Shipping taang for the sole reason of Aang having a last name so he can be like "stop calling me avatar, it's Mr. Beifong to you" and Toph can be in the background like "DAMN RIGHT!"

the solution to all shipping discourse and shipping wars is multishipping in my eyes. And I am completely correct.

Another sketch before the entire thing, I think it's cute but man do I gotta fix it! And switch that A into E in the typo.

I got back into ATLA, and I've gotta talk about how Aang may have wanted Katara, but he needed Toph.

Aang needed someone who would challenge him, not someone who would be his "safe haven". While Katara often coddled/mothered Aang, Toph was always his equal. The two of them could have fun together without the mother-son/big sister-little brother undertones Kataang had. Katara always sheltered Aang, which is why he never grew and developed as a character, not even as an adult. If Toph saw Aang emotionally neglect two of their three kids because only one was an Airbender, she would have, 100%, put him back in his place because she never sugar-coated ANYTHING and faced problems head-on.

THIS is who I wanted Aang to end up with. Toph might not have been the one he wanted, but she was the one he needed.

These two were made for each other, just like Zuko and Katara (the two characters with the strongest emotional connection in the entire show, who understood one another like no one else + let's not forget all the romantic coding, thematic significance and symbolism that their dynamic is full of)

“BUT ITS PLATONIC!! THEY’RE JUST BEST FRIENDS THEY’RE LIKE SIBLINGS ITS GROSS TO SHIP THEM” and they’re also in love and having filthy sex. hope this helps

A gift for @westiec for donating to a great cause through @fandomtrumpshate. They are a fellow Taangian/Taanger who wanted a picture of Aang surprising Toph with a kiss while on his air scooter. I had a lot of fun working on this and corresponding with them. Thank you for the prompt!!! <3333

Can we like.. normalize skipping contents that we hate or contents that don't align with our opinion? I've seen the most beautiful ship arts in almost every social media platform and there would always be like

"Love the art! Hate the ship!"

Look, I know social media peeps do their best to stay positive but is it really that important to accompany your compliment with a COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY statement? Can people normalize keeping their opinions to themselves when it's not needed? Girl that is obviously a ship post. Why do you feel the need to say you hate it after complimenting?

THANK YOU SO MUCH for the compliment but I'd rather have you not comment on my post at all if you're just gonna leave backhanded compliments. Is it really that hard to JUST say "I love the art!" and be respectful? And if you hate the ship so much then do yourself a favour by scrolling up or down to avoid the content. Trust me, avoiding negativity would be better for your mental health.

It's not just happening in ship arts. Fanarts in general. There'd be like, a fanart of a character or a redesign and there will be comments like "I prefer them with this-that though." or "This-that suits them better!" or "I don't like them with this-that!".

Or there would be contents that talks about how this character is the best character of this show/game/movie or how this character has the best game effects and there would be like, "I prefer this-that character though." or "I don't see anything about *charactername though." or "Nope, *charactername is the best."

An example of this is when I was scrolling through contents about Furina's c6 plunge attack and infusions and how they are the best and there are a bunch of comments saying "I don't see Raiden though" or "Raiden's plunge is the best"

And I was like NO ONE ASKED??? Look, no hate to Raiden Shogun because she's literally one of my favorite characters. I love her plunge attack and I have an undeniable bias when it comes to purple and pink but the video was OBVIOUSLY NOT ABOUT HER. The video was not a misinformation and simply someone's opinion/preference.

It's like going to a room full of people talking about how they like the color red and saying something like "I prefer blue though!" Gosh why would you do that? It's just so EMBARRASSING and SO ATTENTION SEEKING at it's finest. And then when people call them out, they'd pull the "opinion" card and act like s victim. If you want people to respect your opinion, why don't you do it first?

People need to learn that not everything that appears on their feed is about them and to not take everything PERSONALLY because not everything is about you and not everything revolves around you. People can have different opinions and enjoy any content that they want even if those are opposed to your preferences. Being different from you doesn't make them less valid in any way.

If it's not illegal or harmful just keep your mouth shut, is it really that hard?

Instead of wasting your time commenting on a content that you don't like (and by doing so, the said content would just appear on your feed more frequently), why not search for contents you enjoy to satisfy yourself, yah?

Why? Because that's the normal thing to do. People have become so brave on whatever they say on the internet because they know they'd never suffer real life consequences.

Tying into a previous headcanon of mine that Zuko and Katara often bring their kids to meetings because they don't want to foist parenting onto a nurse, the steambabies end up developing their version of House (i.e. pretending to be grown ups) except it's Politics.

All you do is sit in a circle and say Serious Grown-Up Things then argue and shake hands (they might be in meetings but they're kids so they don't really know what's going on).

Whenever their cousins (i.e. the Sukka & Taang kids) visit, they rope them in for a few rounds of Politics, and the cousins just don't get it.

Steam baby 1: We're here to talk about the bill to give people more water! SB2: No water for anyone! Throw the bill out! SB3: Chairman, censure SB2! Taang or Sukka Kid: This game sucks.

Sokka, Suki, Toph, and Aang find the whole thing completely hilarious. Katara and Zuko find it funny too, but are also a little embarrassed that their kids' idea of fun is council meetings.

Sick of seeing anti-kataang people hijack my taang posts. If you're anti-kataang you clearly do not understand Aang's character and therefore do not actually understand taang. Keep that ship out of your dirty mouth.

"She wouldn't let him walk all over her."

Bitch, she was the one who taught him how to not let people walk all over him. Toph is on side 'Aang deserves better than all yall fools'. Toph is on side 'this boy needs to demand more stuff'. Toph is on side 'don't let Katara tell you what to do and treat you like she's your mom'. Toph is on side 'I understand anger and pain and do not hold it against you', 'but being a little bitch?' 'I'll totally hold that against you.'

But no, they only see Aang as a needy demanding unreciprocating toxic guy, and Toph as the girl who needs to fix him. Totally healthy, much healthier than kataang for sure.

Okay, I love red/blue ships as much as the next degenerate, but I think we should be talking more about blue/green ships.

Why (as a Kataang shipper) I kinda like Taang, just not the “hype”.

Hello A:TLA Fandom

So… TAANG

I kinda like it.

While I don’t particularly care for Zutara (fanbase aside, their is enough to form a romance and it weakens their interesting relationship IMO) I kinda enjoy Taang, it doesn’t hold a candle to Kataang and there’s no hint of romance between Aang and Toph in the show, but I like their relationship, they have good chemistry, and it has more basis than Zutara IMO. Namely because Aang and Toph are already very close friends when they first meet and they just have a more interesting dynamic IMO, they clash often because of their ideals and are polar opposites in a lot of ways, but still manage to form a genuine friendship and mutual respect deep down. Aang and Toph have an underrated friendship.

HOWEVER! A lot of people (especially the ZK fandom) only seem to ship Taang purely because it someone “gets Aang out of the way of Zutara” they wanna ship Aang with Toph purely out of dislike for Kataang and because they see Toph as they only other option. Not to mention most of THESE TYPES of people completely mischaracterize the Gaang.

[pineapple-frenzy]

👋🏽 Could you do a taang on your spare? (Toph x Aang) or Team Avatar? Thanks

I haven’t drawn taang in sooooo long omg :'>>
