So the Jet/Zuko fight scene is great for many reasons but can you imagine, sitting in dunkins donuts, sipping your dunkaccino, and this crazed teenager comes in with these enormous. hooks? and accuses the ALSO teenaged cashier of being a russian sleeper agent and there’s a cop who tries to diffuse the situation but instead of letting things de-escalate the cashier leaps over the counter, steals the cop’s gun, and says “i’ll give you a show” i mean-

hey… do you guys think… that the blue spirit became kinda like a criptid/myth in the ATLA verse? like Zuko never told the public about it obviously. and we know from the ember Island players episode that the blue spirit was “The scourge of the fire nation” so do like… do you think people are out there… looking for the blue spirit like bigfoot… and Zuko is sitting in his palace like “I wonder what I did with that old mask”

I think it’s so funny during the exchange on the balloon when sokka is like, “yeah being good at war seems to run in the family,” and zuko gets all defensive and goes, “hold on, not everyone is like that!” and at first sokka thinks he’s talking about himself, but then zuko reveals that he’s talking about his uncle. and sokka just has to sit there mentally calculating whether it would be a good idea to bring up the fact that historically, his uncle is great at war. if i had to attempt to transcribe his inner monologue in that moment it would just be “don’t bring up the dragon of the west don’t bring up the dragon of the west this guy is willingly sacrificing his life for your self-indulgent suicide mission you need him on your side don’t bring up the dragon of the west…” at which point he then looks back up at zuko and says thru gritted teeth, “haha yeah. no, cuz like, totally. for sure.”

Really do not get the arguments about who the strongest avatar is. Like, the answer is clearly Szeto. Dude canonically worked as court bureaucrat, meaning he not only mastered the four elements but on top of that also administrative law. Administrative law. This is a man to fear.

headcanon that uncle iroh was very scary so the sailors on zuko’s ship never swore around him and zuko knows no swearwords. aang, however, knows all of them and just chooses not to use them

that time zuko risked getting arrested by firebending in the middle of ba sing se just so he could light up a fountain to make some random girl happy but then when she tried to kiss him he held up a coupon in front of his face. like, he didn’t even want to kiss her, he just did that because he’s a compulsive people pleaser

[pidgebeifong]

never getting over the fact that zuko would dress up as his favorite character from his favorite opera to go and rob ppl with swords. cannot imagine a gayer activity

[pidgebeifong]

my controversial opinion is I don’t think Zuko was confused by “my first girlfriend turned into the moon”

[pidgebeifong]

whenever ppl use the tag #atla spoilers i cannot help but laugh. have myself a little chuckle, if u will. queens............ she ended in 2008....... we’ve had 3 US presidents since then......... what is being spoiled that has not already been spoiled by like. the natural passage of time ..

zuko: never forget when my sister posted her workout video with me in the back like that

only atla is bold enough to have a beach episode but exclusively for its villains

Katara and Suki have matching mugs saying “tears of sexists” and no you cannot change my mind 

[pidgebeifong]

Zuko having a connection to the spirit world but instead of it being something deep and profound, it’s just because he spent three years pre-finding the avatar running towards the first weird magical shit he saw.

so I came to a realization while reading some stuff about ozai. bitchlord had the shortest reign of any firelord ever, but that isn’t the funniest thing yet. it was listed that the most notable victories of his reign was the surrender of omashu and the fall of ba sing se.

both of those were led by azula, not ozai. in short, his fourteen year old mentally unstable daughter did more in ozai’s seven year term than ozai ever did.

do what you want with this information. loserlord, indeed. 

edit: rewatched atla. i’m sorry. forgot azula didn’t technically conquer omashu, so please stop fighting over it in the notes. but still, ba sing se. that was more than ozai or iroh ever did. and she did it in what, a few days? queen shit
