Here's the Motherfuckin Tea

Hey yall!

I'm Tea, welcome to my blog!

Here are some things that i'd like to share with the class before we get started.

I'm 21, I go by he/him pronouns, I'm a virgo (Aquarius moon, and scorpio rising for those who might be wondering). I'm a huge fan of Avatar the Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra (I will NOT tolerate any Korra slander in my vicinity so Korra haters, stay tf away). I'm a bio student at university which is tiring, and a volleyball player addict which is even more so lol. I repost anything and everything so be warned!!

A little something I'd like to put forward are my literary works: Avatar: Between the Legends, The Skin's Memory and Bruises Are Blue.

Avatar: Between the Legends is an anthology of fanfiction that takes place within the ATLA and TLOK universe. It follows the stories of characters that live outside of the spotlight, in the shadow of the grand legends of the avatar. Each chapter is a standalone story except for one two-parter. The current stories I have are the following:

A young swamp bender living in the swamp after Kuvira tried to harvest its vines.

Two Waterbenders fighting in the 100 year war, holding onto each other for warmth

A Southern Water Tribe healer and a Weastern Airbender who fall in love before the 100 year war

A Firebender and a Waterbender out on a stroll in the Spirit Wilds of Republic City

A noble from the Upper Ring of Ba Sing Se who only has her sister to hang onto when the city turns against her

A former pro-bender and a new Airbender finding peace with opposite grief

Before you say anything: yes, I do have a favorite element; no i shan't appologise for it. More stories are planned but this anthology is on the back burner for now to make space for a new project.

The Skin's Memory is a story I'm writing in an original fantasy world of my own making that I'm very proud of so far! It was born from an avatar fanfiction that I had started writing ages ago, but now it's found not only it's voice, but it's own world and language (just to clarify, the story is written in English, that's not what I meant by "own language" lol). It follows the story of Atka and Taiyo, two young men who escaped a secret island where they were forced to be child soldiers since they were very young. This story is about how people survive after the trauma happened, how they define themselves because of it, and what happens when their past inevitable comes back for them. Here's a taste of the story, or an amuse bouche as the French would say:

"Atka’s vision went black. He woke up with a jolt. His heart still pounded a little. His body still ached. His mind was still in the clearing. But then he smelled the warm spices. Cinnamon, nutmeg, sage. Taiyo. Atka’s heart calmed, and his mind was brought back to the waking world with his body. He looked across the room to Taiyo, still asleep in his own bed. Chest, rising and falling. Steady. True. Real."

I have a whole story bible for this project, and I know where I'm going with it, and I cannot wait to share future chapters with you all! I'm also happy to answer any questions about the worldbuilding, and I'm open to any feedback on the writing as well!

Lastly, Bruises Are Blue. It's a quick, short story that I wrote, this time within the Marvel Universe. It's the story of two Mutants, Colt and Sereno, who have an arrangement where Sereno brings Colt Mutants to heal without asking questions, while maintaining distance and anonymity with their patients. It's a story about the cost of care and about finally being seen beyond usefulness. If you want a little backstory on this one, the characters in this story used to be OCs from my Marvel Amino days, but Amino DIED, so I had to create them from just my memory out of the 70 BILLION OCs I had on there. Anyway, think of this story as a shrine to all the creative knowledge and practice Amino brought to me when it wasn't glitching or when there wasn't some dumb drama brewing in the roleplay chats :')

These stories can be found on Wattpad and on AO3 (where you can also find the avatar fanfiction version of The Skin's Memory!) My AO3 and Wattpad profiles will be linked below. Other than that, I hope you have a wonderful day, and I can't wait to share all this and more with you!

Warm regards,

Tea 🪐

I wish i could post all of this

Here's a preview of a chapter I've already finished writing. The problem is that I can't post the whole thing because i haven't finished writing the chapter that come before it :') I'm still giving you a preview because i'm pretty happy with it, but I don't want to spoil anything for you if you do want to read the full story and have the proper experience!

Anyway here's a preview of The Skin's Memory, chapter 6: The Wind's Guidance

Sangmo sat on the deck of the Island, resting her weight on her arms pressed against the deck behind her, feet dangling off the side, the high tide bringing the water just up to her toes. The sun had already set, leaving only a few of his colours behind to paint the horizon line yellow and orange and giving the moon back her domain. The gentle breeze filled her nostrils with the scent of salt and sea. It did her some good after being in that stuffy room, suffocated by the weight of a history that didn’t belong to her. It didn’t belong to her, but still, she was faced with a choice. Maybe the wind could help her decide.

Instead, the wind brought her Atka. The Tideweaver sat beside her, toes dipping in his native element. She didn’t look at him. She didn’t want to risk seeing someone different. Instead, she looked at his reflection in the water, his skin glistening in the light of the moon. A paler blue than what she’d been used to seeing in other Tideweavers.

For a while, they just sat there in silence. Neither knowing how to open the conversation, they knew they needed to have. The only sound filling the air was that of the waves crashing against the shore. The water swirling in the sea like Sangmo’s thoughts in her head. She bit the inside of her cheek, almost fighting the urge to ask that question. She knew the answer. But she needed to hear it.

“Have you ever—“ she cut herself off, caught off guard at the sound of her voice breaking. She hadn’t noticed how tight her throat had gotten until right then. “Have you ever killed somebody?”

Atka didn’t reply at first. He just looked ahead of him at the colours finally leaving the sky. There they were again. The stars, with the moon’s tyrannical glow. Almost daring him not to answer. Well?

Avatar: The Skin's Memory

We've got a new fanfiction on air!!! Introducing: Avatar: The Skin's Memory

They were children when they met on Laghima Island. They were children when they learned what their bending could be weaponised to do. Now, years later, Atka and Taiyo hide their past behind concealer and smiles, clinging to each other in a city that doesn't know what they've survived. But the past has a way of surfacing. And when it does, they'll have to decide: keep running, or finally face what was done to them—and what they were forced to do.

This story is available on AO3 as a fanfiction, and for those interested, it's also on Wattpad as an original fiction!!! yayyyyy okay here are the links, hope you enjoy! leave a comment!

Avatar: Between the Legends

before you say anything YES i've posted this before and NO i have no shame about it since it wasn't on my blog lol. anyway

What if the Avatar's story wasn't the only one worth telling?

A collection of standalone stories about the lives that happen just off-screen in the Avatar world. No prophecies. No grand destinies. Just people trying to survive, love, and hold onto hope.

Current stories:

A child and the Foggy Swamp's corruption

A bloodbender and a combustion bender finding love in Republic City

Water Tribe soldiers keeping each other alive through war

Psychological horror in Ba Sing Se's Upper Ring

A healer and an Air Nomad, before the genocide

More to come soon!!!!!!!!

Vibe check: Bittersweet, emotionally heavy. Queer rep, original characters, lots of grief. Think character study over action.

Warnings: violence, character death, psychological horror, trauma

Read on AO3 :)

What corners of the Avatar world do you wish got explored more?

[twenteasomething]

Hi y'all!

So I'm writing an Avatar anthology about characters that live in the shadows, away from the spotlight of the grand Legends of the Avatar. Since it's a bit of a writing experiment, the stories might get edited in significant ways (as in not just fixing typos, i actually added a whole scene in one of them), and the order of the anthology might get edited to reflect an overall arc. I will be writing in the summary (of the whole story) when it's edited and which chapter has been edited (by title since the order shifts haha) and also when the order changes!

Here's the link to the AO3!

Here's the wattpad link!

Here's the FFN link :) (I still haven't figured out how to change the order here so for now it's the archaic order so ig you can look at this one if you're curious of the chronological writing order lol)

Anyway, hope you enjoy reading these! They're all quick reads (the longest chapter being around 3.5k words) and can be read in any order!

Thanks <3
