Blind Azula and one-armed Zuko.

Zuko: Sorry Aang, but our guests have arrived.

Zuko: In a moment my people will serve dinner.

Azula, (Rubbing her hands): Thank you, butler.

Zuko: Actually, I'm the Fire Lord.

Zuko, (Noticed his dark glasses): Hey, what modern glasses!

Zuko: Be careful, they won't steal it.

Azula: How nice, how fun, I'll applaud him with both hands! 👏👏

Zuko: Oh, how nice of you, why don't you look at my face when you applaud me?

Azula: Oh, how nice, why don't you shake my hand?

Zuko: Oh, I know what you mean. Hey, didn't I see it in a target shooting sport?

Azula: And you were a boxer.

Zuko, (exiting): Well, I'll go and enjoy the passage, because I can SEE IT.

Azula: Asshole.

Zutara shippers need to accept that nobody is obliged to like Zuko and especially that just not shipping him Katara means you think he's not valid.I'm literally in love with Zuko because i read the comics which take place in the adult years so i started selfshipping him with him and made a whole Atla self-insert to be together and he's a four way tie between Aang,Katara and Ty Lee for my favorite Atla character.D'you really think i actually hate him because i think i think it's okay if other poc consider him a colonizer even though i disagree?Or if they're uncomfortable with him being redeemed but not Jet and Hama due to the racist undertones?Or if Azula stans can't stand him as he was ruined by how much his asskissers bash her?It's a deeply unserious accusation and that's because it's NOT that serious!He's a fictional character!You have no right to attack people over him unless it's in a way that's actually offensive like victim blaming for what Ozai did or ableism over his scar and mental illnesses,which is real bold considering how often Aang being a genocide survivor is made out to be HIS fault by Z/Ks and the erasure of Zuko's scar and ptsd/bpd/etc symptoms to make him 'hotter' and more palpable by them too.I love Zuko more than Zutaras ever could,because i accept and appreciate him for who he is and am attracted to him for being who he is,not inspite of it,instead coddling him and making excuses and my Atla s/i would be a more satisfying love interest for him than Katara could ever be since their relathionship dosen't rely on character assasinating a woc and removing her agency for a man and calling it rebellion because he's an edgecase.Deal with it

After reading your snippets I usually have kinda weird but upmost entertaining dreams.

Today it was Sokka as a bookshop assistant, doing deliveries. Local Tea Guy was claiming his vision is not as good as it was, so he made his half blind nephew read to him. Half of Iroh's books are self help books, and it took Sokka like, two seconds to get the picture. It helped that during readings Azula kept making dry comments on everything and Iroh was doing miniature embroidery.

Sokka made reports of those readings and gave recommendations on which book fits best to Zuko's feral tone.

Thank you for your stories! I like them very much and you helped me a lot to don't shy away from including seemingly silly/just for fun details into my own art.

All the love <3

This is a whole one shot fic right here, thank you for gifting us with Screen Reader Zuko (Does Not Realize He's Being Tricked Into Being a Self-Help Encyclopedia) on this fine morning

Happy pride to my fave lesbians

could you do a blind azula with sokkla au

Hello, anon!!!

1. Azula is born blind. No one knows why but she is. Ursa tries to argue that Azula will be a strong child and capable of bending to her full capacity but Ozai doesn’t believe her. Azula is still a strong bender but Ozai thinks that her blindness will keep her from being a real firebender. Ursa, desperately trying to keep her baby alive, gives her away in the hopes that someone else can protect her. Azula is bounced around for a while until she ends up in the South Pole and found by Kya and Hakoda, who take the infant in and decide to raise her.

2. Azula never let her blindness stop her from playing, doing chores or fighting with Sokka. She and him would constantly run around the village, chasing each other with snowballs, and try to out do each other in different chores. Hakoda tries to go easy on the girl when it comes to fishing or carving, etc but Azula doesn’t like it and demands to be treated the same as Sokka and Katara. By the time she’s six, Hakoda gave up on trying to go easy on Azula and gives her the same tasks as the other kids. Kya, for her part, never treated the kids differently except to tell Azula that she wasn’t from the Water Tribe. Since she can’t see, Azula would have no way of knowing Kya isn’t her mother but Kya makes it clear to Azula very early on that she isn’t and her real mother is probably in the Earth Kingdom somewhere (this isn’t done in a malicious way more-so in a way so that Azula knows the truth). Azula also learns to see by “seeing” heat. She can basically see heat sources and therefore knows when people are around her.

3. When Kya is killed, Azula swears off firebending. Mother or not, Azula loved Kya and her death really hits her hard. No matter what Hakoda says, Azula refuses to bend. She keeps that promise for years afterwards even when they find Aang, Azula introduces herself as a nonbender. She even refuses to teach Aang any firebending for a while because she’s dedicated herself to not bending (Actually turns out to be a blessing because Ozai doesn’t identify her as Azula until after the North Pole siege). Speaking of, Azula sees Sokka in trouble during the siege and uses her bending to protect him. (Azula: Sokka?! Are you okay?! Sokka: I’m okay. I’m okay. You…you firebent. Azula: I guess I did. Sokka: To help me. Azula: Oh, no. Sokka: You like me! Azula: No! No, I don’t! Sokka: Azula likes me! Azula likes me! Azula: Hey! Is there any other soldier who wants to kill him for me?!!)

4. Ozai changes Zuko’s mission to instead capturing Azula and the Avatar and gives him Mai and Ty Lee as support. Azula is now using her bending so it’s a bit easier to track her (a blind firebender has got to attract some attention) but they can’t capture her. And, since Azula left the palace when she was a baby, she has no idea who Mai and Ty Lee are and she and Zuko don’t know they’re related. (Of course Ozai twists the story when he tells Zuko and says Azula was stolen from them by the Water Tribe which is why he needs to get her back). Throughout this, the Gaang really doesn’t know any of that and instead are focused on finding Aang an earthbending teacher: enter Toph. Toph and Azula would make every blind joke known to man and are constantly helping each other out with little tricks. (Sokka: Spirits, there’s two of them). Just a Toph & Azula friendship. (Toph: So, anything you want to tell me. Azula: About what? Toph: About you and Snoozles? Azula: What-are you-no. No, there’s nothing to say. Toph: Really? Because if I didn’t know any better I’d say you have a massive crush on him. Azula: I do not! Toph: And you’re heartbeat increasing when you hear him voice, constantly going to his side, sitting right next to him at dinner and holding onto him when you can’t see is all…Azula: Shut up)

5. In BSS, Azula joins Zuko’s side (let me explain) and returns to the Fire Nation with him. She never mastered lightning but the Dai Li does being down a cave on Aang and Katara, believing them dead. The siblings, Mai and Ty Lee return to the Fire Nation and declare the Avatar and his friend dead. Unknown to them, but known to Azula, Toph was right behind them and kept them from being crushed. The Gaang now is able to travel with everyone thinking they’re dead and having Azula as a secret double agent (something Sokka isn’t too fond of but it was his and Azula’s idea). They’re reunited during the DOBS, a time when Zuko tries to tell Azula what Ozai told him and Hakoda, who is there, tells Zuko that some fishermen found Azula and dropped her off in the South Pole—they didn’t steal her—and he pokes a few holes in Ozai’s lie, but Zuko doesn’t want to doubt his father (since he spent most of his time under Ozai’s thumb and all). The invasion force is still captured, while the Gaang escape to the Western Air Temple, with Hakoda eventually being sent to the Boiling Rock. However, this time, he comes across a woman with a very familiar face who introduces herself as Ursa.

Blind Azula.

Mai allowed Azula to touch her face after begging and pleading. While Ty Lee had to beg for Azula to do it when she found out.

what bothers me more than sokka's sexism being changed in the atla live action is zuko's scar. or, actually, the little birthmark on his face that some basic makeup covers it up.

[supremechancellorrex]

You know, one thing I kinda like about the Avatar: Legend of Aang Live-Action series is they chose not to use coloured contacts for the characters. I know some people are like "Why aren't Katara's eyes really bright blue? Why aren't Zuko's gold?" but it kinda makes it feel more grounded that they didn't use coloured contacts, makes it feel more grounded and an authentic Asian world than a stylised anime. Plus, I never understood how no one noticed that Zuko, Iroh and Azula's eyes were gold/amber while they were undercover in Ba Sing Se except Katara. Same with Katara and Sokka having blue eyes while undercover in the Fire Nation, which seemed uncommon enough there and Water Tribe it would be noticed negatively. Omg, they've actually fixed a weird cartoon plot issue already and it's just the teaser!

Also, it's great to see the characters actually look their age. One of the tragedies of Avatar was that kids were having to deal with a war in the first place. It really lends to that theme, because in the cartoon it could difficult to tell the age of a character at times, like Azula.

I think she knows what I am 🏳️‍🌈
