Lintukodossa - Lintukoto

my ATLA au where Aang was told he was the avatar at 16, after the war has already begun, gets frozen in ice, Ozai ascends to Phoenix King, succeeds in his plan to take over the world, The Blue Spirit joins Aang first (identity still 'concealed', although Aang is 89% sure he knows who he is after a while), and now Aang must save what's left of the world.

It's far more fleshed out in my head and in my notes app, but I don't want to bore people with the small details until I can draw them out.

okay... a little nervous to post this. but this is my other au ive had for a bit. it centers around zukka (obviously) and also zuko and hakoda being mentor /student, because I think that's such an interesting concept

I read this fanfiction... I think it was called Salvage?.. I dont' remember, if you do, feel free to link it in comments. Anyway I liked the idea of Hakodas' ship taking Zuko as one of their own. au where Sokka goes with Bato in that one episode to see his father, on much better terms with Aang and Katara. tags will explain. <3

crew names since i forgot to write them in the drawing (well, i did, on the sketch layer) FROM LEFT TO RIGHT:

Nakkuyak (41), Tuuq (39), Zuko "K'eyush" (16), Sokka (16), Chief Hakoda (45), Bato (42), Tonrok (19), Se (40), Kida (31)

How To (Realistically) Make A Habit Of Writing

To clarify: Works with my autism. WORKS WITH MY AUTISM!!! I’ve been meeting my goals since I made them my New Year’s resolution! Anyway I’m so sick of all those ‘how to’ guides that don’t actually tell you what the process is they’re just like ‘just do it, but don’t burn yourself out, do what’s best for you!’ because you’re not telling me what I’m not supposed to be burning myself out over but okay, so I made my own. Hope this helps

1. Choose your fighter metric. What works better for you as a measurement of your progress; time spent writing or your word count? Personally I get very motivated and encouraged by seeing my word count go up and making a note of where it should be when I’m done, so I measure by that. At the same time, a lot of people are also very discouraged by their word count and it can negatively impact their motivation to write, and in that case you may be better off working from how much time you spend writing rather than where the word count is

2. Choose your starter Pokémon time frame. How often can you write before it starts to feel like a chore or a burden rather than something fun you look forward to? Many people believe that they have to write daily, but for some people this can do more harm than good. Maybe every two or three days? Weekly? Figure out what fits your schedule and go with it

3. Choose your funny third joke goal. Now that you’ve got your chosen time frame to complete your goal in, what’s a reasonable goal to aim to complete within that time frame based on the metric you chose? If your metric is your word count, how much can you reasonably and consistently write within your chosen time frame? If your metric is time spent writing, how much time can you reasonably and consistently spend writing within that time? Maybe 1000 words per week works, or maybe 10 minutes per day? The goal here is to find something that works for you and your own schedule without burning you out

4. Trial and error. Experiment with your new target and adapt it accordingly. Most people can’t consistently write 1667 words per day like you do in NaNoWriMo, so we want to avoid that and aim somewhere more reasonable. If you feel like it’s too much to do in such a short time frame, either give yourself less to do or more time to do it in. If you find yourself begrudgingly writing so often that it constantly feels more like a chore than something fun, maybe consider adapting things. And if you think that you gave yourself too much wiggle room and you could do more than this consistently, give yourself more of a challenge. Everything needs to suit you and your pace and needs

5. Run your own race. Don’t feel like you’re not accomplishing enough in comparison to others or not working fast enough to satisfy some arbitrary feeling of doubt. Everybody works at their own pace and slower work doesn’t mean worse work. You could be on one word per day and you’ll still see consistent results, which is still one word per day more than you could originally count on. All progress is progress, regardless of its speed

thank you for the support on my last post-- here's more from my AU which doesn't have a name, feel free to suggest a name, lol I'm bad with that.

zuko and aang after a fight with the Yuyan Archers, Zuko barely misses an arrow to the head, instead clipping the ribbon that hides his identity.

aang suspects Blue is the banished prince with a high bounty, whom he saw in a cell inside Admiral Zhao's ship at the Nrthern Water Tribe. Despite being fire nation, and quite unkind, Aang releases him from his shackles only for him to vanish when soldiers showed to recapture them both.

Katara, Sokka, Aang & Blue travel together to the Earth Kingdom. Unfortunately, Sokka is stupid.

in case u didnt see the last post, TLDR of what it is: Aang was told he was the avatar at 16, after the war has already begun, gets frozen in ice, Ozai ascends to Phoenix King, succeeds in his plan to take over the world, the Blue Spirit joins Aang first (identity still 'concealed', although Aang is 89% sure he knows who he is after a while), and now Aang must save what's left of the world.
