Zhao - Tumblr Posts
Okay so I have...a craving. I have that song Hellfire from The Hunchback of Notre Dame stuck in my head and with the resurgence of atla fandom it has brought back a fic idea I had. Feel free to do what you want with it.
So basically Zhao is Frollo (the guy who sings Hellfire) and Zuko (because of course it's about Prince Zuko) is Esmarelda. It's still set in the atla universe but now Zhao is just a little bit more of a creep about our favorite Prince.





















Saw this frame on a different reblog by @thatssroughbuddy but why does it look like Iroh is using his phone to take a photo of his nephew at a landmark
❝ god you look good like this. ❞ (zhao)
ele tinha mesmo falado aquilo? os olhos da hook se ergueram um tanto confusos e ela ficou encarando zhao como se tentasse desvendar se ele tinha falado mesmo ou era alguma invenção da sua cabeça. ❪ assim... do nada? ❫ não que ela não fosse acostumada com elogios, ela adorava eles, mas tinha sido pega desprevenida até porque não via nada demais em seu cabelo levemente bagunçado e úmido por causa do banho, a pele avermelhada por causa da agua quente ou o rosto sem maquiagem, pra pior não era muito estiloso um blusão apenas para dormir ainda assim ele estava a fitando de um jeito estranho, mas não era ruim e o corpo de jade cintilou um pouco sabendo que com certeza tinha sido uma péssima ideia inventar de dormir com ele. havia um silencio um tanto sufocante e ela queria mesmo fazer alguma coisa, talvez agarrar o rosto dele e lhe dar um beijo mas em vez disso riu, talvez de nervoso? de qualquer forma iria disfarçar como podia agindo como de costume. ❪ eu fico bem de qualquer jeito, qual é? eu sou uma hook! ❫ ela piscou pra ele antes de morder o lábio inferior tentado conter a provocação que queria escapar: but i look better naked...
The Lost Prince
This is what happens when you think too much :,)
ok but au where Zuko is the lost Prince? Kind of like Rapunzel but not really? He's born as a Prince but around the age of 9 he goes missing after an Earth Kingdom ambush on the Kingdom. Since then, Ozai has sent out many Search Parties to find him but no luck.
don't know, but maybe Zhao ends up raising Zuko? BECAUSE MAYBE HE'S THE ONE THAT TOOK HIM?
I have an idea but I can't put my finger on it, can someone give me ideas?


This is continuation of this thread with great ideas that inspired the art: Post
Zuko hasn't (yet??) blocked Azula, not even temporarily
Iroh's photo is blurry because OF COURSE
Zhao keeps editing his stuff
I debated placing "Ozai: Seen" but it turns out he probably wouldn't even be looking at this social media
Please help me name this lame Fire Nation social media for boomers
Zuko's "On a quest" status is pure copium
Next part
Crackfic Idea:
30-year-old Zuko gets randomly flung back in time to his 16-year-old self. For a couple of hours at a time. At the most random times imaginable. Imagine the potential.
Zuko assumes that it's a dream or a vision, but definitely not real. He tries not to freak everybody out too badly, but he's also fully enjoying himself and seeing all of his friends as their young selves.
ZUKO, as he and Aang circle each other at the South Pole: I've spent years preparing for this encounter. Training, meditating. You're just a [Spirit Shwoop Sound] ... baby Aang!
AANG, confused: Well, more like preteen Aang. How do you know my name?
ZUKO, looking around: Wait, where are we?
AANG: Um... this is the-
SOKKA: Don't answer him! He's trying to get information out of you. You can't give away our location!
KATARA: Sokka, he's standing in the middle of our village. I think he knows.
ZUKO: We're here? This is so weird. I was just here for the Annual Penguin Race.
AANG: THERE'S AN ANNUAL PENGUIN RACE?!
ZUKO: Well, yeah, it was your idea... you gave a whole speech about cross-cultural cooperation and friendship, but I know you just wanted to go penguin sledding with a bunch of people...
AANG: Well, I-
SOKKA: Stop giving him more information! He already knows about the penguins!
Everybody else is confused, bewildered and even befuddled except for Iroh, who assumes that it's Spirit Shenanigans™️ and just fully accepts that his nephew likes tea and hugs and Pai Sho sometimes while being his usual shouty surly traumaball self at others.
ZUKO, stepping into the cabin: Hi, Uncle. I brought you some ginseng. How about a game of Pai Sho?
IROH, tearing up a little: I would love that, my nephew.
ZUKO: I wish we could do this more often, but you live so far away...
IROH, mentally calculating that he lives exactly three doors away from Zuko, and nodding sagely: The rat-viper may never climb the mountain that a hog-monkey can, but the monkey does not know what lies underneath it.
ZUKO, sighing sadly: I know, Uncle. I do appreciate my position in life, even if it has disadvantages.
IROH: Hmm. Your move, nephew.
The crew of Zuko's ship is terrified by the fact that whenever it happens, Zuko is somehow even more hyper-competent, seems to be weirdly calm about everything, and most unnervingly of all, he's polite.
SOLDIER: Here is a report on the best teahouses within three days travel of our current location, Sir. And, uh, Commander Zhao sent a messenger hawk.
ZUKO: Excellent. Thank you very much, Sergeant. I think we can ignore whatever Zhao has to say. In reply, I want you to send him a list of the most famous officers in Fire Nation history, and point out that none of them had sideburns. I want to see if he shaves them.
SOLDIER, sweating nervously: O-of course, Sir.
As a matter of fact, the whole fic could just be Zuko trolling Zhao. It would be glorious.
ATLA fanart for @ssreeder
You can read his/her fanfic C:
Tarot card fanart. I wanted a non-standard one. I was completely out of my comfort zone. The Zhao deck expresses the evil of the fanfic while the cruel change and pain of the boys. It was going to be 4 decks but I managed to fuck up the other two.(ಥ_ಥ)
