that whole "zuko is a bad firebender" jabbering is honestly so funny to me even if it's turned into "zuko was a bad firebender before he actually found himself yadda yadda" bc like..that's not true?

i mean yeah zuko definitely became a much better firebender after he figured out who he really is and what his actual destiny is. he literally learned about firebending from the original firebenders lol. (which also refutes that "azula would've won the final agni kai if she hadn't turned crazy" argument imo but we move)

but have these people actually seen zuko firebend in B1?? like from his training sessions to him literally winning the agni kai against Zhao, a grown ass man with several years of firebending experience as a literal war admiral and who learned to firebend from a firebend master. zuko had also already mastered martial arts and sword combat at like..16 (which is crazy impressive if u actually think abt it lol). the former which he uses a lot in his firebending as well.

idk i'm just ranting a little rn cause this is a discourse that has always bothered me a lil lol. and that argument seems to stem from the fact that his sister azula is a firebending prodigy but he is not and from the fact that he's a way better firebender at the end of the series (which...duh?) which means he must have been a bad firebender at the beginning of it?

ig what i'm trying to say is even if he hadn't mastered firebending in the earlier seasons yet and even if his firebending used to come from the wrong emotions back then, he was always a good firebender (who then became even better). he always had such a strong raw firebending power to him.

like u don't have to be a prodigy or master at something to be considered "good" so i wonder where that "he used to be such a bad firebender haha" came from lol. but maybe that's just me idk.

RANT OVER! (for now at least. stay tuned!)

I’m pretty sure I ended up figuring out that, timeline-wise, AFO still had eyes at that point, but this is still funny

i like to think sometimes about masato using other kinds of mobility aids. we know he's an ambulatory wheelchair user (he can stand up and walk for very short distances), and given how he dealt with a lot of internalized ableism, it's fair to assume that if he had been able to use something else than a wheelchair, he would have. simply for the sake of "looking less disabled". because this man needs therapy.

if his condition is a degenerative one, which seems to be the case since it is said that his health progressively got worse after 2001 and it is somewhat implied that it also worsened between 1993 and 2001, maybe there was a time when he could at least try to use crutches, but as we see him in the game he cannot anymore.

if he tried using crutches or a walker or anything else he probably figured out that they didn't work for him and caused him too much pain, but he probably spent days using them nonetheless before his recklessness became an actual problem for his health. because he's the kind of guy who will not go back on a decision before the consequences of said decision will blow up in his face in the worst way possible. so maybe one day he was out using crutches and just ran out of energy in the middle of the street and collapsed. called ichiban to pick him up. and following this incident decided to never use crutches ever again to avoid getting embarrassed like this.

by the time 2001 comes around he probably only uses his wheelchair when he goes out, since we know ichiban is expected to accompany him whenever he goes out, probably to push his wheelchair in his place (probably because masato gets exhausted if he does it by himself for an extended period of time, because poor stamina). maybe he uses a cane or crutches at his apartement though, given how a lot of apartements aren't arranged with wheelchair users in mind, and he wouldn't need to go very far or stand up for too long to get where he needs to go

anyway here's six doodles of masato with crutches (refs here)

I hate it when people demonize schizophrenia. We’re not monsters or murderers or anything like that. It’s a mental illness, not a character flaw.

Two hours. I got two hours of sleep. I’m so frustrated with myself.

Went to the ER. Everyone was very nice. They gave me an IV bag of fluids (I was dehydrated! Sad cactus!) and a little ativan (teeny dose), which was nice at the time! Just a little amount, but the (mostly) quiet room, fluids, and meds managed to relax me a lot. Could have fallen asleep if the bed was actually comfortable. Then they packed me up, gave me another little Ativan to take home for tonight, and said they’d contact my primary. Cool cool. Got some much needed food on the way home, then took the pill and got comfy. Again, smallest dosage they make, so no feeling too good. Managed to muscle past my anxiety to fall asleep, and… 2 hours. Woke up. Tried to go back to sleep. Too frustrated and anxious and I feel like crap. What should I do? Just eat a whole gummy and hope that knocks me out? For me, that feels like playing roulette. Could work, yeah. Could make me sleepy and pliable. Could also backfire and make me feel sick and extra anxious for another 5 or 6 hours. What do I do? Roll back up to the ER? “Hewwo, I woke up and I need more benzos 👉👈🥺” haha funny, but I’ve seriously been thinking about it 😑

God, I’m miserable. Been sitting outside on the porch for a bit. Not quite an hour. Needed to get out of the apartment, but tbh, nearly 4am outside isn’t doing much for me. I just feel alone. It wouldn’t help with sleeping, per se, but just someone, I dunno, hugging or holding me for a few minutes would honestly save me a little. What a mess. Oh yeah, and apparently my kidneys are going 👎👎👎 down. Bad meat. Not great test results. Not what I’m focusing on tonight. I’m a mess. Anyway, this was my update. Sorry for all the walls of text. Suppose this is mainly for me to look back on in the future, but can’t pretend it’s not at least a little validating to put this all out into the world and knowing that maybe one or two people read this and I didn’t suffer completely without recognition. Yeah…
