9 times out of 10 zuko doesn't understand what sokka is talking about, he just likes listening along because he enjoys seeing his friend get so ramped up about whatever it is he's going on about

but that one time where he does go "wait but isn't that actually—" and he's right? that's when sokka finally gives into his urge to lean over and kiss him

Mailee week day 3 // Hair

Ty Lee still needs help untangling her braid

[A colored digital drawing of Mai and Ty Lee from the bust-up on a pale peach background. They are both smiling softly and looking at each other, and their hair are left down and open. Mai is standing behind Ty Lee, untangling her braid, while Ty Lee is resting her cheek in one hand and in the other she’s holding a hairpin with cherry blossoms on it.]

Blooming together as one. Day 2 with Flowers

Ty Lee has been keeping Mai safe for a long time.

In order to do this, she had to carefully keep her intent hidden from Azula, so even Mai hasn't noticed. When Mai doesn't want to listen to Azula, Ty Lee tells her she has to (because if she doesn't... who knows how Azula will react). When Mai says something a little too sarcastic and pointed, Ty Lee jumps in with a bubbly, silly comment to distract everyone. She does exactly what Azula says to keep tensions low. When push comes to shove in The Boiling Rock, and Mai goes too far for Ty Lee to bring her safely back, she follows her. And Mai, who hadn't noticed that Ty Lee's every action revolved around her, was shaken to her core. And if that's not love, continually watching out for and protecting someone else, even to the point of self sacrifice, then what is?

Mailee Week 2022, Day 1: Aunt Mai & Aunt Ty Lee | @maileeweek2022

Tiny little prince spending time with his favourite aunties. (Don’t tell Azula.)

[ID: A digital, coloured drawing of Ty Lee and Mai from Avatar: The Last Airbender, both in their early twenties, with a young toddler. They are depicted from the hips up, with Ty Lee on the left, holding the child, and Mai on the right, holding out her hands for him to grasp. They are both smiling with closed eyes. They are standing before a bush, behind which a little of the sky is visible. /end ID]

hyacinths that come back every year

written for @maileeweek2022, day seven: ember island or free day

Mai should tell her to stay with the Kyoshi Warriors, to stay somewhere safe, to not leave at all, to talk to her parents, to help her plan anything she needs, to take her to someone, to tell her that running away is not the solution, it never has been. She should do any number of those things.

Instead she says, “When do we leave?”

(ty lee runs away and mai follows)

Summary:

If the world were only them, Mai would fall asleep just like this - Ty Lee’s hair tickling her neck, the weight against her shoulder both grounding and comforting. They could fall asleep like this and not have to worry about Mai’s mother finding them still lying like this come sunrise. In a nicer, kinder, world, Mai would not have to watch every move she makes. She doesn’t know the meaning of swirling warmth in her stomach whenever Ty Lee touches her, but she knows it is not something she should indulge in.

five times mai & ty lee have to be careful when sharing a bed + one time they're allowed to hold onto each other

“You’re leaving?”

Ty Lee nodded, clenching and unclenching her fists in her lap. “Yeah. Tomorrow morning.”

Mai stared at her, gaze unwaveringly blank. “Why…” she paused. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

There it was—the question Ty Lee didn’t have an answer to. What was she supposed to say? It was a last minute decision (half-truth)? That she was too scared to tell the only person in her life that actually cared about her that she was joining the circus? She was a coward through and through.

“I’m sorry,” she said eventually.

[or, ty lee leaves for the circus tomorrow morning and has one night left with mai]

“you must love him a great deal,” ty lee whispers and it echoes in the haunting empty of their shared cell.

“what do you mean?”

“you’re afraid of azula, yet you betrayed her so he could escape,” ty lee says, not whispering but still very quiet and plain. not at all like her usual tone. “so you must love him a great deal.”

"Are those dandelions?" Mai asks, and it's a wonder that there's barely a tremor in her voice with how hard her heart is stuttering, how obvious her hands are shaking as she accepts the dandelions and clover flowers thrust at her the minute Ty Lee rushes back into the workshop. "You caught me by surprise!" shecries back, all sunshine and watery giggling as she uses her now-free hands to wipe at her eyes. "If I had known you were doing this then I would've come prepared! I've been planning for weeks—I have so many specially curated flowers back at the shop just for it!" Mai looks down at the flowers in her hands. They're hastily picked, a far cry from the striking bouquets back at the flower shop with the bruised petals and uneven stems and a clearly hurried attempt at creating even a passable presentation, and yet— They're beautiful. Mai has never pressed flowers into glass before, she's never had the desire to. But already she knows stained glass won't be enough, none of the vast array of colors in her workshop could ever come close to recreating the sheer radiance of such a declaration like these few flowers themselves do. "Well—" finally, the tremor presents itself, overwhelmed exhilaration flowing out to match her racing heartbeat as she asks, "do dandelions and clovers mean anything?" "They do!" and Ty Lee is beautiful. Full of delighted laughter, her eyes endlessly darting from the stained glass piece resting on the table behind them to Mai and then back again. Her cheeks are a light pink, a stark contrast to the shining reds of the glass and her own top, the most stunning color Mai has likely ever seen in her life. Ty Lee sways forward then, closing the gap between them as she slips her hands up the length of Mai's arms, up to cradle her jaw, before tucking her grin into the corner of Mai's gasping mouth. "But I'll tell you in a sec. Come here."

Mailee week day 1 // The Boiling Rock

It’s about the hurt-comfort 🤌

[ID: A colored digital drawing of Mai and Ty Lee. They’re both dressed in red prisoner uniforms, and kneeling on the floor of a prison cell at the Boiling Rock. They’re hugging each other tightly, with their eyes closed. The cell is dark, and there are four bands of orange light illuminating them.]

Mai dyed her hair with Sokka

[ ID: Digital image of Mai and Ty lee from Avatar the Last Airbender seeing each other for the first time since Mai changed her hair.

On top is Mai from her bust up, she is wearing a burgundy no sleeve turtle neck. Her eyeliner is burgundy with a black outline, it’s a triangle shape that goes up to her eyebrows, the width is approximately the size of her dark iris and the placement also aligns with her irises. Her eyebrows are black & thick, the tail end is shaved off. She has 8 black hoop piercings on her ears. She has small space buns on each side of her head and has bangs with longer strands of hairs on the side of her face. Her hair is black but the bottom of every piece of hair is dyed red. She is framed in a panel with a pink filter, and hearts and glitter surrounding her. On top of the frame is written: “Ty Lee vision”.

On the bottom is Ty Lee from the bust up. She is wearing a shoulderless pink top and a matching choker with a silver “T”. Her hair long brown curly hair is loose on the right side of her shoulder and goes out if frame. She also has short side bangs and silver hoop earrings with pink beads. She has pink lipgloss on her opened moth, pink heart-shaped eyeliner aligned with her grey iris with heart-shaped pupils. The outside on her eyeliner is dark pink and the inside is light pink. She also has a pinkish white winged eyeliner on. Her thin eyebrows are raised and she is blushing. Her face shows amazement. In a speech bubble next to her is written “You changed your hair... It looks so pretty!” / END ID]

[id: a digital drawing of Mai and Ty Lee from Avatar: The Last Airbender. They are drawn in a semi-realistic style and wear modern clothing. Mai wears a long plaid skirt, a striped turtleneck, a vest, and striped arm warmers. her hair is in the same style as in the show (gathered behind her, with two small buns on top of her head and two thin strands loose). She has her arms crossed in front of her and is looking off to the side with a neutral expression. Ty Lee is next to Mai with her arm reaching out, almost touching Mai's shoulder. She is waving to Mai with her other hand and smiling widely. She wears a tank top, sweatpants, and a heart-shaped necklace. Like Mai's, her hair is in its style from the show (a single braid with long side bangs). There are speech bubbles coming from both of them. Ty Lee's is a wall of text that starts with "Heyyy would you wanna work out w/ me later today? I know you're into throwing knives and" ... most of the rest of the text is obscured and gets smaller until it becomes illegible. Mai's speech bubble says "Fine ... I guess ...", while an arrow pointing to Mai is labeled "secretly loves it <3". the artist's signature is @commander-minkowski. end id]

heard about @maileeweek2022 and drew this in the spur of the moment ^^ I'm always a sucker for a goth/jock romance
