ⓘATLA RANT: We don't hate these guys enough.

ـــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ــــــــــــــــــــﮩ٨ـ

⚠︎Spoilers for City of Echoes novel, The Rift comic trilogy and Jet: Rebels and Rhinos comic, I guess.

Rant below.

Fuck you mean Smellerbee and Longshot ran into these guys in Ba Sing Se during Sozin's comet but didn't get to avenge Jet?

Fuck you mean they're reduced to overly aggressive security gaurds for a factory in the comics?

Fuck you mean these mass murderers, these sadists get off scot-free?

This motherfucker especially.

Do I even need to explain it? This guy gets zero punishment for the glee he feels making other's lives a living hell.

Him and his OG team.

Might as well count these comic exlusive, will-never-be-seen-or-mentioned-again pricks too.

"Ozai" this, "Zhao" that. Bitch, please. I've been their number one hater since day one. Let me just spin the wheel real quick to decide their fate.

Colonel Mongke (ATLA)

Aka n°1 on my list of the underrated/forgotten characters of Avatar ( TLA & TLOK) .

Next ones, either his fellow Rough Rhinos either the guard of Omashu.

It’s been almost 14 years since the premiere of the Sozin’s Comet episodes. 14 years and many, many fics depicting harsh fates for Azula. Of fics depicting Azula suffering and detained indefinitely as punishment for vaguely defined “crimes” that somehow never are connected to her onscreen actions.

Many of my fellow Azula fans have already spent time on Azula’s legal defense team, so that’s not my primary focus today. No, today I have a question for the prosecution: why does punishment and accountability never seem to apply to the Rough Rhinos and Southern Raiders?

The Rough Rhinos who burned and murdered their way up and down the Earth Kingdom. (Like they did to Jet’s village and parents. Like they would have done to Chin Village had the Gaang not been there at the time.)

The Southern Raiders who decimated the Southern Water Tribe after decades of attacks. (Who abducted so thoroughly abducted waterbenders that Katara seems to be the only one of her generation, at least going by the show. Whose abductions filled inhumane prisons.)

Just why is punishing Azula given priority over these groups? Over these grown men who we know committed atrocities?

Finished Fic: Beyond the Painted Hills

You know the kind of crack pairing that you go into thinking "ha ha ha wouldn't it be funny if" and by the end you're ugly crying about their love story?

Yeah.

In which an older June finds out it's not too late after all.

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Title: Beyond the Painted Hills Relationships: June/Colonel Mongke (the Rough Rhinos guy) Summary: June doesn't know why she wanders the wild coast of Shaozu year after year in the dry times between bounties. She knows no one here, has nothing. That is, until one night she finally stumbles upon the only thing she's ever lost. Rated T

My loaf, I'm just here to tell you that as of this ask that i am writing i have not finished the chapter yet, but as soon as I started reading the line

"Sokka watched as the dark alleys bleed blue as tanned men with recognizable weapons ran out from the darkness…

Water Tribe warriors…."

I had to pause cause I was this close to losing it. I took a good pause cause all these reunions are overwhelming to my goofy ass and I went to yell to my sibling in their room, who has no idea I'm reading fanfiction and started I laughing while walking in circles cheering that they're about to die while not elaborating who.

I think they were just a tad bit concerned that i lost it. Which honestly.... Yeah

Just letting you know.

I’m sorry your sibling was so concerned,,,, but in your defense… I did squish a bunch of reunions together in one big ball of chaos haha.

I figured…. Why not?!

:D

So I was re-watching the Desert episode to help me practice writing Katara, but now I have some thoughts courtesy of my singular braincell:

-Zuko joins Rough Rhinos AU

-Gotta write something for poor Aang too now

-Evil Aang AU material

-Sandbenders get rekt

-IT'LL QUENCH YA

The Rough Rhinos Encounter The Kyoshi Warriors

Colonel Mongke: Put down your weapons and we won't harm you.

Suki: Put down YOUR weapons and WE won't harm YOU!

*SOME TIME LATER*

Veterinarian: Are you sure? This komodo rhino seems to be in perfect health.

Colonel Mongke: I'm afraid so. I was given an ultimatum and I'd rather like to live.
