It expands the entire width of the house, so there's plenty of space down there - there was more than enough for Lori to throw a party down there. All it contains is the washer/dryer, a small utility sink, the fuse box, and the furnace. It's not like they need to store anything down there, they use their attic and sometimes the garage for that. So why not finish it and expand the living space of the house? Section off the furnace into its own room and swap the utility sink for a nicer one and you've got another hangout spot that gives everyone more room to breathe while reducing conflicts over appliances. Lincoln and the Dawg Squad could play video games there, and someone like Leni or Lola could watch their shows without having to fight for the living room TV.

Just a random though, but it'd be a neat idea to add a new backdrop to some of the house scenes, while simultaneously utilizing the most neglected part of the house.

Besides, if they can afford a bomb shelter and crazy space lasers, why not a house renovation? :)

A bit of an outsider, but this came up in a conversation so I wanted to hear an answer from the fans themselves! I know Chorus Kids had a lot of historical demand,and Karate Joe's been doing very well on polls nowadays. But I've seen people argue that Joe was "passed up for a reason", and that a "shiny new" Groove pick like Yu or Little Miss Reeds is way more likely. So who would you hope to see rep the series if it only gets one slot in an upcoming Smash 6?

I know Slippy's supposed to be a bit childish, but he wasn't even shown playing with them. They're just kinda there.

Had a great discussion with someone on X about this, and it ended up being a very fascinating bit of Alternate History! Say that Katara and Sokka ended up in a different spot on their fishing trip that one fateful day?

How it affects the rest of the ATLA Cast and historical events within the series:

- Katara and Sokka have no reason to leave the Southern Water Tribe with no Aang around, and more than likely never see Hakoda again.

- The Kyoshi Warriors likely never leave Kyoshi Island to help in the war effort, though even if they did this won't matter for Azula's disguise tactic for reasons listed later.

- Zuko remains on a wild goose chase for the rest of his life. Iroh likely passes away out on the water with him - no way Ozai or Azula lets them come home. Zuko likely gives into despair.

- Toph possibly breaks away from her parents at some point on her own after they discover her Earth Rumble activities. She's either raised by one of the other earthbenders (The Boulder and Hippo had no grudge against her outside of that misunderstanding that she and Aang were scamming the entire rumble, which with no Aang doesn't happen) or strikes it out on her own and lives in obscurity.

- Azula inherits the throne of Fire Lord while Ozai becomes The Phoenix King. Possibly still has her mental breakdown (her friends would likely still betray her, and what kicked off her instability in Into the Inferno was Ozai's insistence that she stay behind and run The Fire Nation while she assumed they'd do the comet invasion together) and leads a very unstable and unpredictable rule, especially when Ozai eventually dies and she more than likely inherits the Phoenix King role. If she has any children they will continue the cycle of harm/family dysfunction that Sozin started.

- Jet never lets go of his extremism and likely destroys more than just that one Fire Nation town.

- Bumi still gives up Omashu when the Fire Nation comes knocking on the door, though his neutral jing one-man reconquest doesn't last long with the rest of the Earth Kingdom gone and with nobody able to stop comet-powered Ozai.

- Zhao successfully executes his Siege of the North with nobody for the Ocean Spirit to "possess" to create Koizilla. With the Moon Spirit's death, Waterbending is no longer possible. Zhao becomes a military legend and likely accompanies Azula on the Drill operation. And with nobody to stop the drill, Ba Sing Se falls and Kuei/Long Feng/the Dai Li are either executed or imprisoned (if the latter two don't flee the city first). There's no need for Ozai's Angels to disguise themselves to trick Kuei.

- With no Sokka to break his trust, Wan Shi Tong never takes his knowledge back, and the library is still accessible.

- Momo lives and dies as what is likely the last of his kind.

- Acclaimed Earth Kingdom playwright Pu-on Tim never graces us with his magnum opus, The Boy in the Iceberg.

- With the threads of time forever changed and muddled, it butterfly effects Korra's entire cast into nonexistence. Republic City is never founded as a compromise between Earth Kingdom natives and the Fire Nation citizens who have lived there for a century.

What would Aang's Adventure be like once he was finally awakened?:

- With a much more technologically advanced world-spanning Fire Nation ahead of him, he likely gets a severe case of future shock. He's still prioritize Appa over using automobiles.

- The Fire Nation is in control of the whole world. Surrounded by a new cast, Aang's story would become a sort of "rebels in the shadows" type of scenario, with this version of the Gaang constantly on the run.

- The Order of the White Lotus (if it survives) would be a primary ally, as would any disgruntled vassals of the Fire Nation. Azula clearly didn't keep her composure and would've likely pissed at least someone off during her descent into madness, and thus it's likely that the Fire Empire under Azula wasn't as stable as it was under Ozai. Really depends on how good her kids are at picking up the pieces.

- Sozin's Comet came and went, so there's no time crunch for Aang to learn Earthbending or Firebending.

- The World's oceans would have an increased fire navy presence, even without the need for a blockade, making Aang's first contact with Avatar Roku all the more difficult to get to.

- Bending masters and teachers would likely be much MUCH more difficult to come by. It's possible that he'd have to go straight to the source and learn Earthbending/Firebending straight from the Badger Moles and Dragons respectively. If The Sun Warriors are still around, it's likely that they play a larger role in the story, unless Aang runs into a less self-loathing Jeong Jeong-esque figure during his travels.

and that's all I got! What do you think would've happened?

It's clearly his KD design, but even in PS2 KD he looks way better than this. The head patterns are also dofferent and his gold chain is missing.

The Emperor's Chambers don't have the same feel and don't have any windows either
