the sentiment in your post ab people being weirdo about zuko is nice but please also remember babying abuse victims is also Not It and zukos 16, hes not a grown man but hes also not like. 5. hes not a baby or an adult hes just a traumatized teenager yk?

oh yeah i understand what you're saying especially reading back about the stuffed animals thing. i get how it can sound as if i was babying him, the kickstarter for that thought comment whatever was that i still sleep with stuffed animals bc it brings me comfort personally, but now that you mention it i get how it can come off as infantilizing. i do ask of you to familiarize yourself with my writing and values and my view and interpretation of zuko’s character before making assumptions out of one post, since i cannot captivate zuko's entire character and essence in one reductive joke. if you already did it and still felt the post was out of place feel free to ignore this.
