ughh guys just have to reiterate how magnificent it is that zuko’s red scar represents the red dragon and aang’s blue arrows represent the blue dragon .. they’re always carrying their spirit with them 😭
and also that they were judged by the opposite dragon
this ep is perfection and no matter how long ago i knew these things they still run me over when i rethink abt them
"the teenager in the iceberg"- an in progress kataang multichapter au where aang was frozen at age sixteen, and katara falls first, and aang falls harder<3
"well, my (not-yet) boyfriend's in a band"- a atla au where the gaang is in an indie band, and aang ends up writing a love song that reveals how he feels about katara
"i'm no longer a kid, and everything has changed"- fills in the space between the end of season two and the beginning of season three, where katara spends weeks healing aang and picking up the pieces after his injury
"can you see me using everything to hold back?"- where the common zutara trope of zuko rescuing katara from a controlling relationship with aang is flipped on its head until it becomes kataang<3
"my heart is yours, it's you that i hold on to"- where katara and aang talk after saving the world, work through all their miscommunications, and realize the extent of their feelings for one another
"shining down on me"- a short & bittersweet sokka x yue fic inspired by mitski (which i swear has a happy ending)
"the avatar's adventures in parenting"- where aang is the good dad i believe he should be!!!
"i'm trying to tell you something, something that i already said"- where katara speaks to each member of the gaang individually and finds out that aang has been head over heels with her for years and no one ever bothered telling her!!
if any of these speak to you, they can all be found on my ao3 account:)<3 happy reading!!!
2.09 — Bitter Work || 3.12 — The Western Air Temple
