it's not luck, it's fate

At the ready. Atarah, aka oreocheesecakes, she/her || ko-fi || gifs, meta, piano covers, sheet music,fics || Life rants and random hyperfixations. Pretty much multifandom, but right now it's mostly Claude time. The tags are where it's at. Tokyo is my happy place. People say I'm in my early 20s.

In honor of the LoK finale anniversary, here’s a heartfelt love letter to the two shows closest to my heart: Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra. This piece is my longest and most ambitious arrangement to date, as well as my first successful attempt at a medley. I’ve teared up while working on this more times than I can count, as fitting each score together had me revisiting so many beloved scenes from the shows. I can only hope that listening to this little medley takes you on a similar emotional rollercoaster.

Here’s to everyone who worked to make Avatar happen, and of course, to @jeremyzuckerman​ and his heartbreakingly beautiful compositions that will always be capable of summoning a myriad of emotions in me. The biggest of thank yous for inspiring me and so many other people 💕

Support me on Ko-fi!

It's my Kataang fic and my Kataang gifset that have been unearthed and if my old fandom content has suddenly raked in numbers, then having it be the Kataang content is just absolutely right

A snippet of your LOK Katara + Korra fic from a decade ago is gaining numbers on twitter 😩 https://x.com/narutosdurag/status/2049542592526688568?s=46

I was literally about to make a post asking if anyone knew if my fic got promoted somewhere because I've been getting a bunch of comments and the most kudoses I've ever gotten in one email (and ever, honestly). For a fic I posted more than a decade ago!!!

Thank you for telling me hahaha, I really would have never thought of this explanation 😂

So Easy to Fall In Love by Olivia Dean has people singing about how lovable they are and I think that's just so heartwarming 💖

[penguinsledder]

Wait lakan telling jinshi to basically grow a pair and jinshi realizing that lakan is right and actually CLAIMING his birthright and power and position is SUCH A SCENE I WAS SCREAMING AND GETTING CHILLS AND PLAYING IT BACK OVER AND OVER

Masculine jinshi/Ka Zuigetsu 🔥🔥 >>>>>>>>>

Why does it feel right every time I let you in? Why does it feel like I can tell you anything? We can't fix it if we never face it What if we find a way to escape it? We could be free, free
