Another fic idea Yukka/Kataang

This could be done either in modern AU or the regular universe.

We know Yue was already engaged to Hahn when the trio makes it to the NWT. Her engagement to Hahn could have been set up because he came from a noble family. The only way to break it is if someone from a family of higher nobility or power asked for Yue’s hand in marriage. Money and power talks after all.

Sokka, while he may be the SWT chief’s son, doesn’t exactly come from money. He wouldn’t be able to break the engagement between Hahn and Yue but he knows someone who does.

Enter Aang. While he’s not rich, Aang is the avatar and the last air bender. I like to think Arnook would be open to having the most powerful bender in the world as his son-in-law. Yeah he’s 12 and Yue is like 16 years old but they could convince the Arnook to hold off on the wedding until Aang was 18 or older. Aang would be hesitant from the idea but Sokka could convince him and Yue to go along with the ruse until the time was right.

Katara would be out of the loop because Sokka believes the less people that know the better.

The plan works. Yue and Hahn’s engagement is broken off and an announcement is made in the NWT that Aang and Yue are officially engaged. Katara is thrown off guard by when she hears about. Thus creating tension between her and Aang. Get some love triangle or rectangle drama going.

Might sit down one day and write this.

ataraxia

ataraxia, noun. an untroubled and tranquil condition of the soul.

He can only touch her in his dreams.

(Written for Day 4 of Aang Rarepair Week: Touch, hosted by @aangtheestallion. Pairing: Yue/Aang. Read here on AO3, or continue reading below.)

He can only touch her in his dreams.

Well, not only, but it is the least difficult means for them to reunite. Dreams are funny like that, though Aang has never been one to complain about the unique ease of access. Neither has Yue. “Always bound by duty,” she says in jest, and they both know she isn’t joking.

“Your dreams always have us out here at night,” Yue notes with amusement as Aang braids her hair. They sit together on a beach, the cool tide lapping at their toes as white stars twinkle in the dark sky above. “Do you like being able to see the moon at the same time as me?”

Aang pauses at her comments. He’s never thought about their setting before, how they are so often reunited at the witching hour. Perhaps it was a coincidence? Or simply a matter of logic, where nighttime in the real world translates to nighttime within his mind?

One glance at Yue reveals the true answer to her query.

“Because the moonlight makes you glow,” Aang says, honesty ringing without shame in his tone. He continues weaving her hair into a simple braid.

Yue chuckles. “Of course. You desire to see me at what you deem my most beautiful. How superficial of you, Avatar Aang.”

It’s Aang’s turn to laugh. “Princess, you know I don’t mean it like that.”

Yue hums, a mischievous smile tugging at her lips. “Then tell me—how do you mean it?”

Aang pulls the last of Yue’s vibrant locks into the braid, tying it off with a pale blue ribbon he didn’t know he had before nudging it to rest over her right shoulder. He moves so he is sitting directly next to her. After a pause, a quiet exhale escapes his lips. “I like getting to see you.” Aang slips a hand into hers. “Every side of you.” Then he shoots Yue a wink. “And as I said—the silver glow is a good look.”

Aang is familiar with all kinds of spirits, each one awe-inspiring and powerful in their own way, but none ever make him so speechless as when he sees Princess Yue bathed with such an ethereal light.

Yue smiles at him, squeezing his hand. When Aang meets her sharp blue eyes—a shade darker than the ribbon in her hair—they are tender, but there is an ancient wisdom behind them that reminds Aang he is never speaking solely to the Princess of the Northern Water Tribe. Although, he supposes the same can be said for himself.

“You Avatars,” Yue muses affectionately. “Always treading the line between the mortal world and the spirit realm. One would think you’d learn from your mistakes.”

Oh, Aang has learned. His body burns with Yangchen’s regret, aches with Kuruk’s grief. He knows their mistakes well. But he’d choose Yue a thousand times over.

Maybe that’s the mortal in him.

“It’s my job to tread that line. Besides.” Aang shifts his hand in hers, lacing their fingers together. “You’d miss me if I stopped visiting.”

Yue rests her head on his shoulder. “I would,” she acknowledges. There is no hesitation. “I’ve been around a long time, Aang. I’ve seen a lot of things.” A smile tugs at her lips. “Known a lot of Avatars, too.” She hums. “And yet you alone manage to surprise me.”

Aang chuckles. “Well. I’m just catering to the human in you.” It’s not the full truth, and they both know it. But neither says more. That would be the spirit in them, Aang realizes, and he almost laughs. Instead, he presses a kiss to the crown of Yue’s head, and she gives his hand another gentle squeeze. They sit in silence, where the soft cresting of the ocean is the only sound that falls upon their ears.

Though Aang knows it is only a dream, he feels the presence of La beside—within?—him. Perhaps he knows because of how the sea rushes up to thread between his toes before it retreats. Perhaps he knows because La never truly left him all those years ago, when he channelled the might and the mourning of the ocean to overpower the Fire Nation’s navy. Perhaps there is another reason entirely, a reason no mortal is privy to. Even the Avatar.

But all the same, La is there. Aang knows this. Tui knows, too, if the way Yue smiles with such easy contentment is indication of anything.

“I hate leaving you,” Aang whispers. Time passes differently in dreams. Soon he will have to wake, no matter how much he wants to stay.

“You know you never really leave me,” Yue says, amused. She raises her head, eyes twinkling with starry mirth. “And I wouldn’t let you even if you tried.”

Push and pull. The endless dance Aang shares with the princess. And though he treasures every step, it is the parts where he must pull away that make his chest ache with the weight of a thousand moons. He wants to be selfish, knows Yu wants to be selfish, too, but selfishness is in neither their nature nor their duties.

Sacrifice. That is what they are most, no, what they are too familiar with. So Aang clings to these dreams with both hands, clutches at these moments with his princess that are a step out of time.

“Let me rephrase.” Aang lifts his other hand to cup Yue’s cheek, tracing the edge of her lips with his thumb. “I hate not being able to touch you.” Here, in his dreams, the moon and the Princess of the Northern Water Tribe both glow, separate yet intertwined. In the mortal realm, their bond is far more literal, and Aang can only feel her within his beating heart. But to feel… to feel has never been the same as to touch.

Yue stares at him, into him, through him. She nods, slowly. “I understand.” Her lips brush against his thumb as she speaks and spirits, Aang wants this moment to last forever. But he knows, sees, feels. The glow is weakening, the stars are dimming, her touch is fading—

Aang closes his eyes, leans in to press his lips against hers. When he opens them again, the sky is blue, the stars are gone, and he is alone. Well, alone with the exception of Appa snoring behind him. The steady hum of his sky bison makes Aang smile.

He can still see the crescent moon tucked away behind the trees, though. Aang always sees her. Always looks for her. It’s a habit that can’t be helped.

Aang sighs, slowly getting to his feet. His hands are warm. Warm, but empty.

Yue’s touch never lingers.

The guy Yue had been following startled and spun on his heel. With one glance, he took in her employee t-shirt and stern expression and knew he was caught.

The guy settled into his hip, cocked his chin. “Oh hey! I didn’t see you there. I was just looking for the bathroom.”

Yue + Aang

I ship these two as more platonic than anything. I actually find them a little too similar? But there are some nice Aang pining after the moon fics out there that are very sad and sweet.

ATLA Ship Tier List

This took forever and I’m like 2 months late. @avatraang tagged me forever ago (thank you)

This was torture for me because my brain categorizes ships based on platonic chemistry vs romantic chemistry, how well it works in canon, fanfiction dynamics, fanart dynamics, and general vibe/aesthetic. I somehow managed to compress all that down and squeeze all these ships into 5 basic categories.

With that said:

Red Tier/OTP: Kataang, Maiko, Tokka, Zukaang, Sokkaang, Mailee. I consume the most amount of content for these ships and the characters in these ships. I love everything about them. They are my obsession.

Orange Tier/Cute: Maiaang, Katoph, Maitara, Maizula, Sukitara, Maitoph, Yueaang, Jetaang, Yuetara, Yuekka, Tyzula. I still like these a lot, just not as much as the ones in the OTP list. If I haven’t read anything for the ships listed here, it’s because they intrigue me and I like something about their dynamic but I have yet to explore more about the ship.

Green Tier/Like It: Jetlee, Jetzula, Yuejet, Jetko, Sukaang, Azulaang, Maiki, Tophzula, Sukka, Zukka, Tylaang, Taang. This tier is a bit of a mixed bag. I like the idea of some of these and just haven’t read enough for them, or they’re kind of meh.

Blue Tier/It Exists: Maikka, Tylara, Azutara, Toko, Toki, Yueki, Tysuki, Azuki, Yuetoph, Jetkka, Yai, Yueko, Tyzuko, Jai, Tyue, Tophlee, Jetki, Yuezula, Jetoph. A lot of these I just don’t think would work or I have no opinion on them.

Black Tier/No. Absolutely Not: Zuki, Zutara. Don’t know what else to say except these grate on my nerves. I will never like them.

With the way I categorize ships in my head a lot of these are generalizations. If you want a more in-depth opinion on any specific ship feel free to send me an ask! :)

Aang Rarepair Week 2022: Rules, Prompts, and FAQ

Thank you everyone for your prompt suggestions! The prompts have been chosen for Aang Rarepair Week 2022, which will run April 18 - April 22. Every day will have two prompts for you to choose from.

This post is intended to serve as a masterpost for the entire event. It will include the dates, prompts, rules, a FAQ, and some helpful resources! Make sure to click the readmore to get ALL the information!

Prompt List

Rules

Based on AO3 stats and general popularity, this event is for Aang ships that do not include Katara, Zuko, or Toph. There is absolutely nothing wrong with these ships, but this week is about rarepairs! These other characters can be present in the work, just not as Aang's only partner. Poly ships are welcome as well, and in that case you include one of those three in the ship. So for example, Aang/Azula/Katara would be allowed, but Aang/Zuko/Katara is not. If you have any questions about what ships are allowed, feel free to message us.

The focus of the content should be on the Aang rarepair. Other ships are allowed, as long as the Aang ship is front and center!

NSFW/Mature content is allowed, as long as you tag everything appropriately. So on tumblr, that means following their guidelines for NSFW images. On AO3, that means giving your fic the appropriate rating and tags.

Any kind of creative content is allowed! Fanfiction, fanart, edits, playlists, headcanons, moodboards, ANYTHING!

(click under the readmore for FAQ and resources)

FAQ

How do I participate in Aang Rarepair Week?

Create your content and post it on tumblr. If you post on AO3, make sure to share the link on tumblr. Tag this blog in the main body of your post (@aangtheestallion). In the tags, tag “aangtheestallion,” "aang rarepair week," and/or “ARW2022.” If we don’t reblog your post within 24 hours, feel free to send us a message with the link! I’m sure we all know how unreliable the tumblr tagging system is, we would never intentionally not reblog someone’s post!

If I’m not a creator, how can I support Aang Rarepair Week?

The best way to support content creators leading up to and during Aang Rarepair Week is to let them know you support them! Reblog and comment on their work, send rarepair content into this blog for us to post, etc. We’ll be reblogging Aang rarepair content from now up until the week itself. Supporting that work now will encourage creators for the event week itself.

Who is in charge of Aang Rarepair Week?

This blog and the event are being run by @praetorqueenreyna and @avatraang.

What's going on with those Trope Prompts?

I have a question that isn’t here!

The "Classic Tropes" prompt on Day 2 means that you can pick any classic fanfic trope to center your content around. Check out some options for ideas here and here. The "Reverse Tropes" prompt on Day 4 is exactly what it sounds like: a reversal of the tropes we're used to. Examples are here and here.

Feel free to send us asks, we’d love to hear from you all! They can be questions, headcanons, ideas, or anything else! If you have a question you’d like us to answer privately, be sure to let us know in the ask. Otherwise, all other asks will be published on our blog.

Helpful resources

Here is a random ship generator that will match an Aang rarepair with one of the prompts. This is not a comprehensive list of the ships allowed, it's a jumping off point.

Classic Tropes resources: Examples here and here. I have also found two trope randomizers online (here and here) that will pick out tropes for you.

Reverse Tropes resources: Examples here and here. You can use the trope randomizers here as well, just pick the opposite of what you get!

day ii of @aangtheestallion’s aang rarepair week. today’s prompt is last kiss, and my couple of choice is yue x aang. i present to you a concept: a love known only through meditation and dreams, through the sea during a full moon, through the strange, warm breeze that visits the spirit world as aang crosses over. a love that always ends in good morning, that leaves both members wishing they didn’t have to go, that finds them tearing apart infinity for a moment of stolen air. i present to you the moon spirit and her bridge. he gladly lets her walk on him.

happy ffwf! what is the easiest fic you’ve written? in other words, what is the fic that has come the most naturally to you? why do you think it was so easy to write? make sure to link it! feel free to share as much or as little as you’d like 💛 (—@avatraang.)

Happy ffwf! This is late, but I am not sorry lol

This is a huge ask because writing fic has never felt easy or natural to me. I always overthink everything and spend at least 50% of my time beating myself up about it.

But I have one fic that was easy to write simply because it was low stakes. A Yueaang modern au for ARW called something beautiful. Modern aus are easy to me because they exist for no reason other than to vibe, a lil taste of fluff when you need something brainless or a pick-me-up. As a result, this was quite easy to write.

All my other fics kind of destroyed me, and I can't say any of them came naturally to me. I haven't found that character or dynamic I can really get into yet. Maybe one day!

Thanks for the ask!
