I find it hilarious that it’s never addressed how/why Bumi was able to become the King of Omashu, but I have some working theories on it:

Bumi was the born crown prince of Omashu and just never told Aang either to fuck with him or because he wanted to make normal friends away from royalty.

Even better if Bumi actually did tell Aang but Aang forgot/wasn’t listening.

The previous King of Omashu saw Bumi and was like “yes. I want that guy to be the heir to the crown”.

The king of Omashu isn’t a born royal like the Earth King or Fire Lord, but is actually elected by the people, and Bumi is just super popular or runs uncontested (he kills his opponents).

The King of Omashu is based on who the strongest earth bender of Omashu is (I imagine a competition every year or so where all the earth benders of the city compete for the crown and Bumi just obliterates them).

Bumi overthrew the previous king for whatever reason (he was bored).

And my personal favorite:

There actually is no official King of Omashu. The Earth King is the only royal leader in the Earth Kingdom. Bumi just declared himself king and everyone was too scared/impressed that they just let him be king.

Simplificación de diseños...

Fue una practica divertida- nun

Todos se ven tan lindos. quq

Creo que a Liam, Charlotte y a Elizabeth se les nota muy distintos...

Elizabeth se ve bien linda...quq Y Rosalie, esta bien, pero... la prefiero dibujar en mi estilo normal.

Perdonen las manos de Khalil, se nota que no quise cometer el mismo error escondiendo las manos con Liam. Pero en cuanto al diseño, me encanta el diseño de Khalil, se ve elegante y muy guapa. quq Y Liam se ve todo bonito y pequeño. qvq

Y pues Everett... no cambio mucho... ES QUE NO ENCUENTRO FORMA DE SIMPLIFICARLO- SI CON SU DISEÑO NORMAL ENCUENTRO DIFICULTAD, SIMPLIFICARLO PEOR-

Pero Charlotte, mi reina, mi vida, toda bonita- quq 💖

Ponerle un peinado parecido al del padre me dio sentimientos. qwq

Wey, porque no puse su cabello como el de su papi desde un inicio? :''U Se ve bien linda. yuy Me gusto mucho los resultado- quq

One thing that should've been explored about the Earth King Kuei (if I've misspelled his name, I would appreciate a correction, thanks) is how he could evolve from a pushover, incompetent ruler that was left in the shadows by his own advisor to a better and more qualified king without being brash or a bully. In The Promise comics, he wanted to be seen as a firmer ruler but he went too far, and then with the pressure of a second war, he chickened out. It would have been more interesting if Aang taught him how to be assertive and more confident without resorting to fear or aggression, and it would be a callback from Bitter Work where Aang learned to be direct and immovable like an earthbender but without taking away his kindness. The perfect chance for the king and Aang to bond!

I support this theory. Anything to survive the despicable witch that Zaheer disposed of for us.

So while rewatching Avatar: The Last Airbender recently, I noticed a trend

A number of spirits we see have an animal form, specifically animals we recognize as "normal" for us. For example:

- Wan Shi Tong is an owl and his knowledge seekers are foxes

- Tui and La are koi fish

- Hei Bai is a panda

-The guardian of the mother of faces is a wolf (The Search)

Heck there's even the talking Baboon spirit and the monkey missing its face that we see in the Spirit World at the end of Season 1.

Basically every time we've seen a "normal" animal, they've been a spirit.

My point? I argue that Bosco is a spirit bear that's chilling and living the good life in the mortal world just because he can.

Okay, I didn’t expect King Kuei to be such a hottie! 😳

“Even though I loved you.” “I treat you like the traitor you are”

- Lyric from あいしていたのに by Maretu

My submission for the prompt “Dance with Me” @avatar-wtf-weekend & partnered with this fic! In this particular AU, Kuei is far from forgiving and more controlling, possessive, and deadly towards his most trusted advisor <3.

the revelation that claudia’s rebirth was such a twisted and horrible moment, with louis dragging her like she was a thing, a stranger who neither of them knew but he kept saying over and over “our daughter, our beautiful little daughter” to lestat, really solidified the way she was never the main character of her own story. she was always an accessory to some or the other of louis’ whims: his guilt, his loneliness, his conflict of being a killer, his rocky relationship with lestat. there was love there, love from both her fathers, but it was never enough. lestat saw her too much as a wretched mirror held up to his own self, and louis was always too steeped in his own feelings to care enough about hers. claudia’s story truly was the greatest tragedy in this tale, treated horribly by every man around her, even her fathers, relentlessly exploited and brutally ignored, always second and never first. the only one who loved her the way she deserved to be loved was madeleine, and the moment she truly had her, her happiness was torn from her. and just before she died, she got to see someone actually choose her in her entirety, not for what she can be but for who she is, and it still wasn’t enough. she still burned alive in the sunlight. the love was there, but it wasn’t enough to save her.

Dc x Dp Prompt #6

“I’m a twin”, Damian said one night. He could feel the narrowed eyes of his family drilling holes on his back in disbelief. Not that he could blame them. Damian had never so much as implied being raised with a companion, much less a sibling.

“I had a brother”. Damian paused to recollect himself. He had not said his brother’s name out loud in over 8 years.

“His name was… Danyal”. Damian hated the way his voice wavered, but he could not help it. Danyal was everything to him, his other half. Their heart beat as one and when one heart stopped beating, the other one died with it. At least until his family put his heart on metaphorical life support without ever realizing.

“Where is he now?” His father asked, voice filled with knowing grief and a hint of betrayal. It had in fact been 6 years since Damian first showed up on his doorstep.

“Up there”. All eyes shifted towards the specific star he was pointing to. “Right before he died, he promised me he’d guide me from the stars. Unfortunately, the stars are not visible in Gotham, so my brother is unable to be of much help unless I leave the city.”

“Your brother is Polaris, the North Star?” Tim questioned warily, most likely in attempts to not offend him. Damian was aware of how stupid it sounded, but Danyal had promised, and his brother never broke his promises.

“Yes. Danyal is with the stars now, just as he always wanted”

The Ambassador

So! It was finally happening. After Years of Pleading with the Guardians and other Ruling Bodies of the Galactic Community, the Justice League had finally gotten then to agree to create an Alliance with Earth.

With an Alliance, Earth would gain the Protection of Multiple Empires and The Guardians, which would mean an end to the Constant Alien Invasions they faced. There was also the legal opening of Trade Routes between Planets to exchange Technology and Resources on the Galactic Scale.

Of course Earth would return the Favor, legally being able to defend it's Allies with its unusually large population if Superheroes and quickly advancing Tech, while also trading Tech and Resources between Planets.

Of course the battle was not entirely won yet.

They still needed to begin Negotiations to see if both sides would even agree to the Alliance in the First Place, as well as decide on the specifics of the Treaty. The United Nation's would decide on Ambassadors to represent the different countries, while the different Alien Governments would send an Ambassador Each.

When the Ambassadors arrived, they asked to be introduced to the Representatives of the Planet. Except, they claimed that there was a missing Member.

They claimed that there was one more Major Kingdom on the Planet, the most Powerful One, which they felt must be at the Negotiations.

When asked who this missing Ambassador was, they simply replied, "King Phantom of the Infinite Realms, he and a Shard of his Kingdom reside on this Planet, do they not?"

Now they are working around the clock to find this missing Kingdom, because the Alien Ambassadors refused to negotiate without the most powerful Kingdom at the Table, and they woud not wait forever.

Just who was this "King Phantom", and why had he not revealed himself yet?

...

Sam and Tucker sat on the Couch in their apartment, staring at the TV as the Chosen Representatives for America finished their Speech. Apparently the Peace Talks had been put on Hold for a few more days as they did some last minute preparations. Something about making their Guests more comfortable before they began discussing politics.

"Hey Danny, they're delaying the Negotiations for a few more days." Sam called over to the Kitchen.

"Aw, what?!" Shouted Danny from the Kitchen, sounding extremely disappointed, "I just finished making all the Popcorn!"

"I know Honey, its too bad." Tucker comforted his Partner, "Let's marathon Star Trek instead, how about that?"

Danny slumped out of kitchen and into the Couch between them, steaming bowl of Popcorn in his Lap, "I guess. We can make good use of all this popcorn at least."

Sam patted him on the arm, "Hey it's okay, the Talks will just take a few more days."

Danny shrugged, "Yeah, you're right. Man, what I wouldn't give to be in that Room."
