I was reading TLC the other day (I love Marissa Meyer) and this might piss a lot of people off but I actually hate Kaider. They'd barely even met each other in the first book and Cinder has at least a semi-idealized version of him no matter how much she claims she's "not like other girls" idolizing him. Their dynamic therefore seems superficial to me for the rest of the first book and even though it does become true love, I also think that Cinder's ending is just kind of sad. She wanted to travel the world and be independent and get away from the pressures of the prejudice against her but just ends up stuck in a palace until she abdicates the throne, and I'm expected to believe she'd be perfectly happy being Empress the rest of her life? I might be missing something here or it might just be personal preference but honestly I just dislike Kaider it makes zero sense to me

Just saw someone say that Coryo in the books was probs straight but movie!Coryo was bisexual and I'm like what are we talking about here he's the most bisexual psychopath ever in the book AND the movie

[yourhighness6]

why do you think it's so common for writers to insert themselves into their stories?

I don't know.

[yourhighness6]

Not my delusional ass ignoring canon deciding to believe that when Coryo was wondering in the book whether "intimacy would work" to convince Sejanus not to be a rebel he was actually talking romantically but when he started talking to him he panicked and was like "oh, uh, so, we're brOtHErS"

Who's Afraid of Little Old Me? Is so Katara in TSR coded I'm not even sorry. Like:

Somthing about the way Snow always despised chaos above all else and was killed not in a clean, controlled execution but in the very definition of chaos: a wild, violent rush of an unnamed crowd. Poetic justice.

But Daddy I Love Him / Her

[yourhighness6]

If I had a nickel for every recent movie based on a book where a boy from a prestigious background who lost everything after the death of his father was exiled from his city home, fell in love with a kind, defiant, somewhat feral girl and was welcomed into her close-knit nomadic community, only to eventually betray her and become a mass-murdering dictator, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?

I didn't mind the "getting married off for the highest bid" line, but, like. She dated a racist. She was part of that cycle. She can't date Matty Heely and simultaneously condemn racism. And yes, they broke up, but he broke up with her. She clearly had no problem when he was making racist comments, so she doesn't suddenly get to turn around and have a problem with it now so she can brag about being woke for attention.

somebody on twitter brought up the fact that Johane Matte, a storyboard artist that worked on ATLA and LOK made storyboard art of adult gaang and omg this is the adult aang that we deserved instead of that white man 😭😭 side note: sokka looks so much like hakoda, tlok animators fumbled the bag

[yourhighness6]

I'm not a kataang fan by any means but I glanced at some K/A fanart lately and holy shit it's so good. Like all the artists, writers, ect. in the ATLA fandom are so wonderful even if I don't like the pairing its all just *chefs kiss*

I love how Sejanus in the book is just like "I'm a little meow meow I have no friends I'm quiet in class I'm a nerd I'm sorry for existing" meanwhile Sejanus in the movie is like "yes bitch I'm from the districts wtf u plan to do about it u whore???"

Wait why is yue your favorite? She barely did anything

"Barely did anything" is a huge stretch. At sixteen years old, Yue sacrificed herself to protect the entire world from being imbalanced. At sixteen years old, that was the only choice she had ever made in her life, the only gesture that she was ever allowed to control, but out of love for her people she made an extremely difficult and brave decision for the good of her tribe. Personally I think she did a lot.

P.S. please leave this in the tags, I'm curious how wrong y'all are.

[yourhighness6]

I think at this point I've headcanoned the gaang sexualities/ gender identities so hard that I forget it isn't canon. Like what do you mean Sokka and Zuko aren't bisexual? What do you mean Katara isn't pan? What do you mean Toph isn't aroace and had kids? What do you mean Suki isn't bi with a preference towards girls and doesn't go by she/they pronouns? What do you mean Aang isn't celibate and doesn't go by they/them pronouns? It's real in my head and that's all that matters.
