REAL TALK one of the few things Solas is not toxic about is being an ex. If Lavellan did end up involved in any kind of romance with anyone else* there wouldn't be any jealousy or 'shit i gotta up my game to get back in there.' He'd still pine obviously, because he's Solas, but he's the one that broke it off. He forsook the right to be jealous.

*except someone he hates, in which case it wouldn't be jealousy so much as 'THIS FUCKER THO???' so rook. or elgar'nan.

Something I think about way too often as I'm working on some fanfic stuff is how little we know about the religious figures in The Dragon Prince.

Katolis has Lady Justice, something of a religious symbol given the Priestess we see but we hardly see many of them aside from The High Cleric, Opeli.

Duren meanwhile has The Goddess of Harvest, and it seems they have a theocracy given they belive the Royal Line is chosen by their Goddess but we never hear or see mention of her in the show.

The other kingdoms have no references to gods or religious figures as far as I can remember but I feel it is safe to assume that they do have them so the question is what figures would they worship?

[longing-for-rain]

its so funny when katongers claim that aang has the highest emotional maturity among the group (while putting zuko down and calling him a loser with nule emotional regulation ofc). The times ive seen them say "if it werent for aangs wisdom zukos ass would be dead actually!!" is... really smth else

Actually I love this argument because it’s so easy to turn back on Aang if this is really the logic you want to go with.

If it wasn’t for Zuko, Aang would have been captured by Zhao in Book 1 and Katara and Sokka would have died from sickness while he was taken back to the Fire Nation.

If it wasn’t for Zuko, Aang wouldn’t have learned firebending in time.

In fact, if it wasn’t for Zuko, Aang wouldn’t have even known about Ozai’s plan to burn down an entire continent on the day of the comet, and he would have been completely unprepared, leaving him to sit and watch uselessly as Ozai carried out a second genocide.

You can make this argument with any character. No character truly stands on their own; all of their actions depend on and influence the actions of other characters.

So your move, Aang stans, because this isn’t a game you’re going to win.

Act like the person you are, not the way they make you act.... Noble people shouldn’t have even an atom of baseness. Nobility scorns villainy. You should be able to boast that if gallantry, generosity, and faith were lost in the world, they could be found again in your own breast.
