Welcome to c/writing!

This is a space for all kinds of discussion referring to writing. This could include the structure and style found in different types of writing, authors worth talking about, different genres, trends, etc.

This is also a space for users who wish to share their own writing for feedback. This could look like independently posting excerpts of poems/prose/plays or it could be replying to one of the writing prompt threads. Brainstorming and worldbuilding ideas are welcome too!

Ideally, this will be a community where we work together to become better writers and appreciators of writing in all its forms.

All that said, please note that Code of Conduct still applies here. Please apply content warnings where applicable and spoiler material that might be inappropriate.

But given it's not hereditary and powder guns and scifi shit was very lethal, it felt balanced. But yes, the Amon situation is never resolved, and highly hinted in the post-comics of AtLA

it is hereditary did you not notice that the people with magic always have at least one magic parent

and for example the fire nation royal family seemed very sure that their kids would have magic

Yes, but bending still pops among non benders and viceversa. But yes, royal families do eugenics

I'm not gonna say incest but I get a feeling if the ATLA was written by a more serious writer the fire nation royal family would be like the Habsburg minus the jaw.

A victim of monarchist brainwashing also. After all, one is not born a noble but made one through the system they are emplaced in.

On the other hand, we saw some identical twins in Book 1 of ATLA where only one was a bender
