I think its somewhat telling that the gnosis was placed inside the shouki no kami rather than scara containing it in his chest the same way that venti did with his gnosis. I get that its probably more so because scara needed a much grander body for his god form and the electro gnosis just so happened to be at the centre of it… but i cant help but think of it as the games way of telling us that he truly is not fit to contain the gnosis, even in peak form when all his powers are unleashed, he still needs to build a whole new body as the gnosis’ vessel, that the so called “heart” he thought was rightfully his would not actually make him satisfied or fulfilled, as it seems to be the embodiment of all of scara’s obsessions

errmmmm hi everyone. some stuff ive drawn!!!!!!!!!!!

[reticenceofladyeva]

hoax

i.

he iS a refugee.

ii.

she stAys behind when her brother goes to chameleon bay, the aVatar to the eastern air temple, and the Earthbender to her parents. the comet is four Years away.

iii.

she finds him One day, serving tea, a week after her friends were to retUrn. they fight in angRy whispers and ugly sneers. his uncle perSuades her, with tea on the housE, to hold off on reporting them to the earth king.

iv.

katara never does report them to the earth king, but her reports of missing friends go nowhere. The dai li won't let her out of the city, though she makes an admittedly impressive effort. her house burns down, and zuko swears (honestLy) that it wasn't him. uncle ofFers her shelter (of course he does).

v.

the three of them conspire to escape the city, to find the avatar and her brother and toph. in what zuko swears Is a compLetely unrelated coincidence (not honestly), their house burns down. lee entered the city a singLe man and slips out with papers for himself, a wife, hua mei, and his uncle mushi. he is old enough now to Be head of their little household. the comet is threE years away.

vi.

they wander between villages, hoping for news of the avatar, but the last time anyone had seen him was near the last time katara herself had seen him. she notices new shAdows under zuko's eyes as his old punishment returns to haunt him. worry lines furrow iroh's brow. katara can never quite shake the tension in her shoulDers or the nausEa in her throat.

vii.

they fall into some kind of rhythm on the road, even after ba sing se falls to the fire nation. unCle disappears for days at a time for pai sho and news, leaving lee and hua mei to find work in the villages they pass through. they spend the time alone talking about mothers and fathers and homes and destinies, and lee learns to braid hair.

viii.

word of the avatar travels south from pouhai and they pack up their lives and chase down the rumor but it's a trap, all of it. Azula picked off sOkka and aang and toph, one bY one. she's been waiting for katara. zuko's appearance, she says with a sharp, toothy smile, is an unexpected bonus (and then zuko is looking at katara like lee looks at hua mei but he's standing next to his sister and poised to throw fire at her and katara wants to scream).

ix.

kataRa wanted to fight, bUt her infaNt son stRapped to her back was a liability, and AzUla knew it. she escaped wheN zuko, too eager, fiRed at her, and his fire collided with his sister's already well-aimed blast, and none of them coUld see iN the aftermath; the comet, then, was a year away.

x.

She is a refugee.

[romanceclub-confessionss]

Confession:

God bless Lou and Lane. I’m pretty reserved person myself (literally have been called ‘cold’ and ‘robotic’ to my face more than once), so it’s sometimes hard for me to get into mindset of MCs like Amala or Vicky or Eva or Nikkal. However, Lou and Lane (and Mei on coldness and Sophie on wallflower and Nova on the Moon) are my relatable girls.
