Korra looks like Katara who looks like her mother

Katara's daughter Kya also looks like Katara who looks like her mother

Surely that must've been weird for her having to witness in third person exactly what she looked like as a dumb fool in her 20s (minus all the word ending/saving avatar shenanigans)

They robbed us of adult Toph in a full suit of 'knight in shining armour' metal btw

Fire Nation hair thoughts

Notice how in the movie, when they're expecting a fight of some sort, Zuko keeps his hair up and safe in a bun.

Do you think he was scared of losing it again? Sacred of an enemy blade shearing him of an honour he's been painstakingly regrowing each year, no matter how much he questions if he even deserves it?

But then I thought on how open hair isn't really something we see outside of fire nation royalty, and Zuko does not wear his phoenix pin when he buns it so maybe it's an act of humility, or a way to take a respite from the burden of the crown.

But then I thought on how the Ursa and Iroh in part keep their hair mostly down because they nearly never have any intention to fight.

And I thought of how the only time I can think of fire willingly fighting with their hair completely loose is Ozai

Ozai whose so self assured in his own honour that he can't fathom fearing losing it.

And then I thought that maybe Zuko keeping his hair up felt so odd because I was used to a Fire Lord who flaunted honour, rather than valuing it.

Can we talk about how the progression of costuming in the atla movie was just a blatant strip tease? Not in like a cancel way but more like damn they really did that

Sidenote; Toph still should've been given her full rock body armour instead of that "female fantasy armour that covers absolutely nothing" deal

Alternate movie where as every other character progressively loses their clothes Toph becomes Mecha Rock Toph

I just cannot get over Zuko's hair. It is begging to have fingers running through it. Sure Katara has nice hair, too. And Toph has no reason to take much stock in her hair. But those long, luxuriant, near-black tresses. Yum. Yes I understand that hair is very important to fire nation culture and if anyone was going to have the best hair around it stands to reason the leader of this nation would. But even being possibly/maybe (I really was only half paying attention to what was happening this first watch) brought back from the dead it is still amazing.

Also the fact he was trying to keep it up in a bun whenever there was a risk of a dicey situation, he was living in fear of it accidentally getting cut mid duel

Silksong act 3 spoilerssss

Imagine how surreal it must have been for Grandmother Silk to be plummeted down into the void, surviving only on mother's adrenaline and then her murderer arrives and she's powerless to do anything except watch and scream as this pale rival attacks her child.

Did she think Hornet would kill Lace? For surely this daughter had proven herself more pale than weaver and would gladly slay an obstacle to her taking Pharloom as her own.

Because that's the nature of pale beings: to dominate. Grandmother Silk must know that because she embodied it yet what if as she watches Hornet attack she sees the void be battered off Lace until finally her only loved child falls-

And instead of slay Lace, Hornet cradles her, and Grandmother Silk realises this daughter has taken after her Grandmother for her urge to dominate has been bested by her urge to mother?

On seeing Hornet in the void, was it relief she felt, rather than dread?

Star Trek has always had phenomenal makeup but my word, look at the detail here. The seam, the little wires barely visible, the glint of metal, the fact that Brent's actual skin looks like it's the fake part, it's just insane. And not even a drop of CGI used.

Grace sends this off as a "fuck you" to Stratt and unintentionally eases 40+ years of horrific guilt.

(40+ factoring in the Hail Mary mission, then the time it would take to get back to Erid and the time it would take for the message to get to Earth. Probably closer to 50+ actually).

(I do think Stratt felt bad. She did a lot of terrible things to save the planet, and obviously felt guilt for sending Grace off. I imagine the time waiting to hear back from the Hail Mary was torture for everyone, but she essentially sent three people off to their deaths, one unwillingly. Hearing that Grace made it out alive would be a huge weight off her shoulders.)

One of my favorite Avatar: The Last Airbender episodes is “The Blue Spirit,” and it’s because of the final moments. It begins with that quiet exchange between Aang and Zuko after Aang discovers the Blue Spirit but still chooses to save him. Aang tells Zuko about his old friend Kuzon, from a time when the divisions between the nations didn’t exist. It’s essentially Aang offering an olive branch, asking if they could have been friends. Zuko doesn’t respond with words, but with firebending, and Aang retreats.

We then cut to Zuko lying in bed while the Fire Nation flag looms over him.

The flag feels imposing, almost inescapable. This is the force shaping him. His anger, his sense of duty, and his inability to accept Aang’s offer all trace back to this.

What makes the moment land is the contrast. We move from a quiet, human interaction to a stark image of ideology and power. It’s the show reminding us that Zuko’s struggle isn’t just internal —  it’s inherited. He’s not just fighting Aang; he’s carrying the weight of a nation’s expectations.

It becomes a visual reminder that even in moments of vulnerability, the world these characters come from is always pressing in on them.

Zuko's love language is physical touch

Saw a post about Stratt and Grace getting married so he couldn’t testify against her in court and I believe the interaction goes something like as follows:

“Grace, I need your signature.”

Grace looked up from his work in his closet of an office. Stratt closed the door behind her.

“An autograph? I’m flattered.”

She pushed the work off his already disheveled desk and set a single paper on top. It kind of looked like his degree, it kind of looked like-

“A marriage license? Well, now I’m really flattered.”

“For legal reasons. Just sign.” Stratt muttered.

“Are you serious?”

Of course she was serious. She only was serious. But she seemed…uncomfortable? The feeling looked strange on her. Eyes dart between the paper and him. Arms crossed over her chest as if hugging herself. It was definitely a new look. They were in new territory.

“I’m not the marrying type.” said Grace. “And I think I forgot to propose.”

Stratt breathed in deeply. Steeling herself.

“Grace,” Her hands were fidgeting with the cuff of her sleeve. “What I’m doing here is illegal. I’ve broken alot of rules to give the crew a chance to save us. But once the mission begins…the world order will need to go back to how it was.”

Grace listened intently trying to make eye contact with her glassy gaze. He hadn’t thought to much about the legality of it all. After all, that was her job.

“I will be put on trial. I will be found guilty. I will serve the rest of my life behind bars. That is my cost.” Stratt continued, “You, the team, will all be fine. But-”

She pushed the license closer to Grace.

“Spouses don’t testify in court.”

Finally she looked at him. She wasn’t telling him to sign. If that was the case she probably would’ve just forged his signature. Hell, she probably has a whole team just for that purpose. She was asking him.

His choice. Just between the two of them.

“We don’t have to sleep together, right?”

Her eyes went big. “God Grace! No! Just sign the damn paper!” she huffed.

He smiled. And put his name under hers.

Husband and wife.

Well, more like “Most powerful person in the world” and “Some guy she kept around.” But still. Till death do they part.
