lin has 100% fucked all three kataang siblings. both kya and bumi are aware of this, because they’re not totally oblivious, but poor tenzin still believes he’s the only one.

then, one day, tenzin suddenly has the epiphany during dinner (with his entire family around, including lin and both siblings), and has to try to stay calm while he realises what all the quips made by kya and bumi around him really meant.

Random TLOK Rant

warning: yes, this looks horrible. no, i do know grammar. yes, i can't bother to fix this mess. and yes, i'm probably not making sense. and no, i've never experienced this issue myself and i'm not claiming to an expert. these are just my two cents on the matter.

i think the creators of tlok really missed an opportunity to depict people with mixed races. like, it's weird how tenzin is the only one among aang and katara's kids who wears orange and kya is the only one who wears blue. honestly, i was sorta disappointed when i saw that their clothes matched their bending-colours and stereotypical ethnic colours. kya wears blue cuz she's a waterbender and she looks like her mom. tenzin wears orange cuz he's an airbender and he's not brown?? (don't know how else to put it). then there's bumi. why does he wear red for most of the time until harmonic convergence? why didn't he wear either of his parents' colours. speaking of which, why does he wear orange only after becoming an airbender. is identifying with your parent's culture without being a bender of their element forbidden in this universe? it stings worse after realising that the harmony-restoration-movement thing in the comics was against this sort of segregation. that people born into interracial families don't have just one race that they can identify with. all of this reminds of encanto, honestly. i once read this post (prolly on tumblr, lol) discussing the fact that pepa looks lighter-skinned and 'whiter' then either of her siblings. don't remember the middle but the concluding statement was that pepa is just as indigenous as her siblings, despite her genes making her look otherwise. back to tlok, tenzin is just as much southern water tribe as kya, kya is just as much air nomad and bumi is equally both. if there is gonna be any continuation of the avatar universe, i wanna see mixed characters struggling to balance both their parents' cultures despite inheriting one or neither of their bending.

I just finished Avatar: The Legend of Korra and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Really nice show and it's a a show definitely rewatch it in the future.

Korra was a pretty good main character and seeing her journey from pretty impulsive and hot-headed to more considerate and spiritual avatar was nice. Plus seeing her overcome her fears and past-traumas was really inspiring.

I really liked Mako a lot and wish he was utilised more (perhaps a closer look at his past since they talked about it a bit and also have him more involved in the conflicts going on). I mean he was definitely important and he grew as the show progressed, from simply being aloof (and cool) and kinda awkward in how he handled his relationships to moving past that and dedicating his life to Korra. Him risking his life to destroy Kuvira's mecha with his lightning was my favourite scene in the show (him beating Ming Hua is up there too). He really showed he's a person that can always be counted on in the face of danger. Bolin was also pretty charming too and even if he wasn't always funny, he was pleasant to watch and him learning lavabending was really cool. Mako and Bolin's relationship was my favourite in the show. I just loved their bond, Mako usually having faith in Bolin's capabilities and Bolin usually there to cheer up Mako when he's down. Plus I'm a sucker for a lot of relationships between brothers since I have an older brother I look up to quite a lot.

Tenzin was one of, if not, the best character on the show in my opinion. He didn't disappoint as Aang's son. His development was amazing too, we got to see him come to terms with the fact he was over-glorifying his father and ignoring the flaws in Aang's parenting and we saw him accept his inadequacies in regards to spirituality. He also had some great moments like his battle against Zaheer and the rest of the Red Lotus.

Zaheer was my favourite villain. I just found him the most compelling and him killing the Earth Queen while giving his speech was my favourite scene from him. Amon and Kuvira were great too. It was fitting that even if we didn't see a lot of arguments on the villains ideologies, we still saw the world change and Korra and the world take into consideration the grievances of the villains.

Overall, The Legend of Korra was a fitting sequel to the Last Airbender and even though I prefer the latter, I still thought Korra had a lot of really engaging and touching moments.

as much as i’d love to believe that all of tenzin’s need to rebuild the air nation is self inflicted, i don’t see a universe where aang wouldn’t have, possibly subconsciously, created or fed into that need.

rebuilding the air nation was the most important thing to aang, that was clear to everyone who knew him, especially his son, the only person who could actually help aang realise that dream. while it might never have been said explicitly, tenzin knew from a young age the only way he could have anyone like him other than his father in this world was to have children.

i do not think, in any way, aang (or katara) would have ever told tenzin he had to have children. but, i do think it was in some ways expected from him since he was young.

after tenzin and lin had been together for a while, assuming lin’s aversion to motherhood was known already, i do think aang would have changed his expectations and come to peace with tenzin being potentially the last ever airbender, but that process would have come with a lot of grief. tenzin would have already been two decades deep in the loneliness of being an airbender, and aware his father won’t live forever, and so would likely have always wanted children of his own throughout his relationship with lin.

on a related note, demonising pema for her relationship with tenzin is completely and utterly ridiculous. tenzin was probably telling the truth when he said he and lin’s relationship was spiralling downhill. of course he would find companionship and friendship with an acolyte engrossed in his culture (that he is now the last member of), and find himself drifting from someone he cares deeply for but is not after the same things in life as him. when pema talks to korra about her relationship with tenzin starting, of course she’s not going to bring up lin’s obsession with career, or aangs passing and the grief associated, or tenzin’s unending loneliness in the world, just that she saw tenzin’s relationship was going to end horribly no matter what and she cared about him. (EVERYONE WHO SPENT ANY TIME AROUND LIN AND TENZIN PROBABLY KNEW THEIR TIME WAS UP. THEY ARE BOTH EMOTIONAL PEOPLE. A STRAGGLING RELATIONSHIP AND MUTUAL UNHAPPINESS IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO SPOT).

anyways. it does not make aang a bad parent for hoping tenzin will bring more airbenders into the world. it does not make pema a homewrecker for dating a man after a messy (& very public) breakup.

thank you for coming to my ted talk.

ps. read inheriting the wind by acommondator on ao3 it is beautiful!!!!
