woman character: you don't get it... I am a monster.

guy character: why do you say that? what... what have you done?

me, desperately: please say you killed or tortured someone. say you did morally questionable things. say you drank all the milk but put the carton back in the fridge so your roomate would buy more. anything. just, please, don't say it's because you can't-

woman character, tearfully: I... I can't have children!

I wanted both the wiggle and the frog. Now it looks like the frog is happy because of the wiggle. Enjoy. Frog by @medlau

Okay but imagine the staff at the palace when Zuko takes the throne. They’re probably terrified? In their perspective, he was a little rage-filled 13 year old, who got banished, but then came back and was even more angsty than before. The next thing they know he’s gone again, Ozai is declaring himself Phoenix King and Azula is firing half the staff on a whim. But then the formerly-banished-angsty-angry teenage prince just comes back and claims the throne??

Like. Based on the staff’s previous experiences with Ozai and Azula they’re probably already terrified of the new Fire Lord by virtue of his family alone. There’s definitely a rumour going around that Zuko just usurped the throne cause he knew his father would be distracted by the avatar.

And when Zuko is Fire Lord, no one can still get a read on him because he abrupt and short and doesn’t seem to appreciate all his staff do. (Cause, you know, after three years on a boat and then wandering through the Earth Kingdom for another few months before camping out with the Avatar, the last thing Zuko needs is someone whose job is to brush his hair for Agni’s sake)

But slowly the staff start to realize he’s just awkward as all hell and has no idea what he’s supposed to be doing, because up until Lu Ten died he was fourth in-line to the throne, and when he was banished he never expected the crown, so now he’s just fumbling around trying to make the world a better place but with no training on how to be the Fire Lord.

And, bit by bit, he starts to win them over. He remembers their names and their birthdays and asks about the guard’s mother and her hydrangeas. He checks in with the maid to see how her daughter is doing in school. He commissions a painting from the server.

In return they start to do little things to make his life easier. (The cook brings in a platter of snacks during a meeting that happens to include Zuko’s favourite food and Fire Sage Hiro’s fire flakes so the old sage isn’t as grumpy. His tailor designs clothes in wonderful fire nation colours that are cut differently from Ozai’s robes so people will stop whispering about how much he looks like his father. The cleaner always puts his notes for the day on top of his desk so he doesn’t lose them in his disastrous library.)

And somehow, without really realizing it, they all come to have a fierce respect for Zuko. So much so that when a new servant comes in and is all “hey is it true that Fire Lord Zuko hates turtleducks” the staff shut that shit down immediately

how good they are at football

One student has his hand on a Van der Graaf generator, as the teacher narrates in an excellent impression of news anchors covering the macy’s thanksgiving day parade.]

Transcript: “-dies and gentlemen here we are it’s 2021 and all of my students are yet again Holding Hands and they just love each other so much oh wait no. Josh is holding us at a five hundred thousand volt charge… and now Mark’s hair is starting to go. [students chanting LETS GO intermittently] And now Alex is going to give him a fist bump [LETS GO!] and everybody is going to be SO HAPPY. Alex whenever you are ready, go!” [sound of an electrical arc] [all the students yelping in pain]
