the fact that katara has a losing streak against nonbenders and needed to be saved from azula everytime they met

Avatar AU - A Spirit messes up the world so that all the benders disappear leaving Sokka, Suki, Mai, and Ty Lee to try and fix things. However, they’re met with some resistance because some people don’t want the benders to come back.

Such a pretty outfit!

Thinking about, however sad it may be, if Aang had died earlier (shortly after Tenzin was born) Korra's team avatar could've been Lin, Kya, Tenzin, Bumi and Izumi.

I feel like the Gaang's kids would've made the perfect team avatar in another timeline

Au where instead of hunting the gaang down, Zuko goes to them like “I will help train the Avatar in firebending.” And gives the (true) excuse that he has to wait until after he learns earth. So he’s there from book one, following the gaang and just getting to know them. He had originally planned to betray them, but… they’re so welcoming, and they get into so many shenanigans and save so many people and…well, he can wait a couple more weeks to betray them. (He never does)

i keep thinking about zuko during the day of black sun, starting down his father who's goaded him into staying by torturing him with details of his missing mother, only to use that opportunity to try and kill him again.... only for Zuko to use a technique Ozai did not even know possible, flowing through motions that are distinctly not firebending demonstrating a power so different and deeper than Ozai could ever fathom... idk man just zuko

Coming into the fandom late, absolutely loving Sansa, and seeing the general fandom consensus on her was so jarring

this random middle school girl is just a lightning rod for every nasty thought people have ever had about girly girls being ontologically cruel and stupid. which is also what people do to her in the text it’s almost like the author was trying to Say Something? no. glitter eyeshadow just makes you evil

[discordiansamba]

Zuko's the one who suggests that Sokka train with Master Piandao for awhile in the avatar Zuko AU. After all, they're pretty close to where he lives. Don't count on me for an introduction though, I'm pretty sure he'd want to kill me.

(Sokka points out that he says that about everyone he used to know in the Fire Nation. Zuko counters by reminding them of the fact that his sister very much did almost kill him.)

But training under Zuko's swordsmaster? No way is Sokka passing that up. So he goes and trains under Piandao. Zuko helps him transport the meteorite to use as material for his sword but vanishes as soon as they get close to Piandao's place... only to pop out of the bushes after Sokka's duel with Piandao. Come out, Prince Zuko. I know you're there.

(everyone proceeds to jump out of their skin save for Toph, who just cackles.)

✨Non-bender Lin✨

inspired by this ask to @risingsoleil 😊 The idea is so interesting plus I got to incorporate some of my faves in it so yeah~

So this is my take on non-bender Lin :3

Korra gets her bending back because she’s the Avatar, but she can’t restore anyone else’s bending. So, Lin stays a nonbender.

In Book 2, Lin leaves the police force and goes to the South Pole to recover from PTSD, she has nightmares of Amon taking her bending, and hallucinations. Katara takes care of her during this time.

Lin also gets closer to Tenzin's kids during this period.

Jinora and Ikki feel bad for their Aunt Lin losing her bending while saving them, and they start hanging out with her more often.

They visit her during therapy sessions, bringing flowers and spending time with her their Gran Gran.

Meelo, being Meelo, calls her “Lady Hero” every chance he gets.

Meanwhile, Pema, already dealing with postpartum depression, starts worrying that Lin isn’t just getting closer to Tenzin but also to her family. She’s feeling insecure and suspects Lin is trying to take her place.

Tenzin and the kids reassure Pema that this isn’t the case. But still, Pema occasionally accuses Tenzin of seeing Lin, but the kids would back him up, saying, “No, Mom, we were with Aunt Lin, and Dad was at work.”

In Book 3, Lin is back on her feet and joins Team Avatar on their search for the New Airbenders. Asami, being the genius she is, comes up with a new tool for Lin:

Asami designs a maneuver gear (like Attack on Titan's ODM Gear) that mimics how metalbenders use cables for mobility. It allows Lin to navigate the battlefield as before, despite no longer having her bending.

Since Lin is still, and always will be an incredible fighter, She creates retractable blades (like in Assassin’s Creed) that Lin can use as a weapon since she refuses to use the electric gloves

As time passes, Pema starts to feel better, but her suspicions about Lin never completely fade. Now that Lin is playing a major role in saving the Air Nation and working closely with Tenzin, the lingering doubts continue to plague her. Eventually, Pema reaches her breaking point. Despite Tenzin’s constant reassurance and honesty, she realizes she can’t keep living with these doubts or stay in a marriage without fully trusting him. With a heavy heart, Pema decides to divorce him.

During their mission, Lin and Tenzin are working together again, but this time, Tenzin is 10,000x more protective of Lin. Why? Because she can’t bend anymore, and he’s constantly worried about her safety. However, he tries to hide it, knowing how upset Lin would be if she noticed. She doesn’t want pity or anyone treating her differently.

When the Red Lotus jumped on him, Tenzin came close to death, and in that moment, his life flashed before his eyes. He realized how much Lin had always been there for him, through everything (despite their past). When he was miraculously saved, the first person he saw was Lin approaching him. Overwhelmed with relief, he couldn’t help but reach out, trying to hold onto her, grateful that she was safe and sound.

By Book 4, Lin is looking even more badass with her upgraded gear. Asami added new features like bombs and improved blades, making Lin even more formidable. 

As for Tenzin and Lin’s relationship, it takes time for Lin to accept his feelings. She initially thinks he’s acting out of pity, guilt, or even because she's a second choice after Pema divorced him. But Tenzin works hard to prove that’s not the case. He truly loves her and genuinely wants her back, and he’s determined to show her that his feelings are real. "Just like old times" :3

I’m also on Ko-fi~ Feel free to buy me a coffee if you’d like to support my work! Thank you~ Roseey💖

I love @roseeycreates-blog AUs, so I took the opportunity to get it out of my system and draw something about one of my favorites🤭

I'll make a more elaborate one in the future, promise.

I'm presently watching Revenant and I have an idea™ for an AU.

Zuko's got the Blue Spirit latched to him (it's malevolent). Mai can see ghosts. She and Piandao are ghost hunters. To flip the dynamic Mai (the apprentice) is stoic and silent and Piandao is emotional. Of course it's not far from show characterisation except for the fact that I might make Piandao a little more emotional than he is in the show (which is actually a normal amount).

So, the main point could be getting rid of the Blue Spirit. But once that's done they figure Zuko's really good material to be a medium.

Mai and Piandao don't wanna risk it. But Zuko insists.

And they become a trio of ghost hunters or something.
