My last post except on AO3 (also my first fic--I am not considering it really done even though it's a one-shot, but it has lots of ideas I would like to expand on).

I was reading stuff on theforce.net and now I want an incredibly dark Anahiri fanfic diverging at the Edge of Victory duology where they both get shaped and end up brainwashed (but still into each other) and end up as an unstoppable Yuuzhan Vong strike team that makes it so the Republic loses the war (this means we get to avoid the character assassination of later books, yay!)

Today I decided to choose pain and decided to watch fan edits of star wars to "Empty chairs at empty tables" and despite the angst they're all very well done.

ATLA Main Characters Hogwarts Sorting

For the main Gaang:

Aang - I think he could go into either Gryffindor or Hufflepuff. Aang is brave, and sometimes reckless, which fit for Gryffindors, but he's also very hardworking (mastered 35 pre-existing forms of airbending and invented another), and he expresses a lot of loyalty/steadfastness to his philosophy.

Katara - Again, Gryffindor or Hufflepuff. She's brave, but more cautious than Aang (most of the time--looking at you Painted Lady incident), and has a strong sense of personal loyalty.

Sokka - Ravenclaw. Sokka expresses traits that could put him in any of the houses, but despite his claims of being the meat and sarcasm guy, he ends up making the more complex battle plans of Team Avatar (also he gets incredibly happy pouring over maps), this puts him in the category of valuing intelligence more highly than a lot of his other traits. (he's also the most obviously nerdy *cough*sherlock holmes*cough*)

Toph - Gryffindor. She rebels against her parents to leave and travel the world in an obviously risky expedition that could lead to death. She's also the only person in the Gaang to jump in with two feet, rather than being obligated to do it (Aang), or getting caught up in the flow (Sokka, Katara), or possibly being in less danger joining the Gaang (Zuko).

Zuko - This is going to get me a lot of flack, but I feel as though he really fits the stereotypic Slytherin ambition (hear me out, I promise this is well-reasoned). He states that even since he was a child he knew the throne was his destiny. It is important to note that at the time he is referencing, he was second TO LAST in the line of succession. Azulon, Iroh, Lu Ten and Ozai would all have to die for him to be Fire Lord. Zuko doesn't really have the cunning down as much as some other Slytherins, but he does not lack for ambition.

For the antagonists:

Azula - Again, another controversial decision, but I'm more likely to put her in Hufflepuff than Ravenclaw despite her obvious above-average intelligence. Hermione demonstrated that if you value other traits more highly, even if you're one of the smartest kids to be sorted in your year, you get put elsewhere. Azula values her loyalty to her father (and country's goals) above anything else, including her well-being. I'm putting her in Hufflepuff for the same reasons Mara Jade (from Star Wars; loyal to a fault to Emperor Palps--you should totally check her out) is a Hufflepuff: she'll die for someone else's cause even after they're gone.

Mai - Slytherin. She leans more towards finding someone more powerful to do the protecting, until she finds something she values more highly than protection. This fits cunning more than ambitious (unless you count ambition for Zuko's hand?), but still lands her solidly in Slytherin.

Ty Lee - Despite her bubbly external appearance, Ty Lee is friends with Azula and Mai and still holds her own. She's a lot more clever than people give her credit for and the optimistic airhead persona is partially a mask--she uses it to disarm her opponent before going in to take victory. She'd either be a Luna Lovegood-reminiscent Ravenclaw, or in Slytherin for cunning.

You forgot the most obvious reason it can't be real: It has no legs!!!

On Azula burning turtleducks...

She doesn't.

That's it, that's the meta.

Of course that's not all, I have proof.

Some antis used Azula in the Spirit Temple as "proof" of her burning turtleducks because of her flashback from when she learned how to firebend.

And that's stupid.

Azula most definitely did set a turtleduck looking thing on fire. But it wasn't an actual turtleduck. You can tell by the way it's drawn.

It's laying down unnaturally and it's not trying to get up despite the fact that it should be startled by the person approaching it, especially if the person approaching it is someone that hurt it.

On Azula Burning Turtleducks...

Despite the fact that is has been picked up, it doesn't react at all, doesn't try to escape and doesn't turn to look at the person that picked it up.

On Azula Burning Turtleducks...

A new person has entered the picture and the turtleduck has no reacted with curiosity or fear caused by the new presence and motion, when other living creatures in the panel (Azula) have.

On Azula Burning Turtleducks...

The turtleduck is literally on fire and isn't making any noise of pain, it's not trying to escape, it's not writhing, it's not reacting at all. It's just sitting there like "Is it hot in here? Are you hot?"

On Azula Burning Turtleducks...

The turtleduck is making no attempts to nurse it's wounds of escape from the grip of the person that had set it on fire. It's showing no fear or pain or any emotion at all.

On Azula Burning Turtleducks...

The mother of the little monster doesn't give a fuck about the turtleduck. You'd expect a woman that wants her children to treat animals and plants with respect, would stop her daughter from harming a turtleduck. Realistically, if it was real, Ursa would remove it from Azula's hands and try to nurse it to health or return it to its mother, but she doesn't. She doesn't even care. She only pays attention to Azula, because Azula is the only living thing in the picture. The turtleduck is not real. All Ursa cares about is Azula's firebending and it's what she's disappointed at. She can't exactly lecture a kid for developing naturally, so she stays quiet. But she very much can lecture a kid on setting an animal on fire, so if the turtleduck was real, she'd be scolding Azula.

On Azula Burning Turtleducks...

To try and villainize Azula by painting her as a turtleduck burner is dumb when the turtleduck isn't even real. It's probably a toy of hers or Zuko's. Probably hers, since Ursa isn't saying anything about Azula stealing from Zuko, but it could be Zuko's too, considering we know Azula burned his toys.

She did do that, right?

Wrong, possibilities are she actually didn't.

But that's for another meta.

Anyway, Azula doesn't burn turtleducks, she only throws bread at them.

Thus proven.
