You guys stay out of sight here while we go to the festival.

Oh shit

I love the hilarious "Zuko as the avatar" aus and all but guys

Guys.

Azula as the Avatar

Prodigy Azula. The one who firebending came so easily.

Now imagine Azula accidentally airbending or something

Imagine her journey going from the perfect fire nation princess that her dad wanted to being what he wants to destroy

Now imagine 13 year old Morally Righteous Even When It's Dangerous Zuko learning that his father wants to kill his little sister no matter how horrible Azula is to him

What I'm saying is imagine their ship ending up in the south pole because Iroh stole his niece and nephew and a ship and the three of them are the run from the fire nation

Imagine Azula hating everything about this but meets Katara and despite everything Azula finds herself bonding with water tribe girl because they're the same age and their moms are gone and their brothers are annoying af

Idk how but the brother and sister teams end up having to travel around the world and teach a very pissy Azula all four elements and how to care about other people

Maybe Sokka and Zuko make out in the background

Everyone: you should consider murder as an option

Aang: noooooo :(

Azula as the Avatar:

Everyone: maybe you should consider options besides murder

i want zuko sneaks down into the capitol, not to spy, not to make a scene, just to be near his people and see for himself how the changes he makes in the palace are affecting his citizens

i want zuko who visits the same pub every time and maybe the old bartender who’s father used to work in the palace recognizes him and doesn’t say a word

or maybe it’s the soldier who’s face is young and his eyes weary who’d seen the young prince on a balcony once before but stays silent because he’s there to drink alone and forget and what does it matter if some royal is tucked in the corner

i want zuko who misses the anonymity he had before when he was the banished prince. who just wants a few nights without table manners and stuffy nobles in heavy robes talking circles around him

more firelord zuko who treats every member of his household staff with the utmost respect. at first they’re wary of him, he doesn’t hold it against them- azula and ozai are frightening people.

so he’s patient. kind. he learns everyone’s name, and as the months and years go on he asks more about their lives. he knows he could demand and they’d tell him anything he wants to know. but this is zuko, he wants people to feel safe in this place (a place that was so often unsafe for him, he wants to bring life back into the palace) so he goes slow, never pushes. if they mention a child he asks their names, remembers them; when one of his serving staff mentions his son is sick zuko insists he take time to be with his child. the man thinks he’s being fired until zuko says he always wished to have his parents when he was sick. the mans job would be waiting for him when his son is well

i just want more firelord zuko content. more of my boy caring for his people long after the war is over. helping an entire nation heal and find peace, as well as dealing with the geopolitical aftermath of being the aggressor for 100 years of conflict.
