Summary: I'm really not sure about this one, guys, but I decided just to get over myself and post it. Please tell me if it doesn't work. I wanted to give Tseten a happier ending, and I wanted to work out some thoughts I was having about how she

It felt right that she wasn't the same as before.

Hm, Lee tastes a lot like Zuko. I don't know if I'm simply affected by the fact that he canonically used it as a covername...

[thewaterbandit]

Noo, that was deliberate! Lee is a lot like how I'd imagine Zuko as an adult- stubborn, a touch over-dramatic, but willing to learn from his mistakes (and his name comes from Piandao's 'There's a million Lees'. It's obviously like John in the Fire Nation or something :p).

OH MAN. The Air Nomad-tan is the thing that most unsettles me about the concept of Avatar Nations--I have a problem with likable characters being unequivocally dead--but this definitely helps. WRITE MORE OF THIS UNIVERSE.

[thewaterbandit]

The Air Nomad-tan is this big thing that hangs over the concept, definitely. I couldn't in good conscience bring Tseten back exactly as she was- she represented something very specific that wasn't there any more, and like I say in the fic, it'd be like undoing what the Fire Nation did. But I liked the idea that someone like her would come back when Aang had sufficiently rebuilt.

I'm glad you want more! I really need to examine the other nations. I feel like I've neglected them.

I like this, very much, especially the mood of the piece-- bittersweet but ultimately very hopeful. Favorite part is probably the beginning (the second paragraph! So good.) and the way you deal with characterizing these nations/beings. You should totally continue with this concept, as limitless as the possibilities are! (You must write fic of Lee interacting with Zuko someday, you must.)

[thewaterbandit]

I'm thrilled you liked it, especially because I was so iffy about it myself. Sometimes it's best to just step back and accept other people's opinions, I guess (especially when they say nice things :p)

Lee meeting Zuko would probably create an infinite emo feedback loop. Not that they probably haven't already interacted, I mean Zuko is royalty and all-

Oh no. Azula.

[_solaeris]

Yeah, when it comes to Zuko and Lee, I foresee opportunities for both terrible angst and lulz. Which always happens when you put two people with a penchant for dramatics together!

When it comes to Azula: DDD:
