Chapter Summary: Suzie Sterling has just had an otherworldly encounter
with her literature teacher, and is supposed to meet up with her
apparently magical grandpa to figure out just what the heck happened and
why he went missing for so long.
Gonna make up my own side of the Force called “The Side That Fucks” because the light side won’t let you have a relationship but the dark side won’t let you value anyone besides yourself, so obviously using the force while being in a loving, committed relationship requires its own side for some fucking reason.
It’s called “The Side That Fucks” instead of “The Side That Loves” because I also want the light and dark side to look shitty and lame by comparison, because they are.
Light side is definitely the worst one because they won’t even let you have platonic familial relationships. If you become a jedi and ever worry about how your mom is a slave on Tatooine you’re basically doomed to become a Space Hitler, and Yoda will remind you of that fact every time you speak to him. At least the Sith can have, like, a Father/Son business, although dad will expect his son to murder him eventually (and be proud of him when he does because, y’know, no healthy relationships for Sith, either he kills you or you kill him).
Rules for The Side That Fucks Force Users:
1. Don’t be a dick
2. The compassion you have for your loved ones should be extended to all people
3. Freedom is the right of all sentient beings
4. Every The Side That Fucks user gets to have at least one cool alien monster as a mount
5. No Force power is off limits so long as you subscribe to rule 1, there’s no reason shooting lightning from your fingertips should be inherently evil
6. Every thursday you gotta cook a porg with force lightning, trust me it’s delicious
7. Just practice some self restraint, it’s not that fucking hard
Zuko going into an angst coma because he made the right decision.
That moment when you make so many bad decisions in life that your body thinks it’s a virus when you finally do the right thing.
More like: When your father has told you that everything you’ve done is wrong and that one time you thought you were in the right he burned off half your face and banished you, so you start going into panic mode when you’re right for once because you’re mentally bracing yourself to experience violence again.
Oh
#GODS YES THANK YOU #like ok yes all the ‘lol zuko fell into an angst coma cause he did the Right Thing’ jokes are funny #but so many people obviously don’t look beyond that #to the underlying trauma #which is WHY he goes into an angst coma #his body just fucking shuts DOWN #the last time he followed his conscience his father brutally mutilated him #the last time he allowed himself to make a compassionate decision he was LITERALLY MAIMED #of COURSE he’d struggle with being reminded that he’d just done something that #if his father witnessed it #would’ve gotten him horrifically hurt #again #by someone he loved and trusted
