In all seriousness, I love how Ymir Fritz was first presented to us as the Eldian goddess, an impervious, vague and perfect model of power and grace. The Founding Titan. Someone with powers to rival god. The founder of one of the most powerful empires and the world. And the truth behind that contained a multitude of suffering and pain. She was only a child forced to suffer for the sake of those who wanted power. She was only human, after all. And I fucking love that.

ksykksyy

Remember when we thought that Zeke threatened/brainwashed/controlled Eren to go along with his plan? Lol nope, we were wrong.

Remember when Zeke said in the last chapter that Grisha brainwashed/controlled Eren? Lol wrong again.

Remember when the fucking Notre Dame burned down and everyone knew instantly and it was over every single news outlet?

Well there’s been a massacre going on in Sudan for DAYS and NOBODIES COVERING IT!

So there is currently a media blackout in Sudan to try and coverup the horrors taking place:

Stop what you’re doing and please reblog this. Innocent people are being murdered, people are trapped, have no internet access, and are being raped by the dozens on the streets of Sudan.

The death toll is estimated to be over 300 civilians. And the fact that not a single major news outlet is covering this is horrific and disgusting. Please help get the word out about Sudan!

Do you have an a03/Twitter/etc. since tumblr is going to implode? I'm messaging all the writing and/or art blogs I follow lmao

Zuko and Mai v Mr. Boomerang.

lb-lee-deactivated20180415

One of the reasons Avatar is one of the few epic fantasies I’ve actually liked is that nobody is above indignity.

This is a thing a lot of genres do, but epic fantasies seem to be impressively devoid of any sense of humor, and often cave to the temptation to make the villains or heroes so badass that nothing embarrassing or stupid ever happens to them.

In Avatar (the last airbender, anyway, haven’t seen Korra), everyone has stupid shit happen to them. Even Fire Lord Ozai has his moments– “No, Fire Lord Ozai, YOU aren’t wearing pants!” Azula gets covered in mud. Zuko has… well, getting conked in the head by a boomerang is only the beginning of the stupid undignified shit he experiences. (Though he still doesn’t compare to Sokka, the emperor unto perpetuity of Shameland.)

And I love that. Because in life, sometimes you get covered in mud. Sometimes you get conked in the head when you’re trying to be brooding and dramatic. STUPID SHIT HAPPENS TO YOU. And in real life, you still manage to be badass, or terrible, even in your moments of human frailty.

I wish I saw that more often.

Yes! This, so much. That’s definitively something I’ve noticed too, and I love it!

Actually, in a way, I think it’s kind of addressed in the show itself:

Zuko was publicly humiliated, punished and banished for speaking out of turn at a meeting. This was considered a personal offense to the Fire Lord: they were so strict and enamored with their “dignity” that the slightest misstep by a child could turn into some sort of great insult. And if you’re insulted the proper response is to defend your honor in Agni Kai, a duel to the death (with a child if need be).

In contrast, among the Air Nomads, it was okay to throw mud pies at the head monks and laugh your ass off. It was even encouraged: creativity, fun and humility were seen as the most essential qualities. No one was above pranks - neither being pranked nor even doing the pranks. And it didn’t mean they didn’t know respect - we know Aang had enormous respect for his elders and their teachings. It’s actually a much truer form of respect than what you could find in the Fire Nation, where fear kept you silent.

So, I think there is a lesson here, that maybe we should learn not to hold our dignity in such high regard, that it’s good to know how to laugh at yourself? And when ATLA has fun with its serious characters, it’s also a way to illustrate this idea - the show is all the richer by not taking itself too seriously.

Does anyone else remember that time Zuko went on a date with a girl because his uncle forced him too. And then she wanted to take him to her favorite spot. But then they got there and the lights weren’t lit to reflect in the water and she got pretty sad. So then even though he was supposed to be undercover and not using his bending, he told her to close her eyes and lit the lamps for her just so he could see her happy. God Dammit he was a good character

The head writer and a director of Avatar: The Last Airbender are making a new Netflix Original animated series

Aaron Ehasz, the head writer of ATLA, has started a new production company called Wonderstorm that is producing a new, original animated series for Netflix in conjunction with a AAA video game in the same universe, unrelated to the Avatar universe.

He is being joined by Giancarlo Volpe (Twitter, Tumblr), one of ATLA’s main directors who has also worked on Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Green Lantern: The Animated Series, and Star vs. the Forces of Evil.

At the moment, Wonderstorm looks like a team of ten, among them: it was co-founded with Justin Richmond (an Uncharted director) and Justin Santistevan from Riot Games, where Ehasz worked from 2012-2015 as a creative director for League of Legends (and Volpe worked as a director for animated content). Aaron Ehasz has also been a writer on Futurama.

This résumé of worldbuilding-heavy TV series and video games looks like it’s the crux of what Wonderstorm’s goals are all about: creating a new fictional world (or worlds?) with deep and broad lore and building a franchise from that across different forms of media, integrated with one another more than you might typically see. Currently it sounds like they’re working on one main original scifi or fantasy universe, with a video game and Netflix Original animated series on the way, and it sounds like from the ground-up they’re focusing on having the show and game coexist meaningfully. Pretty cool!

They’re aiming for a late 2018 release.

AHHH I LOVE YOU!! (how did I just see this. I’m too MIA from my inbox)

I am a fan of sickfics actually, so I think it would be really cool if you wrote one (there are no sickfics for the kacchako fandom either, as far as I can tell :( ). One thing you could do to incorporate Bakugou missing out on school is him forcing himself to go to school, only to collapse and have Uraraka take him back to the dorms to rest and take care of him? Another could be that she notices that he's increasingly sick but denying it until one day he's too sick to move and she visits him?1/

These are just a couple of ideas of how to incorporate sick + missing out on school, please feel free to use or reject them! 2/2

Hi anon! In the one-shot I’m currently working on, Bakugou is basically sick by himself as in a side situation, but after reading all the suggestions I’ve received and this really nice request (ty for being so polite), I’m trying to focus more on the sick scene. If it doesn’t work out in this one-shot, I will work on a separate sick fic using all the ideas everyone gave me. (everyone was so nice. I was surprised at how many replies my post received)

Thanks for the idea anon! I’ll keep this in mind as well. :D

#ask twitwrites #anon ask #kacchako

Suggestions Pls.

Trying to overcome writer’s block by working on a Kacchako one shot, but I can’t think of a good reason as to why Bakugou would skip school because he is extremely ambitious and studious??

I ALSO CAN’T SEE HIM GETTING SICK BECAUSE HE SEEMS LIKE THE TYPE TO GET OVER A COLD THROUGH SHEER WILLPOWER?!

help.
