[hazashiovo]

hii i was wondering if it was possible if you could do a korra x earthbender fem reader who is lin’s daughter?? thank you so much!! 🫶🫶

Ooo ,yes ofc <3

The best view

"Stop staring." You words cut the thick silence in the room.

"I'm sorry,I just never expected Beifong to have a kid." She crosses her arms, looking you up and down. You scoff anoyed at her rude staring. "So? It doesn't mean I'm a painting so you can stare at me." You roll your eyes."Like mother like daughter." She mumbles,loud enough for you to hear her.

"I could never be like my mother." Her eyes follow you figure as you walk towards her. The girl then continues,"How come you're not in uniform?"her gaze eyes you up and down. "I'm not a police officer." You speak, making eye contact with her. "I just thought that if she had a kid, she would want you to work with her or something." She tilts her head looking at you. "She did,It was me who didn't want to."you slump down on the couch.

"I saw you bend,and I think you're pretty strong." Her body remains standing. "My bending is not the problem." You leave out a small smile at her compliment.

"Then what is it?" Before you could say anything, Lin enters the room. "Chief," your gaze follows Lin's.

"I have a matter to discuss with the two of you." Lin's gaze moves from you to the girl.

"I mean,that's the whole point why you got me here.* The dark haired girl shrugs,sitting down on the couch.

"(Name) ,I want to introduce you to Korra,the avatar." You look at the girl with furrowed brows. "She's...the avatar?" You tilt your head,how could she be the avatar? She looks fine or whatever,but you imagined her to be something... different?

"Of course I'm the avatar! Who else would it be?" She chuckles at your confused expression,Lin continues. "Yes,and you will show her around Republic city,and make sure nothing happens to her." Lin commands, staying strong in her uniform, a fierce look on her face (like usual dare I say).

Your brows remain furrowed, "Why would you trust me with this task?" Your arms now crossed, suspicious of her trust in you.

"The two of you are close to age,and since you're my daughter,I trust you make sure nothing happens to Korra." Her words take you by surprise,you nod, smiling you nod. "Nothing will happen to the Avatar in my presence,I promise." You feel so proud,she finally has something important for you to do.

"I don't need protection,I'm the avatar? remember?" Korra crosses her arms.

"And I'm the Chief in this town ,and if you want to walk freely in my town you will do so with my daughters protection." Lin narrows her eyes at Korra.

"I am more than capable of taking care of myself!" Her defiant nature amuses you.

"if you wish to remain in Republic City you will obey my rules. End of story." Your mother slams her hand on the table, clearly done with the girl's comments.

"Fine! Whatever." Korra ends up leaving the room, allowing you and your mother to be alone.

"This girl..." She sighs,sitting down on the couch facing the one you're on.

"Working with her will be a challenge." You joke, earning another sigh from your mother.

"You're a big girl,I know you're capable or I would have assigned you for her." You smile at her (sort of?) compliment.

"I'll do my best." Earns a nod from Lin.

You warmed up to her rather quickly,and the other way around. Turns out she's a pleasant company to be around.

For the next few weeks you spend time with Korra,even getting to know her better, sharing a few things about yourself.

Besides the fact that she's a little cocky (a little more) Korra is a great person to be around.

"So tell me! how was it being raised by Beifong? Is she always like that? Did she want you to take after her?" You smile at her curiosity, "Sometimes, but as a child she never implied I become a soldier,like her" the memories bringing a nice warmth in your chest.

"My mother would sometimes take me outside of Republic City, we would hike for hours to get to the most breath taking view I could see as a child." Korra watches your expression, she must admit,you're very pretty.She finds herself staring at you quite often,but she can't figure out why you're so captivating.

Once you lock eyes with her she forgets anything she wanted to say before,just staring at your face.

"Republic city is boring,I know a place you would like." You smile,taking her hand in yours, passing by many streets.

She looks at you confused as you tell her to hold on.

The earth beneath your feet started rising up,until you decided it was enough.

You started walking deeper and higher to a place only you knew.

"Where are we going (Name)?" She speaks between chuckles.

"You'll see,just trust me." You look back at her ,winking.

Her face is slightly warm to touch,Korra follows after you,passing by trees and going higher up a hill.

If she wasn't so busy watching your body instead of the place you were leading her too she would have noticed the view already.

"Were here!" Your voice brings her back,gaze moving away from your body ,now focusing on her surroundings.

Hands still entangled you stop , letting go of her hand. Her eyes fall on her now empty hand, slightly disappointed.

"Korra,look." She follows your voice, gaze falling on the breath taking view in front of her.

Your hand takes hers,leading her next to you on the grass.

"It's beautiful,isn't it?" She looks at you, analyzing your face ,reading its expressions like it's an open book for her to learn from.

"It is." Your eyes meet,locked on each other. Your hands entangled on the grass, the looks shared between the two of you speak like no words ever could.

She leans in,one hand now cups your cheek,her skin is so soft..

"Korra I..." You struggle to find the right words,mind clouded by the thought of her and only her. Fortunately there is no need for words,not now.

Her eyes scan your face for any kind of resistance,any kind of hesitance,but there's none in sight.

Her lips crash into yours in a soft ,loving kiss.

Korra's hands are cuping your cheek, while yours are around her waist. Fingers gently rubbing the material on her skin.

The kiss lasts a few seconds,but it feels like time stopped.

You move away from Korra's lips, smiling while looking at her bright blue eyes.

"I just kissed Beifong's daughter." You laugh softly at her words,placing a strand of hair behind her ear.

"The avatar kissed me." You grin,noticing her proud smile.

"And I'd do it again."

Took me a little to search for a plot ,but here it is. Hope you like it ;).

Depending on the attention this fic is getting,maybe I will make a part two.

I JUST SAW SUM1 ON TIKTOK SAY

“the reason why toph can't bend the moon is cause she doesn't know where it is”

AND I CANT DEAL BC THEY’RE SO RIGHT

If she does know then she only doesn’t out of respect for Sokka

[disneydatass]

Was scrolling on insta and saw a post about the upcoming earth-bending avatar spin-off and all the comments were ofc men bashing the fact that it will be “another girl” and “this one will probably be woke and gay too”

And while this obviously doesn’t need to be explained or retorted it got me to once again think about the franchise as a whole and re-ignited my fire and unwavering stance that AANG WAS A SHIT AVATAR!

The very dude all these men “wish the show could go back to” was so weak it’s actually laughable. Aang, the avatar that ran away from his responsibilities time and time again! The monks disapproved of Aang as a whole bc he did not take his duty seriously. “But he’s just a kid” you say? Korra was fucking determined to be the very best out of the womb! If Aang did not get fucking bailed out by the lion turtle the world would have been destroyed by Ozai! Aang ran away from the air temple, he ran away from the gaang, hell he nearly gave up off the bat for his schoolboy crush in Katara. “But it was true love” you say? Kyoshi was in love and guess what? She and Rangi put their duty first. If Aang didn’t have Katara to reel him in from penguin sliding & constantly playing he would have never mastered the elements. He had the privilege of his past lives and refused to listen to them! “Aang was brought up to be a pacifist; he did not want to disrespect his culture” you say? Aang damn near went Anakin Skywalker on the sand ppl bc they took Appa to make some coin to feed themselves. Who bailed his ass out of that again? You guessed it Katara! He wouldn’t have even found the hidden library WITHOUT TOPH. He would not have escaped said library WITHOUT TOPH! Aang was written and shown over and over again that he was not about this life. Yet fast fwd to LOK he suddenly was all about being the avatar n put his duty over his own children! He even ran away from responsibilities of being a father! So much so that his son didn’t even think he loved him as much as his other siblings! It is canon that he is a walking contradiction and hypocrite; yet The amount of hate Korra got and still gets blows my mind. “Korra is a hot headed brat” “she’s so bitchy and annoying” “korra doesn’t come close to aang” KORRA GOT THE MF JOB DONE! Korra was mentally and physically tortured so much and did not have her past lives mind you! She did so much without support. (In the show and IRL) LoK was pulled from the network and had very little funding from the get-go. Bryke fought tooth and nail to give us the little that we got.

If this new show fails it will not be because the new avatar is a woman. It will be because once again the network has to spoon feed the little boy demographic because they can’t handle strong women, the very characters that ran this universe and made it watchable and allowed Aang to succeed in the first place!

Lifting Rocks 🏔

Earth bending Master Yodas methods are…rather unusual. If he wasn't so renown as one of the best earth benders in the world, Anakin would have brushed off his, frankly, wacky and nonsensical techniques.

I love Katara so much

Avatar What if!

GUYS! I just had a realization and I am now so Angry we had Korra instead of this…

What if instead of the Southern Water Tribe, the next Avatar after Aang was born in the Swamp! The Swamp is a VERY spiritual area right between the Northern and Southern Tribes so if they still want to do the Water Tribe Civil War plot this puts the Avatar in an interesting position where they are kin to both Water Tribes but not inherently connected to either.

Imagine the next avatar having grown up with Toph as their mentor since Toph decided to say "Fuck civilization I am going to go live in the woods and become one with the whole Planet! The Moment Toph senses her Twinkle-Toes she's sure as hell not going to wait till they come of age, she's gonna take her best friend on adventures again and be the cool chaotic aunt and mentor this Avatar needs. Seeing as these are the Foggy Swamp People I don't think they would mind their child hanging out with the crazy blind lady and going on adventures.

By the time they are Korra's age I could see them actually having a reason for having mastered Water and Earth instead of being a BS toddler prodigy, maybe even at least have a very strong connection with Spirit Energy, and could also know Plant Bending, Metal Bending, and Seismic Sense. The next element they would need to learn is Fire, so imagine Toph and the new Avatar just busting into Zuko's house and yelling "LIFE CHANGING FIELD TRIP!"

I want this AU now

i know it’s been a few days since this dropped, but i will never get over how cute her design is <333

i adore the clothes and the prosthetic leg sksksk 😞😞😞😞 i heard she’s an earthbender but idk how true that is

i looked on google for the meaning of her name and it told me these two. i wonder which one relates to her, or if it’s both !!

i wonder what happened for a new avatar and stuff like that.. if anyone knows please tell me!! not caught up on the avatar and korra lore, sorry 😭

oh and the other person is there too. forgot about them my bad

anyways if you hate them because it’s a new avatar or just because of the designs, you’re a hater, I’m sorry (not in a good way) !!! you guys are weak and pathetic ‼️‼️ she’s not even out yet and won’t be for some time. calm down ⁉️⁉️

Earth bending is actually so scary, and no one is talking about it. Imagine a serial killer with the ability to bury their corpses INSTANTLY and leaving ZERO traces of disturbed soil of broken stone. How many graves does the average earth kingdom citizen walk upon? How many disappearances have gone unsolved? How many restless spirits are there in unmarked graves, with families left to mourn and slowly forget?

[mryddinwyllt]

Atla live action really said bury your gays speedrun….. I’m so sorry but the queerbaiting fully worked on u

I think you may be a bit confused.

Queerbaiting Definition :

"the incorporation of apparently gay characters or same-sex relationships into a film, television show, etc. as a means of appealing to gay and bisexual audiences while maintaining ambiguity about the characters' sexuality."

There was no ambiguity - it was made crystal clear that they were lovers and both women.

If you mean pandering, then that's a completely different argument.

Personally, I want more casual representation. I don't want a characters sexuality to constantly be this huge performance. I want the focus to be more on the fact that they're two humans desperately in love rather than that *gasp* they're gay omg isn't that so special and different?? Aren't you shocked they're not straight??

I really enjoyed how the live action ATLA added this in because the focus wasn't on the fact that they were gay, no one cared about that. The focus was on how great and powerful their love was.

[purple-feits]

I love toph so much aaaa

[zukkaart]

Okay the blog that I got this idea from no longer exists BUT luckily I have a screenshot so here we go.

I saw this post a million years ago about body horror in avatar AND I was wondering if anyone would be interested in seeing artwork of the gaang in a horror style? I’m going to put the post below. I think I want to start with Toph because I think it would put an even more stark contrast to her backstory of being perfect and poised at all times.

Thoughts?
