Hmmm...
It all started with the Milliways Haiti Charity Auction, when - out of the blue - I decided to request a picture of Felix and Toph. Brain decided to take this and run with it.
Now he's got me wanting to make a whole set of these crossover pictures - Mia meeting Katara, Jenna meeting Azula, Isaac meeting Bumi, and so on. (We're not really sure who to send Kraden at, but as I'm about to demonstrate, that's fairly minor.) Then I started getting into non-party-member Golden Sun characters, and things got... weird.
The original idea was to pair people up with somewhat-equivalent people of the same element. Unfortunately, Golden Sun has a lot more air-manipulators than AtLA, especially if you include all the werewolves and possibly the Shamans. So at some point I started wondering what to do with Master Hama. Not too bad at first - she seemed ripe for a fruit-pie ambush from a pre-dead Gyatso - but then Brain latched on to something I've been trying to repress.
You see, the third season of Avatar has a character also named Hama. This fact, alone, threatened to explode my head at the time, without even getting into characterization and abilities. Even if we allow for Revealshipping, and thus the possibility that GS!Hama enjoys the full moon, I don't want to bring her into contact with AtLA!Hama. Oh, the former would doubtless win, given that there's no actual motion requirement for using Psynergy (even aside from AtLA!Hama's surprise at someone using a)wind, and b)lightning and wind), but I don't really want to snap my mind.
Ah, well. Now I just need to learn to draw, and particularly to draw the Avatar characters on-model. (For some reason seeing other people's Avatar fanart with off-model characters perturbs me unusually much.)
(How, how do I have an "avatar tla" tag and a "codex alera" tag, but no "golden sun" tag? How did I feel the need for those others but get by without the last?)
