#fanon zuko

[littleweowmeow]

Fanon Zuko killing me. Please boy stop crying I can't take it anymore. We all know you never been worse firebender, people so blind or likes more drama. I can't stand it.

[phoukanamedpookie]

Show!Zuko would beat up Comics!Zuko.

Just constant ass whuppings. He'd make the Fire Teens' Ember Island fiasco look like Air Nomad preschool.

[mfelewzi]

Well, It isn't always like that. For Example, in Book 4, Light and Darkness, yes Zuko wants helping her sister, but he has a lot of unresolved problems, and not Just with his sister, or not.

And NOBODY IS FULL INNOCENT!

And for who want to know, It's a Zutara fiction but It doesn't suck, and when ZuZu isn't a "poor innocent mama boy", and Katara isn't a strange version of a princess in a Conan the Barbarian’s comic.

Yes, that's a reason cause I don't hate all Zutara fans. While I hate that strange interpretation of Zuko created by some fans!

ever fandom about zuko giving azula second chance have a same issue, random character said something like“zuko you never want kill us all” “zuko you are kind, she hurt you” and zuko said something like“she is my sister i want to give her second chance just like you all give me” “why cant you guys understand she is my baby sister”

meanwhile no one remember zuko were the one who sent assassin to almost killed the gaang, just like zuko forgot him burned suki village, like the gaang forgot zuko hunt them at b1 almost let them dead on the road

and azula didnt only hurt zuko bruh, is speechless when is the gaang said it out

what i hate is fanon zuko, canon zuko mostly annoy, but fanon zuko is ____ in many way

[queen-morgana91]

Damn atla fandom is always looking for the yin/yang dynamic and "soulmates" trope when in the canon series it's literally...... Zuko and Aang

I mean, Sokka IS absolutely Aang's best friend and brother, but the soulmates platonic bond belong to them

Enemies to friends, opposite elements in terms of temperament, both related to Roku and Sozin, both have "restore my honor" thing, both have scars from Azula, "the Avatar bring Zuko hope" line etc etc

They are meant to be friends bonded by the universe (Roku and Sozin again, hello?) and their respective paths were constantly intertwined. You learn about their backstories BY PARALLELS, BY DREAMS

“The storm” and "The Avatar and the Fire Lord" are two of my favorite episodes because it really highlights how their fates are intertwined

They are THE narrative foils of the series. From episode 1 until the very end you know they are connected

I mean look at Zuko here

You can’t tell me Zuko didn’t think about this convo/experience in general all the time before switching sides. He’s not angry or disappointed. He looks contemplative, like what Aang said really got to him, even if he doesn’t know it yet.

Aang couldn't never hate Zuko because he knew why Zuko was the way he was and Zuko was obsessed with him for 3 seasons.

In the end they are presented together side by side as the Fire Lord and the Avatar. Their union is what will bring peace

But since it's not a "romantic connection" this relationship is ignored bruh

[katerina-q]

the only reason this girl is so hated is because she's the one that Zuko actually LOVES

[myhyperfixationisiforgot]

The ATLA renaissance shifting the fandom from Zutara towards Zukka without actually changing the ship dynamic is so fucking funny because most of the time it functions pretty well. However today I saw another 'oh Sokka had this forbidden crush on Zuko from the beginning' and. Look. What happened there? Seriously, did we watch the same show? Fucking nobody likes Zuko from the get-go! He's an acquired taste at best. Jet notably falls for Zuko at first sight under explicitly false pretenses. Sokka has both a brain and a decent understanding of Zuko's early role in the Fire Nation. He would not say that.

[rusty-lustful-fireflies]

My hand slipped

Chad Jet vs Virgin Zuko

Jet is quite literally everything zuko thinks and wishes he was

[nijae-roni]

this scene happened in my head so it's real

[purplew]

tHIS IS THE LEVEL OF UNHINGED IM HERE FOR

[ultfreakme]

Look you can’t dismiss Zukka as a crackship when they, overall, had more positive interactions with each other than many other fanon Zuko or Sokka ships that are taken more seriously because they’re het.

Like okay, you’ve got

the episode 1 armor parallel

 Sokka saying “if there’s one thing I know about Zuko, it’s that he never gives up”

Zuko’s time at Western Air Temple where Sokka’s the only one who’s helping him to his room and even smiling at him.

Then we get TWO WHOLE EPISODES(TWO) of Zuko and Sokka working together extremely well and the narrative itself showing how they complement and support each other positively.

Need I talk about the tent scene, yes its funny but also Sokka felt comfortable enough with Zuko at that point that he talked about his mom with Zuko.

The SWORDBENDING KAI

the fact that Zuko, Sokka and Suki become a little sub-trio during Ember Islands

the Search comic where they’re the only ones awake and they’re talking about family.

every zukka shipper knows this one, *ahem* “The prince and the fool, is that all you were, or were to one another?”

If we’re talking on Zutara terms, Zukka is equally as valid. Like yeah it’s funny as a dynamic but also, it’s not like this is completely out of nowhere. There’s stuff in there that backs up the ship rather well.

I think overall, Sokka saw Zuko as more of a person? The crystal caves thing put Zuko on Katara’s shit list, rightfully so, but it’s because Katara’s an idealist and sees the best in people. Unfortunately it goes the other way, she’s a lot more black and white about people than Sokka. Like if it were Sokka in the crystal caves and Zuko had pulled the mom story, Sokka would empathize but he’s not going to trust Zuko in any capacity or see him too differently unless he showed results.

Like he knows to some extent Zuko’s capable of good and even says that just being capable of good isn’t enough. He needs to show it. Zuko betraying them in the Ba Sing Se definitely would’ve pissed him off but like, to some extent, he’d have seen it coming. Sokka’s always been more nuanced on the morality thing than Katara and Aang. Which is why I think he more quickly was willing to give Zuko a chance at the Western Air Temple. Zuko was acting on his ability for good. Sokka being a skeptic actually helped them a lot(oh, Jet my boy).

Anyways Zukka rights

[leantailean]

write in the tags why do you think so?

[satansbiggestkinnie]

My multishipper ass is going wild.

(I'm late,but still!)

[aanglican]

i will forever wish that the atla writers either (1) wrote iroh as an inarguably repentant ex-imperialist whose behavior and actions in the story aligned with this fact, OR (2) embraced the fact that iroh was not wholly repentant about his past actions at all.

bonus points if they have zuko - who is on his own journey to redemption - realize this about his beloved uncle, thus forcing him to think for himself on the matter of his place in the fire nation. the story could do with a more pertinent message about fire nation royal family members rejecting imperialist ideals for the sake of rejecting imperialist ideals instead of relying on family dynamics as the sole/main source for interpersonal conflict (and stand-in for morals.)

[k8lynjoy]

"I ship fanon zk" so you ship Kataang, got it

[queen-morgana91]

The first thing Zuko did when he found out Ozai is not his father (read the comic to understand lol) was to find Aang and tell him

This relationship is one of the most important relationships in the series and i will never stop talking about them

[fossilfan39]

I love your modern jetko ideas :) do u have any more headcanons (modern or otherwise)? u shld write something…

Woah thank you :))))!!! I definitely want to try my hand at writing something BUT I’m shy.. so for now im posting my concepts

Jet is Not socially ..challenged.. like zuko..BUT after years of having this impenetrable mask + intensely manipulative tendencies as a means of survival, he suffered a sort of burn out. With time he more or less moved past that. Still a bit of benign manipulation, but only in the sense that he has an understanding of people in a way that easily allows him to choose the right phrasing to get his desired response. <- This wouldn’t work with zuko because he’s autistic doesn’t seem to operate using the same social rules as everyone else, so Jet would lean into gratuitous flirting and comments so sincere they almost come off as sarcastic. Attempting to charm zuko by being disarmingly genuine.

Zuko is generally miserable and hard to get along with (at least in the beginning). Jet would be drawn to him because of his scar <- “you’ve had a hard life like me trope. In my au zuko goes to an all boys catholic school, and his family is catholic. Their relationship with religion is complicated at best. it’s more of a performance + Ozai using religion & shame as a means of control. One must imagine God being a surrogate for your father when he cannot reach you. Zuko is a huge dick to Jet at the start, only because Jet lets him get away with it. Zuko’s never been around someone who allows him to take up so much space. Pushing jet away just makes him even more interested. They make me sick.

Jet would .listen to 2010s trap and hip hop, have at least one piercing, and smoke cigarettes

Zuko would listen to 90s emo. I say this because I believe URSA would listen to 90s emo. I have many modern Ursa opinions. Because I can imagine anything….

I have limited knowledge of New York/Jersey BUT☝️I know enough to know jet belongs there (or Chicago perhaps. But east coast ftw)…. He would be chinese + Italian <- inspired by natla jet actor. Adore him.

Zuko would be a native New Yorker. I find the idea of Zuko being from New York & forced to relocate to Jersey to live with iroh funny. He would hate that. He would commute to school <- I’m not sure how plausible this is. Feel free to let me know…
