i will accept and forgive and understand anything neytiri throws at spider because it comes from a place of trauma and considering what humans have done to her people is understandable. jake sully however, is human, i don’t care how blue he is. he referring to spider as a pet will not be forgotten. i will be watching him with a microscope next movie and i’ll choose violence. jake is literally the only character that i expect to treat spider better i don’t care.

I know I've been saying this in my tags, but from birth to around age three Lo'ak and Jake Sully were mortal frenemies and they both loved it secretly.

Lo'ak's throwing food at Jake and kneeing him in the dick when climbing in or out of the sleeping pile day after day like it's personal AND intentional. Tantrums begin when Jake enters a room and end when he leaves because he's aware Jake will cave and Neytiri won't put up with that shit. Anything Jake leaves near his level will go directly in his mouth, it doesn't matter what that shit is. If Jake isn't watching him constantly he will kill himself straight up. Jake asked Mo'at once if babies who are not quite yet sentient could be suicidal. If Jake leaves him alone for more than an hour he will scream until Jake comes back. Unlike Spider, who Norm complains constantly about losing cause he can silently climb anywhere, Lo'ak makes his presence known at all times. Jake just carries him around in a wrap over his chest like he's a large and inconvenient fanny pack that might try to vacuum up whatever Jake and his warriors are working on if Jake bends down too far. Jake has an x-ray saved from Norm of the time Lo'ak swallowed a whole spoon somehow.

There's a month long period after Lo'ak learns to walk where he insists they hold hands to go anywhere and he won't say why but Jake is pretty sure it's because an older kid said something mean to him about his extra fingers, so he keeps doing it even though he's become a permanent hunchback. He complains but Neytiri says he won't act like he likes Jake forever so he should treasure it. He imitates everything Jake does literally all day like the worlds smallest stalker, and Jake can barely take a piss without turning around to find Lo'ak trying to piss the same way somehow. He tells Neytiri it's too disturbing to treasure but she is not convinced.

Around when Lo'ak turns four he deems Jake uncool and begins stalking Neteyam instead (rip to that poor kid, Jake prays for him), and Jake revels in his peace and quiet for about a week until he realizes he's actually really bummed out and Neytiri was right all along and he liked it when his kid liked him.

Jack really does have a vibe of "young Quaritch + latina mom" with the curly hair and big brown eyes. We know that Paz was a brunette with brown eyes. Casting nailed it, methinks.

I rewatched Avatar 2. It is me. I am girls

now that jake said that “son for a son” im so ready to watch him defend spider for once in his life. i’m so ready to watch him make peace with his past, bc his character is away more nuanced than cameron himself seems to realize.

im officially a hater. i hate kiri x rotxo. it’s so bland. it’s so nothing. it’s born out of people hating spider. i’m usually all for chaotic ships but not that one!!!

the thing that lowkey kills me about spider is that, it’s you can’t blame anyone too much in that situation( except jake. fuck jake ). it’s unfair to expect neytiri to be okay with son of the man who destroyed her home walking around with her kids, it’s unfair to expect them to sacrifice their safety for spider when he gets caught, it’s unfair to hold it against her when she uses him as a bargain because she’s a mother who just lost a child and she can’t lose another. it’s unfair to hold her it against her too much. but at the same time it’s not his fault who his father is and it’s not his fault human imperialism is plaguing pandora again. it’s not his fault he is an orphan of war and it’s not his fault that he needed someone. so i can’t really hold it against him too much when he saves quadritch. it’s grey areas all around.
