MAI Used WITTICISM.

I just love the moments when Zuko acts younger than his age due to his severely stunted social skills.  like when he’s acting like a bratty preschooler while being gently bossed around by iroh in ba sing se or when he’s trying to socialize with the gaang for the first time.

I mean, let’s be real: Zuko has been starving for the attention of his peers for years, and once he gets his first dose of social approval and acceptance on his field trip with aang, he ends up going a bit off the rails chasing the high of Friendship.  like he’s trying SO HARD to be Just A Normal Guy here, but he waaaaay overshoots his mark and ends up going all the way back around to “something’s a litttttle off about this dude” again.

I can’t get over how Zuko, when confronted with the mystifying quandary of how to make friends for the first time in his socially-deprived adolescent life, draws an absolute blank and, with no actual hands-on experience to draw from, simply defaults to “imitate Uncle.”

Zuko’s thought process immediately after joining the gaang was clearly: “I really want these people to like me.  Uncle would say that I should just be myself and show them the real me.  but that will never work!!  I’m not likable!!!  …but Uncle is.  everyone likes Uncle.  obvious solution: just be Uncle and everything will be Fine,” and then proceeded to give his best imitation of iroh down to the tea and bad jokes.

Zuko after possibly the world’s worst punchline delivery: “This is great! I’m going to get a good grade in Being Uncle, a thing that is normal to want and possible to achieve!” 

“nailed it”

au where Zhao survives to see Zuko become Fire Lord and in their first meeting after the fact Zuko’s like “I am the leader of a nation and I will be a mature adult and I will not insult you BUT MY FRIENDS CAN, SOKKA GET IN HERE” and he makes Zhao stand there while Sokka roasts him for like an hour

trans dudes and their useless cis boyfriends

Lol I have a baby zuko au in the works where he angers a spirit who says if he acts like a child so he should be one and the crew thinks hes gonna be a brat but hes really sweet and kind until he accidentally breaks something and cries begging not to be hit and the crew and iroh are ready to commit treason for this baby

Lieutenant jee becames papa jee and basically adopts zuko lol

Baby Zuko AU’s are honestly amazing because whether or not he has memories of being a teen changes the whole ass dynamic he has. Because actual baby Zuko is the absolute epitome of a well-behaved child who would do anything to make sure people are happy, but teenage Zuko in a child body is the one who’s like “I can trick them- wait they’re nice and don’t know... I’ll enjoy this a bit longer” and then never actually does shit because he’s getting positive attention from people.

Also, the crew finding out how bad Zuko had it as a kid because of his reactions to breaking something (likely inconsequential) is absolutely perfect.

Also, Jee gets a kid and the rest of the crew is just like, “This is fine.”

I’m just so in love with the idea that Zuko and Katara refuse to let their kids be mostly raised by nurses & maids, so instead their kids go to meetings with them until they’re old enough to watch themselves.

They end up getting really good at multitasking: feeding/burping/changing/etc. all while being able to talk about policy and whatnot (and yes, sometimes they talk about taxes in a baby voice to entertain the infant).

Zuko and Katara got into a habit of calling each other cringe pet names out of spite when they're enemies to make each other angrier. And no one understands why.

"Oh, it's you sweetheart" she said with a sultry voice, but there's also a subtle hint of anger lies underneath her tone. She uncaps her waterskin and smirks.

"Hello again, darling" Zuko says, teasing her but his voice's also full of hatred.

They run towards each other and their battle cries mingle.

Toph wonders whether they were gonna end up make out or shredding each other in pieces.
