[@mundocalissa5121]

NOTES FROM AN AVATAR NERD Okay so Brody seems to actually have a signature move, kicking/punching a fireball, which _is_ pretty cool. Most benders have signature moves but for some reason firebenders have the most Also the Roku vs Sozin lines are cool. 0:48 Yo, I thought only Iroh could do that! Maybe he was taught by Iroh. That or hes just cracked 0:50 I know the water shield was probably helping him not be affected by the fire, but also that cutting with the hands move through the fire is actually one of Zhaou's signature moves. It's his main one its nuts. So while Bryson isn't a firebender, he grew up with a pyromaniac one, assumed to be trained by either Iroh or Zhou (I'm assuming Iroh, because both use several techniques from different elements and Iroh would teach that, and Iroh would probably teach him something that Zhaou knew as they were colleagues) that learned that move. Maybe B's a firebender with a waterbender mom/dad whose family moved into the firenation when the war started and they could tell where it was going? So Bryson just got a rare recessive trait? Or is this a Harmonic Convergence thing? Hm. Anyway the timeline is nice 0:56 Noone gonna mention that in the intro the water was feet-deep and now he can swim through it? I think Bryson's using hacks 1:04 and on, giving me Zuko x Katara (fighting not romance) at the waterbender pond spirit thing. No further explanation Sorry for atrocious spelling bye
