If the gaang were suddenly only able to discover information via the atla equivalent of tiktok/twitter, how long would it take for Sokka to kill himself?
incidentally, this is the very question addressed in the season one episode “the fortuneteller,” and the answer is as follows: if they had stayed there for longer than a single day, he would’ve jumped into the mouth of that active volcano without hesitation.

I'm rewatching Atla and I realized I have zero idea what I am supposed to take away from the fortune teller episode. Like is she legit or a scammer? Because all her fortunes came true through the characters actions like in that's so raven. Sokka actually reminds me of Raven because in trying to prove aunt wu wrong he inadvertently shows that her fortune was right which I believe the villagers pointed out at the end of the episode.
But then the show seems to contradict and prove you can write your own destiny. But it also shows that even pass the episode all aunt wu said was true, like Sokka getting in his own way a lot or Katara ending up with a powerful bender and she is still kicking in legend of Korra.
Also other question do you think Zuko would believe in aunt wu like Katara or be a sceptic like Sokka. Because he seems to believe in destiny and things being pre-planned but I've seen people say he would be a skeptic but I think it depends on when Zuko meets her.
Sorry if this is a lot. I should probably just write it off as comedic and move on.
I think the message we are supposed to get is that we make our own destiny, which sometimes means that we create a self-fulfilling prophecy. That message is kinda muddled because the creators wanted to also use it to promote KA, and there are a lot of excellent zutara metas out there on that already so I won't rehash that. I'll just say that I really dislike the way the episode takes advantage of Katara's faith by portraying her as silly for believing in destiny - unless it's about Aang, that is.
I think the question of what Zuko would believe is more interesting, and I agree that it depends on where he is in his arc. Yes, he talks a lot about destiny, especially early on, but if book one Zuko met Aunt Wu, he probably would only listen if she told him things he wanted to hear, anything that could reaffirm what he already believed about his destiny being to capture Aang and return to the Fire Nation as Ozai's son and heir. I imagine that if she told him something that contradicted that, he would absolutely refuse to believe it, the way he refused to believe Iroh when he tried to tell him the truth about Ozai and his mission.
Book two Zuko I think might be kind of interesting. If Zuko ran into Aunt Wu during his Zuko Alone era, for example, he might be more interested in hearing what she had to say. Book two Zuko is searching for inner guidance and much more open to spiritual road signs.
Book 3 Zuko would probably not be interested, honestly. Zuko in book 3 spends a lot of time confused, but he's not looking for guidance from outside himself anymore. He's looking inward. He can't reconcile who he is with who he wants to be, and that's his big crisis. He's all about being true to himself, and no one else is going to tell him what his destiny is. And I think that remains true post canon. I do think Zuko comes out of the series more spiritually open and aware, but I think as a character he is very centered on reconciling his actions with his own beliefs, so I can't see him looking to someone else for guidance on his future.

And I'm done!
Who waited for Ty Lee? There she is! I thought about Ta Min's bridal hairdo but her gown is mostly white and yellow. Definitely should have drawn her in the yellow segment 'cause I am a nitpicker and I wanted braids. Well, what's done is done. Aunt Wu is - and looks - great.
Why don't they braid their hair more often in the Fire Nation? They should. Especially men. No wonder I don't like their style.
If you feel like it you can support me on my Ko-fi.

Kya, throwing stuff out her locker: Where is it?!
Ursa: Uh looking for something?
Kya: Yes! Do you have it?
Ursa: You mean right here in my pocket?
Kya: Yes!
Ursa: No I'm just messing with you. I have no idea what we're talking about.
Kya: Ugh! I just spent the last 10 minutes ripping apart my locker for a 5 dollar bill I know I left in there!
Ursa: Hey it's just 5 dollars. No big deal.
Kya: It's a huge deal! I'm broke. I need money!
Ursa: For what?
Kya: Lots of things. Clothes, make up, special cheese, Painted Lady collectable figurines-
Ursa: Wait, why do you need special cheese?
Kya: You know I don't like regular cheese!
Ursa: Okay wanna make some money?
Kya: Yes! Maybe? How???
Ursa: Cactus juice powder.
Kya: *gasps*
Ursa: I'm kidding! My part time job at the Yogurt Joint is launching a new theme called Frozen Berry balls and my boss is looking for someone to work this Saturday. You know, hand out free samples and get people pumped up.
Kya: I can get people pumped up for Berry Balls!
Ursa: So you're in?

Ursa: She's in!
Kya: But wait.
Ursa: She waits!
Kya: We have to perform at the concert this Saturday.
Ursa: No problem. We'll be done by 8 and ready for the show at 9.
Kya: Ok! Tell your boss they got themselves a Berry Ball girl!

[At the Yogurt Joint]
Kya, sneaking up on Ursa working at the counter: Hey kid where's my stupid yogurt?!
Ursa: Hey what's up little coworker!
Kya: Just ready to get start!
Ursa: Great. Aunt Wu will be here soon.
Kya, eating the toppings: Mmm what's this?
Ursa: Coconut shavings.
Kya: And this?
Ursa: Cookie crumbs.
Kya: Ohh! And what's this white stuff?
Ursa: That's what we use to clean the counter!
Kya: *chokes*
Aunt Wu: Hello ladies.... What's she doing?
Ursa: Uh, she ate some counter cleanser and now she's spitting it out.
Kya, still choking: Nice... to meet... you...
Aunt Wu: In the future, I'd appreciate if you don't choke and gag in front of the costumers.
Ursa: It's her first time eating cleanser.
Aunt Wu: Regardless, Kya today you will be giving away 1000 Berry Balls to mall costumers as they pass by. *sets up trays*
Kya: Why do they have green afros?
Aunt Wu: That's green cotton candy.
Ursa: What flavor is that?
Aunt Wu: Green.
Kya, under her breath: Cactus juice...
Aunt Wu: Now go put on your costume.
Kya: Uh sure thing. *gives Ursa a confused look*
Ursa: *shrugs*
___
Kya: *Walks out wearing a puffy green costume with a top hat*
Aunt Wu: Wonderful! What do you think Ursa dear?
Ursa: Uh...
Kya: *shakes head*
Ursa: Well, don't you think it's a bit... hideous?
Aunt Wu: How dare you! I designed it myself!
Ursa: Oh! I...um...
Kya: See these days teens say hideous when something's awesome.
Ursa: Yes like bad means good.
Aunt Wu: Oh. I see.
Aunt Wu: Ah, here come my niece. She just got braces so everyone be nice.
June: Hi Auntie.
Aunt Wu: Hello dear. How was the dentist?
June: Fine I guess. Do they look weird?
Aunt Wu: You look hideous! Don't you two think so? *winks at Kya and Ursa*
Kya, cringing: Y-Yep.
Ursa: Sure do...
June: *Cries*
Aunt Wu, leading her away: Oh sweetie. Let's go buy you some new pants.
Ursa: Well now that we've destroyed a young girl's self esteem-
Kya, sighing: Guess it's time to hand out these berry balls. 1000 to go!
Ursa, finger guns: 1000 to go!
Kya: Hey kids! Yogurt is offering free berry ball samples! Take as many as you want!
Kid: They look disgusting!
Other kid: And so do you!
Kya: *looks at Ursa shocked*
Ursa: 1000 to go!
[Later]
Ursa: If we don't leave now, we'll miss the concert.
Kya: No problem *shows empty tray* Ta-dah!
Ursa: You got rid of all 1000 berry balls?!
Kya: Yep!
Ursa: Did you throw them away?
Kya: No. *glances around* They’re in my hat!
Ursa: In you hat?!
Kya: Yeah! Let's go before-
Aunt Wu: Ladies! Oh did you give away all 1000 berry balls?
Kya: Yes ma'am.
Aunt Wu: Well done. Let me pay you now.
Kya: Oh you don't have to-
Aunt Wu, writing a check: I insist! You did your job and deserve payment.
*Berry balls start melting in Kya’s hat and running down her face*
Ursa and Kya: !!!
Ursa: *frantically wipes Kya's face behind Aunt Wu's back*
Aunt Wu: 100$ for Kya Kaji. Is that spelled with an i or an y...?
Ursa and Kya: *fake smile*
Aunt Wu: What’s happening?
Kya: Uh...
Ursa: She’s crying!
Kya, dramatic: I-I'm just so happy to be getting $100!
Ursa: That her mascara is running!
Kya: *sobs*
Aunt Wu:
Aunt Wu: How much mascara are you wearing?!
Ursa: Oh my! I better take her to the mascara doctor asap! *picks Kya up and runs off*
Kya, still fake crying: My emotions!!!

Theory: Aunt Wu from ATLA is actually a minor fortune-telling spirit that decided to mess with some locals and it got too out of hand and now this spirit is telling people how many kids they’ll have for a living

A predestined match
Tumblr media
You were one of Toph's students and also one of her best friends. 
So when the Gaang decided to take a trip to Makapu Village for Aunt Wu to read Zuko, Suki and Toph's future, you were invited. 
You didn't have high expectations but you liked to laugh at Sokka. It was clear that he hated that village with all his heart.
You arrived in Makapu in the evening and camped in the forest, and the next morning you set off for Aunt Wu's house. 
She was happy to see Aang and Katara again and to meet the rest of you but she wasn't too happy to see Sokka again. 
You laughed seeing how much hatred the two looked at each other and accidentally bumped into someone.
 You apologized and helped the girl up from the floor. 
You looked at each other blushing but were interrupted by Suki who was impatient to know her future.
While Aunt Wu was reading Suki's future, Meng brought you snacks. She congratulated Aang and Katara on their new relationship and winked at Aang. Aang blushed and Sokka chuckled. 
You, Toph and Zuko started talking about superstitions and the supernatural. Although Zuko fully believed that there were signs foreshadowing certain events, you and Toph were skeptical. 
your debate was interrupted by Meng who complimented your big ears which made you blush.
 Your friends started to laugh heartily. 
You thanked the girl for the original compliment and complimented her hair. She blushed and started playing with her tails. 
You chuckled, in your defense the girl did seem cute. 
You invited her to sit next to you. 
While Aunt Wu was reading your friends' fortunes, you continued to talk to Meng.
Finally it was your turn. 
Aunt Wu said you picked the love bone. You threw it into the fire, and the fire rose up to near the roof, which worried you a little.
 Aunt Wu looked at the flames with a frown and told you that you recently met your future wife, that she is not a bender but has a gift given by the spirits. 
When you left the room, you noticed that Aang was helping Meng spy on you.
You rolled your eyes at their silly excuses. 
You looked at Meng with an evil grin and told her that a future fortune teller should be able to guess what's going on in the room without spying.
 And then it hit you. 
Meng had received the gift of fortune-telling from the spirits and you had met her today. 
Meng blushed and told you stammering that she knew it was you since she saw your ears. 
Aang ran off to tell the others and you asked her out trying to look disinterested.
Although I do not own the characters from avatar the last airbender, this work belongs to me! I sincerely hope you liked it. please rate it and leave a comment! follow me to see my next posts! Don’t forget that the request are open💖💖💨

Different take for Ursa:
Ikem and Kiyi do not exist. She changes her face but not at the cost of her memories. She finds her way to the white lotus, decides to hide there and even becomes a member. It's revealed that Aunt Wu is a member as well, she figures out Ursa's real identity but decides to keep her secret, and the two become friends.

aunt wu x the herbalist
okay ive seen this before and its funny in theory i love old lady yuri but also something about me is that i really love the herbalist like she has simply enraptured me ever since i was a little girl and so the thought of her being with aunt wu affronts me. although i do think there’s something kind of beautiful about a woman who seems totally crazy and like all of her advice is utterly batshit, who is in fact very wise and enlightened and sage and accurate in her diagnoses/prescriptions, and a woman who seems very legitimate as a figure of authority, but whose advice is utterly wack and is actually just making shit up as she goes along. i do think aunt wu is straight though

It’s funny that, outside the trio of Ozai, Iroh, and Zuko,* the only people who really seem to give a fuck about the idea of destiny are Aunt Wu and Katara.
*Are we sure Azula wasn’t adopted? Or maybe she just took after her mom here.
