Defender of the Faith 

I came up with a fic to go with that line after all! I’m going to put this up on ao3, but because it’s being a butt at the moment I’ve put the whole thing here too. Warning: this will give you a serious, serious case of the sads. It bummed be out incredibly while I was writing it.

Sometimes Tenzin feels as if he is simply an empty vessel in the shape of his father, waiting to be filled. He stands at the altar, silent, his brother and sister beside him. Katara hides her face in her hand and sobs.

Aang teaches him the rituals before he dies. There is no-one else.

Avatar: baby, you’re my forevergirl by ~Minuiko

uuooohw <3

viria:

obsessed? who told you that??

I am not obsessed with Avatar. not at all. not even a tiny bit.

here comes quite a grown up Kataang.

coloured this one.

make sense of our past…and you will bring peace and restore balance in the world

Are You There, Aang? It’s Me, Korra 

You can blame flutiebear for this one!

A silly ficlet, because Avatars and romance don’t really mix. Also, I’m putting all my Legend of Korra ficlets (including this one!) in one thing on AO3 entitled ‘Tales From Republic City’ for ease of perusal! Apologies for any inbox spam this causes.

“You know,” says Aang, as the winds of the spirit world catch at his cape and ruffle through his beard, “I kind of expected the first time you talked to me would be for something a little more… Important.”

“This IS important!” Korra aims a kick at a spectral rock, which skids across the swamps in a satisfying manner. “I don’t know how to make Mako like me and now Bolin hates me and it’s all weird!”

Aang rubs the top of his head thoughtfully. It’s certainly not official Avatar business, but there was a time, he knows, when he could have used some advice on this himself.

“Did you take this Mako fellow penguin sledding?”

Console by ~Giftieat

More ME/ATLA AU (Artifact I guess) 

At the village the kids cluster around Aang like it’s Christmas. For most of them, he’s the first alien they’ve seen outside of the Extranet, and none of them, not even Gran-Gran, have ever seen any alien quite like Aang.

“He really is a Prothean, isn’t he?”

Katara sits with Gran-Gran in the shelter, watching Aang learn how to throw snowballs with the children. Gran-Gran shrugs.

“He may well be. When I was a girl I read all I could about the Protheans- even went to an Asari university to pick their brains for my thesis.”

Gran-Gran chuckles, recalling her youth. It’s a sad sound. “You always loved my Prothean stories.”

Katara vs zuko

Looks like I won’t be able to do any writing tonight because historymother thinks 6.30 on a Friday is a wonderful time to go grocery shopping ):

Have some Katara instead. Katara is pretty much my favourite female character in A:TLA (possibly my very favourite)- and while this fight isn’t as impressive as her showdown with Pakku, it’s still fantastic.
