My freshman year of college i had a professor that, on the first day of class, said to a student “oh, your name is Flutey? And youre a flute performance major? What a cruel trick played by god” and i still think about it
Sokka and Zuko getting married technically makes both of them Fire Lord and Chieftain of the Southern Water Tribe so I’m dead certain that sometimes when they’re bored they just switch places for a while
Royal advisor person: Fire Lord Sokka how should we handle this socioeconomic issue
Sokka, who’s used to running a village of five huts and one snowman: …..can I phone a friend
Young Tonraq: Chief Zuko, are you listening?
Zuko, whose advisors are normally grumpy old people, absolutely not listening because he’s surrounded by eight guys made of pure water tribe beef: Of course I am you said we’re running out of ice
Tonraq: very much did not say that, pretty sure that Can’t Happen

i’m really over the idea that customers deserve unconditional respect from employees like nah bitch you deserve back the exact amount of respect you enter the store with. you throw a tantrum in public? you deserve to be escorted out in front of everyone and i hope it’s humiliating for you. you try to come in after close and don’t take “we’re closed” as an answer? you deserve to be told to leave and ignored. you insult the people providing services to you? you deserve to be refused service. if you don’t behave like a damn adult with impulse control and basic compassion, no one personally owes you a fucking thing my dude
I love this. Sometimes writers–especially fic writers–get a lot of flack for how physical reactions are described. You know, all the clenched fists, raised eyebrows, pursed lips jokes. BUT the truth is that in real life most of us are very good at expressing almost nothing physically, or lying very well. Blank looks, smiling believably when we’re really pissed or sad, acting excited about stuff we don’t care about; we’re experts, and writers really can’t do anything with that unless they are in that character’s head at that moment.
Characters in fiction have to be more visually expressive than people in real life are, otherwise they would be impossible to write without coming off like robots…or coming off as empty writing.
