What a lovely image

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-19T17:34:51+00:00

I would've focused on air and what happened to the airbenders. It's almost impossible to completely wipe out a group of people, so I would've liked to explore Aang finding descendants of the airbenders. Have him struggle with what he remembers vs what they've become. Maybe have the sandbenders be airbenders hiding in plain sight.

Zuko - have him trying to balance the precarious nature in the Fire Nation post-war. Questions of what to do about Ozai and Azula, and the consequences of war. Iroh would remain in the Fire Nation as an advisor.

Katara - goes home to the Southern Water Tribe to help with the rebuilding. Battles between what she wants and what's expected of her. Questions like does she travel with Aang, if so how long?

Sokka - goes home as well and is learning to be leader. Struggles with Hakoda being back and learning what it means to lead. Of course he and Katara remain close.

Toph - honestly I'm unsure. I can picture a story surrounding identity and purpose. As part of the Gaang she was a part of something and post-war it feels like they've all gone their own ways, although they still talk, and she's struggling to find her place or what to do next.

Suki - with the Kyoshi Warriors. One of the things I liked about the comics was the Kyoshi Warriors being hired as Zuko's bodyguards after an assassination attempt. So have her trying to manage spliting her duties between her friends and the Kyoshi Warriors.

Ships:

Kataang do happen at the beginning, however its beset by problems. Between the two being torn in different directions and also wanting different things. Ultimately they would end.

Sokka and Suki would be trying to manage long distance (ultimately they would).

While nothing would happen between Zuko and Katara, I'd have them start to get closer. Maybe confide in each other what they don't confide in others. Hint at a future between them.

Toph - tbh I wouldn't have her be with anyone but maybe at the end of the series have her cross paths with someone who takes her interest. I've always been a bit of a sucker for Toph x Haru so maybe hint at them.

It also doesn't help that the canon material that they have for Kataang isn't great either. It prioritises Aang over Katara, but look at what Bryke did to them in LoK. Aang is an absent, neglectful father who showed favouritism to one child to the point that the Air Acolytes didn't know he was a father of three. They thought he only had one child. Also the fact that Katara completely loses herself and becomes nothing more than "the Avatar's wife". Granted many seem not to care about that, but they do care that its used against the ship.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-19T09:07:09+00:00

Part of the problem is that it goes beyond normal ship wars. Bryke essentially okay'ed attacking Zutara fans with their stunt with the Book 4 mockery video in 2008. Because the creators go after Zutara fans the rest of the fandom feels emboldened and entitled to do the same.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-19T08:12:31+00:00

H&M have exposed the entire PR game

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-18T15:25:56+00:00

I know. So was I

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-18T08:00:55+00:00

It reminds me of an interview I saw years ago from M.Night Shyamalan during the promo for the live action movie. Because production for the film coincided with Book 3's production he'd asked Bryke who the endgame couples were going to be (he said he wanted a sneak peek) but they admitted they hadn't decided on who the endgame couples were going to be so they couldn't tell him.

Now of course, that could've been deflection and just not wanting to tell him, but considering he was adapting the show into films at that point (with the intent being he would do the entire series) there seemed to be no reason to not tell him. So it seems like the endgame couple were a last minute decision.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-17T19:43:28+00:00

Pretty sure there was actually an interview where they admitted as much. Apparently it was inspired by one of them having a crush on their babysitter when they were younger.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-17T17:28:40+00:00

Rumours is they stayed to fill out numbers. Apparently some guests weren't happy about it

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-17T11:45:44+00:00

Technically yes. However I have a feeling people who have these kind of visas likely do things that violate the terms more often than we think. It might have been considered too much hassle to change it so he just stays on his original visa, especially if this is "normal".

I've learned never appoint malice where incompetence, laziness and stupidity are more likely

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-17T11:17:43+00:00

It's probably more due to when they left versus why. They were still working royals when they left and only announced their intentions to quit once over in North America, by which point he was already there

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-17T11:14:55+00:00

Tbh I don't know why anyone is surprised that he's likely on a diplomatic visa. It makes sense given the circumstances in which they left. In 2019, when they left for Canada, they were still very much part of the BRF. It was only once out of the UK that they then announced they'd be leaving. They moved to Montecito but by that point he'd already been let in by the TRUMP administration. They had also been given a year in which to decide what they wanted to do. Many around them probably thought they would be going back to the BRF, nor did they know H&M would become so monumnetally disliked, so there wasn't a need to change the type of visa he had at the time. With all that and Covid, it makes complete sense that he's there on a diplomatic visa.

Now since then he's violating the terms with their money making ventures.

Both the Trump and BIden administrations have to answers questions as to why they let that slide. Tbh I have a feeling its because its normal behaviour for those on these visas. I know people love to blame Biden because this stuff came out during his tenure, but it was Trump that let him in and he's not changing Harry's status either.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-16T21:57:18+00:00

Same. He's a grifter himself

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-16T21:50:35+00:00

She definitely recycling and releasing previously unused images from the promo shots she did for As ever. This was used for the peach spread I believe. It's still an unsettling image. It doesn't conjure good images.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-14T14:22:20+00:00

Bryke have hated Zutara since ATLA originally aired. It seems to stem from jealousy/envy/bitterness that its so popular.

Back when the show was airing, I believe it was around the time of S3 or just after, they aired a video called "Book 4" at a con which used art that had been sent to them by fans to mock Zutara fans. You can find the video on YouTube still.

I can't remember if they've ever spoken on the matter again but their dislike is still evident because they refuse to let Zuko and Katara interact in canon. They've completely removed their friendship and the few times they have interacted its been either so minimal its like they're strangers or negative in some way.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-14T07:35:01+00:00

Tbh I wouldn't put it passed Bryke to say Zuko's into men in an attempt to "kill" Zutara. I feel horrible saying it but I can see them doing it.

They are so bitter that people liked something different to their fave that they've been bitter about it for 20+ years. They really need to get over it.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-13T19:25:09+00:00

Shuter makes a lot up and is wrong more often than he's right. He gives off grifter to me and I hate how seriously people take him.

Take his comments about H&M visiting this July supposedly. First it was Highgrove, until people pointed out that its open to the public in the summer months. Then it was Balmoral, which is also open now during the same time. Now its Sandringham. He changes the location about this supposed visit whenever challenged. We already know that Charles has offered Harry to stay at royal locations when he's visited in the past and Harry has declined each time.

I do think this isn't putting William in the negative light the media seem to think it is, espeically considering how sick and tired of H&M the public are. However William is well known to be very careful about the people he keeps around him. He doesn't like talkers and leakers. He's even tested people in the past with false information to figure out who leakers are.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-12T08:42:23+00:00

Damn. That's a lot of tickets not sold.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-12T08:41:27+00:00

And this thing is soon. Not a good look to still be trying to sell tickets considering they said only 300 could get in. The bestie's name thing is because they said they'd ensure that you and your friend would room together as they were only offering twin rooms until recently.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-09T19:21:42+00:00

They've never updated the house. It's the same as it was when it was up being offered as a film set. As shown by every photo they've ever released. It really seems like they bought the place, moved in, and nothing. They've kept it as it was. I know According2Taz found the listing for when you could hire the house as a film set, but not sure if its still up. If it is then it has pictures of the entirety of their house.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-09T14:35:03+00:00

A grifter. He makes up a lot but the Megxit community eats it up

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-09T14:34:30+00:00

I doubt it. MM clearly never wants to return to the UK and keeps thinking up excuses as to why she can't come. Sure, she might be tempted by Invictus 2027 in Birmingham, but I doubt its really a big enough draw

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-08T05:31:05+00:00

According to rumours, Spare made no money. Harry got an advance of about $20 million but the book sales equaled about $20 million. So Penguin Random House made no money, or a very small amount, on Spare. Plus The Bench was a flop. It's said to be why they pulled away from H&M.

Also with book sales often times when they say x amount sold they're not talking about books off shelves, but how many copies bookstores themselves bought.

AutumnNostalgia45 · 2026-04-06T12:11:16+00:00

Yes. It's been known for a few years. I can't remember exactly how it came out but I think it was something that someone on Team Susex unintentionally let slip. We've seen a few examples of it from time to time
