Late Kyoshi week day 6

I wasn’t gonna participate at all since I found out about the event literally a few days before so I couldn’t plan anything, but here’s a little something for the animal companion prompt.

excerpt from my current long-form Kyoshi WIP: The Light of Kyoshi

Some more doodles of my Fox Spirit AU: Side B, cause I don’t think y’all understand -- Sokka being spirit-touched and Still An Atheist is SO FUCKING FUNNY TO ME

(+ Design Doodles and More Info under the cut)

✨ CONTRIBUTOR SPOTLIGHT ✨

Oh look at this ! A surprising entry - Starsinmytea, our actual last writer we will be introducing who worked on the guidebook to write descriptions for the cards!

✨ Twitter (StarsinmyT) //  AO3 (StarsinmyTea)

✨ Why do you like AtLA?

The characters are so relatable and fleshed out! The show portrays many ways that people can react to pride, shame, anger, loss. These are such human experiences that everyone faces, and I love the sense of connection that I get from the show.

✨ What character and card resonate with you? Why?

Iroh is so good!!! I rewatched Iroh's portion of "The Tales of Ba Sing Se" episode yesterday and cried so hard??? He lost so much, but instead of responding with hatred he dedicated himself every day to growing more kind and generous toward all people, and like, wow. What a man.

✨ Which card is your favorite and why?

The Star is probably my favorite card! Finding my way back to hope reminds me that humans are capable of so much good. To me, feeling inspired to grow and understand myself/others more deeply is one of the best parts of life!

✨ What book/text would you want to read the most? Or, talk about a book/text you’ve read or will read and what it means to you:

I adore The Raven Cycle series by Maggie Stiefvater. Her writing style is imaginative and fun to read! The main characters are a band of friends who are deeply loyal to each other (gotta get me some of that found family!) and it was the first series I'd ever read that had a gay couple with fully fleshed out characters who didn't die lol

Kyoshi and her animal companion!

✨ CONTRIBUTOR SPOTLIGHT ✨

Last but not least, please welcome Estelle, who also worked on the guidebook to write descriptions for the cards!

✨ Why do you like AtLA?

I'm generally drawn to fantasy genres, and AtLA hits close to home with bending the elements.

✨ What character and card resonate with you? Why?

I love Suki's spirit - her personality makes me want to fight alongside her, and I like her character design as well! If I were to choose a favorite card in a general sense, it'd probably be the Moon; it symbolizes deception and illusion, which are themes that I enjoy playing with when writing. The Sun card is also a close second because of it's upright terms - happiness, success, vitality.
