mako isn’t particularly one of my favorites and i like making fun of him just for shits and giggles but nobody can make me genuinely hate him. barely anyone in this fandom understands his character and why he is the way he is
the entire comic could have been compete and utter shit and i still would have loved it specially for this scene
this is literally everything i needed and wanted from a mako comic and they absolutely delivered
I feel like this should probably be considered.
(this being like. the actual writer of Ashes of the Academy.) Absolutely you can criticize Bryke and their handling of Azula's arc in ATLA all you want, but the parasocial "the writers have it out for us specifically" is a little bit over the top.
While I still understand the frustration with Azula's (lack of) arc and handling, I think that acting like everything is shade thrown against us and harassing the writer over something like this is not fair. The ATLA fandom has really been treating the writers (especially the smaller ones, because they are more reachable than Bryke) like shit lately, and it sounds kind of similar to the author of Penquan Island getting harassed because she didn't center Korrasami. I think it is important to consider the perspective of the different characters the writer is, well, writing, and stop acting like that makes someone irredeemable.
Captain: Princess, I'm afraid that the tides will not allow us to pull in before nightfall.
Azula: Do the tides command this ship?
The captain thinking about what happened at the North Pole:
my gosh im so excited im gonna piss my pants ok
Happy Ashes of the Academy Eve to all who celebrate
[Judgement intensifies]
When Unalaq referred to himself as a “Dark Avatar” this is all I could think of.
I am very clearly deranged I simply couldn't not post this
so sick of “the comics didn’t happen!” “i don’t consider them canon!” grow up omd yeah they weren’t perfect but so fucking what 🤦♀️
Don't play with maiko fans. They..... hate their own ship, apparently?
sokka: woah zuko you look awful
zuko: yeah, aang kept me up all night
sokka: oh, i bet he did ;)
*last night*
aang, rolling over: do you think fish have feelings
zuko: aang it's 3am
i cant wait to see my favorite divorced couple get back together for the kids
TIL that zuko canonically took mai out on a romantic date to a picnic on the burial site of his ancestors and i think that’s honestly the most on brand thing ever
