Zuko And Katara Got Into A Habit Of Calling Each Other Cringe Pet Names Out Of Spite When They're Enemies

@bernardo-draws-and-cries had a really big brain idea

Little cape gremlin

what is Herdbalist Zuko's hair like?

YES. Finally, someone asking the IMPORTANT questions!

“Well I would have brought my comb. But you kidnapped me.”

“You are just not gonna let that go, are you,” Sokka said.

“Sokka,” Katara said. “Aang did pull him into the saddle. While he was saying ‘no.’ And then we didn’t ever bring him back.”

“Because there is an evil fire-shooty admiral guy after us! ‘Us’ including him! Which I am still waiting on an explanation for, but I will at least accept a ‘thank you Team Avatar for saving me!’ ”

“Well,” Spirit said.

“Do not–”

“I would have brought my gratitude–”

“–finish that.”

“But you kidnapped me.”

He didn’t even say it accusingly. He said it while scratching the sweet spot at the base of a lemur’s tail, smiling with airy indifference, as Katara sat behind him combing out the bison-flight tangles from his ridiculously luxuriant waves of hair.

“Did you leave your dignity behind, too?” Sokka accused. “What kind of man has hair down to his butt–”

“Longer than that,” Katara reports, running her comb through just a section of that hair because they would probably both have to be standing for her to get a full swipe in.

“–and lets another man’s little sister play hair stylist? Do you not know the danger of surrendering hair control to a little sister?”

“I can think of worse things a little sister could do.” Their demure firebender kidnappee continued to smile. Sokka would have really appreciated if he’d been a surly firebending prisoner instead.

“I’m going to give you hair loops,” Katara said. “Beads or no beads?”

“No beads!” Sokka snapped.

“Just do the opposite of whatever your brother says.”

“Beads!”

“I’m so glad you agree,” his little sister said, sickly-sweet, her smile matching the firebender’s smirk.

It was stupid how good his hair looked when Katara was done. All… loopy, and beady. And every day on the flight north it got more and more complicated because there wasn’t much to do on the back of a bison, until there were tiny braidy loops and swirls intertwining everywhere and a loopy-beady high bun, and still so much hair left to cascade down his back, and it didn’t even get sufficiently ruined when the Northern waterbenders attacked even though Sokka’s hair looked like a hare-possum had died in it.

And one of their warriors offered the guy a hand down from Appa when they got to the city. What was with that?

“She’s pretty,” said warrior sighed, as all that hair went swishing after Aang and Katara.

Sokka squawked.

“Sorry,” the guy said. “Your sister?”

Additional squawking ensued.

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

ZUKO LOOKS MORE LIKE URSA, NOT LIKE OZAI

I mean look at him. This is from fever dream (where he dreams he is the fire lord and doesn't have the scar). He is clearly older in this dream. He looks like the male version of Ursa.

Of course there are a few differences. But they're mostly due to the gender difference. Ursa has kinda softer features.

And apart from this, when he grew old, Zuko looked very much like Avatar Roku whom happens to be his mother's grandfather.

Fandom likes to act like Zuko has Ozai's looks since they like to think there are symbolisms of it. But let's be honest, does this sweet child look anything like Ozai at all?

A:TLA comm for @dottie-wan-kenobi ✨

azula's just trying to get them to eat something that isn't noodles and this is the thanks she gets // college husbands au

 the southern water tribe ambassador AU that we all love and adore so much.

(a little zutara for you guys just because i felt like it ♥)

I read a HC that there were gaang + mai + ty lee dolls and action figures after the war. Cause they were famous, and heroes.

Now I CA t stop thinking about Mai despising doll-Mai, and Zuko absolutely loving it. Cause, you know, it’s Mai! He can’t not love mai!

HC accepted

Once Ellie learns what a sleepover is, she regularly bullies Tommy into having them with her (he goes willingly but he makes her work for it nevertheless).

He's not only the cool Uncle tm but also the person she can talk to about stuff she doesn't always want to talk to Joel about, either because it would make him worry a lot or because it would be an incredibly awkward conversation she has no intention of having with him. Tommy knows how to keep a secret and he would never betray Ellie's trust.

They maneuver mattresses onto the living room floor and eat enough sugar to kill a small toddler. Most of the time, their nights consist of Ellie doing weird shit to his hair and painful face masks that she discovers in old magazines, watching movies Joel either deeply dislikes or doesn't want her to watch (trying to protect the last of her innocence, sweet attempt but futile, since nothing of that is left anyway), and gossiping; Tommy is GREAT at gossip.

Joel is a bit jealous that he isn't invited, but when he comes to pick her up in the mornings and sees her curled up with Tommy the exact same way he and Sarah would when he made his brother babysit, the bittersweet surge of affection is worth the comparably lonely night in his bed.

Ellie deserves every bit of family she can get.

some Ty Lukos for the soul
