Zuko: I know what you’re going to say: she’s my sister and I should be trying to get along with her.
Iroh: No. She’s crazy and she needs to go down.
~~~
Uncle Iroh (to Zuko): Lightning is a pure expression of firebending — without aggression. It is not fueled by rage or emotion the way other firebending is. Some call lightning the cold-blooded fire. It is precise and deadly, like Azula. To perform the technique requires peace of mind.
~~~
Uncle Iroh: Fire is the element of power. The people of the fire nation have desire and will and the energy and drive to achieve what they want. Earth is the element of substance. The people of the earth kingdom are diverse and strong. They are persistent and enduring. Air is the element of freedom. The air nomads detached themselves from worldly concerns and found peace and freedom. Also apparently they had pretty good senses of humor! Water is the element of change. The people of the water tribe are capable of adapting to many things. They have a deep sense of community and love that holds them together through anything.
Zuko: Why are you telling me these things?
Uncle Iroh: It is important to draw wisdom from many different places. If we take it from only one place, it becomes rigid and stale. Understanding others, the other elements and the other nations - will help you become whole.
~~~
Zuko (to the storm): You’ve always thrown everything you could at me. Well, I can take it! And now I can give it back!
~lightning flashes~
Zuko (to the storm): C’mon! STRIKE ME! YOU’VE NEVER HELD BACK BEFORE!
The Storm: ⛈️⛈️⛈️
Zuko: 😭😫
#the storm as a metaphor for Zuko’s inner turmoil#and that lightning didn’t hit him because he wasn’t ready#and that he needs his uncles guidance to fully understand his own feelings#my son was PUT THROUGH IT this episode#I had to quote all the Iroh/Zuko moments#Aang learns earthbending from Toph here#and Sokka gets stuck in the ground with a baby moose cub#but Zukos story is so good so I’m not apologizing#avatar the last airbender#avatar the last airbender quotes#atla: zuko#atla: iroh#Genni rewatches ATLA#s2 e9: bitter work#ughh baby boy keep going you’ll find who you’re meant to be soon#I love you *kisses Zuko on the forehead*

Saw this frame on a different reblog by @thatssroughbuddy but why does it look like Iroh is using his phone to take a photo of his nephew at a landmark

This is continuation of this thread with great ideas that inspired the art: Post
Zuko hasn't (yet??) blocked Azula, not even temporarily
Iroh's photo is blurry because OF COURSE
Zhao keeps editing his stuff
I debated placing "Ozai: Seen" but it turns out he probably wouldn't even be looking at this social media
Please help me name this lame Fire Nation social media for boomers
Zuko's "On a quest" status is pure copium
Next part

I want to clear up a mistake people make with Azula and Ursa.
Ursa didn’t play favorites.
Ursa didn’t think Azula was a monster.
Ursa simply, unequivocally, just didn’t enable Azula’s worst traits like Ozai did.
Ozai’s favorite child was Azula, but Ursa still loved her more.
Because enabling isn’t love.
What did Ozai’s enabling do? It made Azula into the type of person to never have any loyal friends. It made the type of person that Mai and Tai Lee would betray at the risk of their own lives.
Ursa pushed Azula to be with her friends. To be with Zuko. Ozai pushed Ursa away, and both kids suffered for it. Azula became a sadist, enjoying seeing her brother get burned—while Zuko was pushed away because he cared for his people.
Azula thought her mom hated her because her mom was the only one who cared enough to tell her no.

Iroh: I see. It’s the anniversary isn’t it?
Zuko: Three years ago today, I was banished. I lost it all. I want it back. I want the Avatar, my honor, my throne. I want my father not to think I’m worthless.

"Katara was the first one to reach out to Zuko"
Nope, it was Aang
and zuko has never forgotten his words :)
#avatar the last airbender#atla#aang#zuko#their relationship>>>>#their parallels>>>#aang and iroh ultimately makes zuko change sides#and aang is the only reason zuko is still alive

You know what’s astonishing about Katara? She grew up in a world without bending.
It’s not surprising that Sokka calls her bending ‘magic water’ in the first episode. It might as well have been magic to them at that point; they had never seen it in practice until they meet Aang.
So not only did Katara not have any teachers, she didn’t have any kind of guidance, no visual aids, no idea of how bending is supposed to look or work. The first time she ever sees actual waterbending movements is when she steals the waterbending scroll from the pirates. The first time she meets another waterbender is when she reaches the North Pole, where within weeks she outmasters pretty much everyone and goes on to teach the Avatar.
Everything she does is so incredibly impressive, and yet I can’t help but feel the most proud of her when she catches a fish on that little boat.
#iroh’s content and comments#atla#avatar: the last airbender#i was actually thinking about Sokka and how his opinion on bending changes throughout the show#but this turned into a Katara post anyway#I’ll leave my Sokka thoughts for another day

Seeing this picture made me think that if Uncle Iroh had a phone it would be filled with Zuko's silly pictures. Uncle would consider all of them cute and he would gladly show them to the gaang. Meanwhile, Zuko would die from embarrassment.
