AU Where Sokka’s High-on-cactus-juice Encounter With The Giant Mushroom Takes A Dark Turn. (Also He

❄️

Western colleagues say that it will be almost impossible to classify Russia’s actions as the genocide of Ukrainians. I must reassure you. When genocide comes to your lands, it will be easily recognisable.

It’s when everything inside you freezes from what you’ve seen, your knees go weak and you become speechless. It’s when the realisation comes that the evil committed will have irreversible consequences.

It’s when the enemy daily changes the landscape of your consciousness, and your psyche – the essence of what you are – is forced to form new reactions, habits and broken patterns of behaviour.

It’s when the scale of the catastrophe doesn’t fit in the finite box of your imagination. It’s when it turns out that the previous day’s wrath isn’t sufficient. And you realise you are capable of feeling even stronger rage towards the enemy.

This is when all life is fighting for the future.

Arcana Headcanon: M6's favorite Disney Princesses

(Because I just discovered that Dorian naturally got this very wrong and I am irritated about it. Put under the cut because explaining my thoughts got long.)

Muriel- Snow White

Actually canon as declared by the OG devs. And this fits really well! Friend to All Animals, hiding out in the woods thanks to a vain villain... absolutely works.

Asra- Jasmine

This enby is streetwise, constantly outwits his enemies instead of defeating them with brute strength, has a truly kind heart despite rumors that surround the persona he presents to others (diamond in the rough, anyone?), loves going out to see the world, has plenty of magical companions... yeah, Asra is absolutely Aladdin. So how can his favorite princess be anyone but Jasmine? (Also you cannot tell me that Asra hasn't canonically pulled the "do you trust me?" bit at one point. Or that he never wanted to take his Apprentice on a magic carpet ride).

(I saw a comment on the original about relating to Mulan as a nonbinary person, and I love that! So valid! This headcanon is not meant to counter or to dismiss this in any way. I can absolutely see Asra loving the movie and appreciating Mulan as a character as well. But I cannot see her being his favorite Disney princess. More details later as well lol)

Julian - Rapunzel

Same logic as Asra. This man is Flynn Rider/Eugene Fitzherbert. Plus he'd love Rapunzel's sunny energy, and he'd be intrigued by the healing powers (not to mention the fascinating origin behind them). Plus he will absolutely serenade his love with "I See the Light."

Nadia - Merida

Nadia would be a fan of Megara, but Megara is NOT a Disney Princess.

This one was admittedly a bit tougher to pick. My first instinct went to Tiana, since Nadia would relate to her drive and the character arc of balancing work and love. Second thought was Aurora, as Nadia has often felt like the "cursed princess" archetype herself, but that could also make her hate the character, sooo...

Anyway, I settled on Merida since she's headstrong, independent, capable, and hey, Nadia can connect to the family drama. (Plus we all know she has a certain fondness for fiery redheads.)

Lucio - Mulan

TINKERBELL IS ALSO NOT A DISNEY PRINCESS SHE HAS HER OWN FRANCHISE FFS...

Lucio's the kind of guy who would buy into all those bad faith Disney takes that led to the dumb changes they made in the live action remakes. But even if it was just at the surface level of "badass warrior who basically blows up the bad guy in the end," Lucio would love Mulan.

(And I can see Asra finding out that Lucio's favorite princess was Mulan and then changing his own favorite out of spite.)

Portia - Ariel or Moana

This is the only one that I agree with. Portia would adore Ariel. But I can see her loving Moana, too. A strong warrior in her own right who does everything for her family, goes on epic sailing adventures, has TWO cute animal companions, AND has a friendship with the ocean that basically ends up as water magic? Plus she would cry over the "I know who you are" scene at the end.

Remember the episode where the First Squad turned into animals? And I was wondering, is it possible to use the Cave of Spirits to turn an animal into a human? What would ApeTrully and Jumpy look like as humans? And what kind of animal would Mr. No Hands become?

It would certainly be an interesting and fun concept!

I feel like Apetrully would look pretty similar to his usual form, just less hairy (cause you know... humans...monkies... lol) and possibly Albino-esque? Considering his very white/red coloring. Jumpy on the other hand is a well of possibilities! Also, admittedly I drew him with white eyes at first, before i realized that he still could have black, like Lin Chung.

Mr. No Hands gives off bird energy for sure. Maybe an Albatross? Loud and very brazen. xD Or a Crane, and his crest could be same yellow color as his headband.

(sorry for low effort birds, drawing animals is hard)

Folks, friends, y’all…. esk*mo is a slur. I understand a lot of people don’t know that, I don’t want to be a dick about it, but I’ve been seeing it in fics. Wanna write “esk*mo kisses”? Just say “nuzzled noses” or something.

I’m not here to call anybody out, it’s been in multiple fics, I’m not vague posting. This is just a psa. 👍🏻

I know we’ve already read a lot of “men writing women” crap, but I am absolutely losing my mind at this passage
