What's The Weirdest Thing You've Done As A Result Of Social Anxiety?

I WANTED THEM IN SUITS OKAY??? I REGRET NOTHING

As Avatar has resurged I, like most everyone else with taste, began rewatching and from the first few episodes I have to point something out,

Zhao ridicules Zuko for not successfully capturing the Avatar and it is constantly expressed that Aang is only a child. But, Aang is an air bender and uses a fighting style that hasn’t been seen in one hundred fucking years. Of course Zuko didn’t beat him, of course Aang bested him and everyone on that ship. It’s because no one knows how to fight against an Air Bender.

It’s the same concept as a MOBA coming out with a new champion. For the first few days the character is usually ‘broken’ because of balancing issues and people get shredded because, just like Aang, no one knows how to fight against them.

But as the show goes on we watch Zuko adapt, he’s a hot head but he’s also a swift learner and has developed an impeccable ability to shift his style to accommodate his opponent. The next time they meet in battle the fight takes longer because Zuko knows what to expect now.

And basically, what I’m saying is, fuck any and everyone who has ever made fun of Zuko for being beaten by someone younger than him. Aang would have beaten your ass too.

Seen this screenshotted but never the actual video. Screen shots do not do it justice.

That point in a piece of fanfiction where you can tell something embarrassing is about to happen so you start fucking around on tumblr because you’re a huge baby with a crippling overabudance of empathy.

Coming into a fandom late

Me when a customer asks me to help them find something that’s literally right next to them:

Can we all agree that despite zuko being 16, he has proven himself more capable and effective in both diplomacy, bending, and hand to hand combat then soldiers that are in their late 20's or more with decades more experience and he just mops the floor with them? Why does no one appreciate this in fics or hell just in context?

Yes, Zuko is intelligent,

an eloquent and inspiring speaker, 

a capable leader,

a skilled firebender. 

and has the Fire Nation’s best interest at heart 

These things are all true. 

however... 

He’s also an awkward dork who practices his speeches by talking to frogs, 

spent a good portion of the show in Existential Crisis Mode, 

and has an unfortunate habit of making impulsive, dumbass decisions that often risk his personal safety. 

He has the range. 

i changed my mind. sevika be upon ye.
