#sokka does too but more in a 'haha i'm your lovably annoying little brother' kind of way

[ironinkpen]

firebending masters was truly EVERYTHING. aang not seeing zuko as a threat AT ALL to the point where he's almost insultingly comfortable going off somewhere w him alone. zuko grumbling about how fast appa is going like an asshole older brother on a road trip. the smug little "where's that upbeat attitude you were talking about :)" aang telling zuko to his FACE that people think he's dumb. aang flipping zuko like a pancake and then bitching that zuko's not helping him. "you just haaaad to go touch the giant egg, didn't you :/" the entire concept of two of the most skilled young benders in the world sitting in goo together for hours in absolute silence until aang opens his mouth to complain. "what do we do now?" "idk think about our place in the universe?" zuko telling aang he's a talented kid. aang trying to steal fire from the hands of a guy who has actively tried to flambe him before. zuko whining about aang trying to cheat off of him. "you still think we can take them?" "shut up i never said that."

honestly what is a foil but a best friend just waiting for you to annoy the shit out of them forever

i just can't get over zuko and aang's dynamic. these two tragic foils, these boys who both wear their history on their faces, who both lost their homes to the fire, these born enemies, both bound by big, grand, lonely destinies, the prince and the avatar,,,,,,,, and who, the moment they're able to interact with each other for more than two seconds, both immediately devolve into the pettiest assholes alive
