Jokes on you i'm into that shit

Important ideas to consider when creating characters who are black and indigenous people of color. (x)

Consider that creators can make whatever the hell they want

gods, you know, sometimes i just look at katara and spend ages just thinking about what an amazing fire lady she would’ve made, like

she would already have captured the hearts and minds of the common people through her duties as ambassador, like no way would she have sat back when there were probably countless other towns and villages like the one she saved as the Painted Lady, and with the Fire Lord backing her (just as her friend, at first–it was years before they really got their shit together, which is an incredibly fulfilling story of its own), and the best way to reach the heart of a nation–to effect real change–is through its people.

the nobility took longer to come around, of course–they had the most to lose by the fire nation’s sudden 180 turnaround from a colonialist superpower to a nation bound by its own borders and dedicated to restoring all that it possibly could of what was lost during the century of war.

a lot of them wanted to kill zuko outright. the ‘new ozai society’ was a credible threat, in fact. but there always seemed to be someone watching the fire lord’s back–a trio of kiyoshi warriors, a blind earthbender, a master swordsman with a boomerang for back up, the avatar himself… or, most often, a ferociously powerful waterbender who somehow always seemed to be in just the right place at the riht time to keep him safe.

as ambassador from the southern water tribe, katara was always welcome at council meetings, and zuko often relied on her presence, as much as his uncle’s–the reparations council was a far cry from the war council it had been under his father, and as reluctant as the nobles were to give up their lands and their riches, katara had the uncanny ability to make it seem palatable, even to a group of old men unaccustomed to being forced to give up all that they’d unjustly seized.

sometimes.

other times, she lost her temper, and it truly was a sight to behold. (it always fell short of a true agni kai challenge, but there were a few close calls. sometimes zuko couldn’t help but picture what it would look like to see katara kick the ass of whatever former general pissed her off this week.)

by the time their relationship was official and out in the open, though, the assassination attempts had long since ceased. the new ozai society had been routed, in a combined effort by the fire lord’s friends and the commoners among which the society members had tried to hide. the people had grown to love katara, and when zuko announced his intent to marry her, he wasn’t met with nearly as much resistance as he’d once feared.

(some of the nobles still weren’t particularly thrilled, but there wasn’t much that could be done about it. and even most of the upper classes had come to admit a grudging respect for the fire lord’s policies, as well as the growing united republic of nations that had sprung out of a few of the former colonies.)

katara never stopped fighting–for justice, for her friends, for peace, for her husband–and, in time, she became one of the most well-known and best-loved fire ladies in history. she had a statue in every major fire nation city, and in several other cities across the other three nations. her marriage to zuko was one of life-long friendship, devotion, and companionship, and it was often said of their relationship that it was the best symbol for peace, harmony, and unity, that could have ever come out of the end of that horrible war.

idk i just have a lot of fire lady katara thoughts and not a lot of places to dump them, so

You forget just how great she looks in fire bending clothing, like it was meant to be

i’m just gonna say it. actors are allowed to dislike aspects of the projects that they’re apart of. and they have. harrison ford was always open about how he wasn’t the hugest fan of star wars. it’s always a big joke that robert pattinson hates twilight. matt damon hated the bourne ultimatum. it’s just a little funny to me how these men are able to critique these movies but when john boyega, a black man, does it, he’s “throwing a fit” or “ungrateful” as if it’s some miracle that he even got the role. instead of saying you’re upset with john boyega for not liking parts of star wars, just say you’re mad that a black man can have an opinion and save us all some time.

Did Harrison Ford or Robert Pattinson alienate or make fun of a part of the fanbase tho?

watching Star Wars in Mexico was so funny. when adam driver took off his mask literally like ten people in the theater said “qué feo” sooo loud

oh man, looking at the notes is a trip. if only these people defended Kelly Marie Tran and John Boyega and Oscar Isaac from racism or daisy Ridley and Kelly Marie Tran from sexism with as much fervor as they defend Adam “I joined the military for funsies” Driver.

Y'all will defend white men you’ll never meet till the day y'all croak huh LMAO

WHITE MEN! BAD! DIVERSITY! GOOD!

How did Jessica Chastain get fan cast as Clarice on all of these Clannibal posts? Idk but I love it

It’s ironic because Jessica Chastain would definetely hate the idea of Clarice and Hannibal ending together lol

Jon x Sansa - Eye contact

Jon x Sansa - Eye contact fucking

someone just commented on my old life with derek fic and now my two brain cells colliding can’t help but think JONSA LIFE WITH DEREK AU

I don't know why it took people so long to figure this out

Kit Harington after shooting his very last scene ever of Game Of Thrones

Great now i hate what they did to his character even more

I’m still pissed about endgame because they did hulk and bruce so wrong. Like I’m okay with professor hulk but i wish they didn’t show the whole thing offscreen. Like in iw it was just bruce and he was all like “we gotta talk it out buddy” and i was okay with that and i was hoping hulk would come back in endgame but noo. There was no conversation between Bruce and hulk. Professor hulk just appeared. And i hate that. There’s no real arc for him. There’s no badass scene in the final battle. He’s just there. Idk hopefully this professor hulk will lead into banner’s did being discussed???

Hulk was always too complex for the mcu anyway
