I feel like Klingons would be deeply divided on Zuko's backstory.
Because, on one hand they would be cheering Zuko for the inciting incident. A general proposing to sacrifice fresh recruits in a suicidal assault while the veterans strike from behind seems like the sort of thing honorable Klingons would despise, so they'd cheer on Zuko calling him out, and nod approvingly at the idea of settling this with an Agni-Kai. I think the divide would be over WHY Zuko refused to fight Ozai in the Agni-Kai. If Zuko refused to fight because he was afraid to fight his father and was trying to surrender, then that was an act of Cowardice, and Zuko had indeed shamed himself. There's no shame in losing to a superior opponent, so backing down because you face a stronger foe than anticipated is cowardly, especially in a formal duel of honor. However, from another perspective, I feel like some Klingons would feel that Ozai was so deeply out of line interfering in the duel at all that Zuko can be forgiven for not wanting to fight his father, who he had no quarrel with. If Zuko tried to back out to avoid raising a hand against his father and ruler, out of propriety rather than fear, then that's another story.
I think most Klingons would regard Zuko as having been within his rights to challenge his superior, but would consider the matter to have been adequately settled by honourable combat. I don't think that they would have much sympathy for the rest of Zuko's arc.
I feel like engaging a child in combat and horrifically wounding him just because he can wouldn’t be seen as an honorable defeat. It was a blow designed to weaken and shame a very correct kid solely due to Ozai’s pride. It’s like the newest youngest member of a Klingon crew challenging the captain. If the captain forces him to fight to the death only to half blind him and leave him alive to be shamed and exiled? That’s dishonor. The Agni Kai was never about honor. It was about a father who wanted to hurt his son so bad he’d never recover. What honor could be had from that?
I feel like the most relevant thing is that Zuko didn't challenge Ozai. Zuko challenged the general, and there was never any honorable combat between Zuko and the General to "Settle" the affair. It would be like a new crewmember challenging a lieutenant, only for the Captain to step in and fight on the Lieutenant's behalf, half-blinding the crewmember when he refused to fight the captain. Rather than fight, Zuko fell to his knees and begged, that's textbook dishonorable behavior to a Klingon. But the argument could easily be made that honor went out the window when Ozai stepped in. Like, Obviously Ozai is SUPER dishonorable for, among other things 1) Challenging a child. Zuko insulted the General. Ozai took that as an insult against himself and chose to step in, but I'm pretty sure by Klingon Logic Ozai is effectively Challenging Zuko here. Klingon's respect the rights of people to challenge their superiors, so Ozai's argument that a challenge against his general was a challenge against himself wouldn't hold any water. 2) Interfering in a dispute (Zuko vs The General) that did not involve him, effectively depriving both parties of the chance to prove themselves and settle the dispute (Klingons would instantly respect the tradition of the Agni-Kai. That's basically what Klingons themselves would do if they had Firebending.)
3) Maiming Zuko after Zuko surrendered (there's no Honor in that). The debate would be whether Zuko would have been compelled by honor to try to fight anyway (Never back down from a fight), or whether trying to get out of the fight became acceptable once Ozai stepped in for the General, because at that point Zuko wasn't engaging in a duel of Honor, he was just accepting a beatdown from his father and fire lord.
Would Quark and D'Kor's "duel" in DS9 suggest anything about how the duel might be viewed?
Perhaps. Quark arrives to the duel knowing that he would be easily defeated and willingly faces certain death, D'Kor dishonors himself by being willing to strike down a defenseless opponent. This is Highly Honorable behavior by Quark, because he showed courage, not backing down against a superior opponent and willingly facing death. The big difference is that while Quark faced his death courageously, Zuko begged for mercy and tried to back out of the fight. Remember, Zuko wasn't scarred in a FIGHT with Ozai, he tried to back out, and Ozai scarred and banished him as punishment for REFUSING to fight. If we assume the nameless general was also a master Firebender (Not unreasonable, most fire nation officers seem to be), and Zuko (A child, and skilled but not a firebending prodigy like Azula) showed up willing to fight him, then Zuko has already done the Honorable thing, arrived at the duel fully willing to face a thrashing by a superior opponent. That would indicate that his behavior was due to the thought of facing his father specifically, not just because he was suddenly in a fight he couldn't win.
So... Firstly, it feels you are all assuming Worf's Klingon Honor is the norm. It really isn't. Worf is using a very human honor code, and klingons... aren't human.
The rules for how and when a Klingon can and should challenge a superior are loose and not really clear. What is clear that from TNG onward, there is a lot of Klingon Masculinity is tied into the idea of not only being a mighty warrior but proving it. It also extends beyond generations; your fathers and sons are as responsible as you are for your honor as well you for theirs in turn. And does not end in death; see all of Worf's subplots. And you must not only prove you are a mighty warrior but be one for your house.
Chilvary or Bashido have less to do with how Klingons tackle honor and more with things they will pay lip service to. Accepting a Challenge from a weaker opponent is a Warrior's thing. After all a warrior does not refuse a fight. Taking on a seemingly impossible challenge? That is the stuff of Khalas! Wasting more effort than is needed to defeat an opponent, a warrior seeks challenges, not kick dogs, but death is preferable to dishonor and there is more honor in dying than living with shame and a warrior should be willing to fight to the death for honor is more important. See why Worf ego killed his own brother.
Hence the Contradictions of Quarks duel; Quark being honorable for facing death, D'Kor should be able to handle a Ferengi without effort. Course when Quark wins then proves his strength by delivering solid financial advice even Gowron is impressed. Stuff of legend, honorable. So the break down;
Zuko challenging a general for a bad plan that the general won't fight for would indeed be salutated. A cowardly dog willing to throw away the warriors of the Empire in a plan he is unwilling to lead himself? Worst kind of P'takh, Zuko is absolutely within his Rights as a Warrior to call a spade a spade and demand the general's life or honor.
The General not challenging Ozai to take his place dishonorable. What kind of warrior cannot fight a child? A lousy one. Worst Zuko dishonored him in front of his peers, how can they ever respect him for being unable to fight his own battles.
Ozai for getting involved in his inferiors' honorable battles, Worf challenges and kills Gowron over this. It is dishonorable but within the rights of the Superior however, it is a challenging offensive and the general should have challenged for his right to defend himself personally as a good warrior should.
This also helps us point to the part where to judge Zuko's actions. Rember Worf is adopted by Martok into the house of Martok which when Gowron snubs and steals the honor of leading battle Worf is within his honor-bound rights to challenge the "Klingon King" for dishonoring his house, despite the differences in rank between the honor of Empire, House and Personal transcend titles or rank.
So, Zuko refuses to fight the battle he came to fight; dishonor. Worst, he starts begging for forgiveness for choosing to be a warrior. As a warrior, Zuko should have accepted his father's duel and fought him to prove his honor. By refusing to fight, he shames his house as well as himself.
Crippling Zuko; this P'takh just begged like a Ha'DIbaH. Zuko insulted his house, father, and Empire by doing the right thing and then refusing when it got hard. Ozai should have killed Zuko for that. See "Martok" killing his own son when Worf calls out his son's shameful action in Quark's and losing the bar fight to a Starfleet officer. Ozai however cannot kill his only hire, Klingons are still patriarchal as all get out, depending on who is writing them.
I think this is what would be the dividing line for Klingons; Zuko has been dishonored and behaved dishonorably during a moment of honorable battle, but his house and his own father have acted with no Honor as well, for not challenging his father and agreeing to the impossible task of finding the Avatar there would a sharp line.
Some would see that Zuko is fulfilling his role in his house's honor to restore the honor lost by the collective actions forsaking personal honor for house honor and completing a legendary task that might seem impossible.
Others would see Zuko behaving cowardly and accepting the great shame put on him by his own house and father rather than restoring that honor with blood and fire, leaving his house honor as stained as his own.
Yall over here doing Kahlass the Unforgettable proud.
atla just so happened to write one of the most insane and complex brother sister relationships in all of television, and yet for some reason everyone focused on zuko and azula instead, even though they are basically just normal siblings, and as such not even that interesting ..
their dynamic is more fraught and tragic than you could ever comprehend……
this☝️ is just a typical sibling interaction
katara and sokka are what happens when you are your brother’s mother and your brother also tries to be your father. you love them, you hate them, you’re half of them, you can’t stand them, you look after them, they keep you safe.
azula and zuko are both just gifted kid burnouts with a dad that only loves the winner.

Analysis of how (some) deaths in the among us show mirror actual among us gameplay
(sort of)
White - a navigation kill is a common early game kill to get away with. At the begginning of a game, players often end up in groups and a large amount of people will go in a single direction, usually down or right side(right side being where nav is) staying behind the group to kill off a straggler is a good way to snag a kill that will take a while for crew to find, because the people who already went with the group are done with their 1 parter tasks and wont be coming back until/if they get 2 parter tasks that lead there.
I also like the detail of White's kill having them be slashed in half, the first killing being the classic death is fun.
Blue - Medbay kill, also a common early game kill to get away with. Both tasks in medbay are at the very bottom of the large room meaning crew wont see anyone in there when passing by, so snagging a kill of someone on the scanner or vial task and venting into electrical or security is usually clean and free of suspicion early game.
Lime & Orange - Imposter getting caught from reactor kill. The reactor kill being one that gets an imposter caught makes a lot of sense, because there are 2 hallways that are blocked off from the room's field of vision, an imposter might think they're alone and boom someone walks out of one of those halls and sees them slice! not to mention it's across cams, so someone on cams might see 2 people going together and get off to investigate.
Also Orange giving up after getting caught here is so real
o2 sabotage - not a kill, but since in game lights and o2 can't be sabotaged at the same time, I thought I'd give it an extra spot. During the mid to late game, players are usually heavily grouped, making it very difficult for a solo imposter to get kills. o2 is a sabotage that forces crew to separate, while killing on oxygen might be a bit risky, it's common for the crew that separated during the sabotage to stay separated.
Cyan & Yellow- Electrical kill with lights off getting someone wrongfully ejected. Electrical is notorious for being the most dangerous place on Skeld, it's where a lot of covert kills happen because there's 4 potential tasks in there, a vent, and your field of vision is cut off. And sometimes kills happen when 2 crew are in there, leading players to thinking the surviving crew member is the killer.
Welllll actually, this explanation is for how that type of conclusion gets drawn in game- but in the show? this vote is actually really stupid. This is an accusation of a self report, in electrical, when there are 3 unaccounted for players..
if a player does a solo kill in electrical, they probably wouldn't self report there, and even if they did there's not really any sound evidence to vote someone out on. of course, this is also realistic because the average public among us lobby would vote someone out for doing a weird wiggle. (also black wouldn't be able to clear themselves like that with the vents obviously, but I am thinking of black just going "I promise I can't vent, I'll prove it" and then everyone agrees and skips, Black just walks over the vent and does nothing, and another meeting gets called and everyone agrees that's proof.)
the Brown kill happens in a room that's not in the game so there's no comparison there.
Black - bit of a stretch in terms of matching gameplay, but storage being a place that they escape the imposter from makes sense, the crates in the center of the room make it easy to weave around- and then they run to cafeteria, which would normally be where the button is but that doesn't exist here so that's that.
Green - Fumbles the W because they went for style points. really funny
I got lazy at the end :') I wrote most of this earlier and had a feeling I would never finish it if I didn't continue now. though to be fair to me the final kills don't really map out with the game at all.
Time loop fic with lime as the protagonist. Very little changes cause they’re already fucking nuts, but now they’re also throwing handfuls of salt at Blue every ten minutes and no one knows why
Fear of intimacy small comic ☺️
I feel like Blue would definitely help out Lime with their fear of intimacy….I like to imagine this type of scenario happening. Then thinking about the Lime and Blue medscan scenario where Blue gently holds Lime’s hand…

I finally watched the among us show yayyyyy have some blime stuff jumps for joy
THIS WAS THE MOMENT GREEN PLANTED THE MISSING SCAN IN YELLOW'S BACKPACK????
And I LOVE this moment, the little blink-and-you'll-miss-it foreshadowing that Yellow really was innocent BCOS THEY TOUCHED THE SALT AND GREEN DIDN'T.
Transgender flag but it's colorpicked from Cyan's shirt, which is literally just the pattern of the trans flag (color order and everything) with some extra on either side.
not gonna lie i increasingly just find myself thinking... what are single disabled people supposed to do? basically everything assumes that either a) you have never been independent and are fully reliant on caregivers, whether this is parents or a paid carer that you are somehow funding, or b) you have a partner who can look after you, drive you to appointments, pick you up after you've had sedation, advocate for you, be your proxy, do the housework when you're sick, push your wheelchair, be your companion when travelling (e.g. handle the luggage if you're using a wheelchair), etc
and like. first of all even for people with partners that's assuming they're abled themselves and can handle all that. you can't assume that. secondly: what about people who are single, who live alone, who will probably always do so
"get someone to keep an eye on you when you start this new medication" who. "don't over exert yourself" nobody else is going to do the tasks. "this can be a walker or a transit wheelchair so your partner can push you when you get tired" my what
like it's not a coincidence that amatonormativity discussions started / developed in care contexts because it is so often the assumption that intimate partners will fill these needs. but I feel like this is often discussed in the context of "and this is too much to ask and puts too much unpaid labour on the unqualified partner" which is not untrue and needs discussing but like. also. what about people are single, independent adults who are neither emotionally nor geographically close to their siblings etc and are not Disabled Enough to have a paid carer (a group that grows as resources shrink). like are they just fucked then. they're on their own. punishment for failing to be enough of an adult to couple up.

hey so you were in a financial bind a few months(?) ago, how are you doing now? i worry
Doing a lot better now. Of course, "a lot better" is relative but I'm not gonna be running out of money any time soon.
do you live in seattle (the american city)?
yes
no
please reblog to get this poll out of my bubble, i want reach
so ive been meaning to do this poll for a while because my hypothesis is that seattle is the most Tumblr city, likely in the entire world. tumblr has a huge american majority userbase obviously, but just for comparison going forward, only 0.22% of the american population lives in seattle. as of this reblog, this poll is showing 4% of respondents are seattleites. given, this isnt scientific at all, because my blog just has a lot of seattle connections and seattle followers, but it's still an impressive bias
Well now I'm curious
Do you live in Portland, OR? (the american city)
Yes
No
