This user supports the Dai Li with all his heart because they were a group of total ninja earthbenders that are just so, so amazing. They didn't get the screen time or elaboration they deserved. A great backstory of them is portrayed in Silent Hero in Emerald. The Dai Li were still awesome even if they did brainwash a bunch of citizens. Please take note that Minnichi and this user are awaiting the day that everybody else comes to their senses and agrees with them. :P
This user supports the Water Tribes with all of his heart because the people of the Water Tribe are amazing ninjas with amazing architecture in the North.
This user has waterbending the amazing abilities to control water and finds it awesome when someone does a waterspout or some professional move.
Hi there! Welcome to my userpage! I'm WaterbenderTaikai, but you can call me Taikai for short if you want. I am a huge fan of the Avatar series and I am quite active on this wiki. I am more than happy to help you out if you ever need it. I am also the mainspace deputy editor of The Ba Sing Se Times and I can help you out with just about anything that has to do with our newsletter. :)
I obviously love waterbending and the Water Tribes (Southern, Northern, and Foggy Swamp). (Go waterbenders!) I have been a fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender for a long time. I watched the whole series on DVD in less than eight short days. I now love The Legend of Korra and never miss an episode. I rewatch episodes online a lot if I have time. I also love the Dai Li after reading a great fanon, Silent Hero in Emerald (I'm the most crazed avid fan). :)
I know, I know. It's a little weird. So here's the story. I read online that "taikai" means "the big ocean" in Japanese, and because it had a "k" in it, I made it my waterbender name. That's that. Though there has been some confusion on how to say the last part of my name, so here you go: "Ty-kai". The 'kai' is said as though you robbed it from 'agni kai'. Okay? We good? Yeah, we're good. :)
So most people write their "Wiki story" describing how they got here and such. I'll do it, but it's not that interesting. Once upon a time... I stumbled across the wiki. I had bookmarked it, but never made an account. Once LoK started I came here again, commenting as an anon. Then I finally made an account on May 26th, 2012. Super fascinating, right?
I became a rollback on July 10th, 2012 after Acer kindly nominated me here. I gladly accepted and 888 gave me the rights several minutes later.
Currently, I am writing Marionette. The plot is described here if you are interested. You can start reading with the prologue and updates are here.
I have another fanon, Parentless. It follows the adventure of Mako and Bolin after the murder of their parents. Read the first chapter, here.
And though I don't know if it counts as 'fanon', I'll put it here anyway. I entered Minnichi's Writing Contest with this battle that I wrote about The Boulder and an original airbender. Don't know if you're interested.
Silent Hero in Emerald – I am in love with this fanon. The first time I read it, I was so hooked that I was up for a while and read the first 8 chapters. Minnichi writes so amazingly. She can conjure up great emotion and deep, deep chapters. One of my favorite fanons! :)
I have my favorites, you have yours. I completely respect your opinions, but I have my favorite ships.
This user completely ships Kataang because they were the best couple to ship since the moment Katara opened up that iceberg. It's also CANON! Kataang forever.
This user ships Maiko because they were a great couple, each helping the other with their problems. And don't forget that Zuko loved it when Mai hates the world.
This user ships Sukka because he loves when they would say "Do you remember this?".
This user ships Pemzin because it would be weird if Lin and Tenzin married. Toph's kid and one on Aang and Katara's kids marrying? Did I just type the last sentence?.
"Hmmm...it's 12 years into the 21st century. I wonder when somebody's going to invent a way to "beam" small objects from location to another."
―ARGspeaking on the matter of poor technological advances. :)
"KMP, we have to do something about Minnichi. The girl has suicidal tendencies. Constantly talking about death. And ovens. And fires. Perhaps she's possessed."
―Lady Lostrisnotifying KettleMeetPot of Minnichi's thoughts (which was all LL; note: this is a true story, IRC)
"What would Uncle do? Zuko, you have to look inside yourself to save yourself from your other self. Only then will your true self reveal itself. Even when I'm talking like him I can't figure out what he means. What would Azula do? Listen, Avatar, I can join your group, or I can do something unspeakably horrible to you and your friends! Your choice! I guess I'm not that good at impressions."
— Zuko practicing talking to Team Avatar in The Western Air Temple
"The Boulder's over his conflicted feelings, and now he's ready to bury you in a rock-alanche!"
— The Boulder taunting Toph in The Blind Bandit
"I don't have sob stories like all of you. I could sit here and complain how our mom liked Zuko more than me, but I don't really care. My own mother thought I was a monster...She was right, of course, but it still hurt."
— Azula reminiscing on the only sob story of her's in The Beach.
This user dies everytime Tenzin 's head changes color. He also thinks that Tenzin is not a bad teacher.
This user cheered on Asami when she confronted her father and kicked his sorry little butt.
This user thinks that Hiroshi was pretty smart to make Asami take defense classes, but was a decision he probably regret after "The Aftermath". Another decision he most likely regrets: being an Equalist and A HORRIBLE FATHER.
This user thinks Lin was a great chief of police and shouldn't of quit even if Tarrlok was being a dirtbag. He also thinks she is a great metalbender and was so happy when she got her bending back from Korra. Thanks a lot, Amon, you really helped.
