i still can't believe that my brain's capable of comprehending and building so many complicated concepts and yet my latest idea of ATLA fanfic plot is a fucking EPIC DRAGON FIGHT.
i watched Avatar for the first time when I was like. Eight. Somehow certain things in the show continue to cause the exact same enthusiasm as if my age is Still Eight.
Here I am. It doesn't matter if I can identify the age and general wellbeing of a bird by a single flight feather. It doesn't matter what can I say about habitus of an animal on a clinical examination.
It doesn't matter, because yes but WHAT IF Azula purposely curses herself to be DRAGON AT DAYLIGHT but the curse affects her brother too?! What then?!
I can already see Sokka going "Well, no biggie, if you're human only while the sun is sat, why don't you relocate to the Poles? We have polar nights like, for half of the year! And! When the night is over on one pole, you can just fly to another, so you would See No Sun Ever! ...Alright, I'll admit, in my head the idea sounded a lot better."

Tenjiku Tokubei riding a giant toad.
Amazing Vintage Illustrations Of Japanese Anthropomorphic Frogs and Toads
The Japanese term “kimo-kawaii” means “cute and ugly,” often describing anthropomorphic frogs and toads in art.
Tenjiku Tokubei (1612-1692) inspired kabuki and literature, portraying him as a spell-caster transforming stones into giant toads. This influenced Kanwatei Onitake, creating Jiraiya, a ninja conjuring phantom frogs. Jiraiya starred in the folk tale Katakiuchi Kidan Jiraiya Monogatari, adapted into kabuki and various media. Matsumoto Hoji, a 19th-century artist, created notable frog woodblocks.
