Would it be too broad a question to prompt for thoughts on a Yue & Azula dynamic? Idk if it’s rly that fun to ruminate on hypotheticals when Yue is the moon post s1, but I mean, we have contemplated the potential dynamics of Yue with other characters beyond s1 so I don’t see why not. Tbh I just thought it was interesting bc Yue has completely internalized her role within patriarchy as a symbol of the motherland etc etc. & Azula I think everyone esp w/in fandom tends to misconstrue as like. Autonomous & selfish & ontologically evil when her whole Deal is subservience to a “divine” patriarch & being molded into a perfect weapon. Or am I only thinking they would have an interesting dynamic bc as you’ve rightly said before, sokka & Azula as foils are already rly compelling & Yue is the female sokka?

lmfao yeah you basically said it all. yue and azula are both mirrors to sokka and also mirrors to each other. they each have “duties to their father and to their people” that they embody above all else, sublimating their personhood to perform obedience to their respective patriarchs. yue performs this role through denying her own agency and sacrificing herself, azula performs this role through dehumanizing herself and molding herself into a weapon, and sokka does all of the above. but in a more literal sense, yue and azula are both princesses (obviously sokka is also the son of the chief, but it’s a different situation because he’s also not a Girl) and so this is already a huge commonality between them, considering they’re the only two real princesses in the entire show (although you could argue that toph and mai functionally had similar upbringings). I think a lot of people envision azula and yue working together in an AU wherein the war never happened and so there was international cooperation that allowed for them to meet. that, or an AU wherein yue survives the siege and eventually meets azula. neither of these hypotheticals are particularly interesting to me, but I could see them getting along, because yue likes nerdy dorks who make bad jokes and kill people, and azula likes beautiful girls with shiny hair who are nice to her (to be honest I don’t even think they have to be beautiful, I think they just have to be nice to her, and being absolutely gorgeous is just a bonus). but it’s also kind of a pointless ship to me because there’s no real scenario wherein they’d interact, and sokka already functions as a proxy between both of them in the first place. and is he not dykey enough to satisfy your desires??? for shame.

Hiiii for tbe prompt thing either 26 or 31!

26. a kiss as an apology.

Despite his best efforts to be quiet, Sokka is only in their bed for a few moments before his boyfriend rolls around to face him.

"You're home late," Zuko mumbles sleepily.

Sokka smiles fondly at the way Zuko tries to open his eyes to look at him, but his exhaustion wins and he just reaches his hand out. Sokka grabs it, kissing his knuckles then leaning forward to kiss his forehead. He starts to pull back before noticing the head tilt that Sokka knows too well, so he grants Zuko's silent request for a kiss on the lips before settling back on the pillows.

"I'm sorry," Sokka says. "Katara insisted that we stayed until the karaoke bar was closed. Were you waiting up for me?"

Zuko mumbles an incoherent answer, not that Sokka expected anything else. He starts shuffling under the covers and at first Sokka thinks he's pushing the blankets off him like he does oftentimes when he wakes up feeling too hot, but a pillow emerges and is pushed over the side of the bed and Sokka realizes Zuko had wrapped his arms around it as a replacement in Sokka's absence.

With the real thing in front of him, Zuko practically shoves Sokka over to his other side then wraps his arms tightly around Sokka's waist, pulling Sokka's back against his chest and falling back asleep in seconds. Sokka stifles his laughter, resting his hand on Zuko's arm and closing his eyes as he settles comfortably in the arms of the man he loves.

10 characters | 10 fandoms | 10 tags

This is cool, thanks for the tag @transuncletaylor! I think I just talk about my faves right? I know I’m forgetting some but here goes

Sokka (ATLA) : he’s so funny and interesting and his character is So Deep actually! I love a guy with Secret Issues. Must be relatable I guess.

Mako (LOK) : You’re going to start seeing I have a type. Hot, bad boy vibes, seems reckless but has a huge sense of justice actually. Also I LOVE a mysterious and tragic backstory.

Jim Kirk (Star Trek) : I mean the exact same reasons as above pretty much.

Jack Kelly (Newsies) : same hehe. I just love these guys of questionable sexuality who are like a leader of a found family and would do ANYTHING to protect them.

Marius Pontmercy (Les Miserables) : he’s annoying af and doesn’t get the point of anything going on around him but he knows exactly what he stands for. So relatable. His hyperfixation with Napoleon for entirely stupid reasons? Iconic. What a king. Living through a tragedy too? I’m attracted to that angst like flies on shit.

Tommy Shelby (Peaky Blinders) : He’s just badass. The best antihero. He says fuck capitalism and then falls victim to it lol. Also he is a GENIUS and loves to fuck people up to protect his family. Also his trauma is delicious to me ofc.

Geralt of Rivia (The Witcher) : Mysterious hero with pain and a family. So yeah.

Roronoa Zoro (One Piece) : I mean pretty much the same as the majority of this list. Tough guy who would die for his captain omfg

Han Solo (Star Wars) : the og baddie, need I say more

Anya Forger (Spy x Family) : listen it creeps ME out too that a little girl is on the list of me, a grown ass man, but she’s SO funny and her cuteness reminds me of like every student I ever had, I can’t help it

ok idk if y’all figured out but I just tag people by typing letters and clicking the first people who show up lol. Anyway if I dont tag you and you wanna do this, go for it. If I tag you and you don’t want to do this, fine.

[zukkacore]

hii i dont know you but when dallas liu posted that zukka shirts picture to instagram i was obviously gonna check if the artist was in the comments and before i ever found your instagram i found your??? aunt and cousin??? promoting your redbubble which was so funny to me 😭 congrats on having the most supportive family who will do your zukka merch promo for you<3

Yeah! A bunch of my family knows abt it lol. They were honestly doing more for me than I was just bc I’ve always been a little too self conscious to shill. I do feel kinda bad and wish a little bit they would chill but it’s very sweet & well meaning. I got texts from several of my cousins being like we wanna buy the shirt to support you & I was like? The gay zukka shirt? Be my guest if u wear it as a sleep shirt or something. My dad was literally like “I’m gonna show my students this they’re gonna think it’s so cool” & bc I also work in education (kinda) I was like but what if you get a complaint from a parent or something. He basically said “oh idc I’m looking for an excuse to fight my principal anyway”

so yeah papa zukkacore is fully prepared to die on the zukka hill which is an extremely strange thing to know. He’s literally that kind of person that thinks cartoons are inherently dumb and childish & all anime is yugioh. I’m not even sure he knows who Zuko and Sokka are <3
