I like that the Omatikaya clan are cats in spirit and appearance, and the Metkayina clan... I think they're sharks, don't mind me ehh. And I love this cat/fish dynamic between Aonunete. Yeah yeah, Neteyam is a good big brother and lalala, but he's got fangs, guys. And not only anatomically. He's a copy of his parents, omg. And Ao'nung too. But if Neteyam inherited from his parents the freedom and wildness of the forest spirit, balanced by duty and responsibility for family members, Ao'nung received from Tonowari and Ronal, the same children of the sea as himself, the main property of water — variability. Yes, he's a bully and a bad boy at first, but we all know that's just immature initial behavior inspired by Ronal's prejudice against the Sullys, right? In fact, if you look at Ao'nung, he looks like water. He's often just there as a curious observer, his surface calm as the sea, but it can also ripple in different situations — from playfulness, danger, or other reasons. I don't like it when fics portray Ao'nung as a hypermasculine bully and Neteyam as fragile, dependent, and needy, when in reality Neteyam is a copy of his mother (and father, bUT-), while Ao'nung is more like a Tonowari. Guys, basically we have a responsible but wild boy and a calm boy who is in love with the first one and walks around with a stupid grin, for which he will get hit in the back of the head.
