and ppl still have the audacity to say they shouldn't be together, smh they're teenagers not everything is gonna be perfect

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.

In the uncut script of avatar mai was supposed to give Zuko a volcanic heart shaped rock and he was supposed to hold onto it during his banishment.

FOR REAL?!! omg thats so cute;;;!!

I just finished my Atla rewatch and I wrote down everytime Zuko smiles

He smiles a total of fifty-two times, smirks eight times and laughs twice

2% of his smiles are in S1

23% in S2

75% in S3

He smiles the most in S3 E5 "The Beach"

His 3 main reasons for smiling are

#3 Joking/Laughing with the Gaang: 7 Smiles

#2 Speaking to or about Mai: 12 Smiles (and his two biggest ones)

#1 Speaking to or about Uncle Iroh

EDIT: I SHOULD CLARIFY I DID NOT COUNT ANY FLASHBACKS BECAUSE ZUKO IS SO FAR REMOVED FROM HIS SOMEWHAT HAPPY CHILDHOOD

And I remember when I met him, it was so clear that he was the only one for me. We both knew it, right away. And as the years went on, things got more difficult – we were faced with more challenges.I begged him to stay. Try to remember what we had at the beginning. He was charismatic, magnetic, electric and everybody knew it. When he walked in every woman’s head turned, everyone stood up to talk to him. He was like this hybrid, this mix of a man who couldn’t contain himself.I always got the sense that he became torn between being a good person and missing out on all of the opportunities that life could offer a man as magnificent as him. And in that way I… understood him. And I loved him. I loved him, I loved him, I loved him. And I still love him.

I love him.

My overall review of Unheard EP:

All four songs 10/10

My soul being intact after Fare Well 0/10

Andrew being himself and writing songs like we love him for 10/10

This man in general 100/10

[cherrywinee01]

Poor Zuko

He just wanted to join the Gaang but now the blind girl is moving metal, the sweet watergirl is bending blood and the kid is talking to spirits

At least he can count on Sokka to be normal. Oh, where did you say that sword was from?

Yeah, that’s right, fucking outer space

[cherrywinee01]

EMPIRE NOW??? the production is insane. the guitar. arsonist's lullabye vibes. andrew giving us PIPES on the high notes in the pre-chorus??? the BASS???? this song was made for me. jaw literally dropped. makes me want to get in a fistfight with an englishman 1000/10
