I wonder about reincarnation in the Avatar universe beyond the Avatar – since effectively we assume that anyone who doesn’t transcend and become pure spirit (like Yue and Iroh did) reincarnates, but the Avatar is special because there’s the ability to know who’s the reincarnation (since that person is the Avatar), and there was the access to past lives the continuity of Raava provided (and will provide again for Korra’s future reincarnations). But everyone else reincarnates too.
It was a truth in the original series bible that never came up on screen, that Momo was the reincarnation of Monk Gyatso. I assume he spent the 100 years reincarnating into various animals at the Southern Temple to wait for Aang. My headcanon is that that soul, deeply tied to the element of Air, is now Jinora in Korra’s time.
A thought occurred to me on Azula, if she isn’t still alive somewhere in Korra’s time. What if what her soul needed above all else was a second chance? Not peace, not punishment, but a second chance to not go down the path she went down in her life as Azula. And so she was reincarnated into someone doted on by a father who would craft her into his weapon, just like before, but when her father’s darkness revealed itself, this time she could choose “No” and not follow him into the infliction of suffering on others – and that’s just what Asami did.
holy shit

I’ve just come to the realisation that Hermione Granger probably memory charmed her parents and packed them off to Australia long before she told Harry and Ron she’d done it at the beginning of Deathly Hallows.
She literally never goes home from Goblet of Fire onwards, spending her summers with the boys instead. In GoF she’s remarkably blase about her teeth, something her dentist parents would have noticed and felt hurt about.
If I were to guess, I’d say she probably did it after the wizarding world cup when she’d seen exactly how the wizarding world treats muggles and decided not to let that happen to her folks. Hermione knows which way the wind is blowing and gets in early. She’d be more than capable of doing it.
…Oh my God.
Turned in my last undergraduate workshop piece today.
It’s gay fluff that I’m pretty sure my prof is going to hate, but you know what? I want the last undergrad thing I write to be gay fluff. It’s the note I want to end on.
FOR ALL AO3 WRITERS
YO DUDES!
Looks like AO3 fanfiction is being stolen and sold as e-books.
Please go to Ebook tree and look for your fanfiction.
Everyone please check! My fanfic has a relatively small hit count so I figured I’d be safe, but some of it was on here.

Grey’s talk below the cut
- I can’t believe they’re finally calling an episode “How to Save a Life”
- If they waste the title I will be v. mad
- It’s not a season finale so I think they will
- (I think it would be cool if they used it to kill Derik off not because I have anything against Derik, just it would be a BIG THING and I think the show is unbalanced having him but not Cristina as far as Mer’s relationships go)
- I’m still mad Maggie is not ace, when she talked about the divide between her and other people re:dating I started crying and then she was just like “I’m weird BUT TOTALLY HET AND ALLOSEXUAL” and I’m being a baby over it and holding a grudge
- HOWEVER I am also trash and excited to see how she and Alex develop
- (I think Alex and Jo stagnate each other)
- I’m glad Stephanie isn’t going to Boston, I like Stephanie and I think they’re on their way to giving her the story lines she deserves
- I want new love interests for Callie and Arizona, but ideally it would just be OH LOOK LIKE 5 NEW LADY-LOVIN-LADIES AND ALL THE REST OF THE LADY CAST HAS REALIZED THEY ALSO LOVE LADIES, WHAT WILL HAPPEN? rather than the inevitable “look here is one lady-lovin-lady I wonder which of the whole TWO others she will end up with?”
- They cut off a dude’s penis twice in one episode
- twice
- why
- I have serious nostalgia for the first two seasons now
- my friend in nursing yesterday was like “what if I fall in love with a patient?” so I was like “don’t cut the LVAD wire”
- I miss Cristina
- I don’t really have a current favorite character, and I think that’s why I’m less interested. I love love love Callie, but it’s not the same way I love Cristina. I need someone to step up.
- Why was Maggie not ace
- or bi
- at the beginning of the season I was like “MAGGIE AND AMY” and my mom was like “no amy is straight. she’s gonna get with owen” and she was right and I’m sad
- what if Alex/Maggie and Jo/Stephanie
- that Alex/Maggie stuff was out of NOWHERE, but I like it
- even as I lose interest I have to admit I will never stop watching this show. goddamn it seventh grade me was staying up the extra hour worth getting hooked on this for life?
- staying up an extra hour was pretty cool in seventh grade, even if it was to watch stuff with your mom, so maybe
