Welcome to my tumblr!

oh gosh, so a long time ago i made this gifset of the trio and their surname meanings, and today i was like “i wonder why i defaulted to surnames and didn’t try first names?”

so i started looking them up.  i already knew daniel meant “god is my judge” because i watched too much stargate when i was younger.  i was like “that’s...kinda iffy but i could probably make it work”

then i tried samantha, which is a combination of samuel, meaning “god has heard” and anthos meaning “flower.”  neither of those sound too terribly sam-ish, but again, i was like “i could probs bs something with that”

but then i got to tucker.

which means “person who pleats or softens fabric or cloth”

and i was like

yeah nope.  i’ll just not do this then.

ok so i screenshotted this moment because i thought it was pretty cool

the first time we get to see all four elements working together for a common enemy, blah blah blah, but i started laughing because

sokka’s fucking boomerang. sokka threw a fucking boomerang at princess azula, renowned lightning bender and heir-apparent to the throne of the fire nation.

and sokka threw a boomerang at her.

I said it once and i say it again.

Azula considered Sokka to be the biggest threat in this group and countered him first. What this picture miss is Sokka sanding nearby. All members of this group unleash their attack at same time, but Azula reacts to boomerang first. If you watch this part in slow motion, you could see that Sokka’s boomerang was the first thing that would hit Azula and may even incapacitate her making her unable to continue to fight. So she had to counter in first. She deflected it with well placed shoot.

Then and only then, when there is no immediate threat, she starts to create her blue fire wall to counter other elements.

Lets think about this. How hard should you have to throw something to make it move faster that any elemental attack? Either all elemental attacks are slow or you are pretty strong. That said nonbenders with good aim and strong hands could easily overpower benders if they timed it right.(Aang got captured by Yuan archers who are all nonbenders.) Azula knew of this and acted according to it. She is talented bender and you may think that she should enlist other benders to help her track and capture Zuko, Iroh, and later avatar, but instead she uses her nonbender friend to help her.

Even if you have no bending you can still fight… and win.

Let’s not forget that on the Day of Black Sun, Sokka was the one in charge and Azula was no idiot Azula knew that.

When Aang, Sokka, and Toph all confronted Azula, she proceeded to make them chase her and waste their time. Azula is not only talented, she’s sly and smart as hell. WHO WAS THE ONE WHO SAW THROUGH THAT BS CHASE?

Sokka.

NOT ONLY THAT but after Sokka explains to the Gaang that Azula is just baiting them, Azula actually verbally attacks Sokka. Not through fighting, but through words, knowing not only that an intelligent person like him could only be brought down with emotions BUT that Sokka was the leader and if she could get him the stay, Aang and Toph would follow his lead.

Azula knew Sokka was their strength and took him down. WOULD SHE DO THAT IF HE WASNT A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO HER!!??!

No. She wouldn’t waste her time and energy on someone she didn’t think was capable of actually getting in her way.

WHEN SHE GETS HER FIREBENDING BACK SHE HAS THE OPTION OF ATTACKING BADASS METAL BENDING TOPH AND THE FUCKING AVATAR WHO DOES SHE ATTACK?!?!

Azula never underestimated the power of non benders especially an intelligent one like Sokka. Sokka was a huge threat to fucking Azula on multiple occasions. 

Remember that.

bawww, thank you!

Something I’ve been wondering about lately: we can see from mystery meat that Danny initially was looking for a way to reverse the accident so he could be fully human again. We know that by the end of the episode, he’s found a purpose for his powers. But it remains obvious that he would rather be a normal teen. So just when did he give up on “fixing” himself? At what point did this poor child realize that whatever happened to him in the portal was permanent? Was it a gradual shift after months of denial, or was it a sudden realization that he will be a halfa for the rest of his life. Perhaps it was after he met Vlad, a much older halfa that he considered his life, years and years from now, as a half ghost. How would that realization affect the way he thought about his future? What will his children be like, can he even have children? Will he be stuck fighting ghosts even as an old man? Can he ever hope to hold down a job while fighting ghosts? I just wanted an episode where Danny goes “oh crap, this is the rest of my life now. No undoing it.”

I meeeeeean, if we’re accepting the canon of Phantom Planet, he maybe just buried the desire deep down for awhile because it unfortunately resurfaced at an inopportune time.

Although, on that note, in PP, when he makes the decision to change himself back, he seems to....really know what he’s doing.  He fiddles with some buttons, adjusts some settings, and then just walks in and turns it on.  He knew it would work.

So could we then argue that he’s known about this method of fixing himself for awhile? That he’s known it was possible to change back for years...but he chose not to?  They mention as a side remark that the Fentons working on the portal made it “look like it did when he got his powers,” but that doesn’t mean Danny just magically knows how to change himself back all of a sudden.

Maybe he’s looked it up, done his research, and had this method stored in the back of his mind for a long time just in case.  

But he didn’t use that knowledge until it seemed like the only way to protect the people he loved.
