Avatar Love talk 1: Who is the messier Avatar?
Kyoshi, looking at Korra's love life: ......... Korra: ........Kyoshi don't say it. Kyoshi: And here I thought I was messy. Korra: Kyoshi no! Wait, you messy? Aren't you a clean freak- Kyoshi, ignoring her: Really? You pulled your whole squad? You caused a whole situation? You really broke up a couple, twice. And made them both fall for you? Korra: I was 17 and never interacted with people my own age! Give me a break! Kyoshi: I lived on the streets and the only people who interacted with me my age just hit me in the head with rocks. Korra: ...............................I'm sorry. Kyoshi: No, no. It's fine. The reason I'm shocked is....I don't know who is messier. Korra: Come again? Kyoshi: Like is it you? Me? Or Kuruk? I need to know which one of us is the worst, it's keeping me up at night. Korra: ????!!!!!!!!!!! Really?! I...I wasn't expecting this development. Kyoshi: Oh yeah. Yours is a doozy. Kuruk? Man, I cannot even fathom a number to put to the amount of women he was with. Kuruk: I heard my name and came, but I'm thinking I should leave. Kyoshi, grabbing Kuruk: Oh no buddy boi, you still owe me for that damn poem. Korra: Wait, if Kuruk's a manwhore, and I had my squad wrapped around my finger.... What did you do? I thought you've only dated Rangi? Kyoshi: I had a crush on the false Avatar Yun at one point. Korra: Oh that's not- Kyoshi: He stabbed my girlfriend in the back. Korra: .............................. Kyoshi: Oh, and I had this guy feeding me a poem so people would think I was crushing on Rangi-which I was but that's besides the point. Kuruk: Sorry about that again- Korra: Wait that doesn't seem so bad! Kyoshi: The poem he fed me was originally about Hei-Ran. Korra: ...............................Another woman? Well I mean that's a bit-it's not that bad right? Kyoshi: Hei-Ran is Rangi's mother. Korra: Oh.....oh no- Kyoshi: And they look almost like twins. Korra: Oh....Oh dear Raava. Kuruk what did you do? Kuruk: In my defense, the only people who know that poem is about Hei-Ran and not Rangi is.....Me, Kelsang, Kyoshi, and now you! Korra: Holy shit that.....it's still a special kind of messed up. But hey as long as no one else knows- Kyoshi: Korra, sweetie, I have sooooo many mommy issues. And this bastard over here dropped a nuke right on top of it. Korra: ...holy shit Kyoshi: Now I'm not saying I am the messiest, but I'm def in the top 3. I'm still reeling.

My younger cousin (16) watched tlok season 3 for the first time. Here's her opinion of the characters
Korra: "is it bad that she got more attractive to me when she was suffering?" Me: "idk, maybe?" Her: "... i'll talk abt it in therapy don't worry"
Asami: "i'm so confused is there something between her and Korra???" Me: "you know i'm not gonna tell you" Her: "yeah i hate it when you do that."
Mako: "alright he got more tolerable this season i'll give you that"
Bolin: "and he got worse. So sorry" Me: "but the lavabending?" Her: oh yeah that was cool. He still sucks tho"
Tenzin: "now THAT is Aang's son right there. That shit was bad-fucking-ass."
Bumi: "again, now THAT is Aang's son. THOSE are his children. Not the shitty adults we saw last season"
Kya: "a lesbian?" Me: "doesn't get confirmed til the comics" Her: "oh for FUCKS SAKE"
Jinora: "i love her i cherish her she's the smartest and most powerful character in this show she beats everyone else"
Kai: "he reminds me too much of my brother and i don't like that"
Ikki & meelo: "they're still annoying i'm so sorry"
Lin Beifong: "she needs therapy"
Suyin Beifong: "of all the characters i expected, i didn't think Toph would get the messiest. Like not one but TWO baby daddies? Man. Suyin is cool as hell tho but she does give awkward soccer mom vibes"
Opal: "does she have more personality other than 'sweet cute girl for bolin to bang?'"
Zaheer: "best villain this universe ever produced only for him te become absolutely pathetic in the end bc bolin pushed a sock into his mouth. They should have kept him stoic and scary. He was so cool until that exact moment and they HAD to have a dumb bolin one liner. I'm so mad about this if you couldn't tell"
P'li: "sparky sparky boom WOMAN. A win for feminism."
Ming Hua: "i still think young Katara would beat her in a fight and i'd pay good money to see it."
Ghazan: "i have a rlly good joke about him" Me: "ok shoot" Her: "he's mista Lava Lava" *burts out laughing*
Lord Zuko: "ngl i screamed when i saw him on screen maybe i do like his character"
Varrick & Zhu Li: "HOW MANY CHARACTERS ARE IN THIS SEASON JESUS" Me: "and we haven't even gone over the president yet" Her: "oh my GOD"

So we're re-watching Arcane, and during the scene with Vi and Jayce murdering that kid in the shimmer factory, all I could think is that it's kinda like when cops blow up a meth lab, kill a bunch of civilians in the process, and claim they somehow made everyone safer.
Congrats, you blew up the drugs and it made everything demonstrably worse. Do you maybe want to try UBI and universal healthcare next?
I enjoy this show immensely but it invokes real-world social issues in the messiest way. They needed way more episodes to develop some of it and it sucks that they didn't really have the time. It kinda reminds me of Legend of Korra in that regard.
I wish they'd been able to take the first three episodes and make them a full season on their own. There's so much stuff I wish had been developed a little deeper. Aaaaa. I hope they get more time to play with stuff in season 2.

@loved-the-stars-too-fondly​ tagged me in a ship meme! I will try to make this interesting lol.
1. First ship
It’s a tie between Aladdin/Jasmine and Simba/Nala, because I saw both of these movies about the same time as a little kid. And my sixth birthday cake had a picture of Aladdin and Jasmine on it, and I used to tell stories about them to myself on the playground, but I had plushies of baby Simba and Nala with magnetic noses that could “kiss.” 
2. First OTP
I am taking this to mean “first fic you felt strongly enough about to produce content for or engage with in a creative/fandom way,” in which case that would be Michael/Mia from The Princess Diaries. I wrote one (1) bad fanfic when I was 13 (about how Michael proposed and then Grandmere threw a fit BUT then he saved her life while they were horseback riding) that’s still on ff dot net somewhere, and I read basically every fanfic for them that was available on ff dot net. I still have an enormous soft spot for them and I reread the books every few years.
3. Current favorite ship
Since I’m on a Dimension 20 kick right now, even though I haven’t read much fanfic yet I’m going to say both Fig/Ayda from Fantasy High and Ricky/Esther/Sofia from The Unsleeping City. Fig/Ayda is incredibly cute because Fig is a tiefling with shapechanging ability who had a string of questionable romantic encounters with much older men before meeting Ayda, the teenage curator of a magic library who is also an autistic Black phoenix. Fig is very impulsive and brash, but also emotionally closed-off and insecure, but she starts bonding with Ayda because Ayda thinks she’s really cool and admires her bravado. Fig doesn’t know what to do with someone who’s so intimidating but cool who seems to really like her, and, well, you can watch this scene where they get together, it’s very good. It contains Fig vomiting into a bush, then saying “I think you’re perfect the way you are,” then skateboarding away in a panic. It’s maybe the most accurate sapphic rep I’ve ever seen.
Ricky/Esther are just two incredibly nice people who get together in The Unsleeping City, but I think that they should also get together with their friend Sofia because of reasons. I genuinely think the canon supports this reading quite a bit.
4. Your ship since the first minute
I have a fun story for this, which is that literally since day 1 of Korra, I wanted her to have a girlfriend (post date: 12/7/11), and the second Asami showed up I was like eyes emoji. And then I dropped off the show after the first season for a few reasons, kind of assuming they would never do an f/f couple and casually shipping Korrasami sort of out of spite, but THEN my friend messaged me immediately after the finale like DUDE YOU’LL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED. And that was honestly one of the emotional high points of my fandom life.
5. Ship(s) you wish had been endgame
I have...many! Bering and Wells from Warehouse 13 is paramount, obviously, because that is a wound in my soul from which I will never recover. Cartinelli from Agent Carter slightly less so, but I think that was truly the last time that I had real hope for a canon f/f ship. I think Matt/Foggy/Karen should have all been romantic together because Matt/Karen by themselves has weird vibes and I don’t like it. Obviously I think Fitz should have died in the series finale and Skimmons should have been canon, and as far as I’m concerned he died of a brain tumor after that and then they got together. (Daniel is also involved still, he’s a chill dude and I like him and it’s fine.) 
6. Ship you wish was canon
Grace/Dani from Terminator: Dark Fate, because wow did they shoehorn in an incredibly hilarious attempt at mommyzoning Dani (didn’t work, it’s still gay fuckos). But it would’ve been nice if they’d just leaned into it and let the horny lesbian ghost that possessed the screenwriters make it explicitly gay. Also I think Cameron/Donna and Gordon/Joe from Halt and Catch Fire should have been canon because that show is already basically about the world’s messiest polycule anyway, and Joe is canon bi and already treats Gordon like a booty call, and Cameron and Donna act like either romantic partners or bitter/awkward exes, so like. c’mon. Also I think Daisy/Robbie should have been a thing.
7. Ship that most of the fandom hates but you love
Natasha/Bruce is cute COME AT ME. Age of Ultron is a bad movie but they could have been cute!!!!
8. You don’t even watch the show, but you ship it
Uhhhh. Most things I end up secondhand shipping I end up consuming the canon for eventually lol. I was secondhand shipping Cameron/Donna from Halt and Catch Fire last year because my friend was watching it but then I just...also watched it lol. Uhhhh. The Killing Eve lesbians seem fun I guess? I’ll get to that eventually.
9. Ship you wish had a different storyline
I’m digging deep for this one, but Buffy/Faith from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I think they had SUCH a cool dynamic that kind of stopped getting explored after season 4, and it’s a bummer. I don’t think they’re like, endgame or true love or anything, but I think they’re sort of the messy pair that can’t completely disentangle from each other, and maybe they don’t even really want to? I think that they couldn’t live in the same house or anything but that they meet up and hang out and probably fuck every couple years, and it’s good.
10. Favorite ship(s) that’s endgame
GAMBIT/ROGUE GOT MARRIED IN THE COMICS. I’M SO PSYCHED. I don’t know if Karolina/Nico from Runaways counts as endgame but I love them, and I also love Gert/Chase. I’m rewatching Nikita and am delighted to know that Michael/Nikita is still very good. Priya/Tony from Dollhouse is also very good. Daisy/Daniel was honestly the best outcome SHIELD could have realistically given me and I was quite happy with it. I don’t know if Magnus Archives ships count but I really like Georgie/Melanie (we stan sapphic accidental apocalypse cult leaders). Oh and I like all the canon Avatar: The Last Airbender ships too.
EDIT: I FORGOT MY BELOVED ARAGORN/ARWEN AND WILL/ELIZABETH (PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN).
I’m tagging @swiftzeldas @toriasimmons @dollsome-does-tumblr @theomenroom @zenithofdork if you wanna!

17 and 23? Also wow u are so productive to be doing hw too
Well don’t be too proud of me, it’s already late aha
17. Instead of XYZ happening, I would have made ABC happen…
Okay, so I’m think season 2 of lok is the messiest (which I understand why, under the conditions it was made it’s a miracle but still, mess) I think I would try to fix it by merging the loss of Korra’s bending in with the spirit portal plot. So season 1 ends on a cliff hanger and instead of just happening to be in the South Pole and there being evil spirits I would have korra go seeking spiritual advisement, like they’ve tried physical healing but Katara tells korra its a spiritual wound, tenzin tries to help but can’t (maybe this is the first episode, it’d end with korra deciding she needs to find someone else)
Additional notes would be mako is not a cop, Asami is actually involved somehow, and if we’re keeping Bolin’s acting subplot nutuk has to be made by the fire nation to actually be an effective comment on the sort of films it’s mocking (ahem nanok of the North) but I’m not married to it either so I’d probably cut that too
23. An unpopular character you love
Mako hands down. although he doesn’t seem as unpopular as he used to be, the mako defence squad has pretty healthy numbers. But the old fandom and even now off tumblr he still is a pretty universally hated character (for literally no reason, he has never done anything wrong ever and I love him)

Love Talk 4: More mindfucks
Direct follow up from this (we're diving back into the messy love lives from ep 1 again)
Kyoshi: All I'm saying is: I slept with Rangi on my first try, while Kavik refused to sleep in the same bed with you! Aang: Please Kyoshi! She's already dead! Look at her! She's convulsing! Kyoshi: Fine, I rest my case. Roku: That's not the only thing resting. Sigh, Rest in Peace Yangchen. Korra: I spiritbended her! I think she might be ok, but she'll be out of commission for awhile. Kyoshi: Tch. Damnit. Aang: Can we please change the subject? Kyoshi: The subject's been about love talk, and it's still about love talk. Nothing has change! Roku: The dead ghost in the corner says otherwise. Kyoshi: "Dead ghost" do you know how stupid you sound? It's redundant. Aang: Leave it to Kyoshi to figure out how to kill something that's already dead. Kuruk, trying to change the subject: So Sei'naka women, am I right? Kyoshi: .......... Korra: Wait, Sei'naka....isn't that your wife's clan's name, Kyoshi? Oh wait-no Kyoshi: God I wanna fucking murder you. Kuruk: I was just thinking, since you love talking about Rangi- Korra: C'mon Kuruk, I'm with Kyoshi, even I don't want to think too deeply on you rizzing up a woman, only to die and have your reincarnation end up with her daughter. And the daughter is like a carbon copy of her.... Kyoshi: Thanks for summing up my issues, Korra. Totally didn't need a reminder. Korra: I'm detecting sarcasm. Kyoshi: How about you detect this foot up your ass. Kuruk: Ok ok, calm down, kid. I get it, you're love life is messy and kind of a mind fuck. It could be worse! Kyoshi: Yeah, I could be you. Kuruk: I mean you kinda are but. No nvm. Kyoshi, I know I slept with countless women, but that's not the worse- Kyoshi: Oh no, I mean it must've been a real mindfuck watching your successor, who has your dead wife's face, macking on the daughter of your ex-girlfriend. Watching us, it must've looked like Ummi and Hei-Ran were cucking you, huh buddy? Kuruk: ...................................... Korra/Aang/Roku/Wan:
