zukka au where aunt wu looks straight at sokka and instead of telling him that his future is full of pain and anguish caused by his own hand, she tells him that he’s going to marry the fire lord and sokka is like “EXCUSE ME?”
Thank you to @.devinzain on Twitter for bringing these to the fandom!

Hey, so one alternative to testosterone injections I don't see talked about nearly enough is pellets. I see a lot about topical testosterone, but it's not always super viable for a lot of us. I was on the patch for several months and I keep a small stock of patches in case I'm not able to get my pellets on time, but they always gave me horrific rashes and I sweat so much they usually fall off after a couple of hours. And the gel risks being transferred to pets and kids and such.
Pellets do involve needles, but you aren't going to see them. You're usually lying on your stomach while the doctor implants them in your ass or upper thigh. If you have a good doctor, they'll tell you what they're doing or have a distracting conversation depending on what you need.
And they're great if you're like me and remembering your meds is difficult. You go to the doctor once every three months, you then take it easy for a day or two so the incision can heal, and then you just get to forget about it until it's time for another dose. Because it's a steady slow release over the course of a few months, you don't really get peaks and slumps the way you would with other doses (unless you're on the wrong dose or timetable, but that's something you figure out with your doctor through blood tests and the like).
It's not just an alternative to injections, it's just super convenient. And depending on your health insurance, it may be cheaper than other methods too. (I'm on MassHealth, meaning all medications have a $3.75 copay. But because it's an in-office procedure I'm able to waive that copay and get my hormones for free, no questions asked.)
It's also super easy to microdose if that's what you want to do because of the fact that they're a bunch of small-dose pellets rather than a single implant. And there's no removal either - they just dissolve under your skin to release the testosterone.
I feel like more transmascs need to be aware of the multitude of HRT options available to us because we're constantly being told about injections and occasionally gel or patches and that's it.
