You Do Always Come Back!

[rionaleonhart]

Why, hello, Toph! I haven't yet seen enough of you to make a judgement, but it's nice to meet you at last.

'ZUKO ALONE' MAKES ME SO SAD. But wee Zuko may be the cutest thing ever to grace my television screen. Bless him! (I think I said 'OH, ZUKO' about five times during that episode. Zuko! I adore you! COME TO MY HOUSE; I PROMISE I WILL LOVE YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE. THERE WILL BE ROOM FOR YOUR CHOCOBO SOMEWHERE, I AM SURE.

...'Chocobo' sounded like a horrible euphemism there, but I can assure you it was not.)


I totally started singing 'Gotta Go My Own Way' from High School Musical 2 at the end of 'Avatar Day'. I'm sorry. I couldn't help myself.

'I need to find my own way.'
'OH, I'VE GOT TO MOVE ON AND BE WHO I AM...'


Have I mentioned how incredibly pretty Avatar is? Because it is. It's absolutely beautiful. Also, it has eight billion fighting scenes, and somehow they never get boring. I have no idea how it has managed that, because fighting scenes usually bore me senseless.

(I just realised I was absently singing 'Secret tunnel, secret tunnel...' to myself. Hooray! I think this is something I shall now have to do every time I go through anything remotely tunnel-like.)


This time, when I opted to restore the entry draft, what appeared was 'So, if a Zoombini knew Waterbending...'

I am not sure where I was going with this, but I suppose the Titanic Tattooed Toads stage would be a lot easier. In fact, if the Zoombinis had a Waterbender, an Earthbender and an Airbender in every team, very few of the stages would be a problem.

Of course, now I am thinking about what Zoombini Katara, Aang and Toph would look like. Airbending Zoombinis totally have propellor feet. Katara, Aang and Sokka would all have blue noses; Toph would have a green one. Zoombini Zuko has a red nose. I suppose Zoombini Zuko would find disguising the fact that he is from the Fire Nation much more difficult than non-Zoombini Zuko. (EDIT: And I have just realised that Zuko's scar would totally translate to cyclopism, were he a Zoombini.)




INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE REAL THING, I THINK YOU'LL FIND.

I should not be this fascinated by the idea of Avatar characters as Zoombinis.

Hoorah! You have finally met Toph! Soon you will understand why everyone worships the ground she walks on!

Toph does take a bit of getting used to, I thought she was a complete brat at first but then she grew on me.

And how awesome was Sokka's detective work?

Also, I don't know whether you're watching Avatar on television or through downloading, but you have to see the three Avatar shorts they made!

School-time shipping (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUuUOOBIvK4) in which there is a prom at the school where the chibi characters go to!
Bender Battle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RoB3ZzwFS8) where everyone argues over which elemental bending is the best.
Swamp Skiing Throwdown (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZidjMBvh9vo) in which Sokka fails at swamp skiing.

I'm not sure where those shorts fit in with the shows, but they're not spoilery at all, and are really just silly excuses to draw everyone as an adorable chibi. Even Zuko.

I love the fight scenes for being so, so interesting and pretty and creative with the use of bending.

IROH: WHAT ABOUT US? WHAT ABOUT EVERYTHING WE'VE BEEN THROUGH?

I actually found Avatar Day really annoying. It could have been so cool, but instead seemed... kinda dumb? And of course I do not like dumb things what are you talking about quoting High School Musical I never did that.

Oh, oh, I was so surprised by this, too! Normally they don't really even register with me to like or dislike, but here the fight scenes are one of my favorite parts of the show.

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPH. <3<3<3<3<3<3<3 x like a hojillion billion million

Avatar just gets prettier and prettier. I remember thinking it was pretty in season one, but you get to season three and then you go back to season one and you go, "...um. Budget? Where art thou?" SEASON THREE IS GORGEOUS. AND. BRILLIANT. IN EVERY WAY.

also I was so amused earlier to see your contemplation of Sokka + Iroh epic adventures, because you are very close, BUT. Soon you will learn who Iroh's TRUE, CANONICAL BFF IS. AND THEY WILL HAVE GRAND EPIC ADVENTURES TOGETHER. IN THE SEQUEL. IN MY HEAD.

Speaking of euphemisms, Secret Tunnel is the Avatar Rickroll. Except that saying you got "Secret Tunnel'd" sounds so. Yeah.

Did I mention TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPH?




Zoombinis. Somehow you always manage to revive the strangest, most deeply buried aspects of my childhood. I applaud you.
