convinced Bumi is a master trollbender :)
Just realized I’ve never drawn Tenzin kissing his own wife. That has been remedied :)
wow cuties GET ON MY BLOGWow I love the air nomad family like no other.
Congratulations on your wife and children, Tenzin.
moving past the feeling: Lin/Tenzin Unsolicited Headcanon
I really think when Tenzin they had “different goals” in life, it really meant Lin didn’t want children or at least wasn’t ready to have kids at the time.
Think about it. Tenzin got married and had kids pretty late in life. Jinora, his first born, came when he was 41, which…

sidenote: As fun as the idea is, I don’t actually think Tenzin dated Lin when they were younger because in all likelihood they grew up together and had to see each other all the time at gaang reunions and my experience is that if you grow up with someone since childhood it’s very hard to see them as anything other than siblings. And from their snippy exchange in episode 1, I feel like Tenzin and Lin definitely have more of a sibling rivalry going on. This was just an excuse to draw a younger Tenzin and Lin. ;)
Although! If Pema’s story is true, I doubt she’s the type to homewreck a happy relationship - it’s much more likely that Tenzin was involved in a relationship that made him unhappy or unsatisfied in some way, which became more than Pema could bear. /headcanon
FACT: Pema is a badass and Tenzin would be lost without her
Excerpt:
“Come here,” Pema says kindly, putting a hand on his shoulder. “I think you’re probably healed enough for a hug.” She’s warm and soft and Mako buries his head into her shoulder and breathes in deeply. Pema smells of home.

I love the idea of Pema adopting the boys
