The Kyoshi Novels Are Worth The Read If ONLY For The Brilliant World Building Of FC Yee. Most Importantly,

The Kyoshi novels are worth the read if ONLY for the brilliant world building of FC Yee. Most importantly, the extended lore about the Air Nomads.

It's so beautiful and painful to read about how the Air Nomads lived and were perceived by others before the genocide. You know that famous post that said that Sozin killed the very embodiment of fun when he killed the Air Nomads? Well, it was also so much more.

Air Nomads were beloved and considered good omens in most parts of the world. A blessing from a monk or a nun was considered a rare gift by people.

No stupid rules of hierarchy and manners applied to them. People of all ranks freely approached them without any formalities, which is huge given how elaborate the traditions and manners of the other nations were (what a breath of fresh air for them, huh?)

People would stop fighting because of the mere presence of an Air Nomad, out of respect for their teachings. Sightings of sky bison were every child's dream, and the Air Nomads always passed by with cheerful waves and smiles for them.

In the original show, we know that Aang travelled a lot as a child and had friends like Bumi and Kuzon. Imagine the happiness of a small town when a bunch of giggling bald children visited. Imagine the special (vegetarian) snacks they would have prepared beforehand for them. Imagine the absolute chaos their own children would get up to with them.

Air Nomads resolved disputes. They carried messages to far off relatives for no cost. They were the link through which all of the nations communicated. They embodied fun, happiness, and hope.

this is what Sozin killed. And it may never be fully recovered, even after harmonic convergence in LOK. Something so important will be lost forever.

it's really disappointing how people's critique of jkr starts and ends with her transphobia, and they completely ignore her blatant antisemitism, racism, homophobia, slavery apologism, sympathy for the wizard nazis, (the wizard nazi incel) snape's redemption, the villain of fantastic beasts trying to stop the holocaust, and the new game literally being a rehash of the blood libel myth.

why did kallus show up at zebs place in the modern au? its beautiful btw

thank you so much!!

so in the AU, hera and kanan are foster parents for sabine and ezra, zeb is their roommate and all three adults work at the same community center that hera runs

kallus a lawyer is sent by the gov to try to remove their foster licence (officially because kanan+hera are fake married, really because they’re political activists)

shenanigans happen, zeb and kallus end up bonding after a car accident in the middle of winter where zeb carries him to hospital

kallus becomes a whistleblower and starts leaking info on the task force run by thrawn

he gets found out, and since his phone and car and flat were all work perks, ends up without a place to stay in the middle of a rainstorm: that’s when he shows up at the ghost crew’s door, all wet and miserable
