harutara, jingtara ty luko ect ) while the zukka are " please don't forget us 🥺 please notice us 🥺 ! "
I just don't understand
I don't mind the ship but like... 🤨 idk if you know what I mean
i wish one day Korra and the krew visit the Fire Nation Capital and we see Izumi and her daughter appearing in the comics
i fucking hate him loll
Zuko has far more restraint than I do.
Because if I was Fire Lord, and this son of a bitch was rubbing it in my face that he was with my ex ... that's an instant Agni-Kai ... or a public execution.
Do you ever think Aang wakes and forgets he isn't a hundred years in the past...
The fact that here on tumblr there's an anti aang tag where grown ass people are calling him rapist, racist and abuser is fucking insane
This site is literally a breeding ground for some of the most deranged fandom behavior ever
why do kids cartoons always have the best most nuanced and layered plots and characters and adult cartoons are always just “fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck”
there is a serious lack of discussion about how mai is zuko’s safe space. we see this in their first appearance together (that’s not a flashback). when mai asks him a simple question, “aren’t you cold?” and zuko, who has a hard time opening up and expressing emotions that aren’t anger or angst, freely and openly starts to tell her his worries about going back to the fire nation. and while people love to chastise mai on her reply, “I just asked if you were cold, I didn’t ask for your whole life story”, I think they misunderstand her approach to this. zuko is worrying and overthinking about something he cannot change, something that will only drive him crazy and she tries to distract him with a joke. and it might fall flat, but she realises this and suddenly she is comforting him with her touch. her hand reaching out so casually towards scar like it’s not a big deal, because it’s not. they’ve known each other for a long time, they’ve grown up together and their relationship was a long time coming. and zuko leans into her hand, and her kiss, without thinking twice about it. because mai is familiar, and mai is comfort and that can be seen when you contrast it to song’s attempting at touch his scar, and how quickly he was to stop her. but it’s not only this moment that showcases mai as his safe space, but also when he’s back in the fire nation. when he’s stressed out and going through a tumultuous time, not knowing what’s right and wrong or what he should do next, it’s mai he goes to. we see this in “nightmares and daydreams” when he spends all day at her house, when he can’t stand being in the palace anymore, mai and her house and her bedroom is his safe space. and here we see her trying to comfort him, trying to say the war meeting is stupid, it would be be boring anyway, and shall we go for a ride around town? it’ll be fun… and even though he’s still sad, he goes back to her house on the day of the war meeting and she’s making him tea. and even when he does get invited to the all day war meeting, she goes to the palace with him and waits for him all day, to see if it went well and to comfort him if it didn’t. when he says that it was everything he thought wanted it to be, she’s immediately happy for him, reaching out to touch him with a smile on her face. mai is who zuko feels safe and comfortable around, even in his vulnerable moments and it’s something we should talk about.
zuko making up for his past mistakes in his relationship with mai. everything is basically set for them to begin their relationship again after a while and y’all say they won’t be endgame 🤦♀️
well, Ashes of The Academy was such a nice read. this part in particular stayed with me because it reminded me of their argument during the Beach episode and looked at them now learning to trust and resolve their disagreements in a healthy way 😚
Of course, this is the generation that will lead the Fire Nation down a better path.
Now I wish we had more of this. a whole series of Mai continuing to find her purpose. Starting first with teaching and then perhaps other aspects of Fire Nation society too.
