Luz: Come on, do it!

Hunter: No. It's stupid. I'm not doing it

Luz: It'll be so funny!

Hunter: [arms crossed] Absolutely not

[Later]

Luz: [videoing everything on her phone]

Hunter: [in a monotone voice] Trust fall!

Darius: I'm not going to catch you

Hunter: [dramatically sighing] I'm gonna fall

Darius: [glaring] Don't

Hunter: [in a completely monotone voice while falling backwards] Oh, no. I'm falling

Darius: [jumping over two tables and catching Hunter with seconds to spare] Why in Titan's name would you do that?!

Hunter: [voice crack form embarrassment] Why wouldn't you just use an abomination?!

Luz: [under her breath while still videoing] Dadrius confirmed

I may just be your parent.

Being surrounded by 'none biological family but might as well be' trope has me in choke hold, and honestly ima enjoy myself. Dialogue and prompt mix!

Card!

Angst:

Cradling the crying child that is not theirs in their arms after being either invalidated or abused by their actual parent/s, wiping away at their tears, and whispering gentle promises in their ear.

Fighting for the custody/adoption of a said child from incapable parents.

"WE MAY NOT BE RELATED BY BLOOD! BUT THEY ARE MINE, lay a single finder on them I will personally drag your ass to hell!"

"Where were you when the kids needed you? and NOW you want to be present?"

"No baby, I swear to you, they will not lay a single hand on you ok? go up to your room, we'll just talk, it'll be quick ok? pick the book you wanna read"

Rocking the kid back and forth after having a panic attack, both doing the breathing exercise they found online when they first witnessed their kid have their first panic attack.

Fighting and legalizing for the kid's custody or adoption because their parents aren't fit for the parental role.

"I fought for you, you're not getting rid of me that easily whether you hate me or not because I love you no matter how ugly things get"

Breaking down after arguing with the kid and hearing them scream how much they hate them and wish they were anywhere but near them.

Fighting and pushing for their kid's justice when the authorities turned a blind eye.

Serving their kid's justice themselves no matter how bloody and ugly it gets.

"Oh sweety, we didn't sacrifice everything just to build you up for someone to just bring you down. come on. I'll make sure they regret every tear that you cried"

"You don't deserve this wonderful kid! you don't see the mess you're putting them in!" "And you think you're deserving eno-" "AT LEAST I'M BETTER THAN YOU'LL EVER BE!"

"Tell me, how come they don't ever call? they're so ungrateful, after all I've done for them?" "Maybe a self-check would humble you, at least before I do"

Fluff:

Sunday routines of ice creams and park visits!

Fun sleepovers because they can stay past their bedtime with stories of their parent's earlier years.

Being accidentally called mom/dad while in the moment.

School visits and pickups when their actual parents can't! And they can get food on the way!

Being the kid's scapegoat when the kids sneak out of the house doing kids' stuff and they totally got the kid's back

"oh come on! Let the kids live a little! Not like you weren't their age once! You were far worst! Don't deny it!

Taking the kids shopping to spite their killjoy parents.

Wearing the kids creation with pride, clothes, jewelry or anything the kids gave them and countless pictures.

Parading around the streets with matching kids fashion, large sunglasses, tutus, skirts, bangles and dangly necklaces, and matching tiaras and fairy wings.

Running errands with or for the kids when they need anything.

"Oh come on kiddo, cheer up, you know you're mom can be a bit too much, I can assure you she means well"

They're practically on speed dial on every occasion there is.

Doing mani pedies with the closeted child and creating their safe environment for them and being their comfort if their parents show homophobia.

Chaos:

"NO! drop it! Don't put it in your mouth!!!"

"Where did you get that?! didn't I tell you not to snoop around where you shouldn't be snooping at?" "But come on! it's so cool! it's a self-destructive rocket ship! it's vibrating and all!"

Playing in the playground with the kids, screw being a grown-up, and sitting on the bench, if they can fit and slide in the kiddie slide they will join the kids.

Bumping every kid on-site in bump car rides, they are surrounding the kids and targeting any suspected enemy.

Dressing up as chickens taunting the kids' bullies' parents after having a meeting about it and the bullies' parents get away scot-free, they came dressing up as chickens and clucking out of the bullies' house before throwing hands.

"Geez! when I told you to hurry up I didn't want to slingshot yourself out the door." "It's effective though!" "KID YOU HAAVE A BROKEN NOSE!"

"I swear you are the reason I don't want kids!" "You love me though right?"

Picking the kids up in the middle of the day when they're requesting a pickup after cutting classes.

Playing tea parties with the kids with actual food and experiment/concoctions the kids made and they would eat that shit like it's bussin bussin.

Using their kids as partner magnets on play dates but utterly fails when said kids either pull them away or cause some type of chaos to get them home.

Egging bully houses and TPing their yards.

Camping out in the woods to try to live both of your fantasies of being fairies and or witches in the woods only to be attacked by mosquitos, bugs and no proper bathrooms

trans dudes and their useless cis boyfriends

Oh no Hunter so baby boy 😭😭😭

Au where the Gaang were looking for a firebending teacher, just found Zuko on the side of the road and picked him up by the scruff of his neck and was like "you". No one figures out he's the Prince of the Fire Nation until Sozins Comet.

Aang comes back, having defeated firelord Ozai, and then finds out that his wet rat of a firebending teacher is actually royalty and is being crowned Firelord tomorrow. He is so confused.

okay so GENUINELY I was just supposed to make this mini taob comic for @hella1975 but my brain was like "no that's not enough. It's not even shaded. provide more" soo uh yeah there are a lot more doodles added to this than I intended lmao

New Zutara fanfic trope: Zuko is so worried about how deeply Katara sleeps that he starts constantly preparing for the worst.

- He stays up/wakes up a lot in the night to check on her and/or their surroundings.

- If there's Only One Bed? Zuko insists he'll sleep on the floor between her and the door. Katara thinks he's offering her privacy but in reality Zuko is just terrified that Katara will sleep through an ambush/robbery and he needs to be ready to defend her 🤣

- Katara is staying/going somewhere alone overnight? Zuko panics and insists on providing her a guard. (Bonus points if the guard falls asleep too and Zuko loses his shit at the guard, and then guards her himself 🤣)

- Zuko (trying to be) super quiet - maybe something has made him upset and he is crying softly to himself. Katara wakes up from the other side of the room and asks him what's wrong. Zuko is torn between feeling touched and feeling flabbergasted - "What do you mean you heard me?? Where was this "hearing" of yours when Azula exploded the temple you were sleeping in!??!?!"

Bla bla bla, you get the gist. Go on grab some tropes don't be shy, it's free real estate let's gooo

Fic Snippet!

“Are you out of your mind?” Zuko rushed across the courtyard and bore down on Aang with an intense, almost palpable fury. “Do you know how badly you could’ve hurt her?”

“I was just…I didn’t mean to-“ Aang stammered.

“Fire is not a toy!” Zuko bellowed at him. He turned to Katara, examining her for injuries. “Are you okay?”

“I’m alright,” she assured him, her voice shaking. “I’m fine.” She was trembling visibly, and there were singe marks on her clothes, but she otherwise seemed unharmed. Zuko turned back to Aang, how was looking down at his feet in shame.

“What were you thinking?” Zuko demanded.

“I don’t know,” Aang mumbled, kicking at the ground. “I was…mad.”

“About what?” Zuko was absolutely bewildered. “What could Katara possibly have done that you thought it was a good idea to do that?”

“Nothing,” Aang admitted sullenly. He didn’t say anything after that. Zuko glowered at him, took a few deep breaths to quell his own anger.

“You’re going to clean this mess up,” he said gesturing to the torn up stones, dirt and cooling lava. “Then you’re going to do 100 fire squats. Then you’re going to work on your forms for an hour. And I don’t want to see so much as a curl of smoke out of you. You’re not responsible enough for fire. Understood?” 

“What? That’s not-“ Aang’s protests died on his lips when he saw Zuko’s expression.  He huffed, kicked at stone, and finally nodded.

“Get started,” Zuko ordered through clenched teeth. He turned back to Katara, who was watching the exchange. She was still shaking a bit. Zuko draped his arm protectively around her back and guided her away. He glanced back once more at Aang, and almost rolled his eyes when he saw the younger boy still moping at the ground. It was hard sometimes to reconcile the awesome might and eminence of the Avatar with the reality of Aang, the child.

“I’ll be back,” he warned Aang. “Have this mess cleaned up. And don’t even think about asking Toph to help.” 

I know canonically, the Lava Fissure Incident takes place while Zuko and Sokka are rescuing Hakoda, but I wanted to have Zuko see and react to it. Personally, I think it was another accidentally accurate depiction of how unready Aang is to be the Avatar. And it is also another incident that the narrative decides not to call Aang out for, so the chances of him growing from it are...well, we all know how things turned out in LoK.

[Kindergarten AU]
