‘Just because you are a better person today does not mean you are entitled to my presence in your life.’

- What Lin said to Suyin in my imagination to help me cope with the fact that the writers allowed this tasteless and inconsiderate reconciliation to take place. 

"Well it's not like you can just TELL the non-Water Tribe characters are poc too,you'd have to pay extra attention!"Aang is a buddhist monk,Ty Lee is named Ty Lee and Zuko literally has monolids

I still have this cap from the official Avatar site and it’s no longer updated so you can find a lot old concepts. I find it pretty strange how different the two Ursas are.

In the original animated canon (discontinued and overridden):

Ursa was originally written as a Fire Nation noblewoman who got along very well with Ozai when they were younger. She loved him dearly and her proper lady upbringing made her an ideal future princess. Fire Lord Azulon and the Fire Sages arranged a marriage between Ozai and Ursa due to their strong compatibility. Zuko recalls times his family was “actually happy” before Ozai became mad and abusive. Ursa was supposed to appear in Book Four but the entire season ended up being scrapped after Paramount bought the rights to create a three-season trilogy. They later decided to have her return in the Avatar finale but she was cut out at the request of Bryan Konietzko. Ozai’s thirst for power and control itself probably stemmed from his feelings of inadequacy when compared to his prodigious elder brother and favored son of Azulon, Iroh. This is why Zuko sparing Azula’s life and wanting to help her despite their twisted relationship was seen as a major catalyst in creating an era of peace.

In the new comics canon (considered to be official):

The new Avatar comics have changed Ursa into a lower-class theater actress who hated Ozai and was forced to marry him as a part of a eugenics experiment the Fire Sages believed in. Their relationship is never shown to be happy and is like absolutely nothing you could call a “perfect match”. Ozai was always power hungry and abusive. He never cared for his family members unless they were of any use to him. Ursa has remained in love with her childhood friend Ikem for years and marries him after she runs away from the Fire National Capital. She asks for help from a spirit known as the Mother of Faces to erase her memories, change her face, and give her the name “Noriko”. She later has a daughter called Kiyi with Ikem (who likewise was given a new face and the name “Noren”). Zuko meets Noriko and she decides she must confront her past and became Ursa again. Her youngest daughter, Kiyi despises this change as she has only known Noriko and not Ursa all her life. Azula is grief-stricken with the fact that Ursa had a good relationship with her half-sister and never with her.

you notice in the live action from what we can see of Ursa in this that she has a diffrent hair style and hair jewley. This is how i headcanon Ursa now with all those hair assories, as they were gifted from Ozai.

Neil perry should've used that gun on his dad there i said it.

azula's strange charisma is genuinely hysterical to me. she's a genius constantly cracking witty one-liners. she has the verbal intelligence to run circles around you. she has an innate personal charm that demands you look at her.

she also cannot interact with people on a person-to-person basis at all. she has no idea about normal social cues outside of court. cannot hold a regular conversation without somehow insulting and/or playing a mind game. has not one clue about speaking to people her age. she's a literal walking contradiction. incredible

This one started as a screencap redraw and then this happened. 

no because I deserve to enjoy the things I love..right?
