I low key love when a fic takes forever to update because I will have forgotten everything and then I just get to re-read the whole thing again it’s like the cocaine of delayed gratification to me I love it.

ur the only motherfucker in this city who can handle me

#do u want to kiss about this btw. my friend thinks ur hot #ask #taob asks

always liked chena because I think people victims of a genocidal regime should be able to act nasty to the prince of that regime . I remember the older days when people would be weird about chena being an adult and acting like that to a kid as if zuko wasnt from the people who literally wiped out his 😭 like hes lucky he wasnt killed on the spot. the fandom just cant handle the idea that zuko isnt the victim of the universe

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 6 years being a zuko-centric writer i have seen some nonsenseeee i need you to know every single time someone is even slightly mean to zuko in taob EVERY SINGLE TIME i will always get at least one comment of someone not liking it. and it's like you are reading a fic that is predominantly about PRINCE ZUKO interacting with THE SOUTHERN WATER TRIBE. he is explicitly in several of their povs acknowledged to represent the long-term and ongoing brutalisation of their culture. it takes TIME to get past that to see the human underneath and each of their characters goes about it differently, with chena being the one most visibly on the far end of the 'does not forgive does not forget' scale. like when i started taob that was the WHOLE point of his character and it's remained very important to me that chena doesn't ever lose his anger or hatred of the fire nation. it never dims it never warps. actually when i was writing the interaction between him and chit sang in the last chapter i had a little rant about this to some of my mutuals let me go find it.

!!!!! my beloved chena who had every right on earth to not want zuko on that damn boat

#'b-b-but zuko's just a kid and chena attacked him!!!' i think he should have been worse #ask #taob asks

"drag path" by twenty one pilots but it's taob zuko at the beginning of his prison era is this anything

this is a v sensitive subject for me

#omgggggg how have i never thought of this i feel SICK. all the hints of who zuko was pre and post fong. him leaving hakoda his sword #the blood on the hill. the smashed tea leaves. all the hints he dropped as evidence he left there on purpose #CAN YOU FIND ME. FOUR MONTHS. THEY TRIED SO HARD TO GET HIM BACK #this is so chilling like ive never considered this but for those chapters between gaoling and the boiling rock #if u go just go from everyone else's povs EVEN AZULA'S OR TOVAH'S two people who are WITH him #then he is still heavily haunting the narrative. the boy with them is so viscerally ghost-like he is such a physical embodiment #of something awful that was done to him that cannot be undone #and then for the swt crew and iroh and tom nook and even the gaang zuko is just..... gone #but they see him in Everything and he tried so hard to stay oh im SICKKKKKKK #ask #taob asks

I read taob for the first time in middle school during covid (long time fan, ik) and it resonated with me to a degree that I didn’t understand until right now, years later, during one of the darkest periods of my life. Now, I'm 19, and the vulnerability and complexity that comes with healing that you allow Zuko to portray has allowed me to take the first steps towards healing from my own past. Though we may never meet face-to-face, I want you to know that your work has impacted me in integral ways that transcend the boundaries of these screens we communicate through. I hope you aren't letting this crazy world get you too down 🫶🏻

what a beautiful ask to receive. im so glad my story could help you in such an important way and i hope you're doing a bit better and being kind and patient with yourself!

#you may not always or even ever heal in clean linear ways and that makes it so so scary to begin #it was important to me when writing zuko that he took a good few chapters to even decide he WANTED to get better #because there's such a security and comfort to staying in a bad place #and healing is very bright and scary and sometimes it's downright humiliating and sometimes you'll get WORSE for a bit #and it all seems like some messed up trick that only skipped you out of everyone else in the whole world #but it isn't and it hasn't. you won't just wake up fixed one day. but i hope you'll notice it in quiet random moments as time goes on :)#all my love and i wish you the best!#ask #taob asks
