Zuko looked up and locked eyes with his cousin, who was struck speechless. Then, ever so slowly, Lu Ten's lips twitched upwards. And then he smiled. And then he beamed. And then he nodded proudly once, just once, and vanished.
Lu Ten comes back in For the Spirits Chapter VII: Take Me South, only to leave Zuko with more questions than answers. Just how much is he truly aware of? When will he return? What is Zuko going to do now?
(What will the South bring?)
#atla#zuko#avatar the last airbender#atla fanart#atla art#prince zuko#for the spirits#spirit touched zuko#new gods au#lu ten atla#lu ten#atla zuko#zuko fanfic#atla fanfic#atla fic#atla au#fire nation royal family#For the Spirits Chapter VII: Take Me South#EVERYONE LOOK IT'S TEN TEN#My sweet darling baby boy—I love this bastard so much you have literally no idea#I played with the idea of making him look closer to the spirits in ATLA—blue and look-through and classically ghostly.#But that's not how Zuko sees them at all. Despite not being able to interact directly with material things (unless you're a high spirit)...#...ghosts and spirits look *normal*. Most of the time. Hence pretty Ten Ten.#I'm sure it was a mess for Zuko growing up. He had to learn which persons around him were *alive* and which ones...weren't.#Which is why that scene in Ch5 with Lu Ten is so heartbreaking for me...#Actually...any scene with Ten Ten is both heartbreaking and heartwarming in equal measure. He's amazing like that (I love him SO much)#I have big plans for him in the future! I'd love to hear your thoughts about where you think this is going and exactly what is going on#What is Lu Ten aware of? What (or who) will Zuko encounter in the South Pole? What in Agni's name is going on?????#What do you think of the blue eyes? Or Izumi's and Lu Ten's suspicious behavior?#I love your theories and thoughts! So if you have any please let me know ❤️

arthur (prince of camelot) still has to study under a tutor bc yknow uther wants him to be very intelligent before becoming king or something bc its super important idk idc anyways merlin is doing chores in his chambers while arthur is squinting at a book and merlin eventually caves and asks him what he’s reading and arthur gruffly explains that its a collection of stories from greece that make absolutely no sense so merlin asks him to read them outloud to him. arthur of course teases him and calls him an idiot and asks how he could possibly help but does as he’s asked and reads the stories to merlin as he does his chores. merlin (being crushed under the weight of destiny and tormented by the prophecies that kilgharrah spews) understands the stories almost immediately and gets all excited and starts rambling about them with arthur. arthur is glad to have someone who understands so he can give something that reflects a hint of understanding to his tutor who accepts it and moves onto the next unit of education.
the thing is, arthur finds more stories in camelot’s library and brings them up to his room to read them aloud to merlin under the guise of completing his studies but really he just wants to watch as merlin’s eyes gleam when he understands whats happening and listen to him ramble on and on about them bc he’s gay. the stories stick with merlin though and he realizes that they’re cautionary tales, that the heroes who were told too much of their future doomed themself to fulfill them - that them fighting the prophecies led to their completion. merlin takes it to heart and gives a big “fuck you” to kilgharrah before forging his own fate and helping morgana with her magic and handing out an olive branch to mordred and now everyone can live happily and peacefully in an albion teeming with magic.
#merlin and arthur are of course at each others side in the end#merlin is curled up with arthur in their bed and says a silent thank you to his king for saving him#arthur returns the sentiment wholeheartedly#bbc merlin#merlin emrys#arthur pendragon#merthur#fic idea#fanfic#fanfiction#headcanon#hc#head canon#merthur prompt#i have my own hc of fate vs destiny in bbc merlin and i like to incorporate that into everything i write#but then i realize that not everyone thinks that way lmao#i like to think that destiny is unavoidable. merlin and arthur are destined to form albion and lead it together#i think fate is like a fragile version of destiny#i think most people are tied to fate and will follow what they are fated to do unless those who arent tied down by fate change course#like i hc that seers are able to see the potential future of what is to happen should they not interfere#and the goddess leaves it up to them to choose. so like seers arent tied down by fate and can change the course of history#since merlin is literally magic incarnate i also think he isnt tied down by fate and can act to change things#kilgharrah told merlin the prophecy that would result in the dragon getting free and ending the pendragon line#and since merlin never got close w like any druids or magic users. no one told him the inner workings of fate vs destiny#so he listened to the dragons warnings dooming him to fulfill the prophecy that brought about one of the worst possible futures#bc the dragon was salty about his whole species being eradicated by uther and vowed to destroy the pendragon line#omg im ranting okay post over thank you and good night

I will never forgive fandom how unfair it is about Arthur
Dark Merlin It's usually good angst. You know, Merlin had had enough. Dark Arthur? Arthur is a fucking rapist, a monster.
Merlin guilty? Merlin feeling guilty and comforted by the entire cast. Arthur guilty? Arthur doing the worst things possible and someone razing him to the ground
Merlin always gets these nice things. always flowers, courtship, everything. Found family? Everyone comforts Merlin because big bad Arthur. (literally almost every Merlin "found family" is everyone loves Merlin and treats Arthur like shit)
Merlin gets an apology. Arthur? My parents will love me faster than someone will apologize to Arthur in fanfiction.
"suicidal, self-harming Merlin" but Arthur has no right to have mental problems (a whole lot of people have wanted him dead since he was born)
Protectivr knights? Always about Merlin.
Even the fucking omegaverse. Alpha Merlin is a nice calm creature who pretends to be a beta. Alpha Arthur... wild animal, keep Merlin in a cage.
No. Just no.
(forever grateful to those stupid British people that arthur never told merlin he was fat. because the fandom understands that something is a comedy if merlin says it. if arthur it would be ,,abuse")
#Have I ever told you that I hate this fandom?#everyone loves Merlin is my 13th reason#like stfu.#did we watch the same show?#also no#Merlin was no cassanova#Arthur deserves Nice things#and he doesn't get them#GIVE HIM FLOWERS.#the fandom doesn't deserve Arthrur#Give him a family. Give him a caring boyfriend. give him friends who are loyal to him and not to Merlin#I swear that if I ever see someone take Leon away from Arthur#because everyone loves Merlin#I will enter my villain era#I swear I don't touch Merlin fanfiction. I physically can't look at it#THIS FANDOM SHOULD BE BANNED FROM WRITING MAGIC REVEL#Merlin gets everything. Arthur is given the opportunity to look after Fanon Merlin#how I hate Merlin fanon#like what happened to my iconic loser. why is he charlie spring with angeline jolie's face#fanon Merlin doesn't deserve Arthur. unless it's Arthur fanon. fanon Arthur is something I wouldn't get close to without pepper spray#forever Merlin fandom hater#arthur pendragon#merlin#merlin bbc#merthur#the once and future fandom#bbc merlin#like cmon

So do we trust Korn's sugar baby? Or nah? Cause Korn came in and told him about his new position in the part of the company he didn't even know existed and I'm like ...was that a smart choice? Or no?
Cause the baby's reaction to hearing that was being like "that's cool cause you'll def be good at it, but can you fuck me raw now?" And I'm just like ...do we trust this baby? Or no? Cause Korn's family is obviously into some shady shit, so he's gonna get into some shady shit, so is his sugar baby gonna be shady? But the boy also just looked really bummed to not only not be getting that round two, which is understandable, but to just getting whole ass pushed off and left with a "sorry, you know how my dad is."
Obviously it's only been one episode so there's no answers, but I still have questions! lol
#4 minutes#4 minutes the series#I'm not really focusing on anything else at this point#because tbh the concept of I CAN SEE 4 MINUTES IN THE FUTURE is fine#but unless Great and the doctor were gonna smash in 4 minutes#he shouldn't have been seeing that at least? IDK#I'll continue watching because I would like to continue to see Job in glasses#and I wanna know what the hell is going on with that lady who tried to kill herself#but I didn't like the doctor so I'm like#well I see why someone shot you twice no offense lol#regular clyde#I probably should have watched the trailer to at least kinda get a feel for whatever the show's about#but alas lol

#demifiendcruithne this one is for you. i don't even know if this is your favorite pokémon but when i see it i think of you bc of your icon#lordy this blog is getting more and more difficult as time goes on. apparently we've exited the era of models Just Working for me and now#i have to spend hours tinkering with them just to get the eyes to show up and even then they don't look nearly as good as they used to#when they Just Worked#the alolan forms are kicking my ass. and i even tried to use the swsh models for these guys since i assumed those would work#but now i'm finding out that the Entirety of gen 8 is going to be even more difficult on me#dunno how much longer i can keep up This act unless i find some way to make this easier on me#alolan meowth#update from the future: incredible thanks to jodie-blend here on tumblr for her endless kindness in helping me figure out how to do#this at least a little bit easier. they'll still look a little bit different but at least this has me covered for gen 9#but for cases like alolan rattata and raticate i'm still fucked. also gen 8 i'm still fucked#but. the complaining above is now a little bit more bearable

25 days of coasters / 21. magnum xl-200, cedar point # of rides: 37 / last ridden: fall 2024
a very long overdue addition into my top 25! this ride is an absolute masterpiece; from how it operates with 3 trains, the absolute blast of a ride experience, & the powerful finale. i hadn't felt like i was able to truly appreciate just how good this ride was until i got the chance to work it for my final few months at cedar point. it was completely revolutionary for its time and holds up INCREDIBLY well today.
i've had multiple rides where i'd put it as my second favorite in the park, though that'd really mess up my overall rankings ... but really! it's just so good. i love the jank, the airtime, the music, the theme, the tunnels, and i absolutely loved operating it with 3 trains. the night rides are FANTASTIC, especially when the water park is completely dark ... i love how it's still almost so trapped in the 1980's, yet that doesn't deter it from being one of the best rides overall today.
trimless row 3 is an out of body experience. please give this ride more love because it deserves it & i don't find the experience that painful at all. it's just jank & old which adds so much to the charm!
#coasterblr#roller coasters#cedar point#magnum xl 200#arrow#mine*#i REEEAAALLLY wanted to move this ride up higher but i did the would i rather ride (x) or magnum from this point on and it was always the#other ride. but PLEASE dont let this 'lower' rank deceive you#this ride is fucking fantastic.#also i dont work for cepo anymore and i wont be for the forseeable future because my endeavors are in another universe atm<3#just alittle disclaimer. i havent talked much abt being an op on this blog but ik ive mentioned it a few times#and youll see at like 2 other rides ill talk about working them probably#and this blogs activity drops around the cepo season. but that wont be happening in 2025!!#unless i forget about it which i often do#anyways#phone

can someone plz cry with me
#txt#so overwhelmed#and dreading work#I am so nervous about my future#I don’t see a point in working towards a career that isn’t based on passion#and I’m so tired of the advice I get being “do something you can tolerate that pays well so you can focus on hobbies outside of work#bcuz like where? how? I can’t do anything without a degree. and degrees are expensive. and even if I had a degree. I’ll need to have years#of experience#I don’t want to do something boring even if it gets me by#and there probably aren’t that many jobs available any#so I’m in this limbo where I can quit work yet cuz I don’t fucking know what I should have lined up#and I wanna go back to school but the only in person classes I can take are 2 hours from me#and I can do it online but I won’t get the same connections#so I just have to exist in this state of unhappiness and know in the back of my mind that no job will ever satisfy me#bCUZ WORK FUCKING SUCKS UNLESS ITS SLEMTHING YOU LOVE AND TJAHS HARD TTO COME BY#thank you this is my rant. if you don’t like it jump off a cliff. it’s my blog and I’m blogging dumb a as

Are there still Crown Prince!Wilhelm stans out there despite S3 turning it into the number one problem? Please report, we need to unite and no, that doesn't mean that I don't support Wille's mental health and happiness and that I love the monarchy, some people out there must get it
#young royals#prince wilhelm#any crown prince wille believers speak up please don't let yourself be silenced alskdjdh#i'mma be loud and petty and just obnoxious about loving crown prince wille in contrast to what else i see and what the show says#it just feels so alienating these days and like you're wrong in finding crown prince wille interesting and preferring it#and you're not allowed to even express different thoughts bc canon told you this is how it is and how dare you want this life for wille#I wish i knew about more fics too that write about crown prince wille. it feels like that's forbidden to do now unless he's unhappy in it#and it's just shown how horrible it is and how trapped he is and exploring a different alternative with him actually being a competent +#confident crown prince in the future and simon and him still working out and working together and bring changes to the system#but the show has made sure the fans can't come up with their own interpretation and that's completely 'unrealistic' now#and going against canon and exploring a different possibility is somehow impossible now#and means you're an evil spokesperson for the evil monarchy#god forbid i want him as the fictional crown prince in this fictional show reading/writing a fictional story#stories where he renounces (and that's all I see nowadays implied or otherwise) are just not interesting to me and i hate it#i even try to avoid reading most drabbles bc of the implied reality they portray and barely go through the yr tag on ao3 anymore#when i say it's alienating to be in the fandom these days i mean it. it's tough and frustrating#anyway...anybody else feeling this way?#let me know so i can follow some more i really hope there are more active blogs#mine

I'm sure you've probably checked tags but you might want to do something about that blog that AI-ified your art. Ingore this ask if u don't mind AI k bye
Obviously I do mind. I do not know what prompted the last part, but it is completely unsolicited.
Anyways, I've already reported the post before, if that is what you meant.
#was this poor wording or just a forceful assumption or an insult#i'm open to constructive feedback and i prefer it to be communicated with clarity and respect#because frankly this is unwelcome and I strongly advise you to consider your choice of words the next time.#unless it was intentional#in which case- to keep it short- you are honestly idiotic#asks#to future anon haters: your efforts will be for naught for i will not even bother reading your ask and will delete it as soon as i see it#kime spam

What does kin mean?
The meaning can tend to vary depending on who you ask, but it generally means (TLDR:) identifying with a character in some way. Although it originated from the term "otherkin", which means identifying with an animal/another species, the way it's typically used in this context refers to "fictionkin".
Many people use it to describe simply relating strongly to a character and don't really see themselves as the character in any way, but it was originally used to describe identifying as the character in a spiritual/psychological way. To clarify, it doesn't mean that you think you literally are that character right now, in a physical way etc. It's more of an identity thing. (I could go more in-depth on what that means, but I'm going to assume that's more information than you're looking for.)
It's kind of a Tumblr/internet culture thing, but I'm not very involved in the community or anything because it's more of a personal thing for me specifically, so. I really don't feel like the best person to ask if you have any more questions. I apologize if that's too much information for such a simple question; I guess it's a bit complicated to explain.
#ask#anon#anonymous#i feel embarrassed dumping all this information here out of the blue like i know more than i should.#especially with this being the kind of thing a large number of people find weird or 'cringe'. but whatever.#like i said it's more of a personal thing to me so i don't ever post about it and probably won't in the future unless asked about it.#which i am not opposed to because AS YOU CAN SEE I really like going on and on about things.#it's taking all my restraint not to type up every single piece of irrelevant information i have on this topic right now.#please please please don't send me mean asks or anything related to discourse or whatever after this. I'm just a little guy.

What is annoying about the updated Hollow Mind portraits is that they legit think this amends the fact they didnt bring Caleb and Evelyn up in the show… like dude, I shouldnt have to read sources OUTSIDE OF THE SHOW to get story clues. And they STILL dont show us what Evelyn looks like? Even though they added new portraits? Um… okay…
#toh critical#unless you are doing some kind of movie in the future or a comic spinoff... i dont see the point of not showing us Evelyns face

one thing I dislike is the sophomoric idea that society should, naturally, move towards a completely genderless model. I get where it's coming from, but it assumes an impossible level of homogeneity rather than accepting that - in the infinity of genders that DO and WILL exist - there are some which will take familiar forms and patterns and names.
Like, look, I don't live in the androgynous future ze're imaging. But if I did I would still feel alienated and out-of-place in a slightly different way from the way I felt growing up under gendered capitalism. Because I'm not genderless, and I know damn well that I'd still feel some calling to change... something about myself. Even without words like "woman" or "witch."
It's a nice dream. it might be comforting to some. But it seems like an airy fantasy to me, and not one I can see myself living in.
Obviously I agree that the barriers between genders need to be broken down. Obviously I don't think the traditional gender roles as our society sells them to us are working. But the future I see has more kinds of people and not less.
#random musings#this came up in a zine i read the other night#i mean obviously i won't live to see the hypothetical gender-free future but#i dunno it didn't work out so well in tengoku daimakyou#just trying to keep the kids ignorant of concepts like sex and gender#i can't imagine that if humans stay essentially the same type of creature (they're extremely varied!!!) they'll be able to abandon this ide#gender is a fuck#if it's something that's imposed on you from without#but for some folks#gender is something you can't give up no matter what#not a rational or a logical thing but something deeply tied to identity in a way that can't be cleanly separated#this fantasy then simply supposes that these people are wrong and would naturally fall in line if society simply “forgot” about gender#which i do not agree with. i think new genders will still crop up even if the public is ignorant of the whole concept#even without words or images or examples to express it the idea will come back#unless humans become a very very different type of creature#but that's neither here nor there - we're still talking about human society#so what - should these folks just suffer silently in a different type of society? seems a bit counterintuitive#(personally i'm of the opinion that there are at least as many genders as there are people - but probably more)

Women. We need to stop wearing makeup. We need to stop doing excessive skincare routines. We need to stop getting cosmetic surgery.
We NEED to stop obsessing over every aspect of our appearances and we NEED to start accepting what our natural faces look like.
We need to divorce ourselves from the idea that beauty is morality. We need to stop caring about if we're ugly or not or treating it like its the end of the world.
Your face is your face!!! It looks the way it does, and you need to stop hating it. Who fucking cares if you have acne or dark circles or fine lines or wrinkles or sunspots or scars. WHO GIVES A GODDAMN SHIT. it is your face, and no matter what you do you will never get another one. You will have it for the rest of your life so you may as well learn to fucking live with it.
Learn to accept yourself the way you are. WHY should it matter if you are beautiful or ugly. YOU ARE A PERSON. YOU ARE WORTH MORE THAN YOUR AESTHETICS. We are never going to get equality for women, like, each of us being able to walk out of the fucking door without giving a single shit -- just like men do -- and be treated like human beings, if we keep desperately trying to homogenise our features into what is deemed "acceptable" and valourising beauty.
Your natural face isn't beautiful or ugly. Its your fucking face. This isnt about "embracing being ugly" its saying WHY THE FUCK SHOULD HOW I LOOK EVEN MATTER. WHY THE FUCK DOES IT NEED TO BE JUDGED. WHY ARE WE ASSIGNING WORTH TO APPEARANCES IN THE FIRST PLACE
WE ARE NEVER GETTING OUT OF PATRIARCHY IF WE KEEP FUCKING PARTICIPATING IN IT
#im going to bite through plate glass#nothing makes me more seethingly furious than being judged for my natural fucking face#WE ARE NEVER GETTING OUT OF PATRIARCHY IF WE KEEP FUCKING CARING#you dont just owe it to yourself to stop hating yourself#you owe it to every other woman on the planet. now and in the future.#do you think valourising beauty over everything else will just magically stop without anyone doing anything???#do you think the change is just going to happen? that its going to be easy?#do you think that the culture will just suddenly change without anyone actually doing anything?#that we can just DECIDE our way out of beauty culture MAGICALLY all at once?#NO. YOU HAVE TO STOP PARTICIPATING IN IT. ALL OF US HAVE TO STOP PARTICUPATING IN IT. TOGETHER#stop giving a shit if you are attractive or not. it doesnt matter! it literally doesnt matter! being beautiful doesnt make you a good person#being ugly doesnt make you a bad person. being ugly literally doesnt even fucking matter#stop hating yourself for who you are. stop hating yourself for things you cant change#stop letting the fucking internet and society and people give you a new insecurity every week#you cannot uncouple yourself from this idea that beauty is everything unless you stop investing in it#its not going to be easy! its going to be hard as fuck and you will feel worse before you feel better#you hate your natural face because you are not used to seeing it. GET USED TO SEEING IT#and then you will see how little all of this shit actually matters and how much of your time money and energy you were wasting#hating yourself for LITERALLY NO FUCKING REASON#feminism#make up#beauty culture#skincare#ageism#misogyny#patriarchy

GOD I am not emotionally intelligent enough for the situation I currently find myself in
#would you ever tell a friend that you are interested in them#like very very deeply fond of and interested in them#and have been for like four years#but they have been with the same other person that entire time#and have given no indication of being unhappy in that relationship#so you just resign yourself to making sure your friendship outlasts your crush#but then you see them for the first time in a long time and there are like. vibes.#like they emphatically and repeatedly say how much they missed you#and allude to how much they trust you and how easy you are to be around#and spend like. a lot of time in your company. like most of the week you’re in the same place#and you know that saying something could potentially sour the friendship but also you feel like maybe they deserve to have all the info to#make whatever decision#and repeatedly find yourself wondering if they even know you like men#hypothetically#what would you do#my life#oh and they’re not just together w this person. they got engaged in the spring and recently moved cross country w them#theoretically#and again continue to refer to the future of this relationship#and the idea of participating in cheating makes you physically ill which is why you didn’t even tell anyone about this crush forever#and yet. and YET. there seem to be vibes. unless you’re imagining them. hypothetically#god I feel so awful about this and yet I know it’s like. the oldest human dilemma lol#to be clear the goal of telling them would not be to convince them to cheat it’s just on like the small off chance that they would. make#different choices. if they theoretically knew their teheoretical feelings were reciprocated. but also you’re not sure that’s what the feelin#feelings they have are
