what if: dark avatar opal

YES yes omg yes

Listen that would be so fucking amazing. Opal would be an amazing Dark Avatar. Like she would fucking thrive, I think.

Like yes she is a very sweet and nice person, but I have discussed previously how I don't think that would be an issue for a Dark Avatar. As Vaatu represents Darker urges and emotions like anger, which are natural and useful. For example, anger is used for a multitude of different things, you just need to know how to direct it.

And Opal is very good at directing her anger and using it positively. She is able to express her emotions and upset clearly, she firmly sets boundaries with Bolin when he does something she doesn't like, hell, she even scolds Su and Lin for fighting. Opal would, I believe, be able to deal with the potential of Vaatu influencing her anger and negative emotions.

Opal also fits into Vaatu's aspect as the spirit of chaos almost perfectly. Her entire mini arc is her escaping her mother's established order, embracing a power seemingly randomly given and becoming a nomad, so far removed form her family's stable and rooted lives.

This arc is even reglected by her where in B3 it is styled and orderly while in B4, after she's come into herself as an airbender more, her hair is wild and unkempt.

Furthermore, Opal is one of Kuvira's biggest detractors, seeing through her bullshit immediately. A lot of this could be due to Opal's personal issues with Kuvira, but I do believe that it comes from a genuine clash of ideals as well.

While Opal holds a grudge towards Baatar for betraying the family, she actually seems to criticise Kuvira more for forcing her citizens to work slave labour and locking her oponents up in work camps. This seems to present Opal and Kuvira's grudge as not just personal but ideological.

Frankly, one of the biggest (and perhaps only) merits of Kuvira's rule over the Earth Kingdom was that she brought order to it after anarchy and chaos.

But Kuvira's "order" was tainted with opression, dominance and all the other hallmarks of totalitarian regimes. In short, ecerything bad about order, which is Raava's domain, Kuvira represents.

Would Opal being the Dark Avatar, a being meant to encourage chaos not fit perfectly in with this rivalry she has against Kuvira?

Now, if I were a crazy person I could tell you about how Opal trying to get Korra to murk Kuvira, someone threatening her home and family can be compared to Vaatu riling up the spirits to hurt the people who burnt the forest.

If I were a crazy person I would tell you how Opal growing up isolated and repressed in Zaofu would mirror Vaatu being imprisoned in the tree.

Thank god I'm not a crazy person.

But for real, I think Opal could be a good vessel for a dark Avatar. As I mentioned, before, I think she could take Vaatu's anger and manage it, but she can also be a bit mischevious and playful, which is similar to how Vaatu cracked a lot of jokes and teased Raava before his imprisonment.

I think that she could even sykoathise with Vaatu, since she has been able to seemingly forgive people who had wronged her severely, like Bolin, and even Kuvira (tho I still believe that was mildly coerced lol)

She would totally foegive Vaatu for trying tk bring about the end times. She'd probably try to befriend him.

Also. Opal being the dark avatar would make this scene absolutely god tier

Hell, there's even a potential canon compliant way this would fit.

Since the universe apparently brought back airbending to "return balance", and we know that even after defeat, Vaatu would begin to reform as "light cannot exist without dark, yadda yadda", it wouldn't be a stretch to imagine that Vaatu could begin to reform inside of one of the new airbenders.

We could also say that the Avatar cycle could be backwards for the Dark Avatar.

So instead of going:

Water>Earth>Fire>Air

We have:

Water>Air>Fire>Earth

Making the next dark avatar after waterbending Unalaq- Opal the airbender. I think Opal at firat would think that she's the same as all the other Airbenders but then ahe accidentally sets Kuvira on fire while arguing and has doubts.

Thw biggest question of this AU is if Opal would let Kuvira live lol

It wiuls certainly make a lovely story ans Opal would be an amazing dark avatar

Why is the secondary couple in almost every modern office romance Chinese drama a career oriented woman being straight up harassed by a childish playboy?

[chiveburger]

omg nothing actually causes me turmoil than watching a drama and knowing the plotline is crack to me but not fucking with the actors. I'm watching this relatively new drama with song yiren and I like her but she's stuck in this visual state where she can only realistically play a student. she looks so young and in her new drama she dates an older man and it looks and feels so weird. I think she's fine being in a university drama with a younger male counterpart but there's a part in this show where she jokingly calls this guy UNCLE!!!! the plot has tropes that I like but I straight up don't know if I can watch this like this feels wrong...
