m (Spelling/grammar correction)
Line 99:
** Sokka won't let Aang forget the time the Avatar made him and Katara suck on frozen frogs when they were sick.
** Enemies and allies alike call Ty Lee "a circus freak," though her chi-blocking abilities turn out to have nothing to do with her acrobatics. Ty Lee explains to Zuko that the circus was the place where she could find herself, as opposed to being with several identical sisters all expected to act the same.
** Azula uses this to her advantage. People know that she lies, and she's such a good liar that not even Toph can tell. And when she is being honest? That's when she's at her most dangerous. Her overhearing Azulon ordering Ozai to kill a young Zuko led to {{spoiler|Ursa giving Ozai an undetectable poison to use on his father and become Fire Lord}}. She also keeps her word to {{spoiler|restore Zuko to his place in the Fire Nation royal family if he helped her in Ba Sing Se, albeit by crediting him with killing Aang after he lied to her that there is no way Aang could have survived.}}
** Book 3 has Katara hold a grudge against Zuko for a long time for {{spoiler|betraying her in Ba Sing Se. When he switches sides proper, it takes four episodes for him to earn her forgiveness.}}
* ''[[The Legend of Korra]]''
** [[Played for Drama]] in one instance; the Fire Nation has been spending the last few decades undoing the damage that started with Sozin's reign; the current Fire Lord Izumi even refuses to proactively send troops against Kuvira, reminding Republic City President Raiko that such actions were what caused the hundred-year wear in the first place. All the priests that opposed letting the Avatar talk to Roku in ''The Last Airbender''? Their successors help Korra when she suffers a bout of amnesia while seeking aid for the Northern Tribe. Sozin wiped out all the Airbenders except for Aang and the history books lie that the Airbenders had an army? An older, retired Zuko takes charge as soon as Harmonic Convergence gives many people airbending powers and supports rebuilding the new Air Nation, complete with giving Korra advice when Zaheer takes them hostage.
** Hiroshi Sato was revealed to be [[The Mole]] for Amon, giving his Equalists platinum mechas that could capture and debend the metalbending police. Then he tried killing his own daughter for turning those same mechas onto him and calling him out for being no better than the Firebenders that killed his wife. They disowned each other in that moment, though Asami ended up winning and sending her father to jail. Several years later, Hiroshi is truly remorseful on seeing how Asami had to rebuild his company from the ground up, completelycomplete with getting screwed over and sabotaged. Still, she holds it against him for a long time, especially after realizing that {{spoiler|she's fallen in love with Korra, whom Hiroshi tried to kill.}} Even when they begin to mend their relationship tentatively, with him still in jail, the new Gaang treats him warily, especially Korra.
** Mako for a long time isn't allowed to forget how he badly handled his relationships with Asami and Korra. While Asami forgives Korra for kissing Mako while the latter was dating Asami, having sussed the Avatar has [[No Social Skills]] she is mad at Mako for keeping it a secret. Book Two shows Mako's decisions getting dumber. During the Book Four recap of this, even Prince Wu calls out Mako for his idiocy.
