I Just Wanna Talk - Tumblr Posts
Ok so like…I’ve always been a sucker for time travel fics. Entire Gaang goes back? Great! Just Zuko? The angst is immaculate and I love it every time. Aang? Always a trip. Couples going back? The SHIPPING. The point is, time travel is the best (when done right) and I’m not ashamed to admit I’ll eat it up every time.
So I was browsing through ATLA time travel fics as you do, and I had an Idea.
We’ve all seen the Gaang time travel/dimension travel (and sometimes Azula, which is pretty fun in and of itself) but Ive never seen this done with Ozai (not to say there’s none, I just might not have found it)
Now wait. Hear me out. I hate Ozai as much as the next guy. Canon Ozai is a shit person who doesn’t deserve good things.
But.
Imagine an alternate universe Ozai who’s not such a shit person.
This Ozai makes mistakes and does more than questionable things, but at the end of the day he loves his kids and his nation. So he is VERY CONFUSED when he one day wakes up/dies and is transported to canon universe. IMAGINE. The confusion. THE ANGST. On BOTH SIDES.
No one will talk about his wife, who is apparently gone and has been for years (?????) Zuko looks…honestly terrified anytime he’s in the same room as Ozai (which is more than a little disturbing!) and Azula is…well. He doesn’t know what to think about Azula. This alternate Azula is so different from his Azula it nearly gives him whiplash the first time they interact.
So Ozai’s just shrugging and doing the same things he usually does with his kids (because even if they’re not from the same universe, they are still versions of his kids) and Zuko and Azula are just like. Extremely confused.
The day of black sun comes, and with it Zukos confrontation.
So Zukos just like, letting loose on him, yelling about years worth of pain and suffering caused by the man in front of him.
And this, of course, extremely hurts and confuses Ozai (what did alternate him do?????)
He can’t even say anything back, because these alternate versions of his children are very obviously hurt and in pain and Ozai is having a sneaking suspicion it might be alternate hims fault. So when Zuko finally lets out years worth of anger and pain on him, Ozai just sits there and takes it, numb with shock. He can’t believe a version of him could hurt family, but here they are. Zuko gets to the part about his scar and.
Ozai just can’t even respond. He’s just…extremely disturbed and horrified. By this entire conversation, actually…
So when Zuko goes to leave, Ozai doesn’t stop him. Zuko doesn’t feel safe here, and Ozai…really can’t blame him. He’s honestly very horrified and a lot disgusted by what Canon him did to both his children, and knows there’s no erasing that. The best he can do is try to mend burned bridges and salvage something out of this mess canon him made.
Idk. Just a thought.
Now I'm wondering how negotiations worked with Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon.😅
What if Obi-Wan actually kinda sucked at negotiating but always got what he wanted anyways because A) Handsome, B) flirting with everyone without even meaning to, and C) Anakin was hovering behind him threateningly smacking his fist into his other palm the whole time while glaring at whoever Obi-Wan was negotiating with
Sorry I don't answer doe but I need to stay angry. Its so much easier to let go if I'm angry.
Me to Luke
do you have any snippets of Logan telling Rafe things Luke did that you would be willing to share?
I have one that I can share!
18+ MDNI | Mentioned of abuse, child abuse, canon-typical violence and abuse.
“What about this one?”
Logan’s head rolled from one shoulder to the other, glancing towards Rafe’s hand where he was absentmindedly stroking her hip, the tips of his fingers grazing the very thin scar that sat just to the side of her bellybutton and stretched out towards her hip.
“That was a broken beer bottle,” Logan closed her eyes, feeling Rafe’s fingers trace the mark, “when I was…seventeen.”
“Luke?”
“Hmmm.” Logan stretched her legs out, feeling Rafe shift onto his side as his entire hand slid across her waist, fingers fanning out to cover the mark, “JJ got in trouble at the Stop N’ Shop. Got caught stealing something and the owner called Luke, he left work and went to pick him up, paid for the stolen shit and then hauled JJ home.”
She opened her eyes when she felt Rafe’s lips along the scar, nose dragging across it after, “How’d you get it, then?”
“He’d been out of jail for a few months,” Logan lifted a hand to slide it through his hair, pushing it back and off his forehead, “so he was on edge, basically threw JJ inside the house. I was just about to head to work when they came in. I can’t remember how the bottle got broken—I think he smashed it against the counter, but he had JJ against the wall and I tried to get in the middle of it and ended up getting sliced.” Rafe’s eyebrows furrowed and Logan ran her finger across the space between them, “I’m ok now. It was just a quick in and out at the emergency room. A few stitches and a tetanus shot—told them I fell across some glass on the beach.”
“Doesn’t make it ok.”
I literally have so many things to write Ideas to idea but unfortunately I have no way to articulate what Im trying to convey and Im a tad sick of being misinterpreted constantly
So here’s the redesign of my sona the lines are kinda shit but whatever im exhausted. School is already trying to murder me via physical torture. Six flights of stairs. To get to class I have to endure a touch of the ol’ fire lung. And by that I mean I am very close to death by the time i reach French. I dunno, my brain isn’t braining, its too busy telling me to commit acts of violence. Someone tell me what to do, literally the next thing in relation to any of my projects someone tells me to do I’ll do.
Also this book exists
In case ya’ll are struggling with your cat.
