[permian-tropos]

tumblr what is wrong with you first the walrus vs fairy thing and now this? are you saying it's less fucked up to find out you're not a biological organism than find out you're a human created from one parent-twin who is genetically identical to you?

[hamletthedane]

Clone: horror at the lie of your body (for what purpose? how many are there? are they like you?)

vs.

Robot: horror at the lie of your mind and your humanity itself (have you ever actually had a thought of your own, or is everything you are/you think/you understand just created by another person’s brain? whose mind/brain are you?? whose thoughts are in your head?? What does it mean to “think” when you’re only a manmade echo of humanity constructed from Boolean logic loops? Do you even have a soul?)

There’s a CLEAR ANSWER HERE.

[distortiondragon]

clone: you are the theft of another being, inextricably tied by the blood running through your veins they may not have even given to you. you aren't you, you're them, you were made to be them, you're not different, there shpuld not be a you, you are them,

robot: ok well im a robot so show me my blueprints so i can install a sword in my arm to beat up ppl that i dont like. what the fuck ever. can i run doom

[weeping-wandrian]

So the Jet/Zuko fight scene is great for many reasons but can you imagine, sitting in dunkins donuts, sipping your dunkaccino, and this crazed teenager comes in with these enormous. hooks? and accuses the ALSO teenaged cashier of being a russian sleeper agent and there’s a cop who tries to diffuse the situation but instead of letting things de-escalate the cashier leaps over the counter, steals the cop’s gun, and says “i’ll give you a show” i mean-

WHY DID YOU HIDE THIS EXCELLENT ADDITION IN THE TAGSJFJGKF

[chimaerakitten]

hey… do you guys think… that the blue spirit became kinda like a criptid/myth in the ATLA verse? like Zuko never told the public about it obviously. and we know from the ember Island players episode that the blue spirit was “The scourge of the fire nation” so do like… do you think people are out there… looking for the blue spirit like bigfoot… and Zuko is sitting in his palace like “I wonder what I did with that old mask”

[animentality]

god i hope so.

I think it’s so funny during the exchange on the balloon when sokka is like, “yeah being good at war seems to run in the family,” and zuko gets all defensive and goes, “hold on, not everyone is like that!” and at first sokka thinks he’s talking about himself, but then zuko reveals that he’s talking about his uncle. and sokka just has to sit there mentally calculating whether it would be a good idea to bring up the fact that historically, his uncle is great at war. if i had to attempt to transcribe his inner monologue in that moment it would just be “don’t bring up the dragon of the west don’t bring up the dragon of the west this guy is willingly sacrificing his life for your self-indulgent suicide mission you need him on your side don’t bring up the dragon of the west…” at which point he then looks back up at zuko and says thru gritted teeth, “haha yeah. no, cuz like, totally. for sure.”

Really do not get the arguments about who the strongest avatar is. Like, the answer is clearly Szeto. Dude canonically worked as court bureaucrat, meaning he not only mastered the four elements but on top of that also administrative law. Administrative law. This is a man to fear.

[visit-ba-sing-se]

Wait I just realised this makes a scene like this possible: Zuko: I really want to pass this law but that one nobleman on the council keeps blocking me and I know no way around him  Aang: *Enters avatar state* Aang: So actually there are 3 ways on how to make this work legally 

[achairwithapandaonit]

headcanon that uncle iroh was very scary so the sailors on zuko’s ship never swore around him and zuko knows no swearwords. aang, however, knows all of them and just chooses not to use them

[achairwithapandaonit]

aang: i said fuck once cause gyatso said it and all the monks got mad at him. i haven’t said it since

zuko, who has never heard a swearword before: ????

iroh like a month later, having a zuko who knows swearwords returned to him: which one of you was it? ):< sokka?

[achairwithapandaonit]

i’m wheezing

[achairwithapandaonit]

u know what,,, au where while zuko is chasing aang, aang is letting out the most creative stream of swearwords known to man and zuko just. keeps. pausing. like what is he saying?? what does he mean???? meanwhile iroh is like,,, ‘avatar aang, i don’t think you’re a good influence on my nephew’ because zuko repeated ‘monkeyfeathers’ once to ask what the fuck it means. imagine ur enemy’s uncle comes up to u mid fight to request that u stop partaking in fights with his nephew because ur a bad influence and you’re LITERALLY the avatar and do not control the rate at which zukos attempt to fight you

[comradekatara]

that time zuko risked getting arrested by firebending in the middle of ba sing se just so he could light up a fountain to make some random girl happy but then when she tried to kiss him he held up a coupon in front of his face. like, he didn’t even want to kiss her, he just did that because he’s a compulsive people pleaser

[comradekatara]

never getting over the fact that zuko would dress up as his favorite character from his favorite opera to go and rob ppl with swords. cannot imagine a gayer activity

[kyoshi-lesbians]

my controversial opinion is I don’t think Zuko was confused by “my first girlfriend turned into the moon”

[kyoshi-lesbians]

he was there during siege of the North. he infiltrated the spirit oasis. he has an uncle who studies spirits and the spirit world. he watched the sky go dark then the moon suddenly reappear like everyone else in the entire world did. and most importantly he watched zhao get eaten by a giant godzilla fish spirit.

[kyoshi-lesbians]

his entire life since he saw that beam of blue-white light in the south pole has been ‘this day has already been so goddamn weird’

[edgar-allan-possum]

The only really new information was that that was Sokka’s girlfriend

[comradekatara]

whenever ppl use the tag #atla spoilers i cannot help but laugh. have myself a little chuckle, if u will. queens............ she ended in 2008....... we’ve had 3 US presidents since then......... what is being spoiled that has not already been spoiled by like. the natural passage of time ..

[paintedpatroclus]

zuko: never forget when my sister posted her workout video with me in the back like that

only atla is bold enough to have a beach episode but exclusively for its villains

[visit-ba-sing-se]

Katara and Suki have matching mugs saying “tears of sexists” and no you cannot change my mind 

[nothing-more-than-hot-leaf-juice]

Toph has one that just says “tears of ___” to keep everyone on their guard

[takeabiteoutofthesilversandwich]

Zuko has one that says “my tears” and he drinks from it whenever something slightly inconveniences him

[firelord-boomerang]

Zuko having a connection to the spirit world but instead of it being something deep and profound, it’s just because he spent three years pre-finding the avatar running towards the first weird magical shit he saw.
