Imagine Zuko and Hakoda having a sea prune eating contest.
Jet headcanons to fill the void.
ـــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ـ
General headcanons post here. <-Will be repeated on this current post.
His birthname is Jian. Elaboration post here.
He named his Freedom Fighters. Their headcanon birthnames post here.
He puts his Freedom Fighters in the Timeout Corner sometimes. He even puts himself in the Timeout Corner.
If he could smoke (cigarettes) he'd hate it.
He can read, can write but not elegantly, but mispells words.
He has the constant urge to chew on or eat inedible things.
He hair ruffles, shoulder touches, gifts, roughhouses and nicknames to show affection.
Can nap anywhere, any position, any time if he really needs to. Wakes easily though.
He doesn't know how to use a chair correctly for more than fifteen minutes.
His favorite color is Oxford blue.
Hates being nicknamed or referred to by anything other than "Jet."
Fusses over the younger Freedom Fighters to the point they're exasperated.
He has to remind himself to eat vegetarian too because, like Sokka, he likes meat.
Has a lil tooth gap in his upper front teeth. Perfectly suited for his mouthplants.
Insecure about his eyebrows.
Jet would bully kids on Roblox in a modern AU.
He would have loved modern firefighters.
He paces when thinking.
Very good at stealth and staying hidden.
Likes holding his weight to one side when standing.
Crossed arms or hands on hips is his default emote.
He never knows how to say he is sorry.
He stares into space at random times.
ADHD.
15° idiopathic scoliosis.
Loves to tiptoe. Justifies it as "for stealth and balance" without knowing why he does it.
Prankster.
Tells people he's a picky eater but eats pretty much everything.
If someone knew they committed a crime (think theft related) Jet would cover them.
Slouches. Very often.
Weird posture habits.
Oriented Aroace.
Would love a platonic partner but no one seems to like his personality enough to.
Has sleepwalked before. Scared the shit out of Longshot.
He likes to exaggerate things through language or tone. "It was a *huge* turtle." (The turtle was average sized.)
Likes to whistle.
He has a shirt color for every season. (Like green for Summer.)
Hates being questioned, even about the most minor things.
Very good at reconizing and recreating various animal, particularly bird, sounds.
He needs floor time. Usually he is staring at the ceiling.
Secretly enjoys watching children do dumb things. (E.g. trying to catch their hot breath on a cold day in their hands.)
Nature lover. He speaks for the trees. Hurt the trees and he breaks your knees.
Can't handle criticism.
Only nicknames people if he's adopted them, honestly.
I doubt the word "fuck" exists in ATLA but he would use it. Alongside other strong language but never in front of kids.
If you told him you're proud of him he'd be speechless.
Often has a lopsided/half smile.
Slouches, leans down or crouches to make himself smaller when talking to kids.
Is ambidextrous, both his left and right hand are dominant.
Stole wine once. Got his first hangover. Sent the rest of it down the river and swore it off for life.
Has resting bitch face when not interacting with anyone.
Loves playing The Floor is Lava.
Hide-and-seek champion.
He's as "fuck the goverment" as it gets.
Knows how to braid people's hair for them.
Likes giving people cool feathers, rocks, flowers, clovers or sticks he finds.
Very good with kids. Not so much with everyone else.
He has had to bury his fighters before due to various causes of death. He always buried them by himself, not wanting the others to be present. He always planted a tree above the grave, hoping the decomposing body allowed new life to grow.
Struggles with Savior Complex, C-PTSD, Imposter Syndrome and Alexithymia.
A total romantic who kept trying to be his Freedom Fighters's wingman.
Absolute kleptomaniac. Probably good at pickpocketing too.
Can't sit still unless it's for stealth reasons.
He has a special interest in birds and bugs.
He has a fear of drowning.
It's hard for him to see someone crying. All his defenses go down to try and comfort them.
He does not laugh often but he has a weird one. Probably giggles and or snorts if he's truly amused.
He has childhood face freckles that faded but did not disappear over time.
He loves swings and hammocks.
He likes every bug except centipedes.
His hair is sort of curly. Mildly. It hasn't had it's original texture in years but it gets close to it during certain kinds of weather (high humidity.)
He quite enjoys hanging upside down from branches just because.
Would trap you in a platypus-bear hug (See what I did there?).
He threw a boomerang once and it never came back. He's pretty bummed out about it.
His signature mouthplant used to be a habit born out of boredom but since the attack, it's his primary grounding and self-soothing technique.
Would offer to hold your hand if you seem nervous.
He would've been pissed at me for ratting out his quirks (these headcanons) because it ruins the mysterious vibe.
About him putting himself in the Timeout Corner:
New headcanon pulled out of the void because why the hell not:
Azula misses Lu Ten dearly because at least he tried to spend time with her. Usually nerding out about things she wasn't interested in back then.
He was usually busy doing other things, but she could hang with him whenever.
He had a terrible sense of humor, a habit of messing up her hair, and never brewed her tea right.
And yet, she felt too angry to admit when she'd never experience this pain in the neck of a cousin again. And what better way to hide the fear than to pretend you never cared?
I feel like mod feels like that one incredibles meme sometimes.
What other ships do you like so I can make up headcanons.
I can’t think of any maitara ones rn besides Mai being an early riser, Katara goes to bed late at night.
Both of them are grumpy af when they first wake up, so the first couple of hours is them stumbling around, grunting at each other, sitting in silence till they’re more fully awake.
Sukaang is another fave
what do you think about Zuko x Ty Lee?
Out of all the dynamics in the Foursome
(which are, in no particular order)
Mai x Zuko
Azula x Ty Lee
Mai x Ty Lee
Azula x Zuko
Ty Lee x Zuko
Mai x Azula
... Hopefully I didn't forget any...
It's probably closer to the bottom for me than the top, along with Mailee. But that doesn't mean it's not interesting or doesn't have potential. Would I ship it outside of the Foursome? No, probably not. Though I could be persuaded by a good fic or good art, so never say never. I think their canon dynamic is close to nonexistent, though.
Of course, that's never stopped anyone, and they obviously know each other and have a long history. I would imagine it was the sort of history where Ty Lee was antagonistic towards him in a little sisterly way, ganging up on him alongside Azula, while secretly harboring feelings.
I am more of a Lesbian Ty Lee Truther but writing Ripples has caused me to have to set that aside a bit. Hell, I think Azula is entirely a lesbian and just makes a special exception for Zuko, who doesn't count for her, but I digress.
Lil height chart, extension of this post.
Decided to put the poll results on a seperate post with my personal comment for reblog-ability.
ـــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ـ
Final voting results from a total of 140 votes:
Here are my takes:
Bumi seems too unserious for a relationship.
Master Piandao loves his solitary life.
Jeong Jeong is too ashamed of himself to even consider it but I'm pretty sure he's just generally uninterested because he doesn't feel attraction.
Yue is shy and sex repulsed especially since she never had a say in her personal life and everything was always about duty.
Haru seems like he'd be in a QPR or otherwise platonic relationship.
Zuko is sex repulsed and would only do it to produce an heir.
Azula is bi-curious aroacespec and it really depends on her mood, she can get romantic but never sexual.
Toph forms aesthetic and bond crushes but is aroace.
Mai just couldn't really care for sex, she'd like a partner but even then she's usually lowkey on being romantic.
Earth King Kuei is too confused and uneducated to desire sex or even romance and even if that weren't the case he'd be too nervous.
June looks like a sexy provocative woman but she is an aroace icon in my eyes.
And Jet seems oriented aroace to me (look Oriented aroace up), and while he might get romantic he's not so sure if he's feeling the *attraction romantically*, he just wants someone to hold, cherish and comfort and for those aspects to be reciprocated.
I like to think that Vieng would call Kuei "Gege" for a short period of time since it was fun to tease the dude who talks to his bear until he found out that dude was in fact the Earth King and promptly took 5000 mental damage like full on punching himself and screaming + ripping out his hair internally because he was so embarrassed.
Translation note: In Chinese, Gege (哥哥) literally translates to "older brother". While young children use it for actual siblings, adults and teens use it with varying levels of affection and context. For example; a person uses "Gege" to call an older man or a crush, it indicates high intimacy or flirtation, similar to how "Oppa" is used in Korean.
