I can see this subreddit in 5 years time being a hub for uni, a level, as level and apprenticeship students and js young ppl in general. Post 16 is far less specific than 2028 a levels so we will have input from many ppl. It might even become a place where students abroad can ask queries. Also, when are we getting the OG flair 🥺

Im glazing

Would you rather:

. Have your normal GCSE schedule?

Or

. Have a schedule where you only do 3 of the exams per week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) but the exam season starts earlier and you end up spending more time having to revise each test?

My favourite ATLA season is defo season 2 because of the Ba Sing Se arc and other peak episode episodes such as The Blind Bandit.

My favourite TLOK season is season 3. It is so peak to see a group of villains that are all skilled benders and they are my personal favourite villains in the whole franchise. The story is also great and it shows real loss on Korra's side just like Aang's in season 2 of ATLA whcih allows for a great redemption arc in season 4. I wish we had more seasons or a 20 episode season with the Red Lotus as the villains.

I just thought of something:

What if Unavaatu hadn't completely destroyed Raava before consuming her and then Korra gains Raava back but Raava hasn't been destroyed to the point where all avatar connections were destroyed. What if Korra could connect to some avatars from thousands of years before. I think that could've been very useful as we learn about new avatars and Korra still has a level of guidance. Some of their guidance wouldn't be as specific to the time as avatars such as aang but I feel it would've been nice to expand the world.

In a scene where both of them look about 50, Roku hangs Sozin on a pole and tells him to give back the colonies or he will not spare Sozin again. Sozin didn't close the colonies but Roku, because they had once been friends, does not kill him which I understand but he did not even try to force the closure of the colonies except from warning Sozin. He should have taken action against Sozin but I think at the bare minimum, he should have warned the other nations that Sozin wants to "share the wealth" of the fire nation.

The Earth Kingdom should have already been warned by the capture of their land for the colonies. Also, did the fire nation forces make it to their air nomad temples in advance, waiting to strike, because we are shown in the cartoon that South to North takes a very long time so imagine going from West to East to get to the Eastern Air Temple.

Also, if they did get their early, how were they not spotted on the mountainside by air nomads flying around (I guess there may be cloud cover at such high altitudes but air nomads had temples and statues and sites around the area of the main temple that would require leaving the main building which should have made them see the fire nation).

How did they get up the mountain? Aang says the only way to enter the air temples is by Sky Bison and that is why only a few outsiders had ever visited, but the fire nation obviously didn't have a herd of sky bison (they do have one in korra but I assume Sozin would have killed the sky bison after wiping out the air nomads as he had done to momo's lemur species and appa's bison species and I think that herd was discovered after the 100 years war). I guess they had dragons and could use firebending with hooks to scale it but dragons were probably limited as they were legendary creatures that probably weren't easily tamed and Sozin most likely started the hunting of them right after Roku died.

Realistically, in one hour, they wouldn't be able to kill a whole air temples worth of air nomads at each of the 4 air temples, unless they set the whole temples on fire but they didn't do that. Most of the air benders were probably all in courtyards to watch the comet as it comes only every 100 years so hey would be easier to kill but many air benders should have been able to escape if they had been on other mountains such as Laghima's peak instead of at the main temple. Apparently, remaining nomads were lured in through the use of artifacts to entice them but I don't buy this bc they would be weary of how the fire nation may just be trying to trick them.

How did the fire nation soldiers take out an entire population. I know that the fire ation soldiers were boosted but how did that give them the power as just fractions of an army to take out a whole population (granted, the air nomads probably had the least population of any nation due to being spread out over only a few locations)

I stl think Roku should have warned the four nations of fire nation attack. How did the fire nation get across earth kingdom land to get to the eastern air temple (main land mass) and southern air temples (fire nation had to cross islands such as whaletail island and kyoshi). As per my previous theory that the only way the fire nation could have wiped them out is by arriving at the air temples before the comet so the earth kingdom would have been alerted by unauthorised troops from other nations storming through their territory even tho they had no intention of attacking the earth kingdom itself. One does not just pop in on the earth king yet they can fly undetected or march with troops to wage war just in his jurisdiction. Of course the Dai li and Earth kingdom forces would try to stop this at once. However, I guess the Fire Nation could've avoided this by going the other way to the eastern air temple instead of over earth kingdom land and I guess the area around the air nation temples tend to be mountainous which could be hard ,even for earth benders ,to traverse.

I think that humans originally gained powers from the lion turtles but how did they learn how to use them? Humans then learnt how to actually bend the elements properly (as opposed to the fire bending we see that is just shooting fire) from animals such as dragons, badger moles, the moon and waves and sky bison.

However, how did these animals get bending powers?

.Moon and tides is self explanatory

.Dragons because they breathe fire and because they are mythical beasts

.Badger moles as an extension of their senses in order to see things around them

.How did sky bison get the ability to fly? The Great Guru Laghima taught them how to fly by letting go of their earthly tether but when he tried to teach this to humans he was eventually captured after 40 years of flying and burnt at the stake for accusations of witchcraft and all air-bender children were warned of this. Therefore, the only air-bender to learn how to fly since then was someone who was never an air-bender originally, someone who hadn't been warned of the accusations linked to flying.
