I couldn’t stop thinking about an Avatar Howl’s Moving Castle AU. Zuko and his fire demon. (I tried to draw this in studio ghibli style and failed lol)

Then I couldn’t stop thinking about this….

and no, I will not make Zuko blond.

Instead of a hat maker, Sokka is a watch maker?

I’m trying to cast everyone else, but it’s hard? Like, this AU doesn’t work, but I will MAKE it?

Can Uncle Iroh be Calcifer? I think I could take some stuff from the book and make Katara Sokka’s sibling and still have her be a bigger part of the story? (screw canon, I’ll do what I want. this is an au for crying out loud). Azula could be the witch of the waste, Ozai is Madam Suliman, Toph is Markl (thanks @ninu-sha​), Who is aang though??? help. maybe he’s a second ward? or he could work at the Watch shop and actually wonder where sokka is and go looking for him. Suki…who is Suki? maybe she is with Aang looking for Sokka? We can make this work. maybe I should rewatch the movie…am I getting carried away?

Let’s make Jet the f***ing scarecrow. That’ll be an interesting dynamic.

Feel free to jump in.

[Image Description: The second Image is a digital illustration parodying the famous Howl’s moving castle scene where Howl walks on air while holding Sophie. Zuko takes the place of Howl and Sokka the place of Sophie. Sokka looks horrified of the height and is refusing to walk on nothing. And Zuko is looking at him disbelievingly. There are clouds in the sky and a town is sloppily drawn below them.]
