A little practice 💧

[veryever]

The "Hakoda adopts Zuko" thing is annoying but the "Hakoda adopts Aang" thing feels like an over correction.

I don't think Hakoda would be able to get truly close to Aang for quite a few years post-finale.

Not because Hakoda dislikes Aang or views him with suspicions. But because getting close to your teenage daughter's boyfriend is difficult under normal circumstances. But Aang is not just that, he's a demi-God teenage diplomat Hakoda also has to have a professional relationship with as a world leader. Managing either relationship would be hard, but at the same time? Complex!

This doesn't even account for the times when Katara gets pissed off at her dad over something and doesn't like him talking to Aang. Because that's a canon displayed behavior of hers, and it's understandable! Your parents being buddy-buddy with your social group when you're upset with them is maddening. But again- Hakoda has no choice.

Aang would be close and get dotted on by Kanna (he was raised by an old guy, old people love him) and respectful but playful with Pakku (he requires Aang address him as Sifu, but that's his only win). But the barrier of formality with Hakoda would last a while.

Fire lily

           You were the daughter of one of the world's most ruthless pirates. In his youth, your father had been Fire Lord Azulon's right-hand man and had led the fire nation's navy to victory. He had conquered the most important port cities of the Earth Kingdom. Following a political dispute and an Agni Kai that your father won with great difficulty, he chose to betray the Fire Nation. Many powerful men of the navy joined him and formed the Ruby Claw, a ruthless and greedy crew that generally preyed on fire navy ships and sometimes Earth Kingdom ships. 

          You inherited cunning, intelligence and hatred for the Fire Nation. This very hatred made you start a suicidal fight with more than 50 enemy ships. You led your men to victory but you were seriously wounded and taken prisoner. The 3 remaining ships immediately set off for the Capital to surrender you to the Fire Lord. On the way you lost consciousness due to blood loss. You woke up with a bad headache. You got up from the bed you were sitting on and laughed at the stupidity of those who captured you, what idiots! They didn't even tie your hands! Then you looked at the room you were in and froze. Furs and wood, blue and brown everywhere, those idiots lost you to a crew of water tribes! Now you understood why your father said that without his iron hand the fire nation's navy would not have been able to withstand even some wooden ships.You got out as easily as you could on the deck trying to beat the dizziness and the headache. You didn't get to analyze the ship and the crew very well because the captain appeared in front of you instantly. You got scared and almost hit him in the face but you calmed down quickly. The man was not much taller than you and he looked extremely worried. 

Hakoda: are you ok miss? You were unconscious for 2 days. You were captured by the Fire Nation, do you remember how or why? 

Y/N: 2 days? I feel like I haven't drunk anything in ages! I don't remember for sure how, I think an idiot managed to hit my head on the deck. They probably wanted to organize a beautiful public execution for me. You know, the presence of the Fire Lord, the sages and all that. It would have been a real honor to know that I will be executed by a coward who hides behind his 14-year-old daughter.

 Now both the captain and the crew members who heard your little speech looked at you terrified. You chuckled and grabbed the first bottle of alcohol you could find then drank it all in one gulp. 

Y/n: Oh! where are my manners, if it can be said that I ever had any. I'm Y/N, Y/F/N's daughter. Thank you for saving me from those coal heads. 

Hakoda: I am Hakoda, Chief of the Southern Water Tribe. There is no need to thank us, the enemies of our enemies are our friends. Also, I couldn't have sat and watched you die at the hands of those monsters.

 Y/N: how sweet of you.

 You notice another water tribe ship approaching you. A tall man steps down from the side of the ship and hugs Hakoda. You looked at his arm covered with burns, sighing. You hated the Fire Nation more every day, those bastards deserved every robbery and attack you led against them. Someone had to give them a taste of their own medicine. Your train of thought was interrupted by your new savior who introduced the man as Bato, his best friend. You were invited to dine with them and listen to Bato's stories. It seems that Hakoda had children and that they were traveling with the avatar. So goodbye chances to have a good time with the handsome man next to you. Why are all handsome men taken and you only attract idiots like Zhao?! If that tin head tries to offer you the honor of marrying him one more time, I swear that one of you will die in agony, and it won't be you.

Bato: I don't mean to be rude but are you a firebender? only that the style in which you tie your hair, your name and your clothes are common in the Fire Nation.

 Y/N: good observation, yes I am a firebender. I belong to a noble family but my father betrayed the Fire Nation before I was born. Now I fight the Fire Nation in a less traditional way.

 Bato: how do you mean less traditional? 

Y/N: I'm the captain of the Rubin Claw.

 The two men laughed heartily for a few moments then realized that you were as serious as possible. Hakoda looks at you in absolute terror.

 Hakoda: Don't you think it's a bit dangerous? You could die for La's name! The Fire Nation is ruthless! 

Y/N: oh! Seriously? I didn't know that at all! 

 You point at Bato's arm unimpressed. Hakoda sighs deeply and goes to his mattress to sleep. 

Y/N: not that I don't think he's cute, but what's the deal with him? Does he have a savior complex or am I too irresistible? 

Bato looks at his friend knowingly.You notice that the taller man is lost in his thoughts. You look at him with a raised eyebrow.

 Y/N: Listen Bato, I know I may seem rude and uncaring but I really like your friend. He is different from all the men I have known.

 Bato: why do I have the impression that you only knew pirates and captains of the Fire Nation Navy? 

Y/N: ok ok. You got me. But I was serious when I said that I like him. I want you to be honest, do you think I have a chance with him? I know he has children but you haven't mentioned anything about a wife or girlfriend. 

Bato: His wife died a few years ago in a raid, we don't like to talk about her because her death is still an open wound. 

Y/N: I'm really sorry, good people don't deserve to die or lose their loved ones like this. Please send your condolences to the children, I know what it's like to lose your mother at a young age.

 Bato: I will Y/N, I will. 

You went back to the cabin where you woke up and quickly fell asleep. You were woken shortly after sunrise by some urgent knocks on the door. You opened the door only to see Bato looking panicked. You went out on deck and noticed that the water tribe ships were surrounded by your own ships. You grinned dangerously when you saw Akain, your right hand and also your half brother, coming towards you. 

Y/N: what took you so long to find me son of a rattlesnake?

 Akain: I would have found you sooner if you had stayed on the fire nation ship and we have the same father little viper. 

Akain playfully hits you on the head and Hakoda immediately comes towards you. Your brother looks at the water tribe man amused. You roll your eyes and put the firebender back on his ship telling him to wait for you. You return to the watertribe ship and hug Bato. You notice that Hakoda is trying to convince you to give up being a pirate and you laugh briefly. You pull the captain into a passionate kiss. He is frozen for a few seconds and then he responds to your kiss. 

Akain: so when you told me that you befriended the watertribe captain, did you mean friendship with benefits? 

You break the kiss and pull away from Hakoda blushing furiously. 

Y/N: I'm ashamed that we have the same blood, you mentally retarded idiot! 

You return to your ship and kick your brother because he collapsed from laughing so much. While your ships are moving away you look at Hakoda who seemed to want to swim to you. 

Hakoda: You can't kiss me and walk away like that! 

Y/N: Then come and get me my love! 

You giggle at his disappointed look and at Bato who tries to hold him in place. You hope that you will see each other again someday and that maybe, just maybe, you will be able to continue what you started without your annoying brother bothering you.

Let's say you had a big surprise when you snuck into Boiling Rock to help your brother escape and that Hakoda will not lose you again. This world is far too dangerous for a fire lily like you.

A very long time ago (2013), I started an avatar au where Hiccup was the next avatar (and prince of the fire nation, because dragons, no I wasn’t looking at his eye colour which would make him from the earth kingdom, instead, I followed the dragons because fire nation had dragons) and Jack was a waterbending ‘ice’ spirit who was born a non-bender but was chosen by the moon spirit after saving his sister’s life.

At first this was going to be a big ROTBTD-story, with many, many characters, but over the years a lot of things have changed (aka I began to see the beauty in HiJack and decided they should get together, as they didn’t in the original story)

I’m thinking of bringing back life to this au, though I should add a ’try’ somewhere in there!

Under the cut I will add the very first drawings I made of this au back in 2013!

So Hiccup is the son of the fire lord, and also the next avatar born from the firenation. He has a dragon called toothless, and has been working hard to master all of the elements, except he's having a very hard time figuring out waterbending. When he moves to the south pole in search for another master, he meets Jack, who turns out to be invisible to everybody but him.

Jack is a once-human spirit who becomes the avatar's next waterbending master - despite originally being born a non-bender. Jack has lived many years invisible to the human eye, until Hiccup finds him one day in a snow storm and mistakes him to be in danger. They become close friends very quickly.

I also started a comic, but quickly gave that up again. I don't have patience to make comics :(

Also, this used to be the original gang; Heather the airbending nomad, Rapunzel the waterbending healer, Hiccup, Jack, and then Merida, the non-bending rebel. I'm not sure if I'm going to fit them into the story again, but I'll figure something out ^^

[veryever]

the costumes in the new live action still look better with some wear to them. I still wish Aang's costume had a lot more texture to the fabric (and I think his little cape being embroidered or a stiffer woven fabric. would have added some visual interest vs now where it looks like there's gotta be interfacing to keep the collar up)

but I'm not digging the watertribe clothing. This looks like a thin tanned hide, which doesn't seem warm enough for the climate conditions :/

Here it's not that the quality if the craftmanship is low, but I don't think the watertribe needs to have blue outer wear. It's a convention that is used in non-realism depictions of what IRL would be white/gray/tan fur. This is one thing the M.Night film did right.

I assume this was filmed on the volume stage, so we won't see any bts pictures to see of the cast needed blankets to actually stay warm in the arctic in winter lol

Keelak waterbending - im obsessed with her omfg

[low-budget-korra]

Let's talk (again) about representation in media

What drove me to write about this was twitter being mad at the Atla live action casting. And no, it wasn't because of Ian.

First of all let me talk about the elephant in the room. Avatar is fictional, it's not a documentary or a biography, Avatar is fictional. Sure, it's heavily inspired by asian and native culture, in the clothes, the architecture, the appearance of the people, their history, their beliefs...but still, it's fictional.

Let's take Watertribe for example. They live on the poles like the Inuits, they have a brownish skin tone like southern native people(like south and central america natives), The canal-navigated city of the Northern Water Tribe resembles the city of Tenochtitlan, the ancient capital of the Aztec empire , Sokka's Boomerang is from Australia aboriginals, their ships resemble Polynesians ones, their spiritual practices comes from native, Chinese na Japanese myths... I could go on and on but I think you guys understand what I mean.

So seriously, for me, everyone from Inuit to Polynesian natives could portray characters from the Watertribe since the Watertribe was inspired by it as I just wrote about it. Actually, the Watertribe is the most diverse one when it comes to its inspiration sources if you think about it

I understand it would be dope to have a Inuit actress playing Katara and Sokka but damn can't some people celebrate the little victory's?! Can't some people don't understand how enormous it is to have a high budget tv show having mostly, actually, basically all of the cast coming from native and asian backgrounds? Did they forget the whitewashed movie?

I've talked about this before when people were complaining about Yara and Lev not being the protagonists characters and with Yara dying in TLOU2 like wtf are you complaining about it? Everybody died in that game, including the beloved protagonist of the first one. Lev, a trans boy, was essential to the history of one of the protagonists. This was HUGE coming from an industry full of incels.

Sure, we still have A LOT to fight for and a lot to conquer but can't we be happy for the little steps forward? We need to support those little changes cuz if we don't we will be left with nothing.
