What if I just. Made a self-insert OC to be friends with Ey'ani.
I'll call her Leo for now! She is a newly-graduated baby veterinarian doing her residency with a conservation team on Pandora. She wants to be able to help the alien wildlife, and reverse some of the damage that the RDA did!
“My husband was Toruk Makto” girl was way too humble knowing damn well a whole Thanator bowed down to her not even needing to be tamed. That’s more badass in my eyes.
I’d love to see Jake back as Toruk Makto at some point though. And for another Thanator to choose Neytiri for a battle.
If you loved Avatar and wish you could help indigenous people survive and fight back against colonization, but all you have to offer is your money, here's a good all-round charity:
No, but it would really be so fucking funny if Neytiri just. forgot Quaritch’s name in the decade + since she ganked him, or just never learned it at all because why would she bother to learn that name of that one old Sky Demon with the weird accent that she shot?
And then when he gets back and she has to learn his name as a necessity, she either simply refuses to use it or deliberately mispronounces it, because it’s a stupid name anyway and she’s not going to waste time getting it right.
