Anonymous: Why are you trying so hard to kill off Korra? Do you not like happy lesbians? OMG, is that your secret fetish? Sad lesbians? Do you have a folder dedicated to crying lesbians in the rain?
This is the SCP-2758 slot, which I had @iamnotadamnedmonkey hold for me because I’m writing SCP-2758 and it has so much text in its Photoshopped components that if I were to lose the planned number slot I’d have to re-do a shit-ton of crap in Photoshop. So it’s a placeholder page until the article is ready, and this is its entire content:
and it’s got
ratings and discussion, the best of which is “I’m downvoting this. Too much foreshadowing in exchange of a somewhat disappointing plot reveal. I gotta say that I like well-developed monologues, but it’s too brusque for my taste.”
…Placeholder pretty much summarizes why I love the SCP wiki.
Anyway, in anywhere to a few hours to a few days from now, this post’s link will be the actual SCP-2758, so I’ll reblog it again then to talk about the skip.
The Avatar series could potentially make 2 more shows after Legend of Korra with an earth nation avatar and a fire nation avatar and I for one would not protest.
Avatar could come full circle and do another show about the next Air Nomad Avatar (someone who was different from Aang) and even another one about the next Water Tribe Avatar and so on and so forth and I would not protest.
you know how doctor who’s been around for 50+ years because the doctor’s regeneration gives the audience a fresh face, personality, and plot to keep going with? yeah, avatar has that advantage too.
The only minor issue is the series gives the impression that technology is progressing at a pace roughly comparable to our own. Given that Avatars live extended lives (Aang canonically spent most of his life-extending abilities keeping alive in that ice block so he “only” lived to be like 100 or so allowing Katara to outlive him), and given that in Korra’s era it’s roughly (emphasis on roughly) the early 20th century, the next Avatar could very easily be living in the equivalent of our future.
So… near-future Earthbender, or maybe cyberpunk Earthbender? Possibly followed by post-apocalyptic Firebender and then post-post-apocalyptic
(yes, that’s a thing) Airbender? Alternately, Firebender in space and Airbender in Space Opera.
Personally I’m not 100% sure that’s what I’d want since none of that feels very Avatar to me, but I’m sure a ton of people would love that. Also, they could go back on their implied technological advances if they wanted to, or go the High Fantasy route and slow down technological progress and blame it on magic (aka bending).
You fail to consider none of the last 5 avatars have died of natural causes at old age, since their spirits look to be 50 years of age at most. If it was just a matter of them choosing to manifest as a younger selves then why didn’t Roku?
Korra may very well pass away around the Avatarverse’s roaring 50′s, a time that could be pretty peaceful, making way for a more slice-of-life kinda story; and basically, bring me the laid-back, pompadour-sporting, biker-gang-style-team earthbender avatar, please, thank . _.
