......suddenly struck by the idea for a piece of worldbuilding of "fae don't like iron bc it is the most stable element*"
*as in elements higher you can extract energy via fission and lower you can extract energy via fusion but iron itself there is no excess binding energy to extract at all

this was going to be in the zine but the plot got away with me so I don’t have time to make another 1,000 page comic.
I will push out a zine if it kills me but this is at least proof ideas are being had.

Hi. Since you are so generous I want to ask about the college au. Do you have any ideas of the Katara 's side of the story? Or is it a spoiler? And I'd also love to know anything about Sokka-Suki-Yue co-living. How Suki and Yue became a couple? How did Sokka handle this?
This story is a very interesting version of college modern-au and I want to explore your universe more :)
Katara's story follows canon, kind of. She lives in the south pole with her mother, the village is very depleted as the men, like in canon, went off to war. Kya is very hands on with her daughter, helping her hide her bending.
More under the cut
For context, they went south because Kanna mentioned the two poles to Kya and explained how misogynistic the north pole was. They decided to chance going south and the village was fine when they got there. They were told about the raiders coming and taking waterbenders and while Kya wanted to leave she also didn't know where else to go, she'd used all the money she'd brought with her getting her and Katara to the south pole. The men also warned it was probably the same up north so the south pole agreed to help hide katara. Then the raids happen and while Kya was injured, she wasn't killed.
They find Aang in an iceberg and it's only when he also says he needs a waterbending teacher and he has a way to get them there- Appa- that Kya organises a trip to the north pole. It's a lot more organised than in canon.
The fire family's story is a lot different too. So, Ozai is the one tracking Aang down not Zuko. Ursa didn't leave or poison Azulon. Zuko's face was burned because he asked his dad why Iroh and Lu Ten were in the army and Ozai wasn't which, obviously, offended Ozai's fragile ego and he challenged his child to an Agni Kai to prove he wasn't as weak as Zuko was implying. Iroh took Zuko off his brother, with Azulon's permission (I am of the opinion that Azulon never wanted Zuko dead and it was just something used as a way to get Ursa to poison Azulon to save Zuko's life) and he's raised as Lu Ten's brother. Ozai is basically ostracised and believes that bringing the Avatar to his father will restore his status in the Fire Nation since, well, he did literally challenge a child to an Agni Kai.
This is how Zuko is allowed to go to college in the first place. As the, now, third in line, he's likely going to be a diplomat when Lu Ten takes the throne after Iroh. He's told about the fragile peace with the other land and poses the question on what they're like, Azulon takes this as a great opportunity to show Zuko just how superior their side is and sends him over to the other side on an 'exchange' program. Zuko has a lot of limitations placed on him but he finds he doesn't mind it. It's also easier when he finds that the water tribe had the same idea and he finds a kindred soul in Yue.
Suki gets mixed up in this because she used to be a Kyoshi warrior but, after Zuko was given to Iroh a summons went out for a personal guard for young Zuko (since Zuko is a traumatised flight risk and Lu Ten refuses to let anyone in Ozai's faction near his cousin again). Suki sees this as an opportunity to spy on the Fire Nation and is taken on straight away by Lu Ten (who basically takes over this process of finding a bodyguard after his father proves to be useless). Lu Ten sees Suki as someone who can be both a friend and protector of his cousin and after his near miss in Ba Sing Se and being healed by earthbenders in a distant village, he's a lot more sympathetic to the other side than he wants his superiors to think. He's the one who insists Suki go with Zuko to college as, that's basically her job.
Suki likes the other side a lot. The non benders make her feel more normal and it's nice that she can do martial arts without having to look for any elements being flung at her. She gets to know Yue through Zuko. Zuko gets to know Yue because he's socially awkward and Yue finds him endearing, the two of them bonding over weird expectations and their overwhelming duty to their land.
Suki, at first, takes Yue on as another job since the northern water tribe sent Yue incognito on her own. Suki thinks this is ridiculous and spends half her time teaching Yue to defend herself and the other half keeping watch over her. Yue thinks this is funny since she's supposed to be looking after Zuko but, well, Zuko doesn't really need protecting, he just needs someone to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid like set fire to their dorm curtains. Suki is Yue's link to understanding the lower class and Suki just finds Yue surprisingly mischievous, the two getting along as friends.
They grow closer once they both dump Sokka. Yue finds out that girls are an option after Suki mentions it one day and Suki had her eye on Yue from the start but figured she was straight so didn't bother. (Zuko is sick of both of them simping over the other to him.)
As for when they get together, Sokka's very supportive. They all end on amicable terms. They all found out they liked each other as friends more than partners and while it was a little awkward at first to see his exes get together, Sokka supports them wholeheartedly. Namely because, by then he knows a bit about their backstories and really wanted Yue to live life as she wanted to live it and not for others and for Suki to just do what made her happy.
They all love Sokka too. They adopt them into their little group and use him as a translator for things they don't understand. Sokka thinks he's surrounded by out of touch rich kids and doesn't really see anything weird about them until he lands in the ATLA world. They use Sokka to help with grocery shopping, clothes shopping, slang, driving, money and when they realise that he's having a hard time finding somewhere affordable to live for their second year they all agree to chip in and help him. The thing is, they know he wouldn't accept any monetary help so they just decided to move in with him. Suki was on edge with the idea of an apartment after so many break ins at the palace. She likes the idea of somewhere she can easily move around. Sokka agrees that a caravan is a lot cheaper than an apartment as well. They settle on a campervan. An old beat up thing they usually park in the middle of nowhere and drive around to classes and the shops or wherever Suki wants to take them. Zuko likes it because the trees are away from prying eyes enough he can slip away and practice his bending and Yue is just there for the adventure.
I think I need to work out a few more details before giving more information than this. But this is the dynamic at the start of the would be comic that might get made at some point in the future.

Yeah Mr. Darcy’s proposal was a complete turd and a half but you gotta understand. You got your life together. A good career, stable income, retirement plan, all that shit together. And you meet this girl. And she’s everything. Clever, outspoken, funny, calls you on your bullshit. Grade A cutie, right? And she doesn’t go out of her way to spend time with you but she’s nice, and sometimes you catch her looking your way in a way that makes you think you might have a shot.
But her family. Holy shit.
First off, it’s p much ALL women, and mostly UNMARRIED women, which at this time means of something happens to her dad then you’re financially responsible for like. Four grown ass adults, potentially forever
Because mom in law is DEFINITELY gonna need someone to take care of her when dad in law kicks it, and they have like. NO money. So already you’re accepting that if all goes well, you’re gonna be one random old bag’s retirement home. That’s expensive and exhausting, yeah? Imagine asking someone on a first date knowing that if they say yes and things go good her high-strung chihuahua mother is gonna move in with you. IMAGINE.
And girly’s other sisters. Well, one is a sweetheart, yeah, so she probably won’t be an issue, but that still leaves three more, and two of those ones are INSUFFERABLE. Never went to school, dumb as rocks, spend cash like it’s toilet paper
And while one of the two is young still and might grow out of it the OTHER one is actively torpedo’ing her entire family’s reputation by wandering off with random dudes and chasing ass. She’s never gonna work, she can’t build connections, she’s a fucking sinkhole, and she’s being led on by the same goddamn con man ass leeching tit who’s been bleeding you dry while telling anyone who’ll listen that your family is full of ratty thieving bastards.
And if he dumps her after a week- WHICH YOU KNOW HIS BITCH ASS IS GONNA- you’ve got a SECOND UNMARRIABLE GROWN ASS ADULT TO PROVIDE FOR. And you KNOW she’s gonna be a tantrum-throwing little shit about it, and it’s not like you can lock her in the basement or something, you’re gonna have to bring her fucking. Everywhere. And give her an allowance and shit while she contributes zero, because again, she NEVER GOT EDUCATED AND HAS NO MARKETABLE SKILLS. She’s not even good to TALK to. FUCK
And you’re looking at this girl’s father like “please for the love of fuck get your spawn under control, marry them off, get them working on their résumé, learning to sew or be nursemaids or manage staff or SOMETHING, yall got no money and one foot in the grave” and that old man just laughs like “haha yeah, what can you do. lol”
So you’re looking to the mom and finally it’s making sense how she got that twitch in her eye and as MUCH as she is you’re starting to realize she’s the SMART one, desperately throwing her armloads of girls at random men like they’re a bunch of fucking lifeboats bobbing around a sinking ship, like yes Jesus Christ sweetly that life boat IS old and ugly and kind of boring but for FUCKS SAKE PICK ONE
And you look back at this girl who is ALSO REFUSING THE LIFE BOATS BY THE WAY and god damn it she’s still the most radiant thing you’ve ever seen so fine, fuck it, Christ alive, you’ll do it. You’ll shoot your shot. She’s everything you’ve ever wanted in anybody abut it’s not even just about that anymore, it’s about being her best fucking shot at a future, and even if she doesn’t like you all that much she’s still gonna say yes and that might break your heart a bit knowing it’s about the money but who knows, maybe it will at least be civil, or companionable, and even if she doesn’t LOVE you at least you’ll know she’s well and cared for
And so you’ll do it. You’ll take on the neurotic stress mess mother in law, the absent father, the broke ass wingnut no brain no money no future airhead sisters, the bad mannered relatives and the embarrassing behaviour and the impending future of sharing your entire shit with a clown parade of freeloaders, you’ll risk it all and accept the absolute certainty of financial ruin and emotional exhaustion for the rest of your whole ass life and you’ll make your own family deal with it too, you’ll do it, you’ll fucking DO IT, you stupid lovesick motherfucker
And so you go to this chick like “look. Your whole family’s a shitshow. You’ve got fucking nothing and you’re gonna die on the street. But for some reason- and I don’t get it either- I’ve fallen in love with you, and I wish I didn’t, but I did, so I’m telling you that whether you like me or not, I’ll give you everything. I’ll give you everything even if it’s the dumbest shit I ever done. Fuck my stupid Baka ass, I’ll marry you.”
And she looks at you- having heard or considered absolutely none of your months-long internal debate and monologue- and goes “The fuck did you just say about my family, you son of a bitch?”
And the shock of that is enough to jolt you back into a reality where you are able to actually hear and process what just came out of your damn mouth And yeah
Yeah, I think I kinda get it
