hi yeah what the fuck is this
oh wow they really killed reblog chains. so did every social media site sign like a suicide pact or are they all just that inept
hi yeah what the fuck is this
it’s crazy how an entire generation of kids lusted after zuko when he is by far the least charismatic character in atla and canonically a terrible boyfriend.
#agreed#i love zuko ofc but. he's... well i guess a lot of people's first poor little meow meow#but i had a thing for azula so idk if i've got much room to judge#oh and i think i had a thing about yue too? i don't remember tbh#also june#i think i thought katara was really cute but kinda overbearing sometimes#i don't ship zuko with anyone tbh especially not myself#he's like sasuke to me he's there to be tormented while i steal his girl#atla
Zuko on seeing Azula again after not seeing her for 3 years(”The Avatar State”):
(The camera pans out, revealing Azula at a table in the foreground, her hand on a seashell. Cut to Zuko and Iroh, who look surprised, and then angry. Zuko steps forward.) Zuko: (accusingly) What are you doing here? (Cut back to Azula. The camera looks up at her from below. She seems utterly unaffected by their glares. She toys with the seashell in her hand.) Azula: (arrogantly) In my country, we exchange a pleasant ‘hello’ before asking questions. (She gets up and walks over to face Zuko.) Have you become uncivilized so soon, Zuzu? Zuko: (furiously) Don’t call me that! Iroh: To what do we owe this honor?
He’s instantly angry, hostile, and resentful, expressing zero pleasure at seeing her again, zero affection toward her, and zero interest in her wellbeing(Iroh reacts very similarly).
Mai upon seeing Azula again after not seeing her for a year or two(”Return to Omashu”):
(Cut to a shot of several Fire Nation guards carrying Azula’s litter on their shoulder through one of Omashu’s plazas. Cut to a profile view of Azula sitting in her litter. Cut to a short, pan right still of Mai standing at the foot of a large, white staircase, then cut to an overhead shot of the guards lowering the litter to the ground in front of Mai. Azula gets out walks over to Mai, joined quickly by Ty Lee.) Mai: (bowing, speaking in a dull voice) Please tell me you’re here to kill me. (Cut to a close up of Mai, who looks up slightly and smiles. Cut back to a wider shot of the three as Mai and Azula begin to laugh.) Azula: (hugging Mai) It’s great to see you, Mai.
She smiles, is at ease, cracks an affectionate joke, hugs Azula in a very Mai fashion, and is very clearly happy to see her friend again.
Yet somehow 95% of the fandom is convinced that Zuko cares about, loves, and likes Azula more than Mai does, when by all appearances it’s the other way around.
#atla#yeah#like ofc fics where the fire sibs love each other are sweet but uh. they aren't canon#hell azula does more nice things for zuko than vice versa they're just not counted bc they're on the other side of the war#and probably also cuz she's a bit of a bitch about it#but it's funny when fics have zuko trying to reach out to her without ever mentioning that in the show azula was the one trying to do that#like she's an asshole but she seems. relatively fond of him? in her own very weird way#like zuko has his reasons not to trust her and all so it's not that i don't get it#but yeah honestly azula's healthiest relationship was probably with mai#i think ty lee likes her to some extent but she's also very much afraid of her#mai... isn't. like at all#i know in the boiling rock mai has a line that can be interpreted as tho she is but i really doubt it#it's weird how people act like mai was thirdwheeling tyzula or azula was thirdwheeling mailee#when i'm pretty sure if anyone was the third wheel ty lee was
(Zuko isn't here, since Azula's relationship with him is a whole other mess).
And please reblog!
#probably katara?#she wouldn't exactly like aang but he'd try very hard to get along with her#she and sokka would at least be able to respect each other's intelligence and planning skills#suki.... idk i know azula said some shit during the black sun but i think that was mostly to tick off sokka#suki i think would be cautious but probably not too antagonistic? like she's cool with ty lee now so probably she'd be chill-ish#azula and toph would get along way too well in the weirdest ways possible#like they wouldn't be best friends or anything but they have way too much in common for something not to click#but katara... yeah that one would be rough#neither azula nor katara are particularly forgiving people and aang might push for katara to be nice-ish but azula would never accept it#and katara wouldn't keep playing nice with someone who's being a bitch to her she'd just be a bitch right back#plus they have like. opposite direction mommy issues so when that inevitably came up one of them would set off the other pretty quick#hilariously i think both of them would have a much easier time working with zuko during the periods they hated him most than each other#honestly i think if the gaang+azula had an enemy to fight the most important factor would be keeping katara and azula away from each other#not even bc of the agni kai thing tbh i think they'd just massively clash as people
the fact that 3.5% of people think he loves them equally... like have you actually watched the show? he's nicer to ozai than her.
#atla#which makes sense bc they grew up together and most people know their siblings better than their nieces/nephews#like iroh doesn't even pretend to like her#whenever he talks about azula it's as zuko's sister or ozai's daughter#i'm not sure he's ever even called her his niece#at best he's indifferent to her#he certainly doesn't love her lmao
#kasndklsndklasdn#dbz#get his ass goku#vegeta: *child soldier since at least three or four; spent at least 25 years in the frieza force; has never not known swear words*#gohan: *actual baby; mom worked hard to teach him how to talk without the accent; likes vegeta for some fucking reason*#i love how goku just. instantly knew#like nah it wasn't krillin or yamcha or even piccolo (not that i think he swears much tbh) it was definitely vegeta#lbr tho only like a third of it was vegeta#the true culprit is bulma
On all those "Azula needs to be humbled before any redemption is even considered" takes
Stop it. Get some help😊
#atla#yeah#like idk how to tell you this but taking the one thing someone has been raised to believe is all that really matters about them away?#that's gonna end in a suicide#there is no universe where taking azula's bending away is a remotely good idea#for starters it doesn't make her less dangerous so even if she somehow survives the psychological trauma all you've done is make her angry#and more unstable#neither of which is beneficial to anybody except ozai#and no banishing her to the earth kingdom isn't going to work either they know what she looks like now#i'd say banish her to one of the water tribes but the north sucks and the south doesn't have the resources to stop her if she tries anythin#and obviously putting her in an asylum doesn't work bc you only do that if your goal is to just not have to look at them anymore#so either invent therapy or have toph take her on a fieldtrip bc those are the only options i can think of that would minimize the bloodshe#also i'm pretty sure the actual worst thing she did was suggest to her dad that he commit genocide which he was probably going to do anyway#also if you're punishing her for ba sing se you better be punishing mai and ty lee too. and none of them as much as long feng#also also she gets to punch anyone who tries to tell her that her anger at any member of her family isn't 100% justified#yes even zuko#just bc he was on the right side of things doesn't mean she can't be mad at him about stuff#also if anyone wants to get into the super specific bits of why people are mad at azula: zuko vs property damage lawsuits
my friend had A Thought on facebook and I thought you all should see it
(snicker)
Accurate.
“Florida man murders groom on wedding day while impersonating bride, says he was just trying to retrieve personal property”
"florida man retrieves woman's stolen necklace by turning into a seal; claims thief turned into a seal first"
what did the pmd devs mean by this
i mean. he never bothers to ask for help from literally anyone, never even tries to explain what's actually happening until it's way to late, and just sorta acts like he's this one man super team despite having literally never worked alone prior to coming back in time, so...

i missed voting in this but i'm so proud of y'all
Alright.
You ready for a hard 'tag your oc' challenge?
Tag an oc who doesn't have childhood trauma. At all. Who's family is still alive.
I'll wait.
#i have a handful but the majority of them are extremely minor characters who i've never bothered fleshing out that far#the only exception i can think of is cherry#she's a bnha oc that actually probably DID have some kinda backstory when i first made her but that was like a bajillion years ago#and so that story is lost to me as are the other ocs in her group most of whom i don't even remember the names of#so now her backstory is basically that one day she just decided to put on a costume and smack the shit out of people#you don't even have to pay her she does it for free#her parents are fine they just wish she'd get a job and have like a steady income and food supply and roof to sleep under#i'm probably never going to use her for anything bc the only part of her that i can remember that DOESN'T need o be completely redesigned#is the lower half of her face#so. yeah
once you hit adulthood a day will come when you’re suddenly like VEGETABLES 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 and it never goes away

Ever since I got a job as a security guard I can’t take heist movies seriously anymore.
kansascity-marshwiggle
Why is that?
Accurate heist movie: The Team is sneaking into a high security facility. An alarm is triggered, they freeze, prepared to knock out whoever responds to the alarm. It takes 40 minutes for someone to respond. When they finally do show up, they shuffle along, annoyed, arms full of 16 bags of pretzels for some reason, and reset the alarm without bothering to check their surroundings. They report that the alarm went off in error. Security control starts a fight about the correct designation of the door. The guard announces that they’re leaving the alarm key in the alarm because it’s always going off for no reason. No one challenges them on this. They shuffle away, leaving an alarm key and several bags of pretzels behind.
The Team knocks out a security guard and steals their radio. The team mimic can perfectly replicate the knocked out guard’s voice. They get caught because they pronounced the name of the company correctly.
The Team disables an alarm. The only way to do this is to rip it out of the wall and disassemble it until it physically can’t make noise anymore. This very loud process is clearly heard by the posted security guard nearby, who rolls their eyes and text their supervisor that the logistics contractors are fooling with the alarms again.
The Team breaks into the facility at night. There they meet a single security guard who is chanting potential names for NPCs in their DnD campaign out loud while they do their patrols. They encounter a fire extinguisher. They pause in their chanting to check that it is properly charged and to apply a sticker that reads, “Anal use only”. This guy is disgustingly good at their job. There’s no way around it, they’re going to catch you. And you’re going to have to deal with the fact that you’ve been had by someone who has a supply of stickers that say “Anal use only” and who unironically wanted to name their NPC shopkeep Mammogrammus.
The Team attempts to bribe a security guard. This is its own post but know there’s no way in hell that would work.
The Team breaks into the high security room and disables all the alarms. Security control sends several guards to investigate why there are no alarms going off.
The Team attempts to break into the high security room but can’t because it’s randomly decided not to let anyone at all in today.
The Team steals a keycard with “””””unlimited””””” access to the facility and gets caught because the computer system that manages keycards randomly revokes access for no reason.
The Team walks past a security guard in broad daylight wearing T-shirts that say, “We are here to rob you”. The security guard does nothing, having seen several people in logistics wearing that exact shirt two days prior.
We've all gotten just a bit too comfortable being jerks to strangers on the internet I think
So I've hidden this reply, both because it's obnoxious and because I don't want the person who wrote it being harassed for it, but I need you to understand: I don't know you. We are not friends. This is not fun or cute, we are not sharing a charming joke together. You are just being an asshole.
literally that is what the post is about, I am saying people should be less eager to jump on any chance to be snarky and rude to total strangers on the internet
#this is the equivalent of someone saying ''hey maybe we shouldn't just randomly punch people in the face''#and then getting swarmed by people trying to punch them in the face and claiming they were asking for it#like yeah some people will be fine with it but a lot of people are going to rightfully say ''wow ur a jerk'' and not talk to you again
