#I’m not saying grump stoic Zuko doesn’t have a place bc of course he does

[fanfic-gremlin-ft-trauma]

something that a lot of people don’t seem to understand about Zuko is that:

the guy’s a huge fucking dork. he’s such a goof. a silly guy even.

like when I read fics and some of them characterise him as being all ‘oh I’m so shy abt my bf like I’m gonna be all stoic and tsundere blah blah blah.’ are u kidding? did we watch the same show? like if we’re talking abt Canon Content™️ then,,, look at how he was around Mai??? he was so loving and adoring and goofy and smiley???

like listen, if him and Sokka were to actually date, he’d be such a lil goof about him. giggling kicking his feet under the covers blushing even. cuz this dude runs on Self Hatred so he’d b like: ‘pretty boy??? paying attention to m e ???’ n then he’d go and smile to himself and continue to be in post bf brushed my hand afterglow for like the whole day

#zuko #zukka #atla #character rant #like r u guys kidding me he’s so dumb abt his love interests #(affectionate) #I’m not saying grump stoic Zuko doesn’t have a place bc of course he does #like #that’s 90% of his mood for the show #I’m just saying when it comes to people that he’s Got It Bad For #he’s so giddy abt them
