#in blue and white

[commehter]

Toward the beginning of In Blue and White, Aang claims, "Kyoshi said -- something not very nice."

The conversation that actually went down.

Kyoshi: Aang, why are you trying to help this man? He's your enemy. Aang: Well, he saved me, so -- Kyoshi: We both know that wasn't his goal and he'll be your enemy again tomorrow. You should put him down while you have the opportunity. Aang: I can't just kill him! Especially not after he got me away from Zhao! Kyoshi: Fine, give me control. I'll make it quick. Aang: What? No! We're not killing anybody! Roku: Just ignore her, Aang. Murder is Kyoshi's answer to everything. Kyoshi: If you'd listened to me about Sozin, Aang wouldn't be left cleaning up your mess. Roku: The boy isn't his great-grandfather. Kyoshi: Pity. I'd be ecstatic to strangle at least two out of the four. *glaring and charged silence* Aang: ...Are either of you going to explain -- Kyoshi & Roku: No. Aang: Ugh! Neither of you are helping! I'm going further back.

i feel like not enough ppl are factoring in the cultural clash between laios and shuro and the many micro agressions shuro faced while being in their group. literally the name 'shuro' in itself is one

his name is toshiro 😭 lets also not forget that he has his own communication issues, in the opposite way that laios does- thats literally a factor in their argument, that his envy for laios's ability to express himself sincerely manifested as part of his distaste for him.

ig all this to say like, was their fight heart wrenching, especially when reading laios as autistic? absolutely. anybody whos ever been in laios's position knows how much it hurts to realize someone you thought was your friend doesnt actually like having you around, especially when they didnt tell you and you had no way of knowing due to not understanding their cues. but im begging yall to step back and see the nuance of this situation cause im gonna be real a lot of you are kinda just brushing over it acting like everything is toshiros fault and that hes a terrible person when in reality hes an average guy who really, really clashed with laios and it led to a very long misunderstanding due to their supremely opposite methods of communication. even laios and toshiro, after letting everything out in their fight, were able to come to an understanding and start a foundation for an actual friendship built on better communication

ok yknow what Edit: i shouldve made it even more explicit at the end of this post, i hadnt thought i would need to since i started the post with this, but i think a few too many people are missing my point so i just wanna clarify. i shouldnt have said 'really clashed' and left it at that because yeah they did, but it wasnt just their opposite methods of communication, it is also very much that toshiro was experiencing microaggressions via laios. it may have been unintentional on laios's part, but it still happened and wore him down, made it harder for him to communicate on top of both the more subtle social cues that he was raised with and his own communication difficulties. i also want to say that the fandom reaction to toshiro and the complete ignorance of this point is also racist tbh or at the very least ignorant. i understand that the anime did not cover this panel, and neither did the manga, as this was an omake, but im gonna be real with you guys. there are enough context clues within the story to clue you into this. if you didnt pick up on it thats ok, but i think this is a good lesson in picking up subtext in the stories that youre watching and/or reading. kui shouldnt have to explicitly say 'by the way laios was racist to toshiro' for this point to be understood, and at the very least, when the author portrays a character in a sympathetic light (as kui clearly does) it should make you question Why they are doing so and what makes them sympathetic, rather than youre immediate and only reaction to be 'well i hated what this guy did/said so i hate them and they suck'. idk exactly how to finish this, just. idk. question your biases and gut reactions to things you see in media and stories, and think about whether or not theres subtext that youre missing.

I used to enjoy Pokemon games a lot, but lately some of the newer entries have been kinda controversial due a variety of issues.

But instead of focusing on that, i'm here to bring you back to the past to the Nintendo DS era of Pokemon, where many (myself included) would say that the quality and care of the series was at it's peak!

She’s brown and a democrat, gotta get that birth certificate, that we’ll call fake news anyway. Apparently, if you can’t win in a fight, you gotta at least try to get your opponent disqualified.

Sad and weird.

Hi! I just started (and finished) reading “In Blue and White” and first of all let me just say that I’m loving it (immediately subscribed!)! I just wanted to ask if the Aang x Zuko will always be one-sided or not? It’s concept isn’t something I’ve seen before and I’m already invested!

Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying In Blue and White!

The plan is for the attraction to stay one-sided. Aang is twelve-going-on-thirteen and Zuko sees her as 'a child' rather than 'three-to-four years younger.'

If the story continues far enough into the future for Zuko to have an 'oh, she grew up' sort of realization, then there might be some potential.

I'm currently debating the possibility of an open-ended epilogue. It would allow for each reader to have their own headcanon for how things continue past what's written. That's probably the most fun for everyone.

Author becomes a real Debbie Downer below the cut.

Unfortunately, the more I think about it, the more any potential romance between the two seems doomed to be the tragic kind. The politics of the Fire Lord and the Avatar getting married would be messy if not impossible, and I don't see Zuko as the kind that would be satisfied with an Air-Nomad-style arrangement. (I'm not terribly convinced Aang would be totally happy with that, either.) And that's before getting into any of the division that would be created in their household as a result of having different expectations of their children based upon bending abilities. (The Fire Nation needs royal heirs for stability vs. rebuilding some kind of airbender culture/nation.)

Long story short, Zuko and Aang both have important duties that do not always align. (Theoretically, Zuko could leave the throne to someone else, but I don't see it happening given his personality.) The inevitable conflicts in their responsibilities would make any romantic relationship between them difficult, stressful, and ultimately ill-advised.

It's a real pity because the more I write of In Blue and White, the more I ship them, too.
