its so funny how katara stays being the only person zuko doesn't yell at when they're rightfully mad at him.
zuko with everyone: 🤬😤😡🙄
zuko with katara: im sorry 🥺 thats something we have in common 😔 what can i do to make it up to you queen i waited outside your tent all night 😕
This is Zuko's first sword fighting lesson, change my mind!
Aka tiny "let me be good at something Azula isn't" Zuzu making his Mom proud and driving Master Piandao crazy.
have i ever mentioned how genuinely happy i am that zuko ended up with a daughter. he'd be a great dad even if he had a son but theres no character in atla with stronger girl dad vibes. he just needed a daughter
First Jetkotara fanart ever and I'm really proud of it 💕
[ID: Looking at the image from left to right: Jet, Zuko and Katara are on a couch relaxing together. Zuko and Jet are sitting close, looking at a copy of Love Amongst the Dragons that Zuko is reading aloud. Katara is lying down looking up at Zuko, with her head on his legs. All of them are wearing a pair of dark trousers in different shades (burgundy, dark brown, dark purple) and a shirt. Katara and Zuko have long untied hair. Jet has his left arm around Zuko's shoulder, his hand on top of Katara's, that is holding Zuko's hand. End ID]
So how does everyone react to the lovey dovey ness that lasted awhile?
cuties being cuties!
also, 30 degrees c is hot, it’s 86 degrees Fahrenheit.
soon after… it get’s dark.
frequent zukka trope I love to see lol
Okay so like, after reading too many zuko adoption au’s, I may have (kind of but not really) made up my own 👉👈
I figured if we throw Zuko on literally anyone(they even gave the poor child to Hama once 😭😭), nothings stopping me from tossing him in that spirit library and calling it adoption. So in a 3am crisis I created the Library!Zuko au, where he gets adopted by the knowledge seeker foxes after bitch Ozai tries to kill him by dumping him in the desert and Wan Shi Tong just has to deal with it cause I said so. Naturally because I cant write I drew it instead
Theres more, but turns out im shy oops-
NIA OH MY FUCKING GOD IM IN LOVE WITH THIS ACTUALLY IN LOVE WITH THIS THAT BOTTOM ONE WITH HIM PETTING IT AND HIS LIL SMILE HOW HAVE YOU SUCKERPUNCHED ME WITH JUST SKETCHES???? AND THE THOUGHT OF WAN SHI TONG HATING HUMANS AND BEING REALLY BITTER INITIALLY BUT THEN SEEING HOW ZUKO JUST CRAVES KNOWLEDGE AND WANTS TO LEARN MORE THINGS DESPITE HIS FOREFATHERS INSISTING THAT THE FIRE NATION WAY WAS THE ONLY WAY, AND YET HERE IS THIS BURNT BOY WHO WANTS TO LEARN SWORDSMANSHIP AND PATIENCE AND WHO IS GENTLE AND HE’S KIND TO THE FOXES AND I- GSIUHIUSHG NIA WHAT THE FUCK
Okay I’ve seen aus with Jet going to the Boiling Rock after Ba Sing Se and aus where Zuko fights Azula and gets sent to the Boiling Rock, but, consider, both
They both get arrested and Zuko has to explain to Jet that yes, he’s a firebender, and yes he’s the prince of the fire nation, and yes he hunted the avatar across the whole world, but he’s totally good now and Jet has to process that he tried to recruit the literal fire prince into his gang
Zuko gets thrown into the cooler very regularly, almost as much as Jet gets put in solitary, because they rarely last more than ten minutes in the same room before Jet tries to start a brawl. After a while he’s not even angry, it’s just kinda boring in prison and Zuko fights good
Suki recognises Zuko immediately, but after she hears why he’s in prison and watches Jet almost throw him off a ledge several times, she decides to forgive him
Thus starts the weirdest friendship trio ever
They actually work really well together, because Suki supplies the group brain cell, Jet gives them terrible ideas, and Zuko carries them out
The other prisoners and some of the guards quickly recognise that the three most dangerous inmates are teenagers, and now that they’re working together, all they can do is pray. They all end up teaching each other fighting forms they know, and Suki discovers Zuko is a total avatar nerd and thinks Kyoshi was the best avatar since Wan (she approves of his assessment)
Suki plays the ‘you burned down my village’ card exactly once. Jet uses ‘you burned down Suki’s village’ almost daily to get Zuko to do things
Sokka arrives looking for his dad and spots Suki in the yard distracting a guard while Jet keeps watch and Zuko steals his keys. He thinks they’re actually planning a break out, but no, Jet just wanted to fuck with the guards and see if Zuko could melt metal
(They’ve tried escaping, but Suki usually stops them because Jet suggests tying all their blankets together, stealing a messenger hawk and training it to tie the rope to a rock across the boiling lake and climbing across that. Zuko, who has never had a plan beyond ‘break into the maximum security stronghold and go from there’, is 100% on board)
When Hakoda arrives and the other inmates warn him not to piss off the three teenage prisoners, he thinks they’re joking. They’re not. He reevaluates when he sees Jet start a riot in less than ten seconds, Suki kidnap the warden, and Zuko break the gondola lever and jump across a boiling lake
Sokka comes back from his fishing trip with four missing people and no fish
Bonus: Suki: “this is my boyfriend Sokka and his boyfriend Zuko and his boyfriend Jet”
[Context is Aang's death from being struck by Azula's lightning]
Roku: He's not waking up, it's not working!
Kuruk: Yangchen, get over here!
Yangchen: I can't!
Kuruk: FOR AANG!
[Kuruk pushes Yangchen forward. She's holding a fruit pie, which she offers to Aang].
Yangchen: ...Oh, look, I have what appears to be... a delicious fruit pie! I sincerely hoped... nothing happens to... [her voice breaks and she drops the pie] OH AANG! [starts crying]
Kuruk: ... ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL HIM FASTER?
[Yangchen runs to hug Kuruk so tightly he can't breathe].
Kuruk: Yangchen!
[Kyoshi pushes both of them out of the way and walks towards an unconscious Aang. She grabs him by the robes and pulls him up off the floor, then frantically begins shaking him to wake him up].
Roku, Yangchen, Kuruk: KYOSHI!
Yangchen: WAIT A MINUTE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
Roku: KYOSHI, STOP!
[All of them manage to stop Kyoshi by grabbing her arms and legs. She puts Aang back down slowly].
Kyoshi: I thought... violence... would be the answer.
