#justice for Suki

FLAMING FIRE FLAKES CHALLENGE.

I rewatched the show, it's still so so good ♡

The absolute disrespect for Suki is my villain origin story.

Cartoon Romances + Aww he made her blush

[the-badger-mole]

What are your unpopular opinions? Which characters or plot lines do you think deserved better?

For me, I wanted more development for Suki and Toph and their relationships. (I preferred Aang with Toph)

Personally, I think Toph could do better.

As for my thought on which characters deserved better, I think Jet and Hama deserved way more empathy from the narrative than they got. Jet reminds me of Nat Turner. I don't totally agree with everything they did, per se (I have an annoyingly soft spot when it comes to kids), but I understand completely and I do not judge. That's another reason why I hated Aang's lil' speech in TSR. "YUUU s0UnD lYk3 J33EEttT!!!!" Well, Jet had a point, Aang, so shut up. He deserved a better resolution to his story.

Hama also deserved better. I don't blame Katara and the others for allowing her to be arrested again. What else could they do? They couldn't allow her to murder people who likely had nothing to do with her suffering. But I think Hama also deserved more empathy from the narrative. What she did was...morally questionable- after all, there were a lot of Fire Nation citizens struggling under the weight of the war, too- but it came from a place of so much pain and brokenness, I can't imagine many people wouldn't have turned out at least as vengeful as Hama. I wish Katara and the others had been able to send her home. I wish there was at least a line in the epilogue about POWs in the Fire Nation being sent home. I wish Katara had gotten a chance to come to terms with what she learned from Hama and understood that it wasn't inherently evil knowledge.

I'm going to be a bit controversial here. While I do love stories where Toph and Suki get more plot devoted to them, within the context of the show, I think they got plenty. They had enough development and complexity that we care about what happened to them (which is personally, more than I can say for Aang). They weren't super core characters, though, especially Suki, so it makes sense that they didn't get more stories centering them. Although, I would gladly sacrifice that stupid, hacky Footloose pastiche episode that added nothing to the story for a Toph and Zuko field trip episode. I think Toph and Suki would've benefited from a sequel series that followed the Gaang post war. There would've been more space for stories about Toph's complicated relationship with her parents and Suki's backstory after the war.

au where sokka religiously plays fortnite on a daily basis until a spirit sends him a vision of the year 2024 where everyone else in the gaang has a skin in fortnite except him (and suki) and he breaks down and never plays it again

[Image ID: A two-panel comic, traditionally drawn in pen and watercolor, of Suki and Ty Lee from Avatar: The Last Airbender as young adults in a modern office setting. In the first panel, Suki and Ty Lee are standing at a desk, on which is a vase of flowers. Suki takes a card off of the vase and says, “Every Monday when I show up to work, a bouquet of flowers is waiting on my desk with a note from a ‘secret admirer.’ It’s been going on for three years.” Ty Lee says “Wooooooooooow! That’s a lot of secret admirers! But what does Sokka think???” In the second panel, Suki smiles widely at the card and says “He thinks I still don’t recognize his handwriting.” /.End ID]

lovebug x / moots only! send this + a character and i’ll give you headcannons on what your life would be like.

i need au!rafe cameron or i might just spontaneously combust 🤭

join the party!

god i was so tempted to go for soft!rafe but i felt like drummer!rafe fit you a bit better bc you give rockstar gf vibes. hope you like it and that i did it justice, ilysm xx

• sure rafe was good but he was new to the drummer scene…and to your side of the island

• you didn’t really have to say much, your reputation spoke for itself, and both of you were well aware so that’s why you turned rafe down…multiple times. he needed an ego check and you could wait for a new drummer

• you did say yes, not explicitly, but you were talking to someone and mentioned the band members and decided it was about time to add him in and well.. word travelled fast in kildare county

• you didn’t hate each other, not really, the chemistry on stage proved that much. and that’s what people came to see.. besides to listen to your music ofc

• somewhere along the line, the strict lines you’d both drawn had blurred together and it seemed more like flirting but rafe really wasn’t complaining, he loved the back and forth you both had, anything to have your attention for that little bit longer

• and so, barry pointed it out first, then came the pogues and well rafe was always hinting at wanting something more so that wasn’t a huge change except you weren’t as oblivious as they thought and well you’d decided to let him wait for a little longer

• you made a move, out of the blue when no one was really expecting anything on a random day, and well you were both together then

• not much had changed in your dynamic except you could make slightly more suggestive jokes in public and they meant more and you were both a little touchier in private but you still had the same back and forth that you both loved

• rafe was well, he’d been obsessed (in a healthy way) with you from the moment he saw you and well you put him in his place so really he was thrilled and a little surprised you made a move but he really did love and cherish and worship you

Suki deserved a field trip with Zuko and I am ready to die on this hill.

Cartoon Romances - The Deepest and Purest Kisses

[bloodxhound]

Honestly, leaving the LAPD is crushing to Ray. It’s not an easy decision at all. Working as a police detective has been his dream since he was a child, fueled by a lot of romanticism and the need to claim an identity for himself outside of what his father tried to force on him. He sacrificed much to become a detective: friendships, relationships, his freetime, his health, other career opportunities... all to secure himself a place away from his father’s influence, one that opposed him by design. Or so he thought. To then realize little by little how fraudulent all his idealism was, how the place he has chosen for himself is just as corrupted as the criminals he’s been pursuing really messes with him on top of everything else that's going on in his life.

God, the soaps have really blessed us with all the LGBT content this week. I've literally had the sad/emotional tears for Arthur in Emmerdale and then the incredibly happy tears for Colin and Barry in EastEnders. All that and it's barely even Wednesday!
